release date: Aug 04, 2025
As crônicas de âmbar
Considerada uma das obras de fantasia mais originais de todos os tempos, nova edição de As Crônicas de Âmbar reúne os cinco primeiros volumes da saga Em um universo onde todos os reinos e mundos são meros reflexos de Âmbar, a cidade eterna e realidade primal, a saga de Roger Zelazny se desdobra em uma trama repleta de intrigas, magia e reviravoltas surpreendentes. Certo dia, Corwin, príncipe de Âmbar, acorda em uma terra estranha sem memórias de seu passado. Ao tentar escapar de seu exílio, ele descobre que sua família é capaz de manipular a realidade, viajar entre as infinitas sombras do multiverso e controlar poderosos artefatos mágicos, como os arcanos. Quando o patriarca da família desaparece misteriosamente, os nove príncipes de Âmbar travam uma guerra implacável pelo trono. Em meio a traições familiares, duelos mágicos e reinos que desafiam a lógica, Corwin embarca em uma jornada épica para recuperar sua identidade, conquistar seu lugar no trono e desvendar o paradeiro de seu pai, o ardiloso rei Oberon. Ao enfrentar perigos de infinitos mundos e a ganância implacável de seus irmãos, cada qual com os próprios segredos e ambições, Corwin descobrirá que a lealdade pode ser tão mutável quanto as sombras que cercam o reino de Âmbar. Considerada uma das obras de fantasia mais originais da história, As Crônicas de Âmbar combina profundas questões filosóficas, referências literárias e uma mitologia singular, consolidando-se como um clássico moderno. O primeiro tomo da série traz o ciclo de Corwin, reunindo os seguintes volumes: Os nove príncipes de Âmbar, As armas de Avalon, O sinal do unicórnio, A mão de Oberon e As Cortes do Caos.

He''s not the only one who can travel the Road, and as people join and leave, they can alter the past, or the future, to suit their whims.

release date: Feb 28, 2015
Le cycle des princes d'Ambre (Tome 8) - Le signe du Chaos
Tout peut arriver lorsqu''on appartient à l''illustre famille des Princes d''Ambre. Par exemple, comme Merle Corey en fait l''expérience, se retrouver projeté dans un univers digne d''Alice au pays des merveilles. Une situation qui n''est pas forcément désagréable. Mais quand un monstrueux Jabberwock surgit du décor pour se lancer à votre poursuite, qu''il est de surcroît rejoint par un Ange Igné de la dernière férocité, vous êtes en droit d''estimer que le Chaos a d''étranges façons de vous faire signe ; et qu''il est temps de mettre hors d''état de nuire des ennemis capables de vous débusquer jusque dans les rêves d''autrui. Encore faut-il les démasquer, démêler le vrai du faux, le traître de l''allié, dans un monde de plus en plus semblable à un gigantesque palais des glaces.

Damnation Alley (LIB)

release date: Dec 15, 2014
Damnation Alley (LIB)
Hell Tanner isn''t the sort of guy you''d mistake for a hero: he''s a fast-driving car thief, a smuggler, and a stone-cold killer. He''s also expendable - at least in the eyes of the Secretary of Traffic for the Nation of California. Tanner doesn''t care much for those eyes. You''d also never mistake Hell Tanner for a humanitarian. Facing life in prison for his various crimes, he''s given a choice; rot away his remaining years in a tiny jail cell, or drive cross-country and deliver a case of antiserum to the plague-ridden people of Boston, Massachusetts...if anyone is still alive there to receive it, that is. The chance of a full pardon does wonders for getting his attention. And don''t mistake this mission of mercy for any kind of normal road trip - not when there are radioactive storms, hordes of carniverous beasts, and giant, mutated scorpions to be found along every deadly mile between Los Angeles and the East Coast. But then, this is no normal part of America, you see. This is DAMNATION ALLEY... Roger Zelazny''s post-apocalypse novel predates the George Peppard-Jan-Michael Vincent movie vehicle by about a decade and represents the fine storytelling talents of one of science fiction and fantasy''s most daring writers (likely best remembered for his imaginative Amber series). Speaking of vehicles: the coolest part of the movie--and likely, thankfully, the only part most people remember--turns out to be even cooler in the book: the flame-spewing, .50-caliber-bullet-belching, grenade-throwing, gigantic all-terrain vehicle that''s responsible for getting a crucial antiserum shipment from Los Angeles to Boston to stop a deadly plague. The driver, a despicable lowlife named Hell Tanner, has been given a not-so-difficult choice. He can either get the drugs to the East Coast intact, save humanity, and receive a full pardon for his crimes, or he can refuse and spend the rest of his life in a "zebra suit." So what''s the catch? Thanks to World War III, Middle America is now an electrical-storm-torn, heavily irradiated playground for dino-sized Gila monsters, "freak spiders," humongous bats "that eat off the mutie fruit trees down Mexico way," and 120-foot-long snakes as big around as garbage cans. And the native humans still scrambling around the wasteland aren''t much less dangerous.

Las armas de Avalón

release date: Dec 01, 2014
Las armas de Avalón
Nada más acceder al trono de Ámbar, Corwin deberá investigar la muerte de Caine, asesinado por unas extrañas y sombrías criaturas... Pero este no será el único asunto turbio al tenga que hacer frente: aunque ha conseguido que sus derechos a la corona prevalezcan, descubrirá que todavía son demasiados los que desean verle muerto. Ámbar es el mundo verdadero, un universo que proyecta infinitos reflejos de sí mismo, solo manipulables por aquellos con sangre real amberita. Las armas de Avalón es el segundo volumen de Las crónicas de Ámbar, la mejor serie de fantasía de Zelazny, comparable en influencia a El señor de los Anillos de Tolkien.

Seigneur de Lumière

release date: Aug 20, 2014
Seigneur de Lumière
Il a pour nom Mahasamatman, Bouddha, Tathagata ou, plus simplement, Sam. Il est également le prince Siddhartha. Tout juste revenu à la vie, il décide de se mettre en marche et de se soulever contre Brahmâ, Vishnou et Shiva, ces immortels composant la Trimoûrti qui règne sur les habitants d''une planète isolée. En montrant la Voie et en disant la vérité aux mortels, il espère bien faire des ravages dans les rangs des Seigneurs de Lumière... Mêlant fort habilement mythologie hindoue et science-fiction, Seigneur de Lumière est un objet littéraire hors normes. Ce troisième roman de Roger Zelazny est sans doute son œuvre la plus ambitieuse. Il a d’ailleurs été récompensé par le prix Hugo en 1968.

His body is kept young and in perfect health by advanced scientific methods; he has amassed such a fortune that he can own entire planets; and he has become a god. No, not a god of Earth, but one of the panetheon of the alien Pei''ans: he is Shimbo of Darktree, Shrugger of Thunders. Yet he doesn''t believe that his personality has merged with the ancient consciousness of Shimbo, that he really can call down the skies upon his enemies. The time comes, however, when Francis Sandow must use these powers against the most dangerous antagonist in the universe: another Pei''an god -- Shimbo''s own enemy, Belion. And Belion has no doubt whatever of his own powers.... Eye of Cat: A retired hunter of alien zoo specimens, William Blackhorse Singer, the last Najavo on a future Earth, is called upon by the World Government to aid in protecting an alien diplomat from a powerful and hostile member of his own species. Singer, in turn, seeks the aid of a shape-shifting alien known as "Cat" in carrying out the mission. Cat accepts, with one condition: when the mission is over, he wants a return bout with the man who captured him -- a chase with Singer as the hunted instead of the hunter....
