From #1 New York Times bestselling author Brandon Sanderson comes a legendary standalone novel that navigates the seas and the stars of a far-future Cosmere. Illustrated by Esther Hi'ilani Candari.All his life, Sixth of the Dusk has been a traditional trapper of Aviar - the supernatural birds his people bond with - on the deadly island of Patji. Then one fateful night he propels his people into a race to modernize before they can be conquered by the Ones Above, invaders from the stars who want to exploit the Aviar.But it's a race they're losing, and Dusk fears his people will lose themselves in the effort. When a chance comes to sail into the expanse of the emberdark beyond a mystical portal, Dusk sets off to find his people's salvation with only a canoe, his birds, and all the grit and canniness of a Patji trapper.Elsewhere in the emberdark is a young dragon chained in human form: Starling of the starship Dynamic. She and her ragtag crew of exiles are deep in debt and on the brink of losing their freedom. So when she finds an ancient map to a hidden portal between the emberdark and the physical realm, she seizes the chance at a lucrative discovery.These unlikely allies might just be the solution to each other's crises. In their search for independence, Dusk and Starling face perilous bargains, poisonous politics, and the destructive echo of a dead god.In this beautiful new tale, Sanderson expands his thrilling novella Sixth of the Dusk into a mythic novel of legends, lore, and warring galactic superpowers.

Die Zahl derer, die im 18. November feststecken, wird immer groer. Tara Selter wohnt mit einer Handvoll Zeitgefangener in einer Villa in Bremen, doch beinahe taglich klopfen neue Menschen an die Tur. Langsam wird klar, dass es weltweit viel mehr Personen gibt, die nicht am 19. aufwachen, als zunachst angenommen. Weitere Gruppen bestehen in Osnabruck, aber auch in Luttich, Lugano und Lyon. Die regelmaigen Treffen der Bremer Runde werden genutzt, um eine gemeinsame Sprache zu entwickeln, in der sich alle uber ihre auergewohnliche Lage austauschen konnen. Denn hat es Sinn, in einer Zeit, die keine Jahre und Jahreszeiten kennt, von Wochen und Monaten zu sprechen? Und wie sollten sie sich selbst nennen, wie die anderen? Loopers und noopers, tracers und erasers? Doch mit dem steten Zustrom von Neuankommlingen werden die Diskussionen um linguistische Spitzfindigkeiten bald verdrangt durch ethische Fragen, die die Bewohner und ihre zahlreichen Besucher umtreiben: Gilt es, die Gelegenheit beim Schopf zu packen, um tagliche Tragodien in der Welt zu verhindern, oder sich den Risiken des eigenen Alterwerdens zu widmen? Es ist nicht nur die Verletzbarkeit von Tara und ihren Freunden, die Sorgen bereitet, sondern auch die Gefahr, die von ihnen ausgeht denn im Gegensatz zum Handeln der anderen, deren Tag stets von Neuem beginnt, bleibt das ihre nicht ohne Folgen.

Dieses Buch gibt es in zwei Versionen: mit und ohne Farbschnitt. Sobald die Farbschnitt-Ausgabe ausverkauft ist, liefern wir die Ausgabe ohne Farbschnitt aus.Robert Langdon, Symbolforscher aus Harvard, begleitet seine Freundin Katherine Solomon nach Prag. Katherine bereitet die Veroffentlichung eines Buches vor, das bahnbrechende Entdeckungen uber die wahre Natur des menschlichen Bewusstseins offenbart. Doch ein brutaler Mord sturzt die Reise in ein unvorhersehbares Chaos, und Katherine verschwindet plotzlich, ebenso ihr Manuskript. Langdon sieht sich fortan einer machtigen Organisation gegenuber und wird von einem unheimlichen Angreifer verfolgt, der aus Prags altester Mythologie entsprungen zu sein scheint und nur ein Ziel verfolgt: gnadenlose Rache.

Tara Selter is no longer alone.Tara Selter has lived the eighteenth of November 1,143 times when she notices a break in the pattern: a man has changed his shirt. The man is Henry Dale, and he remembers all the days that have come before. He knows that time has fallen out of joint. Now they are two of a kind - trapped in the eighteenth of November, but no longer alone.Together they learn to share their present; their voices grow hoarse recounting their small battles against it and their bewilderment at the disintegrating world. Henry sees things differently to Tara: he does not think that time will put itself back together and he does not think that the future will come around. But he makes her realise that she is no longer the same person she was before this fault in time. And he makes her believe that there may be others to find within it.

L''attesissimo ritorno di Robert Langdon.A otto anni dal suo ultimo libro, Origin, Dan Brown torna con un thriller di grande forza.Una nuova, travolgente storia del maestro assoluto del genere.Mentre si trova a Praga con Katherine Solomon, studiosa di scienze noetiche e sua compagna, Robert Langdon si ritrova allimprovviso in un incubo: Katherine e sparita dalla camera dalbergo senza lasciare traccia. E non si tratta di un banale rapimento: forze occulte, attive dallalba della storia, sono responsabili della scomparsa. Tra antichi castelli, grandi cattedrali e labirinti sotterranei, Langdon si trova a esplorare il lato oscuro della citta, deciso a portare alla luce segreti rimasti celati per secoli. Ma la sfida che gli si para davanti si rivelera diversa, e ancora piu difficile, di quelle che ha vinto in passato. Una sfida per salvare non solo la propria vita e quella di Katherine, ma il destino dellumanita intera.

From the Academy Award-winning actor and #1 New York Times bestselling author of Greenlights comes an inspiring, faith-filled, and often hilarious collection of personal poetry and prayers about navigating the rodeo of life and chasing down the original dream, belief.My prayers are my poems are my prayers.I've always relied on logic to make sense of myself and the world.A prescriptionist at heart, I've always looked to reason to find the rhyme, the practical to get to the mystical, the choreography to find the dance, the proof to get to the truth, and reality to get to the dream.I've been finding that tougher to do lately. It's more than hard to know what to believe in; it's hard to believe.But I don't want to quit believing, and I don't want to stop believing in . . . humanity, you, myself, our potential.

Una dona gran comença a perdre la memoria, i el seu fill decideix dur-la a una residencia. Alla, i contra tot pronostic, mentre els records s?esvaeixen progressivament, tindra l?oportunitat de viure una intensa ?i probablement darrera? historia d?amor. Una comedia commovedora de Marc Artigau i Queralt sobre l?amor i el desig a l?anomenada tercera edat, sobre els camins erratics d?una memoria que es desfa com un castell de sorra i sobre aquells que tenen cura, tan be com saben, de les persones que estimen.

Aproximadament dos quilos i mig ens presenta tres parelles entusiastes dels viatges que, el 3 de febrer de 2020, coincideixen en una zona d?espera a l?aeroport Adolfo Suárez Madrid-Barajas, després que un incident cancel·li temporalment tots els vols. Al conversar entre ells, acaben parlant de les persones que han mort durant els viatges que han fet: Mor gent cada dia a tot arreu. Un d?ells, de sobte, es fixa en un grup de quatre homes adults. El mateix dia, al mateix moment i al mateix aeroport, aquest grup de quatre homes observara les tres parelles. En aquest intercanvi de mirades separades per planols metafisics diferents, la novel·la es desplegara en capitols ambientats en temps anteriors i posteriors. En cada un d?ells, les tres parelles viatjaran a diferents indrets i es veuran condicionades per la mort de persones anonimes o reconegudes com ara Umberto Eco, Johnny Hallyday o el president de Nintendo Satoru Iwata. Aproximadament dos quilos i mig es, com s?esmenta a la pel·licula 21 gramos, el pes de l?anima quan algu mor.
