After being magically gifted with incredible luck, a boy discovers this gift just may be a curse when it comes to love, in this YA novel by #1 New York Times-bestselling author Marissa Meyer. Jude is determined to fly under the radar. He just wants to draw his comics, host regular D&D night with his friends, work at his parents’ vinyl record store, and escape high school as unscathed as possible. That is, until the night he comes across a mysterious twenty-sided dice and finds himself inexplicably gifted with a bout of supernatural good luck. Suddenly, everything Jude has ever wanted is within reach. His first art submission is accepted to his favorite fanzine. He helps his friend’s song become a finalist in a songwriting competition. And he’s the 100th caller to a local radio contest, winning him a pair of coveted concert tickets, which he uses to ask out the popular girl he’s been crushing on since elementary school. For a few blissful weeks, he feels invincible. But when he loses the magic dice at a local music festival, his luck takes a turn for the worse. He struggles to reclaim his good fortune while fighting off long-buried feelings for his best friend—who is definitely not the girl he’s supposed to be in love with. Can Jude risk stepping into the spotlight long enough to win the true girl of his dreams? Or is he doomed to be unlucky in love forever?

Y más... Nueve historias. Nueve puertas al mundo de Crónicas Lunares, que te volverán a enamorar. Atrévete a cruzar el umbral.

Anarquistas y Renegados luchan por el poder. En medio de la batalla surgen los protagonistas que pertenecen a filas opuestas. Por un lado, la anarquista Nova, sobrina del líder Ace, que busca vengar la muerte de su familia y lucha, también, por que los seres humanos logren su autonomía sin depender de los prodigios. Por el otro, Adrian, que desea hacer justicia donde los Renegados no pueden por sus propias reglas, y en el camino intenta descubrir quién asesinó a su madre, una de las Renegadas originales del Consejo. Entre la justicia que Adrian persigue y la venganza que busca Nova, se va revelando el mundo interior de estos seres que, aun con sus habilidades extraordinarias, no dejan de ser humanos: sienten prejuicios, atracción, celos, alegría, dolor. Los dos jóvenes se conocen. Sus almas casi se rozan, sus convicciones tambalean. En un mundo gótico y siniestro, se revela una historia atrapante y vertiginosa donde la muerte aparece con crudeza, pero también, la ternura, la emoción y el miedo.

El tiempo se acaba. Juntos pueden salvar al mundo. Pero son su peor pesadilla. La vida secreta de Nova es complicada: Como Insomnia, es miembro de los Renegados y trabaja en la patrulla de Adrian para proteger a los débiles y mantener el orden en la ciudad.

Y como Nova... sus sentimientos por Adrian son cada vez más profundos, incluso cuando él es el hijo de sus peores enemigos y le oculta peligrosos secretos. Mientras la delincuencia crece en Gatlon City, Adrian y Nova no solo cuestionarán sus creencias sobre la justicia, sino también lo que sienten el uno por el otro. Renegados y Anarquistas vuelven a enfrentarse en la delgada línea entre el bien y el mal.

Cinder er en storslået fantasy genfortælling af Askepot, sat i en original verden fyldt med androids, fremmede planeter og en helt speciel prins. Det er en fortælling om at være anderledes, at finde sig selv, og gøre hvad der skal til for at kunne leve lykkeligt til sine dages ende. Selv i fremtiden, begynder historien med Der var engang ... Cinder er det første ud af fire bind i serien Lunar Krøniken. Pressen skriver: »Cinder er en genfortælling af Askepot [...] Alene det, at hun ikke går derhjemme og leger husholderske, men er en mekaniker, der konstant er beskidt af olie og støv, vinder mig allerede der [...] Alle de karakteristiske træk har fået et lille twist og er blevet historiens nye kendetegn [...] Du skal ikke være bange for at samle Cinder op, hvis sci-fi er totalt uinteressant for dig. Det handler om så meget andet end det, og samspillet virker så godt, at jeg (i hvert fald) bare accepterede, at verden nu engang så sådan ud.« – Sort Tale »En ting er at nyfortolke et eventyr. Det er set før. Men Cinder er enestående. Det er lykkedes forfatteren at skabe en fortælling, der på den ene side er helt anderledes end den oprindelige Askepot, men på den anden side stadig følger handlingsforløbet. Flere steder kan man endda sige, waow, det kan jeg genkende fra Askepot. Det er en fed fornemmelse. Det gør så også, at man kan forudse, hvad der sker ... Og dog. For lige pludselig ...« – Bookeater »Jeg elsker Cinder lige så meget nu, som jeg gjorde, da jeg læste den første gang [på engelsk]. Jeg var vild med det hele, universet, spændingen, personlighederne og eventyret [...] Det er et fantastisk univers, som jeg gerne vil længere ind i og blive fanget i mange gange endnu.« – Marie Lorentzen, De Unges Ord »Det var virkelig en fornøjelse at læse bogen og den læste derfor nærmest sig selv. Jeg elsker, når bøger gør det. For så ved man, at man er i rigtig godt selskab.« – Karin Hald, Skrivepulten
