Reeves, Keanu

In the present day, a U.S. black-ops group has promised him they can help with that. And all he needs to do is help them in return. But when an all-too-mortal soldier comes back to life, the impossible event ultimately points toward a force even more mysterious than B himself. One at least as strong. And one with a plan all its own.

Navola

Bacigalupi, Paolo

In Navola, a bustling city-state dominated by a handful of influential families, business is power, and power is everything. For generations, the di Regulai family—merchant bankers with a vast empire—has nurtured tendrils that stretch to the farthest reaches of the known world. And though they claim not to be political, their staggering wealth has bought cities and toppled kingdoms. Soon, Davico di Regulai will be expected to take the reins of power from his father and demonstrate his mastery of the games of Navolese diplomacy: knowing who to trust and who to doubt, and how to read what lies hidden behind a smile. But in Navola, strange and ancient undercurrents lurk behind the gilt and grandeur—like the fossilized dragon eye in the family’s possession, a potent symbol of their raw power and a talisman that seems to be summoning Davico to act.

Los Cantos de Maldoror

Ducasse, Isidore (la

Los Cantos de Maldoror es una de las más atípicas y sorprendentes obras de la literatura. El libro fue escrito entre 1868 y 1869 y publicado ese mismo año. El autor de los cantos moriría un año después de publicados. Los ecos de estas páginas irán aumentando a lo largo del siglo XX, en particular por el impulso de André Breton, que vio en ese libro «la expresión de una revelación total que parece exceder las posibilidades humanas». Así, los surrealistas consideraron al libro como un precursor.

Babilonia

Calder, Richard

Babilonia (Babylon, Richard Calder, 2006) nos transporta hasta el Whitechapel de 1888, hasta un Londres victoriano por el que campa a sus anchas Jack el Destripador. Allí, nos encontraremos con Madeleine Fell, nuestra protagonista, una joven que siempre ha soñado, desde que era pequeña, con Babilonia, pero no con la Babilonia en la que se había convertido, por su degeneración, parte de ese Londres victoriano en el que vive, sino con una Babilonia Mesopotámica existente en una dimensión paralela que se comunica con nuestro plano existencial por medio de unos Portales Interdimensionales: un mundo poblado y gobernado por las prostitutas sagradas de Ishtar, un mundo tan exótico, alienígena y subyugante, como peligroso, oscuro y mortal. Mitología mesopotámica, ocultismo nazi, conspiración Illuminati, la sempiterna unión del Eros y el Tánatos, la búsqueda de la propia identidad en la adolescencia, o la exaltación del amor fou, son algunos de los elementos de los que el talentoso y visionario Richard Calder se vale para componer una obra tan sensual, decadente, barroca, embriagadora, impactante, excesiva, mágica y bizarra, como lo es Babilonia. Ojo, no es este un libro para todos los paladares ni para todos los lectores, pero aquellos que sepan (o se atrevan) entrar en su juego, saldrán fascinados.

Gio is captured and taken back to his old laboratory in the City of Electric Dreams. So together, the rest of Vic’s assembled family must journey across an unforgiving and otherworldly country to rescue Gio from decommission, or worse, reprogramming.Along the way to save Gio, amid conflicted feelings of betrayal and affection for Hap, Vic must decide for himself: Can he accept love with strings attached?Inspired by Carlo Collodi's The Adventures of Pinocchio, and like Swiss Family Robinson meets Wall-E, In the Lives of Puppets is a masterful stand-alone fantasy adventure from the beloved author who brought you The House in the Cerulean Sea and Under the Whispering Door.

Crònica d'uns quants temps

Munné-Jordà, Antoni

A principi dels anys 1950, quan la ciència-ficció, que s'havia divulgat sobretot en revistes, va començar a conquerir l'espai del llibre, es van publicar alguns reculls de contes relacionats per alguna idea però independents en origen, sense voluntat de text unitari. És el cas de les Cròniques marcianes de Ray Bradbury (1950) i Jo, robot d'Isaac Asimov (1951). Amb Crònica d'uns quants temps fem una operació semblant. Es tracta de dinou relats escrits entre 1973 i 2023, alguns inèdits, altres publicats en revistes o en llibres col·lectius, que endreçats d'acord amb una cronologia ideal configuren la crònica imaginada d'unes situacions no viscudes, o no viscudes encara per una humanitat tanmateix identificable.

The memory librarian
Avui -5% en Llibres

Monae, Janelle

In The Memory Librarian music, fashion, film and futurist icon Janelle Monáe returns to the Afrofuturistic world of her critically acclaimed album, Dirty Computer, to explore how different threads of liberation – queerness, race, gender plurality, love – become tangled in a totalitarian landscape… and to discover costs of unravelling them.Whoever controls our memories controls the future.Janelle Monáe and an incredible array of talented collaborating creators have written a collection of tales comprising the bold vision and powerful themes that have made Monáe such a compelling and celebrated storyteller. Dirty Computer introduced a world in which thoughts – as a means of self-conception – could be controlled or erased by a select few. And whether human, A.I., or other, your life and sentience was dictated by those who’d convinced themselves they had the right to decide your fate.That was until Jane 57821 decided to remember and break free.Expanding from that mythos, these stories fully explore what it’s like to live in such a totalitarian existence… and what it takes to get out of it. Building off the traditions of speculative writers such as Octavia Butler, Ted Chiang, Becky Chambers, and Nnedi Okorafor―and filled with the artistic genius and powerful themes that have made Monáe a worldwide icon in the first place – The Memory Librarian serves readers tales grounded in the human trials of identity expression, technology, and love, but also reaching through to the worlds of memory and time within, and the stakes and power that exists there.
