Holly Black Libros

Holly Black, reconocida como la reina del fantasy, presenta una historia de intriga y manipulación en un mundo de hadas. En "El Rey Malvado", Jude ha convertido al despreocupado príncipe Cardan en su marioneta, controlando cada uno de sus movimientos desde que asumió el trono. Sin embargo, Jude se encuentra en una situación precaria, arriesgando su vida en cada momento. Mientras tanto, el pueblo de Faerie inicia un juego que se convierte en una amenaza seria para ambos. Jude se enfrenta a la soledad, sin amigos ni aliados, y la sombra de la muerte acecha sobre ella. La traición más dolorosa proviene de Cardan, quien ha pasado de ser un príncipe cruel a un rey malvado. En este entorno hostil, ni Jude ni los habitantes de Faerie pueden prever las consecuencias de su reinado. La lucha por el poder y la supervivencia se entrelazan en una narrativa llena de tensión y sorpresas.

Han pasado ocho años desde Bitky hada. Lady Nore del Dvor zubov se ha establecido nuevamente en el inaccesible norte, donde da vida a monstruos de ramas y nieve, fieles sirvientes dispuestos a vengar a su señora. La única que tiene poder sobre la cruel lady es su hija, la joven reina del Dvor zubov. Sin embargo, Suren ha huido al mundo de los mortales y ha elegido una vida salvaje en los bosques, convencida de que la han olvidado. Todo cambia cuando Bogdana, una bruja de tormentas, comienza a perseguirla por las calles nocturnas, y Suren recibe una inesperada salvación de manos del príncipe Oak, heredero de Elfhamu. Durante años ha sentido animosidad hacia él, a pesar de que debía ser su prometido. El encantador Oak, acostumbrado a manipular a todos a su alrededor, ha venido a pedirle ayuda para su expedición al norte. Aceptar significaría que la joven reina tendría que enfrentar diversas trampas, especialmente al chico que conoció de niña, un príncipe en quien no se puede confiar, y a horrores que debieron permanecer enterrados en el pasado.

Sin embargo, los seres fantásticos no dejan de aparecer por todos los lados, con lo que el Cuaderno será el único recurso con el que cuenten los hermanos Grace.

Se esfuerza por ser buena persona, a pesar de haberse criado con una familia de estafadores en la que mentir es tan natural como respirar.

Pero ahora que su madre se ha fugado, que la chica de la que está enamorado está a punto de ocupar su lugar en la mafia y que nuevos secretos empiezan a salir a la luz, cada vez cuesta más distinguir el bien del mal. Cuando los federales le piden que haga lo único que juró no volver a hacer jamás, Cassel empieza a preguntarse si de verdad son los buenos o si esta vez es a él a quien están timando. De ser así, es posible que tenga que hacer la jugada más arriesgada de su vida: apostar por el amor"--Back cover

"Cassel Sharpe comes from a family of curse workers, people who have the power to change emotions, memories, and luck with the slightest touch of their hands. And since curse work is illegal, they're also all criminals. Many become mobsters and con artists, but not Cassel. He doesn't have magic, so he's an outsider, the straight kid in a crooked family--except for the small detail that he killed his best friend, Lila, three years ago. Cassel has carefully built up a facade of normalcy, blending into the crowd. But his facade starts to crumble when he finds himself sleepwalking, propelled into the night by terrifying dreams about a white cat that wants to tell him something. He's noticing other disturbing things, too, including the strange behavior of his two older brothers, who are keeping secrets from him. As Cassel begins to suspect he's an unwitting pawn in a huge con game, he must unravel his past, and his memories. To find the truth, Cassel will have to out-con the conmen"--

Und dann wäre da noch eine klitzekleine Kleinigkeit, die Lucifer davon abhält, sich ganz auf seine Pianobar in L. A. zu konzentrieren: nach dem Tod Gottes sitzt auf seinem Thron ein Betrüger, ein mächtiges Wesen, das den freien Willen im Universum auslöschen will… Aber Lucifer hat schon immer gern Widerworte gegeben und sieht gar nicht ein, warum er sich ändern sollte, egal, wer da auf dem Thron sitzt. Und zum Glück hat er eine ganze Reihe wunderbarer Freunde und (teils unfreiwilliger) Unterstützer, als er sich in einen Kampf stürzt, der sich von den Höhen der Silberstadt bis in die tiefsten Tiefen der Hölle erstreckt… Das schockierende Finale der neuesten Saga um den gefallenen Engel, geschrieben von den bekannten Autoren Richard Kadrey und Holly Black, mit großartigen Bildern versehen von Lee Garbett, Marco Rudy und Ben Templesmith. Der Band umfasst die Hefte 13-19 der US-Serie.

Soll er versuchen, Aaron von den Toten zurückzuholen? Das könnte er, wenn er sich mit den bösen Mächten einlässt. Aber es ist völlig unklar, welchen Preis er dafür am Ende zahlen muss ...
