INFANTILES Y JUVENILES

ELLOS USAN LA MAGIA PARA SILENCIAR EL MUNDO A los diecisiete años, Shae ha tenido una vida relativamente tranquila. Vive con su madre, bromea con su mejor amiga Fiona y con Mads, el chico que siempre sabe cómo hacerla sonreír. Aparentemente, Shae mantiene bajo control su miedo a la Mancha, esa enfermedad mortal transmitida por la tinta. Pero tras la muerte de su hermano pequeño, extraños sueños que parecen convertirse en realidad y un grupo de hombres justicieros llamados Bardos, que dicen usar la magia de la Palabra para mantener a su pueblo en paz, la acechan cada segundo. Cuando su madre es asesinada, ya no puede seguir fingiendo que todo está bien.

Simmering with magic, peril, romance, and heartbreak."—Leigh Bardugo, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Shadow and Bone Born without a trace of magic, Tamsin Lark is no match for the sorceresses and Hollowers who populate the magical underground of Boston. But when the only parent she’s ever known disappears without so much as a goodbye, she has no choice but to join in their cutthroat pursuit of enchanted relics to keep herself—and her brother, Cabell—alive. Ten years later, rumors are swirling that her guardian found a powerful ring from Arthurian legend just before he vanished. A run-in with her rival Emrys ignites Tamsin’s hope that the ring could free Cabell from a curse that threatens both of them. But they aren’t the only ones who covet the ring. As word spreads, greedy Hollowers start circling, and many would kill to have it for themselves. While Emrys is the last person Tamsin would choose to partner with, she needs all the help she can get to edge out her competitors in the race for the ring. Together, they dive headfirst into a vipers’ nest of dark magic, exposing a deadly secret with the power to awaken ghosts of the past and shatter her last hope of saving her brother.

Montserrat has always been overlooked. She's a talented sound editor, but she's left out of the boys' club running the film industry in '90s Mexico City. And she's all-but-invisible to her best friend Tristán, a charming if faded soap opera star, even though she's been in love with him since childhood. Then Tristán discovers his new neighbour is the cult horror director Abel Urueta, and the legendary auteur claims he has a way to change their lives - even if his tales of a Nazi occultist imbuing magic into highly volatile silver nitrate stock sounds like sheer fantasy. The magic film was never finished, which is why, Urueta swears, his career vanished overnight. He is cursed. Now the director wants Montserrat and Tristán to help him shoot the missing scene and lift the curse... but Montserrat soon notices a dark presence following her, and Tristán begins seeing the ghost of his ex-girlfriend... As they work together to unravel the mystery of the film and the obscure occultist who once roamed their city, Montserrat and Tristan might find out that sorcerers and magic are not only the stuff of movies...
