New Releases by Moira Young

Davy David, an orphan, lives by his wits in the dead-end town of Brownvale. When a stray dog named George turns Davy''s life upside down just days before Christmas, Davy sets in motion a chain of events that forces them to flee. A mischievous wind blows the two of them to a boarded-up museum on the outskirts of town where they meet the elderly recluse, Miss Flint. She has planned one last adventure before her time is up and hires the reluctant Davy and George to escort her. As they travel, the most peculiar thing begins to happen--Miss Flint gets younger and younger with every mile, and her story unfolds along with it. Moira Young''s The Road to Ever After is a magical and moving adventure about an unlikely friendship and an unforgettable journey.

All three books in the highly praised Dust Lands trilogy, which MTV’s Hollywood Crush blog called “better than The Hunger Games,” are now available in a collectible paperback boxed set. In Blood Red Road, Saba is forced to flee Silverlake, a dried-up wasteland ravaged by constant sandstorms, when four cloaked horsemen capture her beloved twin brother Lugh. Suddenly thrown into the lawless, ugly reality of the outside world, Saba discovers she is a fierce fighter—and when she teams up with a handsome daredevil named Jack and a gang of girl revolutionaries, Saba stages a showdown that will change the course of her civilization. The action continues in Rebel Heart when a new enemy arises, and Saba needs all of her warrior’s strength just to survive. The stakes only get higher in Raging Star. Because although Saba knows how to fight—she’s not called the Angel of Death for nothing—sometimes there are fights that cannot be won. How much will she sacrifice to save the people she loves? This riveting trilogy is “a natural for Hunger Games fans” (Publishers Weekly) that makes an ideal gift.

Saba leads a group of guerrillas against DeMalo and the Tonton, all while contemplating DeMalo''s invitation to join him in building a New Eden.

Mit dem Mut der Verzweiflung macht sie sich auf einen Weg voller Gefahren, Gewalt und Verrat. Sie kann niemandem vertrauen - auch nicht dem Mann, der ihr das Leben rettet. Der erste Band einer epischen Endzeit-Fantasy, eine Geschichte, die dein Herz schneller schlagen lässt.

Saba passou a vida inteira na Lagoa da Prata, uma imensidão de terra desértica assolada por constantes tempestades de areia. A miséria e a aridez do lugar não a incomodam, contanto que o irmão gêmeo, Lugh, esteja por perto. Um dia, porém, uma gigantesca tempestade de areia traz em seu rastro quatro cavaleiros de manto negro, e a vida que Saba conhece chega ao fim: seu pai é morto, Lugh é raptado e ela não tem escolha a não ser embarcar em uma perigosa jornada para resgatá-lo. Repentinamente jogada na realidade selvagem e sem lei do mundo fora da Lagoa da Prata, Saba não sabe o que fazer sem Lugh para guiá-la. Por isso, talvez, sua maior surpresa seja o que descobre sobre si mesma: é uma lutadora incansável, uma sobrevivente feroz, a mais astuta das oponentes. Com a ajuda de um audacioso e atraente fugitivo e de uma gangue de garotas revolucionárias, a busca pelo irmão fará de Saba a protagonista de um confronto que vai mudar o destino de uma civilização. Com ritmo ininterrupto, muita ação e uma história de amor épica, Caminhos de sangue é uma aventura grandiosa ambientada em um mundo futurista e violento.

Saba has rescued her kidnapped brother and defeated the fanatical Tonton. But the price to be paid for her violent victory is terrible. Jack has disappeared--and can no longer be trusted. A new and formidable enemy is on the rise in the dustlands. No one is safe. And Saba must confront the terrible secret hidden in the darkest depths of her soul.

Saba debe emprender un largo viaje para rescatar a su hermano, que ha sido capturado por cuatro misteriosos jinetes tras una tormenta de arena... Saba tiene 18 años y desde que nació vive en Silverlake, una zona solitaria y yerma, asolada por constantes tormentas de arena. Entre las ruinas de una antigua civilización, Saba y sus hermanos -Lugh, su gemelo, y Emmi, la más pequeña de la familia- sobreviven como pueden trabajando en la modesta granja de su padre. Un día, la tormenta de polvo más devastadora arrasa la zona, y tras ella aparecen cuatro jinetes, vestidos con largas túnicas negras, que acaban con la vida de su padre y se llevan a Lugh como prisionero. Rota de dolor, Saba inicia un larguísimo viaje a pie para encontrar a su hermano. Un viaje épico en el que conocerá la injusticia, el mal y la muerte, pero también la amistad, el coraje y el amor verdadero. Y descubrirá que, con la ayuda de las personas a quienes quiere, puede conseguir todo, absolutamente todo, lo que se proponga... « Lugh nació primero, sí. El día más corto de todo el año, cuando el sol está muy bajo en el cielo. Luego yo, dos horas más tarde. Eso es todo, más o menos. Lugh va primero, siempre primero, y yo, pues le sigo detrás. Y no pasa nada. Eso está bien. Es como tiene que ser.»

Dark Eden unisce generi letterari diversi. Un ritmo incadescente, un linguaggio originale, azioni mozzafiato e un''indimenticabile storia d''amore.

Every step of Saba''s journey sizzles with danger... In a lawless land, where life is cheap and survival is hard, Saba has been brought up in isolated Silverlake. She never sees the dangers of the destructive society outside. When her twin brother is snatched by mysterious black-robed riders, she sets out on an epic quest to rescue him.
