La crítica ha dicho: "En el Coventry hay pasillos oscuros y lugares torcidos que los lectores querrán visitar". - The New York Times "Entre dos mundos es una historia fascinante en sí misma y una secuela sólida, a pesar de ser completamente diferente al tono de Las tejedoras de destinos. Nos ofrece interesantes respuestas a preguntas persistentes acerca de la construcción de todo un mundo ficcional; encontramos algunos maravillosos personajes nuevos, y terminamos con el panorama dispuesto para un emocionante tercer libro. Estoy muy interesada en esta serie y a la ansiosa espera del tercer libro". - Alice Marvel, blog. "¡ Entre dos mundos es completamente fabulosa! Creo que incluso me gustó más que el primer libro, y gracias a Dios no tuve que padecer del desastroso fenómeno de siempre de un bajón en las segundas partes de las series!" - The Book Addict''s Guide, blog. http://www.megustaleer.com.mx/

Twenty-one year-old Jillian Nichols only has one rule when it comes to boys: catch and release. Boy-catching isn''t just a game for Jillian and her friends, it''s a lifestyle. After all, boys might be good for a dance or a drink and certainly a little under-cover action of the scandalous variety, but expect much else and you''re bound for heart ache.So when her best friends and fellow boy catchers start dropping like flies junior year, Jillian is determined to keep boys in her bedroom and out of her heart. Until she meets Liam McAvoy, the kind of guy that sticks around to make waffles and who can''t-or perhaps won''t-take a hint. Study abroad student Liam doesn''t want to be another notch on Jillian''s bedpost. Actually he has much more interesting ideas for Jillian and her bedposts, but his student visa''s set expiration date means he can''t promise her forever. That doesn''t mean he''s going to walk away from the challenge of discovering why Jillian is hell-bent at keeping people at a distance. Before long, neither is sure who is catching who-or if they''re playing for keeps. Jillian knows one thing though: falling in love will not only break the only rule of boy-catching, it could also break her heart.

Así que está decidida a fallar en las pruebas para ser hilandera, pero en su último examen sus dedos resbalan, el telar reacciona a su don... y la Corporación la identifica. A partir de ese momento, Adelice dejará de tener control sobre su vida y pasará a convertirse en un instrumento más de la omnipresente Corporación.

Lo que ha dicho la crítica: "Los salones del Conventry son lugares oscuros y retorcidos que los lectores querrán visitar" - The New York Times- "Cautivadora e intensa, un equilibrio perfecto de misterio, romance y drama" - Publishers Weekly- "Me encanta cómo en Las tejedoras de destinos el tiempo es una resplandeciente línea tangible que puede ser entretejida para crear una guarida segura dentro de un mundo letal. Original, artística, profunda y ágil... la novela de Albin es una lectura absorbente" -Caragh O ́Brien, autora de la trilogía Marca de Nacimiento-

First in a series of deadly secrets, tangled lies, and woven truths: "A unique world that is as fascinating as it is frightening." —Josephine Angelini, international bestselling author Incapable. Awkward. Artless. That''s what the other girls whisper behind her back. But sixteen-year-old Adelice Lewys has a secret: She wants to fail. Gifted with the ability to weave time with matter, she''s exactly what the Guild is looking for, and in the world of Arras, being chosen to work the looms is everything a girl could want. It means privilege, eternal beauty, and being something other than a secretary. It also means the power to manipulate the very fabric of reality. But if controlling what people eat, where they live, and how many children they have is the price of having it all, Adelice isn''t interested. Not that her feelings matter, because she slipped and used her hidden talent for a moment. Now she has one hour to eat her mom''s overcooked pot roast. One hour to listen to her sister''s academy gossip and laugh at her dad''s jokes. One hour to pretend everything''s okay. And one hour to escape. Because tonight, they''ll come for her. " Crewel is a book about romance, knowing who to trust, and destiny." —Seventeen.com "If you liked The Hunger Games, try Crewel." —Redbook.com "The halls of Coventry are dark and twisted places readers will want to visit." — The New York Times Book Review

But perfection comes at a price and not even the looms of Arras can manipulate away every problem in the fabric of life. Something Karoline Swander knows all too well.
