World War Z (Deluxe Slipcase Edition)

release date: Jul 21, 2026
World War Z (Deluxe Slipcase Edition)
A deluxe slipcase edition of the #1 New York Times bestselling novel by Max Brooks “Will grab you as tightly as a dead man’s fist.”—Entertainment Weekly Twenty years ago, Max Brooks shared the first-hand experiences of the survivors of the Zombie War in the powerful oral history, World War Z. Brooks traveled across the United States of America and throughout the world, from decimated cities that once teemed with upwards of thirty million souls to the most remote and inhospitable areas of the planet to record the harrowing testimony of those who came face-to-face with the living dead. Never before have we had access to a document that so powerfully conveys the depth of fear and horror, and also the ineradicable spirit of resistance, that gripped human society through the plague years. “The perfect book for all us zombie junkies.”—Paste “Will spook you for real.”—The New York Times Book Review “Probably the most topical and literate scare since Orson Welles’s War of the Worlds radio broadcast.”—Dallas Morning News

In the thrilling sequel to the New York Times bestselling novel Minecraft: The Island, a stranded hero stumbles upon another castaway—and discovers that teamwork might just be the secret to survival. Wandering a vast, icy tundra, the explorer has never felt more alone. Is there anything out here? Did I do the right thing by leaving the safety of my island? Should I give up and go back? So many questions, and no time to ponder—not when dark is falling and dangerous mobs are on the horizon. Gurgling zombies and snarling wolves lurk in the night, and they’re closing in. With nowhere to hide, the lone traveler flees up a mountain, trapped and out of options . . . until a mysterious figure arrives, fighting off the horde singlehandedly. The unexpected savior is Summer, a fellow castaway and master of survival in these frozen wastes. Excited to find another person in this strange, blocky world, the explorer teams up with Summer, whose impressive mountain fortress as a safe haven . . . for now. But teamwork is a new skill for two people used to working alone. If they want to make it home, they will have to learn to work together—or risk losing everything.

Il massacro del Monte Rainier

Involución / Devolution

release date: Oct 20, 2020
Involución / Devolution
Finalista del Locus Award 2021 MÁS DE 150.000 LECTORES ESPERAN LA NUEVA NOVELA DEL AUTOR DE GUERRA MUNDIAL Z Greenloop fue, hasta la inesperada erupción del Rainier, una selecta comunidad ecológica. Ubicada en los bosques del estado de Washington, a poca distancia de Seattle, ofrecía una vida idílica a sus habitantes, gracias a unos avances tecnológicos que estaban en comunión con la naturaleza. Ahora, de entre los escombros y los rastros de sangre de la urbanización, han podido recuperarse los diarios de Kate Holland. En ellos se relata una historia demasiado espantosa para ser olvidada, tan horrenda que podría romper nuestras convicciones. Incluso las más firmes, como la solidez de nuestra civilización. En las páginas de Involución, Max Brooks no solo hace público por primera vez el extraordinario testimonio de Kate, sino que también expone los resultados de su propia investigación sobre la masacre de Greenloop y sobre las letales criaturas que la llevaron a cabo, seres con un aura legendaria pero que se han revelado como terroríficamente reales. ¿DE QUÉ SOMOS CAPACES CUANDO QUEDAMOS AISLADOS DE LA SOCIEDAD? ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Finalists Vie for the 2021 Locus Awards The #1 bestselling author of World War Z returns with a horror tale that blurs the lines between human and beast, and asks, What are we capable of when we’re cut off from society? “I wish we could elevate the national dialogue on public safety to a level of tone and focus that Max Brooks has demonstrated for all of us.”—Tom Ridge, former governor of Pennsylvania and first secretary of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security Set in the wilds of Washington State, Greenloop was once a model eco-community—until nature’s wrath made it a tragic object lesson in civilization’s fragility. Offering a glorious back-to-nature experience with all the comforts of high-speed Internet, solar smart houses, and the assurance of being mere hours from Seattle by highway, Greenloop was indeed a paradise—until Mount Rainier erupted, leaving its residents truly cut off from the world, and utterly unprepared for the consequences. With no weapons and their food supplies dwindling, Greenloop’s residents slowly realized that they were in a fight for survival. And as the ash swirled and finally settled, they found themselves facing a specter none of them could have predicted—or even thought possible. . . . In these pages, Max Brooks brings to light the journals of resident Kate Holland, recovered from the town’s bloody wreckage, faithfully reproducing her words alongside his own investigations into the massacre that followed and the legendary beasts behind it. If what Kate saw in those days is real, then we must accept the impossible. We must accept that the creature known as Bigfoot walks among us—and that it is a beast of terrible strength and ferocity. Part survival narrative, part bloody horror tale, part scientific journey into the boundaries between truth and fiction, this is a Bigfoot story as only Max Brooks could chronicle it—and like none you’ve ever read before.

Devolution

release date: Jun 16, 2020
Devolution
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The #1 New York Times bestselling author of World War Z is back with “the Bigfoot thriller you didn’t know you needed in your life, and one of the greatest horror novels I’ve ever read” (Blake Crouch, author of Dark Matter and Recursion). FINALIST FOR THE LOCUS AWARD As the ash and chaos from Mount Rainier’s eruption swirled and finally settled, the story of the Greenloop massacre has passed unnoticed, unexamined . . . until now. The journals of resident Kate Holland, recovered from the town’s bloody wreckage, capture a tale too harrowing—and too earth-shattering in its implications—to be forgotten. In these pages, Max Brooks brings Kate’s extraordinary account to light for the first time, faithfully reproducing her words alongside his own extensive investigations into the massacre and the legendary beasts behind it. Kate’s is a tale of unexpected strength and resilience, of humanity’s defiance in the face of a terrible predator’s gaze, and, inevitably, of savagery and death. Yet it is also far more than that. Because if what Kate Holland saw in those days is real, then we must accept the impossible. We must accept that the creature known as Bigfoot walks among us—and that it is a beast of terrible strength and ferocity. Part survival narrative, part bloody horror tale, part scientific journey into the boundaries between truth and fiction, this is a Bigfoot story as only Max Brooks could chronicle it—and like none you’ve ever read before. Praise for Devolution “Delightful . . . [A] tale of supernatural mayhem that fans of King and Crichton alike will enjoy.”—Kirkus Reviews (starred review) “The story is told in such a compelling manner that horror fans will want to believe and, perhaps, take the warning to heart.”—Booklist (starred review)

In questo mondo non sempre le regole hanno un senso, ma il coraggio e la fantasia la fanno da padroni.

Los Guerreros del infierno de Harlem

release date: Nov 06, 2017
Los Guerreros del infierno de Harlem
«Los Guerreros del infierno de Harlem es quizá la primera novela gráfica que describe un importante episodio de la historia afroamericana: el heroico comportamiento de los afroamericanos que combatieron en la Primera Guerra Mundial. Brillantemente escrita por Max Brooks –autor de superventas como “Guerra mundial Z” y “Zombi: guía de supervivencia”- y fascinantemente ilustrada por Caanan White, uno de los mejores ilustradores afroamericanos de libros gráficos, la novela cuenta la asombrosa historia de estos guerreros, generalmente olvidados, que sirvieron a su país y lucharon contra el enemigo durante la Gran Guerra Europea. Los Guerreros del infierno de Harlem estuvieron en el frente más tiempo que ninguna otra unidad estadounidense, sin ceder prisioneros ni terreno al enemigo, mientras soportaban el arraigado racismo de sus propios compatriotas. Brooks y White componen una emocionante crónica en que se dan cita la perseverancia, la nobleza, el valor y el sacrificio individuales y el triunfo colectivo, demostrando al mismo tiempo que el heroísmo de estos combatientes en el extranjero contribuyó a la larga lucha por la igualdad de derechos civiles que tenía lugar en su patria. Avalado por una solvente documentación histórica, magistralmente narrado e ilustrado con convicción, este libro es un documento histórico de primer orden y una importantísima contribución a nuestro conocimiento de la historia de los afroamericanos». Henry Louis Gates jr., titular de la cátedra Alphonse Fletcher, Universidad de Harvard.

The Harlem Hellfighters

release date: Apr 01, 2014
The Harlem Hellfighters
From bestselling author Max Brooks, the riveting story of the highly decorated, barrier-breaking, historic black regiment—the Harlem Hellfighters In 1919, the 369th infantry regiment marched home triumphantly from World War I. They had spent more time in combat than any other American unit, never losing a foot of ground to the enemy, or a man to capture, and winning countless decorations. Though they returned as heroes, this African American unit faced tremendous discrimination, even from their own government. The Harlem Hellfighters, as the Germans called them, fought courageously on—and off—the battlefield to make Europe, and America, safe for democracy. In THE HARLEM HELLFIGHTERS, bestselling author Max Brooks and acclaimed illustrator Caanan White bring this history to life. From the enlistment lines in Harlem to the training camp at Spartanburg, South Carolina, to the trenches in France, they tell the heroic story of the 369th in an action-packed and powerful tale of honor and heart.

Guerra Mundial Z

release date: May 01, 2013
Guerra Mundial Z
Em Guerra Mundial Z, Max Brooks faz uma paródia dos guias de sobrevivência convencionais e expõe a paranoia coletiva que tomou conta do mundo, em especial dos Estados Unidos, na era Bush. No livro, que dá continuidade ao bem-sucedido O guia de sobrevivência a zumbis, o autor adota um tom científico nas pretensas entrevistas que conduziu com os sobreviventes do ataque zumbi que quase extinguiu a humanidade. O narrador de Brooks é um integrante da comissão da ONU encarregado de elaborar o relatório sobre o assustador conflito que quase aniquilou o planeta. Da identificação do paciente zero, contaminado nas ruínas de Dachang, na China, até Mary Jô Miller, a arquiteta de elite que pode pagar para se proteger, passando pelo depoimento de um soldado da infantaria que lutou no conflito, nada escapa à verve do autor. Irônico, Brooks destaca ainda o quanto os homens são ingênuos em achar que podem se defender de pragas e criaturas alienígenas. Governos corruptos e com interesses eleitoreiros podem destruir qualquer Departamento de Defesa, ou conduzi-lo para o front errado. O autor mostra ainda como as sociedades desmoronaram e foram forçadas a se reorganizar após o colapso das instituições que as mantinham, levando as pessoas a atos extremos de heroísmo e altruísmo, bem como de egoísmo e mesquinhez. Além de recorrer ao fantástico para traçar um painel das reações humanas diante de crises e tragédias inexplicáveis, Brooks tece comentários ácidos sobre temas diversos como o autoritarismo na China e na União Soviética; a falsificação de relatórios de inteligência por parte do governo dos Estados Unidos para justificar a invasão ao Iraque em 2003; o impacto social e ambiental de grandes empreendimentos como a represa de Três Gargantas, na China; a opressão imposta por regimes fundamentalistas, como o talibã no Afeganistão e o tráfico internacional de órgãos, envolvendo países como o Brasil.

O desfile da extinção
Zumbis. O terror não acabou. A guerra mundial Z continua viva na memória de todos. Autor dos cultuados Guia de sobrevivência a zumbis e Guerra Mundial Z, Max Brooks apresenta em O desfile da extinção uma coleção de relatos do pós-apocalipse zumbi. A coletânea eleva a literatura zumbi a um novo patamar, no qual a história dessas criaturas se cruza com comentários políticos irônicos, referências históricas e geográficas notáveis, tudo com o humor afiado que caracteriza a obra de Brooks. O livro reúne quatro histórias surpreendentes, que traçam um panorama do pós-apocalipse zumbi, por quem mais entende do assunto. Em Conclusão Ltda., um consórcio mundial oferece um inusitado serviço: a chance dos sobreviventes acertarem as contas com o seu emocional. Misturando ficção e realidade, Steve e Fred é a claustrofóbica história de um sobrevivente preso em um pequeno banheiro. Na companhia de um velho livro e com apenas uma minúscula janela para o exterior, ele espera ansiosamente por um improvável resgaste. No conto que dá título ao livro, o leitor se depara com um iminente embate entre zumbis e vampiros. Afinal, como os chupadores de sangue reagirão ao perceber que os mortos-vivos estão acabando com seu alimento? Já A Grande Muralha é a incrível história da reconstrução da muralha da China, contada por uma das suas operárias.
