In una Madrid diventata da poco capitale del Regno e pervasa dalla furia controriformistica dell''Inquisizione, la giovane Luzia Cotado, conversa orfana di entrambi i genitori, cerca di sopravvivere come meglio può, nascondendo a tutti le sue origini e, soprattutto, la sua capacità di compiere milagritos, piccole magie. Un giorno, però, la signora della casa presso la quale presta servizio si accorge del suo dono e di lì in poi la obbliga a farne sfoggio davanti ai suoi ospiti, nel patetico e disperato tentativo di migliorare la posizione sociale della sua famiglia ormai decaduta. Ma quello che inizia come un semplice divertimento per nobili fiacchi e annoiati prende ben presto una piega pericolosa perché Luzia attira l''attenzione di Antonio Pérez, ex segretario ora in disgrazia di Filippo II. Per riconquistare il favore del re, ancora provato dalla sconfitta della sua armada, Pérez decide di indire un torneo per trovare un campione che diventi l''arma decisiva nella guerra estenuante contro la regina eretica d''Inghilterra. Determinata a cogliere l''unica possibilità che la vita sembra volerle offrire per migliorare la sua condizione, Luzia si immerge in un mondo popolato da veggenti e alchimisti, bambine sante e imbroglioni, dove i confini tra magia, scienza e inganno sono tanto labili quanto incerti. Con il crescere della sua notorietà, però, aumenta di pari passo il rischio che i suoi segreti vengano scoperti. Per non finire nella morsa dell''Inquisizione, la giovane conversa dovrà quindi agire d''astuzia, accettando persino l''aiuto di un uomo misterioso temuto da tutti, Guillén Santángel, a sua volta custode di verità che potrebbero rivelarsi letali per entrambi. Nel Famiglio, Leigh Bardugo tesse una narrazione dove al racconto storico si intrecciano con maestria il realismo magico e una storia d''amore emozionante, una lettura che, una volta iniziata, difficilmente si può abbandonare.

Magie, Alchemie und ein unsterblicher Vertrauter mit einem tödlichen Geheimnis: Packende historische Fantasy voller Romantik von der Königin der Phantastik Leigh Bardugo Spanien zu Beginn des Goldenen Zeitalters: In einem heruntergekommenen Haus in Madrid nutzt die junge Luzia Cotado einen Hauch von Magie, um die endlose Schufterei als Küchenmädchen zu überstehen. Doch als ihre intrigante Herrin entdeckt, dass ihre Dienerin ein Talent für kleine Wunder besitzt, verlangt sie, dass Luzia diese Gabe einsetzt, um die gesellschaftliche Stellung der Familie zu verbessern. Dieses Unterfangen nimmt eine gefährliche Wendung, als Antonio Pérez, der in Ungnade gefallene Sekretär des Königs, auf Luzia aufmerksam wird. Pérez schreckt vor nichts zurück, um die Gunst des Hofes zurückzuerlangen. Und der spanische Herrscher ist noch immer von der Niederlage seiner Armada erschüttert und sucht verzweifelt nach einem Vorteil im Krieg gegen Englands ketzerische Königin. Luzia ist fest entschlossen, diese eine Chance auf ein besseres Leben zu ergreifen, und taucht ein in die Welt von Sehern, Alchemisten, Heiligen und Gaunern, in der die Grenzen zwischen Magie, Wissenschaft und Betrug schon bald verschwimmen. Um zu überleben, muss sie alles wagen – auch wenn das bedeutet, dass sie die Hilfe von Guillén Santangel in Anspruch nehmen muss, ihrem unsterblichen Vertrauten, dessen eigene Geheimnisse sich für beide als tödlich erweisen könnten.

Kaksitoista eturivin kirjailijaa. Yksi neiti Marple. Agatha Christien luoma legendaarinen salapoliisi ratkoo jälleen kiperiä murhia ja mysteereitä nykykirjailijoiden kynäilemissä tarinoissa. St Mary Meadin englantilaiskylässä asuu ikäneito Jane Marple, jolla on hämmästyttävä kyky ratkaista mitä mutkikkaimpia arvoituksia. Ja sitä tarvitaan: jouluillallisen keskeyttää yllättävä vieras; New Yorkissa Broadway-näytelmä uhkaa suistua raiteiltaan; laivamatka Hongkongiin käy kuolettavaksi. Uhkailu, lahjonta tai kiristys ei hätkäytä rakastettua etsivää, kun totuutta kaivetaan esiin. Naomi Alderman, Leigh Bardugo, Alyssa Cole, Lucy Foley, Elly Griffiths, Natalie Haynes, Jean Kwok, Val McDermid, Karen McManus, Dreda Say Mitchell, Kate Mosse ja Ruth Ware ovat menestyksekkäitä nykykirjailijoita. Neiti Marplen luoja, Agatha Christie, oli englantilaisen dekkariperinteen uranuurtaja ja maailman tunnetuimpia ja myydyimpiä kirjailijoita. * ”Jokainen kirjailija tavoittaa Christien – ja Marplen – hengen täydellisesti ja lisää samalla mukaan ripauksen omaa ainutlaatuista otettaan. Tämä uusi ja viihdyttävä kokoelma suosikkikirjailijoidemme kynästä koukuttaa uuden lukijakunnan mahtavaan neiti Marpleen.” Washington Post

Jane Marple is an elderly lady from St Mary Mead who possesses an uncanny knack for solving even the most perplexing puzzles. Now, for the first time in 45 years, Agatha Christie’s beloved character returns to the page for a globe-trotting tour of crime and detection. Join Marple as she travels through her sleepy English village and around the world. In St Mary Mead, a Christmas dinner is interrupted by unexpected guests; the Broadway stage in New York City is set for a dangerous improvisation; bad omens surround an untimely death aboard a cruise ship to Hong Kong; and a bestselling writer on holiday in Italy is caught in a nefarious plot.

»Den bästa fantasyroman jag läst på åratal. Omöjlig att lägga ifrån sig.« Stephen King »Oerhört spännande och beroendeframkallande.« Lacrimamens »Mörk magisk realism med inslag av mord och mysterier. Går knappt att sluta läsa.« Bokkoll Galaxy »Alex« Stern växte upp i utkanten av Los Angeles med sin hippiemamma, upptäckte tidigt att hon hade en förmåga att se övernaturliga väsen, hoppade av grundskolan utan fullständiga betyg och trädde in i en skum värld av droger och missbruk. Tjugo år gammal, som enda överlevande efter ett blodigt morddrama, får hon vid sjukhussängen plötsligt en andra chans: Att börja studera vid Yale, ett av världens mest prestigefulla elituniversitet, med alla avgifter betalda. Men vad är haken? Varför just hon? När Alex anländer till Yale får hon i uppgift att bli övervakare av universitetets åtta hemliga sällskap och deras egendomliga ritualer, en uppgift som ett av sällskapen, Lethe, ansvarar för. Tanken är att Alex ska bli upplärd av sin handledare, Darlington. Men när en ung kvinna hittas död på universitetsområdet samma kväll som sällskapen utför sina magiska ritualer har Darlington försvunnit i ett mörkt hål, och Alex står ensam kvar. Hon är övertygad om att det finns ett samband mellan mordet och de hemliga sällskapen. För hon vet nu att de ägnar sig åt långt märkligare och mer skrämmande saker än vad någon kunnat föreställa sig... LEIGH BARDUGO [f. 1975] är en amerikansk författare. Hon fick sitt genombrott med Grisha-trilogin som har sålt i över 3 miljoner exemplar världen över.

Jesper non smetteva un attimo di tamburellare le dita sulle cosce. «Qualcuno ha per caso notato che l''intera città ci cerca, ce l''ha con noi o vuole farci fuori?» «E allora?» disse Kaz. «Be'', di solito è solo metà della città.» Kaz Brekker e la sua banda di disperati hanno appena portato a termine una missione dalla quale sembrava impossibile tornare sani e salvi. Ne avevano dubitato persino loro, a dirla proprio tutta. Ma rientrati a Ketterdam, non hanno il tempo di annoiarsi nemmeno un istante perché sono costretti a rimettere di nuovo tutto in discussione, e a giocarsi ogni cosa, vita compresa. Questa volta, però, traditi e indeboliti, dovranno prendere parte a una vera e propria guerra per le buie e tortuose strade della città contro un nemico potente, insidioso e dalle tante facce. A Ketterdam, infatti, si sono radunate vecchie e nuove conoscenze di Kaz e dei suoi, pronte a sfidare l''abilità di Manisporche e la lealtà dei compagni. Ma se i sei fuorilegge hanno una certezza è questa: dopo tutte le fughe rocambolesche, gli scampati pericoli, le sofferenze e le inevitabili batoste che hanno dovuto affrontare insieme, troveranno comunque il modo di rimanere in piedi. E forse di vincerla, in qualche modo, questa guerra, grazie alle rivoltelle di Jesper, al cervellone di Kaz, alla verve di Nina, all''abilità di Inej, al genio di Wylan e alla forza di Matthias. Una guerra che per loro significa una possibilità di vendetta e redenzione e che sarà decisiva per il destino del mondo Grisha.

"The best fantasy novel I’ve read in years, because it’s about real people... Impossible to put down." —Stephen King Enter a mesmerizing world of power, privilege, and dark magic among the Ivy League elite in the first book in the Alex Stern series. Goodreads Choice Award Winner Locus Finalist Galaxy “Alex” Stern is the most unlikely member of Yale’s freshman class. Raised in the Los Angeles hinterlands by a hippie mom, Alex dropped out of school early and into a world of shady drug-dealer boyfriends, dead-end jobs, and much, much worse. In fact, by age twenty, she is the sole survivor of a horrific, unsolved multiple homicide. Some might say she’s thrown her life away. But at her hospital bed, Alex is offered a second chance: to attend one of the world’s most prestigious universities on a full ride. What’s the catch, and why her? Still searching for answers, Alex arrives in New Haven tasked by her mysterious benefactors with monitoring the activities of Yale’s secret societies. Their eight windowless “tombs” are the well-known haunts of the rich and powerful, from high-ranking politicos to Wall Street’s biggest players. But their occult activities are more sinister and more extraordinary than any paranoid imagination might conceive. They tamper with forbidden magic. They raise the dead. And, sometimes, they prey on the living. Don''t miss the highly-anticipated sequel, Hell Bent.
