La sangre de los elfos
Andrzej Sapkowski · 1995
De momento solo tenemos la sinopsis en inglés.
Andrzej Sapkowski, arcymistrz światowej fantasy, zaprasza do swojego Neverlandu i przedstawia uwielbianą przez czytelników i wychwalaną przez krytykę wiedźmińską sagę! „Tako rzecze Ithlinne, elfia wieszczka i uzdrowicielka: Drżyjcie, albowiem nadchodzi Niszczyciel Narodów. Stratują waszą ziemię i sznurem ją podzielą. Miasta wasze zostaną zburzone i pozbawione mieszkańców. Nietoperz i kruk w domach waszych zamieszkają, drzewo straci liść, zgnije owoc i zgorzknieje ziarno. Zaprawdę powiadam wam, oto nadchodzi czas miecza i topora, wiek wilczej zamieci. Miasto płonie, wąskie uliczki zieją ogniem i żarem. Narasta wrzask, odgłosy zajadłej walki, murem wstrząsają głuche uderzenia taranu. Krzyk, strach. Obezwładniający, paraliżujący, duszący strach”.

Everybody knows that her eyes may never be opened or the consequences will be too terrible to bear. The elders of Black Spring have virtually quarantined the town by using high-tech surveillance to prevent their curse from spreading.

But, in so doing, they send the town spiraling into dark, medieval practices of the distant past.

La estación de la calle Perdido (Bas-Lag 1)
China Miéville · 2000
La estación de la calle Perdido es el aclamado thriller fantástico con que China Miéville dio inicio a su mítica trilogía «Bas-Lag», a la que le seguirán La cicatriz y El Consejo de Hierro. La metrópoli de Nueva Crobuzon se extiende en el centro de su desconcertante mundo. Los seres humanos, los mutantes y las razas arcanas se apiñan en la penumbra, bajo sus chimeneas; los ríos fluyen, viscosos, y las fábricas y las fundiciones martillan la noche. Durante más de mil años, el Parlamente y su brutal milicia han gobernado a una amplia gama de obreros, artistas, espías, magos, adictos y prostitutas. Ahora, al llegar un extraño con los bolsillos llenos y una demanda inalcanzable, algo impensable se libera. De pronto, la ciudad se ve atrapada por el terror, y el destino de millones de personas depende de un grupo de marginados que huyen de los legisladores y los delincuentes. El paisaje urbano se convierte en un campo de caza, las batallas se libran en las sombras de edificios extraños... y ya es tarde para escapar. Galardonado con el Premio Arthur C. Clarke de 2001 y el Ignotus de 2002. Con esta trilogía, Miéville empezó a fascinar a escritores, medios y lectores de cualquier género. Hoy es considerado uno de los mayores nombres de las letras anglosajonas del siglo XXI. La crítica ha dicho de este libro... « La estación de la calle Perdido transporta al lector, a lo largo de más de ochocientas páginas rebosantes de imaginación, a Nueva Corbuzon, una metrópoli bulliciosa y brutalmente estratificada: un Parlamento compuesto por miembros de las elites, y sostenido por la fuerza militar, rige los destinos de una población marginal, ingente y prácticamente paria, de drogodependientes, prostitutas, artesanos y delincuentes. Sin ser del todo un libro steampunk, La estación de la calle Perdido tiene algo de parábola victoriana, de versión sci-fi de Oliver Twist en la manera de describir la suciedad y la miseria en las calles. A lo que Miéville añadía un ingrediente más: la xenofobia.» El Mundo «China Miéville se coloca sin esfuerzo en la primera división de aquellos que usan herramientas y armamento de la fantasía para definir y crear la literatura del siglo XXI.» Neil Gaiman «El inicio de una trilogía que mezcla de forma magistral steampunk, ciberpunk y urban fantasy. Bas-Lag es ya un clásico de fantasía.» Antonio Torrubia, Libreriía Gigamesh

The Tainted Cup EN
Robert Jackson Bennett · 2024
De momento solo tenemos la sinopsis en inglés.
HUGO AWARD WINNER • WORLD FANTASY AWARD WINNER • NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A Holmes and Watson–style detective duo take the stage in this fantasy with a mystery twist, from acclaimed author Robert Jackson Bennett “Like an endearing fantasy version of Knives Out . . . A great murder mystery is hard to pull off, but Bennett structures his perfectly.”—T. J. Klune, The New York Times “Combines the best of Lovecraft and Doyle.”—Matt Dinniman, New York Times bestselling author of Dungeon Crawler Carl “A masterpiece.”—Hideo Kojima, legendary videogame creator of the Metal Gear series LOCUS AWARD FINALIST • EDGAR AWARD NOMINEE • A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR: The New York Times Book Review, NPR, Elle, BookPage In Daretana’s greatest mansion, a high imperial officer lies dead—killed, to all appearances, when a tree erupted from his body. Even here at the Empire’s borders, where contagions abound and the blood of the leviathans works strange magical changes, it’s a death both terrifying and impossible. Assigned to investigate is Ana Dolabra, a detective whose reputation for brilliance is matched only by her eccentricities. Rumor has it that she wears a blindfold at all times, and that she can solve impossible cases without even stepping outside the walls of her home. At her side is her new assistant, Dinios Kol, magically altered in ways that make him the perfect aide to Ana’s brilliance. Din is at turns scandalized, perplexed, and utterly infuriated by his new superior—but as the case unfolds and he watches Ana’s mind leap from one startling deduction to the next, he must admit that she is, indeed, the Empire’s greatest detective. As the two close in on a mastermind and uncover a scheme that threatens the Empire itself, Din realizes he’s barely begun to assemble the puzzle that is Ana Dolabra—and wonders how long he’ll be able to keep his own secrets safe from her piercing intellect. By an “endlessly inventive” ( Vulture ) author with a “wicked sense of humor” (NPR), The Tainted Cup mixes the charms of detective fiction with brilliant world-building to deliver a fiendishly clever mystery that’s at once instantly recognizable and thrillingly new.
