Victoria Schwab Libros

France, 1714: in a moment of desperation, a young woman makes a Faustian bargain to live forever and is cursed to be forgotten by everyone she meets. Thus begins the extraordinary life of Addie LaRue, and a dazzling adventure that will play out across centuries and continents, across history and art, as a young woman learns how far she will go to leave her mark on the world. But everything changes when, after nearly 300 years, Addie stumbles across a young man in a hidden bookstore and he remembers her name.

Víctor y Eli eran dos estudiantes universitarios brillantes pero arrogantes que reconocían, el uno en el otro, la misma agudeza y la misma ambición. En el último año de su carrera, el interés compartido por la adrenalina, las experiencias cercanas a la muerte y los acontecimientos en apariencia sobrenaturales plantean una posibilidad intrigante: que, dadas ciertas condiciones, sería posible desarrollar habilidades extraordinarias. Pero cuando la tesis pasa de lo académico a lo experimental, las cosas salen horriblemente mal. Diez años más tarde, Víctor escapa de la cárcel, decidido a encontrar a su antiguo amigo (ahora enemigo), con la ayuda de una muchachita cuyo carácter reservado esconde una capacidad asombrosa. Mientras tanto, Eli se ha propuesto erradicar a todas las demás personas con superpoderes que pueda encontrar... salvo a su compañera, una mujer enigmática de voluntad inquebrantable. Ambos armados con inmenso poder, impulsados por el recuerdo de la traición y la pérdida, los archienemigos están decididos a vengarse... pero ¿quién quedará vivo al final?

Una vida que nadie recuerda. Una historia que nunca olvidarás. Francia, 1714. En un momento de desesperación, una joven hace un pacto faustiano para conseguir una vida infinita. ¿Cuál es el precio que deberá pagar para vivir eternamente? El olvido. Todas y cada una de las personas que conoce la terminarán olvidando. Así es cómo comienza la extraordinaria vida de Addie LaRue; una vida que atraviesa siglos y continentes, una vida que atraviesa la historia y el arte, en la que ella intenta comprender hasta dónde será capaz de llegar con tal de dejar su marca en el mundo. Sin embargo, todo cambia cuando, después de 300 años, Addie conoce a un hombre en una librería. Pero hay algo más… él es la única persona que recuerda su nombre.

Kell is one of the last Antari—magicians with a rare, coveted ability to travel between parallel Londons; Red, Grey, White, and, once, Black. Unofficially, Kell is a smuggler, servicing people willing to pay for even the smallest glimpses of a world they'll never see. It's a defiant hobby with dangerous consequences. A Darker Shade of Magic — Kell serves the Maresh Empire—Red London, as he calls it—as an official ambassador, traveling between the frequent bloody regime changes in White London and the court of George III in the dullest of Londons. After one such visit goes awry, Kell escapes his home for Grey London and runs into Delilah Bard, a cut-purse with lofty aspirations. Now perilous magic is afoot, and treachery lurks at every turn. To save all of the worlds, they'll first need to stay alive. A Gathering of Shadows — While Red London is caught up in the pageantry and thrills of the Element Games, another London is coming back to life, and those who were thought to be forever gone have returned. A Conjuring of Light — As darkness sweeps the Maresh Empire, the once precarious balance of power among the four Londons has reached its breaking point.
