When Jessica marries David, he is everything she wants in a family man: brilliant, attentive, ever youthful. Yet she still feels something about him is just out of reach. Soon, as people close to Jessica begin to meet violent, mysterious deaths, David makes an unimaginable confession: More than 400 years ago, he and other members of an Ethiopian sect traded their humanity so they would never die, a secret he must protect at any cost. Now, his immortal brethren have decided David must return and leave his family in Miami. Instead, David vows to invoke a forbidden ritual to keep Jessica and his daughter with him forever. Harrowing, engrossing and skillfully rendered, My Soul to Keep traps Jessica between the desperation of immortals who want to rob her of her life and a husband who wants to rob her of her soul. With deft plotting and an unforgettable climax, this tour de force reminiscent of early Anne Rice will win Due a new legion of fans.

Famine. Death. War. Pestilence. These are the harbingers of the biblical apocalypse, of the End of the World. In science fiction, the end is triggered by less figurative means: nuclear holocaust, biological warfare/pandemic, ecological disaster, or cosmological cataclysm. But before any catastrophe, there are people who see it coming. During, there are heroes who fight against it. And after, there are the survivors who persevere and try to rebuild. THE APOCALYPSE TRIPTYCH will tell their stories. Edited by acclaimed anthologist John Joseph Adams and bestselling author Hugh Howey, The Apocalypse Triptych is a series of three anthologies of apocalyptic fiction. THE END IS NIGH focuses on life before the apocalypse. THE END IS NOW turns its attention to life during the apocalypse. And THE END HAS COME explores life after the apocalypse. THE END IS NIGH is about the match. THE END HAS COME is about what will rise from the ashes. THE END IS NOW is about the conflagration. * * * * THE END IS NOW table of contents: INTRODUCTION by John Joseph Adams | HERD IMMUNITY by Tananarive Due | THE SIXTH DAY OF DEER CAMP by Scott Sigler | GOODNIGHT STARS by Annie Bellet | ROCK MANNING CAN''T HEAR YOU by Charlie Jane Anders | FRUITING BODIES by Seanan McGuire | BLACK MONDAY by Sarah Langan | ANGELS OF THE APOCALYPSE by Nancy Kress | AGENT ISOLATED by David Wellington | THE GODS WILL NOT BE SLAIN by Ken Liu | YOU''VE NEVER SEEN EVERYTHING by Elizabeth Bear | BRING THEM DOWN by Ben H.

Octobre 1916, à Delta en Louisiane, une femme noire fait une entrée remarquée dans la ville à bord d''une limousine conduite par un chauffeur en livrée. Qui est-elle ? Les murmures de curiosité font bientôt place à l''admiration lorsque l''on sait qu''il s''agit là d''une Noire américaine millionnaire, qui a bâti petit à petit sa fortune en créant une ligne de produits capillaires pour les femmes aux cheveux crépus. De retour dans sa ville natale, Madame Walker se souvient de l''époque où elle s''appelait Sarah, avait 7 ans et vivait dans une case avec ses parents qui allaient mourir de la fièvre jaune. C''était en 1874, au printemps... C''est en s''inspirant de documents rassemblés par l''écrivain Alex Haley (auteur de l''inoubliable Racines) qui projetait d''écrire la biographie de C.J. Walker, que Tananarive Due a donné naissance à La Rose noire, après huit mois de travail, et bien des nuits passées à dormir dans son bureau.
