While the Eternal Conflict rages forever onward, horror and superstition of a purely Sanctuary variety still prey on the hearts of the people. In a time long since forgotten, the Horadric Order was tasked with recording local legends, cautionary tales, and stories of the most twisted horror, in the hope that some innocents might be saved by their knowledge. Now, the vaults are open. Direct from the Diablo development team and horror''s preeminent minds comes Tales from the Horadric Library, a short story collection exploring the darkest corners of Sanctuary, and the evils that dwell there. This beautiful deluxe book has original artwork and metallic ink on its illuminated pages.

Tras sacudir el cosmos con Gideon la Novena, su mortífera novela galardonada con el Premio Locus 2020 al debut del año, Tamsyn Muir continúa su retorcido rompecabezas lleno de misterio, asesinatos, magia y caos. «Un viaje increíble por el caos de la mente». —Library Journal Nada es lo que parece en las estancias del Emperador, y el destino de la galaxia descansa sobre los hombros de una única mujer. El Emperador ha reclutado a Harrowhark Nonagesimus, la última nigromante de la Novena Casa, para combatir en una guerra perdida de antemano. Harrow tendrá que aliarse con una rival detestable y perfeccionar sus habilidades para así convertirse en un ángel de la no-muerte, pero su salud empieza a flaquear, su espada le da náuseas e incluso su mente amenaza con traicionarla. Presa en la gótica penumbra del Mitreo del Emperador con tres profesores nada amigables y perseguida por el fantasma demente de un planeta masacrado, Harrow deberá hacer frente a dos preguntas incómodas: ¿hay alguien que intenta matarla? Y, en caso de conseguirlo, ¿será el universo un lugar mejor? ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Harrow the Ninth, the sequel to the sensational, USA Today best-selling novel Gideon the Ninth, turns a galaxy inside out as one necromancer struggles to survive the wreckage of herself aboard the emperor''s haunted space station. She answered the emperor''s call. She arrived with her arts, her wits, and her only friend. In victory, her world has turned to ash. After rocking the cosmos with her deathly debut, Tamsyn Muir continues the story of the penumbral Ninth House in Harrow the Ninth, a mind-twisting puzzle box of mystery, murder, magic, and mayhem. Nothing is as it seems in the halls of the emperor, and the fate of the galaxy rests on one woman''s shoulders. Harrowhark Nonagesimus, last necromancer of the Ninth House, has been drafted by her emperor to fight an unwinnable war. Side-by-side with a detested rival, Harrow must perfect her skills and become an angel of undeath - but her health is failing, her sword makes her nauseous, and even her mind is threatening to betray her. Sealed in the Gothic gloom of the emperor''s Mithraeum with three unfriendly teachers, hunted by the mad ghost of a murdered planet, Harrow must confront two unwelcome questions: Is somebody trying to kill her? And if they succeeded, would the universe be better off?

"When a stranger comes to town, secrets are sure to come out. New York Times bestselling author Tamsyn Muir spins a twisty--and twisted--short story of revenge and survival. A fresh-faced newcomer arrives in an isolated, gang-run town and soon finds herself taking a job nobody else wants: bodyguard to a ghoul. Not just your average mindless, half-rotted shuffler, though. Lucille is a dancer who can still put on her own lipstick and whose shows are half burlesque, half gladiator match. But the stranger is no stranger to this particular ghoul. Both women are undercover in their own way. And both have something to lose if their connection comes to light"--Amazon.com website.

When the witch built the forty-flight tower, she made very sure to do the whole thing properly. Each flight contains a dreadful monster, ranging from a diamond-scaled dragon to a pack of slavering goblins. Should a prince battle his way to the top, he will be rewarded with a golden sword--and the lovely Princess Floralinda. But no prince has managed to conquer the first flight yet, let alone get to the fortieth. In fact, the supply of fresh princes seems to have quite dried up. And winter is closing in on Floralinda...

Pokračování románu na pomezí sci-fi, fantasy, hororu a detektivky je především o žalu a vyrovnávání se se ztrátou. Vyslyšela císařovo volání do zbraně. Přijela se svým nadáním, bystrým mozkem a jedinou kamarádkou. Zvítězila, ale současně přišla o všechno. Na císařově vesmírné stanici není nic takové, jak se na první pohled zdá, a osud celé galaxie spočívá na ramenou jediné ženy. Harrowhark Nonagesima, poslední Devátá nekromantka, byla císařem povolána do války, kterou není možné vyhrát. Harrow a její nenáviděná rivalka musejí obě dokonale ovládnout umění nekromancie a stát se anděly nesmrti... jenže Harrow slábne, z vlastního meče se jí dělá zle a nemůže se spolehnout dokonce ani na svou jindy bystrou mysl. Je uvězněná v pochmurných chodbách císařovy vesmírné stanice a v patách jsou jí nejen tři nepříjemní učitelé, ale také šílený duch a zavražděná planeta. Nekromantce nezbývá než se postavit dvěma nevítaným otázkám: Snaží se ji někdo zabít? A nebyl by na tom vesmír náhodou líp, kdyby její atentátník uspěl? Nakladatelská anotace.
