City Under the Stars

release date: Aug 25, 2020
City Under the Stars
God was in his Heaven—which was fifteen miles away, due east. Far in Earth's future, in a post-utopian hell-hole, Hanson works ten solid back-breaking hours a day, shoveling endless mountains of coal, within sight of the iridescent wall that separates what’s left of humanity from their gods. One day, after a tragedy of his own making, Hanson leaves York, not knowing what he will do, or how he will survive in the wilderness without work. He finds himself drawn to the wall, to the elusive promise of God. And when the impossible happens, he steps through, into the city beyond. The impossible was only the beginning. City Under the Stars completes a journey undertaken by Gardner Dozois and Michael Swanwick 25 years ago, when they published the novella The City of God. Over two decades later, the two realized there was more to the story, and began the work of expanding it. Now, after Gardner Dozois' tragic passing, the story can be told in full.

Il libro delle spade

release date: Mar 06, 2018
Il libro delle spade
Spade e sortilegi sono sempre armi a doppio taglio. E conoscerne i segreti può significare la salvezza. O la dannazione. Ecco il filo sottile che percorre questa ricca e variegata antologia di "Sword and Sorcery" che comprende le firme più celebri e le nuove promesse del fantasy, tutte capaci di spingere il genere ai suoi estremi confini e mescolarlo al western, alla commedia nera, all''odissea picaresca. Da Robin Hobb a Scott Lynch, da Garth Nix a Ken Liu, ci addentriamo in palazzi sfarzosi e galeoni corsari, sudice taverne e tane di draghi sputafuoco, custodi di tesori inimmaginabili. A incontrare spadaccini e guerriere, ladri e regine, cavalieri impazziti e stregoni, demoni e divinità. Una raccolta che farà la gioia di tutti gli appassionati, un omaggio a J.R.R. Tolkien e Michael Moorcock, Fritz Leiber e Stephen King, da chi, grazie a loro, ha imparato a sognare e scrivere. Sedici gemme del fantastico contemporaneo, che comprendono anche una splendida e fosca narrazione di George R.R. Martin, ambientata nel mondo complesso e imprevedibile de "Il Trono di Spade", fenomeno mondiale amato da milioni di lettori. Molti secoli prima di Daenerys Targaryen, Tyrion Lannister e Jon Snow, il Trono di Spade infatti incombeva già sui Sette Regni, suscitando rivalità e bramosie. I Targaryen cavalcatori di draghi hanno imposto il loro dominio con fuoco e sangue, ma non tutti sono disposti ad accettare i loro usi, che sembrano sfidare al tempo stesso uomini e dèi. Corvi recano messaggi imperiosi. Le ombre sussurrano parole rivoltose. In segreto si affilano le spade. E anche tra i figli del Conquistatore c''è chi tragicamente vorrebbe solo essere amato, e chi invece è pronto a essere odiato e temuto, pur di ottenere ciò che vuole. La guerra incombe, ed è il momento che i draghi si alzino ancora in volo.

Caçador em fuga
Uma aventura surpreendente sobre a liberdade, escrita pelo mestre George R.R. Martin. Ao despertar num lugar escuro, Ramón Espejo não se lembra de como foi parar ali. Logo ele descobre que é refém de uma raça alienígena e que, para recuperar sua liberdade, será forçado a ajudá-los a encontrar outro humano como ele – um fugitivo. Quando a caçada começa, no entanto, Ramón recupera algumas lembranças: a miséria e as péssimas condições de trabalho e de vida no México; a decisão de deixar a Terra e explorar um novo planeta-colônia, São Paulo; o sonho de encontrar metais valiosos e enriquecer; o desejo de uma nova chance. Agora, envolvido numa estranha perseguição nesse mundo hostil e imprevisível, Ramón precisa encontrar uma maneira de escapar de seus captores... e depois, de alguma forma, sobreviver. No entanto, à medida que suas memórias se fortalecem, Ramón descobre que seu pior inimigo pode ser ele mesmo. Caçador em fuga, publicação que faz parte do selo LeYa/Omelete, é uma história criada a seis mãos que levou quase trinta anos para ser escrita. O resultado é uma aventura de ficção científica que cria mundos e espécies diferentes com detalhes fascinantes, analisando a humanidade em seus piores e melhores momentos por meio de um personagem politicamente incorreto, atrapalhado e carismático. Na imprensa "Uma aventura incrivelmente fluida com grandes intrigas psicológicas. Uma exploração angustiante do que é ser humano." – San Francisco Chronicle "Uma atraente história de aventura e ação." – The Guardian "Uma tensa batalha de inteligência entre espécies com uma atmosfera penetrante e uma lição sombria sobre o significado da liberdade." – Entertainment Weekly "Este romance muito bem fundamentado, com um protagonista memorável e intrigante, satisfaz o leitor em todos os níveis." – Publishers Weekly"

Martin und Gardner Dozois haben einundzwanzig Stories zusammengetragen – unter anderem von Patrick Rothfuss, Joe Abercrombie und Scott Lynch –, die sich den beliebtesten Charakteren aller Genres widmen: den Schurken.

La ragazza nello specchio
"L''inferno non conosce una furia violenta quanto quella di una donna offesa" recita un celebre proverbio inglese. E le eroine di La ragazza nello specchio e nuove storie di donne pericolose mostrano che davvero non è mai una buona idea deludere una signora.

Martin, lo scrittore fantasy più amato e letto al mondo. Come nel caso del primo volume, la qualità dei testi e degli autori raccolti in questa seconda (e conclusiva) parte del libro è elevatissima. Tra loro Lev Grossman che, nel racconto che dà il titolo all''edizione italiana della raccolta, torna alla Brakebills Academy, la scuola di magia dove è ambientato il suo romanzo Il Mago (Rizzoli) che lo ha fatto conoscere e amare in tutto il mondo. O Diana Gabaldon, la regina del romanzo storico americano, che regala ai suoi fan un nuovo prequel alla "Saga di Claire Randall" (edita in Italia da Corbaccio), da cui è tratta la serie televisiva "Outlander". O ancora Brandon Sanderson, una delle nuove stelle del fantasy mondiale, l''autore dei libri del ciclo "Mistborn" e delle "Cronache della Folgoluce" (pubblicati da Fanucci). Una lettura imperdibile per tutti gli appassionati di George R.R. Martin e per chi vuole conoscere alcuni dei più importanti autori americani di narrativa thriller, fantasy e fantastica.

Strange Days
A monumental collection of fiction and nonfiction by the award-winning writer and editor, Gardner Dozois, including perhaps the only World Science Fiction trip report youll ever find that is a lyrical and evocative piece bit of journalism in itself! These are Dozois short stories selected and introduced by writers, many of them legends themselves, who are friends and colleagues of Dozois. A sparkling collection of short fiction that contains some of the two-time Nebula winners best work, including many topflight Dozois collaborations! From the introduction: Imagine youre at a party in Gardners apartment. Its not large, but hes invited swarms of people, so its very crowded. Gardner keeps his awards on a little table not far from the door. People who have never been there before, young editors and the like, will eventually drift over to admire the thicket of Hugos for his work as an editor, and while there notice two Nebulas gleaming in their midst. Inevitably, someone will say, _I didnt know Gardner was a writer.Ó _Oh, yes,Ó one of us Old Hands will reply (we linger near the trophy table for this very purpose), _Gardners a much better writer than he is an editor!Ó Selection and introduction of Dozois-written stories by: Stephen Baxter, Michael Bishop, Pat Cadigan, Susan Casper, Jack Dann, Andy Duncan, Eliot Fintushel, Joe Haldeman, James Patrick Kelly, John Kessel, Nancy Kress, George R.R.

The Visible Man
A collection of original fiction by Hugo and Nebula award winning SF legend Gardner Dozois. The collection contains legendary science fiction tales _A Special Kind of Morning,Ó _Chains of the Sea,Ó the riveting title story, _The Visible Man,Ó and twelve other Dozois-authored stories. With an introduction by Robert Silverberg. From the Silverberg introduction: I invite your attention to the rhythms of the prose, the balancing of clauses, the use of alliteration, metaphor, and irony, the tough, elegant sinews of the vocabulary. It is a paragraph of splendid construction, a specimen of prose that shows honorable descent from Chaucer and Shakespeare, Pope and Dryden, Defoe and Dickens, the prose of a man who knows what he wants to say and who says it eloquently and effectively. Dozois is known in his fiction for his beautiful evocation of setting and emotional intensity within a truly alien and often austere vision of the future. He is a science fiction master of the first order¾a fact fully on display in this outstanding collection. At the publisher's request, this title is sold without DRM (Digital Rights Management). "Lyric, haunting, heartbreaking¾this is science fiction at its best."¾George R.R. Martin "My generation of writers has produced relatively few authentic masters. . .Gardner Dozois is one of them."¾William Gibson

Now two agents set out to find the source: Jaeger, the last private detective in the peaceful world of the future, and Corcail Sendijen, a lobster-like alien once a servant of the Aensalords themselves. But Earth alone is not all that is at stake¾for it seems humans are merely test subjects, and the Aensalords have plans that could endanger the entire galaxy. At the publisher's request, this title is sold without DRM (Digital Rights Management). "My generation of writers has produced relatively few authentic masters. . . Gardner Dozois is one of them."¾William Gibson
