New Releases by Madeleine Roux

An all-new official prequel novel to Shadowlands, the next expansion for Blizzard Entertainment’s legendary online game World of Warcraft “The Horde is nothing!” With those infamous words, Sylvanas Windrunner betrayed and abandoned the Horde she vowed to serve. The Dark Lady and her forces now work in the shadows as both the Horde and Alliance, including her own sister, Alleria, race to uncover her next move. Struggling to shoulder the crushing weight of leadership, King Anduin entrusts the void elf and High Exarch Turalyon to uncover Sylvanas’s whereabouts. The Horde now stands at a crossroads. The various factions form a council, leaving the mantle of warchief to rest. Thrall, Lor’themar Theron, Baine Bloodhoof, First Arcanist Thalyssra, and many other familiar faces rise to this new challenge. But the threats are numerous, and the distrust runs too deep. When the council is derailed by a failed assassination attempt on Talanji—the Zandalari queen and a key ally—Thrall and the rest of the Horde leaders are forced into action. They empower the young troll shaman Zekhan, still grieving the loss of Varok Saurfang, with a critical mission to aid Talanji and help uncover the rising threat against her. Meanwhile, Nathanos Blightcaller and Sira Moonwarden have been tasked by the Dark Lady with a terrifying gambit: to kill the troll loa of death himself, Bwonsamdi. As Zekhan and Talanji work to save Bwonsamdi, their journey will be a key turning point in bolstering the Horde against the coming darkness and finding themselves along the way. Failure to save their allies and the trickster god will surely doom them—but through success, they may rediscover what makes the Horde strong.

The nightmare is just beginning. Ricky Desmond has been through this all before. If he could just get through to his mother, he could convince her that he doesn’t belong at Brookline. From the man who thinks he can fly to the woman who killed her husband, the other patients are nothing like him; all he did was lose his temper just a little bit, just the once. But when Ricky is selected by the sinister Warden Crawford for a very special program—a program that the warden claims will not cure him but perfect him—Ricky realizes that he may not be able to wait for his mom a second longer. With the help of a sympathetic nurse and a fellow patient, Ricky needs to escape now.

Then Jocelyn wakes up in her room one night to the sound of screaming, and she starts to wonder if the treatments in this asylum are entirely humane. But the warden has his eye on Jocelyn—and the treatment of patients should be the least of her concerns. With page-turning chills and a shocking final twist, The Warden is a short and terrifying installment in the Asylum series that can stand on its own for new readers or provide a missing piece of the puzzle for series fans.

¿Qué había visto? Y más importante, ¿qué haría al respecto? Jocelyn podría simplemente huir y dejar todo atrás. Pero la culpa la carcomería. Había ido allí para ser enfermera. Para ayudar. Jocelyn y su mejor amiga, Madge, llegan a las puertas de Brookline, recién egresadas de la escuela de enfermería, ansiosas y emocionadas por comenzar sus nuevas carreras. Pero, desde la primera reunión con el austero director del asilo, sospecharán que su nuevo jefe será algo más que...difícil. Lo que nunca podrán imaginar es cuán siniestro será todo. Una noche, Jocelyn escucha gritos y empieza preguntarse si los tratamientos en el asilo son los correctos. Pero el director tiene los ojos puestos en ella y el tratamiento de los pacientes debería ser la menor de sus preocupaciones. Con una trama que producirá escalofríos a cada vuelta de página y un final sorprendente, El director es una pieza más del espeluznante rompecabezas del mundo de Asylum, una novela aterradora que deleitará a los fanáticos de la saga.

"Estuve dentro de su cabeza. No existe libertad en esto. No puede escapar de su propia mente". La pasadilla es solo el comienzo... Si Ricky Desmond tan solo pudiera hacer entrar en razón a su madre, la convencería de que no pertenece al hospital psiquiátrico Bookline. Allí no hay ningún paciente como él: ni el hombre que cree que puede volar ni la mujer que asesinó a su esposo. Todo lo que Ricky hizo fue perder la cabeza un poco... y solo ocurrió una vez. Pero cuando el director Crawford lo selecciona para un programa muy especial -un programa que, según el propio director promete, no lo curará, sino que lo perfeccionará- Ricky se da cuenta de que tal vez no tenga tiempo para hacer entrar en razón a su madre. Debe escapar ahora o puede ser demasiado tarde. Escape de Asylum se sitúa mucho antes de que Dan, Abby y Jordan pusieran un pie en los pasillos de Bookline. Ahora, el hospicio es realmente un hospital, no una residencia para jóvenes universitarios. Madeleine Roux cautiva a sus lectores y los lleva al límite de la locura, con una historia que los dejará sin aliento.
