La esperada novela de la primera mujer china ganadora de un Premio Hugo.
«El mundo de Hao Jingfang es único. En el resplandeciente desierto rojo de Marte, todos tus sueños en blanco y negro se transforman en color... y estos son los colores más maravillosos que puede describir la ciencia ficción.»
CIXIN LIU, autor de El problema de los tres cuerpos
Un siglo después de que Marte declarara su independencia de la Tierra y fundara la república marciana, un grupo de adolescentes es enviado a la Tierra como delegación del planeta rojo, en un intento por reconciliar dos mundos incompatibles en sus ideales, economías y sistemas sociopolíticos. Pero cuando estos chicos regresan a casa, se ven atrapados entre dos mundos y no consiguen ofrecer esperanza de una coexistencia pacífica. Casi de inmediato, las negociaciones entre Marte y la Tierra se ven truncadas y surgen viejas enemistades.
Tras un viaje a la Tierra que pondrá a prueba todo lo que conocía hasta ahora, una bailarina de Marte cuestiona sus lealtades y asume la carga de descubrir la verdad entre la red de mentiras tejida entre las facciones de ambos planetas. Al hacerlo, deberá trazar un nuevo curso entre la historia y el futuro que se está generando a su alrededor. Si ella falla, todo lo que siempre ha amado podría desaparecer.
One night changes everything…
Livia Hart is a woman gutted by tragedy. Craving escape from her grief and guilt, she travels to Europe for the vacation she's dreamt about for years.
In a London pub, she meets a handsome stranger, Lucian Llewellyn. Lucian promises her an unforgettable night of bliss…and more: the gift of immortality, to be reborn as a vampire.
Livia embraces her new role as a powerful predator, hiding in plain sight and preying on the dregs of human society—rapists, murderers, abusers. She’s welcomed into a world where vampires refuse to mourn their existence.
But secrets from Lucian’s past threaten Livia’s newfound happiness. Can she survive in her new life knowing the truth? Or will the revelations condemn her to an eternity of regret?
Leaving his troubles behind, Aaron Turner settles down to run a men’s clothing store. Unfortunately, his lawyer and the One God have other plans.

Getting his revenge felt great. Right up until the bills came due.
Alex and his quantum-powered AI companion might have broken free from Apollo’s threat to shut him down, but he is still on the hook for millions he doesn’t have, and the mega-corp isn’t going to forgive and forget. Desperate to keep his freedom and his company afloat as their illegal funds dry up, Alex tags along with the Black Flags on a mercenary contract on the other side of the globe.
Physically recovered but still coming to grips with the synthetic part of himself, Alex struggles to adapt to what his life and body have become. Stuck in a losing battle with his inner demons, he and Sophie gather resources and allies as they prepare to wage war against the rogue artificial intelligence that threatens the world.
His actions do not go unnoticed, however, and he soon finds him caught in a lethal game of cat and mouse. Firmly in the crosshairs again, can Alex survive the new threats against him without losing himself in the process?

Our empire is built on lies.
The Senate is in chaos. The Republic is falling from within, a corrupted shell around a rotted core. Abhorrent espers control humans like pawns. The Republic Navy is in open rebellion. The Tyche rides solar wind, seeking allies. If they don’t find them, humanity will fall.
An ancient transmission is discovered from beyond the charted edge of the hard black. It is not Ezeroc, who need no technology to communicate. Grace Gushiken and Nathan Chevell take the free trader Tyche on a desperate mission. Find the source of the signal, and with it, hope. The war against the Ezeroc is not one humans can win alone.
Flying on borrowed time, Grace and Nate discover an ancient space station. It holds horrors from the Old Empire. These secrets are better left hidden, for they lead the Tyche to the heart of Ezeroc space. They find an alien homeworld hungry for war.
With the Ezeroc menace poised for victory, will Grace and Nate be able to save humanity? Or will their luck finally give out?
Tyche’s Crown is the third instalment in Richard Parry’s gripping Ezeroc Wars series. If you like page-turning space opera with great dialogue and heart-pumping action, get your copy today!

John and his circle of friends, wanted dead by the new ruler of the world, suddenly have their one and only sanctuary infiltrated and destroyed.
Yet this catastrophe is also an opportunity for the group of teenagers to do what their elders have so far failed to do, and topple the tyrant once and for all.
With the Woodward Base destroyed by Arnold Hammerson and his soldiers, John and his friends must take what little magic they have and put it to most effective use.
But a problem remains: how to do what they know must be done? The problem is far too big to be solved with a single stroke of spellwork, as our heroes soon discover.
Their only real chance is to put to use a piece of knowledge which almost no one in the world knows about, even though it would result in certain death for all of them if they fail.
The Blazing World by Margaret Cavendish is, all at once, a satire, a treatise on natural philosophy, a work of proto-science fiction, and a defiant venture into a scientific world where women were not usually allowed. It tells the tale of a young Lady who is kidnapped by a man that tries to sail away with her. Through divine interference, however, the ship is tossed into a storm and everyone but the Lady perishes. Blown up to the North Pole, she inadvertently passes into to another world, the Blazing World, where she is almost immediately made supreme ruler. As the Lady begins to exercise her will, Cavendish lays out her own Utopia and discusses a wide range of scientific, political, social, and religious topics. But when a war breaks out in her home world, what will the Lady do with all power of the Blazing World behind her?
