Sinopsis de HIGHFIRE

A hell of a lot of fun . . . packed with vivid, authentic-feeling characters driven by distinctive, sassy voices marinated in Cajun spice and a brackish atmosphere. . . Part Pratchett, part Gaiman, part American Pie * SFX * Charming characters, lots of action and ridiculous conversations made this a hugely enjoyable read * The Bookish Gurl * Fun, interesting and entertaining . . . truly an amazing read * KBook Reviews * Brilliant . . . I highly recommend you read Highfire, it's the dragon tale I never knew I needed * Not Another Book Blogger * Highly recommend * Don Jimmy Reviews * A delightfully funny page-turner * Booklist Starred Review * Witty, well-developed characters, action, and fantastic violence from the author of the Artemis Fowl series will appeal to a wide range of readers * Library Journal * Hilarious and suspenseful . . . Highfire is funny, menacing and unlike anything else I've read recently * BookPage Magazine * Having grown up reading the Artemis Fowl books and absolutely loving them, I just had to read Eoin's first adult fantasy book and it did not disappoint! . . . This book is dark, brutal and violent at times, but also filled with hope and finding where you belong. * The Tsundoku Chronicles * Colfer has come up with something new here, a real genre-blending treat, and I applaud him for it * Peter McLean, author of Priest of Bones on HIGHFIRE * A twisty, tongue-in-cheek fantasy that's part thriller, part action movie, and wholly irreverent. . . . Colfer's catchy narrative voice suits the characters and their setting perfectly, capturing Vern's world-weary nature, Squib's youthful adaptability, and Hooke's malicious cunning. This no-holds-barred yarn is good fun from start to finish * Publishers Weekly * A fun, unusual contemporary fantasy that doesn't skimp on violence *

Especificaciones del producto



Escrito por Eoin Colfer


Eoin Colfer (Wexford, Irlanda, 1965) ha escrito la serie de novelas de Artemis Fowl, que figuran en las listas de los libros más vendidos en todo el mundo, y han sido traducidas a cuarenta lenguas–casi todas habladas por seres humanos–, yThe Wish ListyThe Supernaturalist and Half Moon Investigations, que ha dado lugar a una popular serie de la BBC. Se ha hecho acreedor a numerosos premios, como el Libro Infantil del Año en Gran Bretaña y en Alemania. Y una cosa más... es el primer libro de Eoin Colfer para adultos. Y ha descubierto que es una experiencia muy parecida a escribir para niños y adolescentes... sólo que casi no se usan frases como «¡Yo no tengo la culpa!» y «¡No me entendéis, nadie me entiende!».© Michael Paynter
