New Releases by Rick Yancey

Segona part de l''espectacular trilogia èpica «La cinquena onada». Després de la cinquena onada... Els Altres busquen supervivents al mar infinit. La Cassie Sullivan i els seus companys han sobreviscut a les quatre onades destructores dels Altres. Ara que la raça humana està pràcticament exterminada i la cinquena onada ho arrasa tot, s''enfronten a un dilema: esperar l''Evan Walker o bé fugir per buscar d''altres supervivents abans de caure en mans de l''enemic. Consumits, però no derrotats. Assetjats, però no sotmesos. Ara ja no és una guerra d''humans contra alienígenes. És la lluita de l''esperança contra la desolació. De la fe contra la por. De l''amor contra l''odi. I la humanitat és el camp de batalla. Saben com penses, saben com matar-te. Creuen que no tens cap oportunitat. Però no saben... que no estàs sol.

De Vijfde Golf komt eraan, en de mensheid staat aan de vooravond van totale vernietiging. Cassie, Ben en Ringer overleefden de eerste vier Golven en staan voor een moeilijke keuze: wachten tot Evan Walker terugkomt, of op zoek gaan naar andere overlevenden vóór de vijand hen te pakken krijgt. Want dat er een nieuwe aanval komt is onvermijdelijk. Cassie en haar vrienden zullen de ultieme strijd moeten aangaan tussen hoop en wanhoop, leven en dood. We hebben de eerste vier Golven overleefd. We houden vol, maar de overwinning is nog ver weg. We hebben hoop, maar worden door haat verteerd. Ze denken dat we zwak zijn. Maar we zijn niet alleen. #oneindigezee

Flesh-eating danger abounds in the chilling sequel to The Monstrumologist that is “as fast-paced, elegant, and yes, gruesome as its predecessor” (Publishers Weekly, starred review). While Dr. Warthrop is attempting to disprove that Homo vampiris, the vampire, could exist, his former fiancée asks him to save her husband, who has been captured by a Wendigo—a creature that starves even as it gorges itself on human flesh. Although Dr. Warthrop considers the Wendigo to be fictitious, he relents and performs the rescue—but is he right to doubt the Wendigo’s existence? Can the doctor and Will Henry hunt down the ultimate predator, who, like the legendary vampire, is neither living nor dead, and whose hunger for human flesh is never satisfied? This second book in The Monstrumologist series explores the line between myth and reality, love and hate, genius and madness.

El primer llibre d''una espectacular sèrie èpica. Després de la primera onada... la terra es queda a les fosques. Després de la segona onada... només fugen els afortunats. Després de la tercera onada... només sobreviuen els desafortunats. Després de la quarta onada... ja no pots confiar en ningú. A l''inici de la cinquena onada, la Cassie fuig per un tram d''autovia desolat. Fuig d''ells. D''aquells éssers que, malgrat el seu aspecte humà, deambulen pel camp eliminant a tothom, dispersant i aïllant els escassos supervivents. La Cassie sap que l''única manera que té de continuar viva és seguir estant sola. Sense confiar en ningú. Fins que troba l''Evan Walker, un jove enigmàtic que sembla capaç d''ajudar-la a trobar el seu germà. Ha arribat el moment de prendre una decisió definitiva: confiar-hi o perdre l''esperança, desafiar o rendir-se... Abandonar o lluitar. Els hi han pres tot allò pel que val la pena de viure. I ara volen tot allò pel que val la pena morir.

A monster-hunting doctor and his apprentice face off against a plague of monsters in the first book of a terrifying series. Publishers Weekly says “horror lovers will be rapt.” These are the secrets I have kept. So starts the diary of Will Henry, orphan and assistant to a doctor with a most unusual specialty: monster hunting. In the short time he has lived with the doctor in nineteenth-century New England, Will has grown accustomed to his late-night callers and dangerous business. But when one visitor comes with the body of a young girl and the monster that was eating her, Will’s world changes forever. The doctor has discovered a baby Anthropophagus—a headless monster that feeds through a mouth in its chest—and it signals a growing number of Anthropophagi. Will and the doctor must face the horror threatening to overtake and consume the world…before it is too late. The Monstrumologist is the first stunning gothic adventure in a series that combines the terror of HP Lovecraft with the spirit of Arthur Conan Doyle.

A nuestros héroes les queda una única salida: rebelarse. Por su parte, Isabela, Caleb y Ran deciden dar caza a los miembros de la Fundación que siguen en libertad. Para ello, unen fuerzas con sus antiguos enemigos, Einar y Cinco. Pero, cuando una nueva amenaza aparece en su camino, el grupo se ve penosamente superado.

This fast-paced, action-packed adventure—which is set in the world of I Am Number Four—is perfect for fans of the Darkest Minds series and the X-Men franchise. After the battle in Switzerland, the Fugitive Six find their allegiances torn, dividing them into two factions. Taylor, Kopano, and Nigel return to the Academy with Nine, but nothing is the same. As fear and resentment of the Human Garde continues to grow, the United Nations decrees that all humans with Legacies must be implanted with inhibitors. So our heroes will have no choice but to rebel. And with the Foundation still at large, Isabela, Caleb, and Ran have decided to join forces with their former foes Einar and Five to hunt them down. But when a new threat is revealed, the group may find itself painfully outmatched. Facing capture or annihilation from all sides, the only hope the Human Garde have for survival is to stand together once and for all to fight back against their true enemies. Return to Zero is the epic conclusion to the story of the Garde.

La segunda parte de la espectacular trilogía épica La quinta ola. Después de la quinta ola... Los otros buscan supervivientes en el mar infinito. Cassie Sullivan y sus compañeros han sobrevivido a las cuatro olas de destrucción de los Otros. Ahora, con la raza humana prácticamente exterminada y la quinta ola arrasándolo todo, se enfrentan a una elección: esperar a Evan Walker o huir en búsqueda de otros supervivientes antes de que el enemigo los alcance. Consumidos, pero no derrotados. Acosados, pero no sometidos. Esta guerra ha dejado de ser de humano contra alienígenas. Es la lucha de la esperanza contra la desolación. De la fe contra el miedo. Del amor contra el odio. Y la humanidad es el campo de batalla. Saben cómo piensas, saben cómo matarte. Creen que no tienes ninguna oportunidad. Pero no saben... que no estás solo.

Hur förgör man hela jordens befolkning? Man berövar människorna deras mänsklighet. I Den femte vågen kämpade Cassie för att hitta sin lillebror. Hon lyckades, men striden mot De andra är långt ifrån över. Cassie, Ben, Ringer och de andra måste fortsätta kämpa mot en osynlig fiende. Men en sak är säker: De andra kommer inte att ge upp förrän hela mänskligheten är utrotad.

Cassie har överlevt de tre första faserna av en utomjordisk attack. Hennes föräldrar är döda och lillebrodern tillfångatagen. Nu flyr hon för livet, hon flyr från De andra. De andra ser ut som människor, men de har ett uppdrag som de sköter med kallblodig perfektion - att döda alla de ser. Cassie har valt att inte lita på någon. Hon vet att ensam är stark inte bara är ett utnött uttryck, utan det kanske enda sättet att hålla sig vid liv.

Comment débarrasser la Terre de ses sept milliards d''habitants ? Retirez aux hommes leur humanité... Cassie Sullivan et ses compagnons ont survécu aux quatre premières vagues destructrices lancées par les Autres. Maintenant que l''espèce humaine a été presque entièrement exterminée et que la 5e Vague déferle sur la planète, le groupe se trouve face à un choix : se préparer à affronter l''hiver en espérant le retour rapide d''Evan Walker, ou se mettre en quête d''éventuels survivants avant que l''ennemi ne referme sur eux son impitoyable piège. Personne ne peut prédire à quels abîmes de cruauté les Autres sont prêts à s''abaisser, ni à quelles hauteurs l''humanité saura se hisser. La bataille finale ne fait que commencer... Ils connaissent notre manière de penser. Ils savent comment nous exterminer. Ils nous ont enlevé toute raison de vivre. Ils viennent maintenant nous arracher ce pour quoi nous sommes prêts à mourir. Le deuxième tome de la trilogie phénomène, adaptée au cinéma par Tobey Maguire et les producteurs de World War Z, Argo, Hugo Cabret, Aviator, Gangs of New York, Ali.

Die erste Welle brachte Dunkelheit. Die zweite Zerstörung. Die dritte ein tödliches Virus. nach der vierten Welle gibt es nur noch eine Regel fürs Überleben: Traue niemandem! Das hat auch Cassie lernen müssen, denn seit der Ankunft der Anderen hat sie fast alles verloren: Ihre Freunde und ihre Familie sind tot, ihren kleinen Bruder haben sie mitgenommen. Das Wenige, was sie noch besitzt, passt in einen Rucksack. Und dann begegnet sie Evan Walker. Er rettet sie, nachdem sie auf der Flucht vor den Anderen angeschossen wurde. Eigentlich weiß sie, dass sie ihm nicht vertrauen sollte. Doch sie geht das Risiko ein und findet schon bald heraus, welche Grausamkeit die fünfte Welle für sie bereithält ...

Di notte, Cassie non può più guardare il cielo stellato con gli stessi occhi di prima; ora sa che loro arrivano da lì, da quegli astri luminosi e distanti, e arrivano per distruggere il suo mondo. Cassie è tra gli ultimi superstiti, sola, in fuga da loro, esseri mandati sulla Terra per sterminare la specie umana: l''unica speranza che le resta è ritrovare Sammy, il fratellino che le è stato strappato dalle braccia. Quando il misterioso Evan Walker si offre di aiutarla, Cassie capisce che deve prendere una decisione: fidarsi o rinunciare alla sua missione, arrendersi o continuare a lottare. In un''avventura che mescola la suspence de La guerra dei mondi e l''azione di Io sono leggenda, Rick Yancey narra l''avvincente lotta di una giovane donna determinata e temeraria.

In the fourth and final horrific adventure in the award-winning Monstrumologist series, Will Henry encounters unprecedented terror, a terror that delves into the depths of the human soul. Will Henry has been through more than seems possible for a boy of fourteen. He’s been on the brink of death on more than one occasion, he has gazed into hell—and hell has stared back at him, and known his face. But through it all, Dr. Warthrop has been at his side. When Dr. Warthrop fears that Will’s loyalties may be shifting, he turns on Will with a fury, determined to reclaim his young apprentice’s devotion. And so Will must face one of the most horrific creatures of his monstrumology career—and he must face it alone. Over the course of one day, Will’s life—and Pellinor Warthrop’s destiny—will hang in the balance. In the terrifying depths of the Monstrumarium, they will face a monster more terrible than any they could have imagined—and their fates will be decided. “Beyond a simple finale, this is a brave statement about the duplexity of good and evil, and the deadly trap in which all of us are snared” (Booklist, starred review).

Soms denk ik dat ik de laatste mens op aarde ben. Dat betekent dat ik de enige mens in het universum ben. Dat is onzin, ik weet het. Ze kunnen niet iedereen gedood hebben nog niet. De eerste golf: de wereld wordt gehuld in duisternis De tweede golf: als je geluk hebt weet je te ontsnappen De derde golf: als je pech hebt overleef je De vierde golf: er geldt nog maar één regel vertrouw niemand Nu de vijfde golf eraan komt, is Cassie op de vlucht voor Hen, de wezens die er menselijk uitzien maar het niet zijn. Zij die het land doorkruisen om eenieder te vermoorden die ze tegenkomen. Cassie gelooft dat er maar één manier is om te overleven: door alleen te blijven. Maar dan ontmoet ze Evan Walker, de verleidelijke en mysterieuze vreemdeling die haar enige hoop is om haar vijfjarige broertje te helpen bevrijden. En haar enige hoop om zelf te overleven. Maar Cassie moet kiezen tussen vertrouwen en wanhoop, tussen verzet of overgave. Tussen leven... en dood. De vijfde golf, dat al maanden op de Amerikaanse bestsellerlijsten staat, is een meeslepend, aangrijpend en episch verhaal over verlies, ondenkbare dilemma''s en moed. #5degolf
