Geralt is a Witcher, a man whose magic powers, enhanced by long training and a mysterious elixir, have made him a brilliant fighter and a merciless hunter. Yet he is no ordinary killer. His sole purpose: to destroy the monsters that plague the world. But not everything monstrous-looking is evil and not everything fair is good . . . and in every fairy tale there is a grain of truth.

Card shark Hailey Gordon and ex con Nick Patterson—fresh off uncovering one of the biggest secrets of the Revolutionary War alongside American history professor Adrian Jensen—now find themselves in Philadelphia, immersed in the history of Benjamin Franklin and Paul Revere. The Liberty Bell, Charles Willson Peale’s Museum, and the Tomb of The Unknown Revolutionary Soldier are connected to Franklin in amazing ways. The more they discover, the more shocking the implications become. The long buried secrets Hailey and Nick are chasing have previously only been known by a select few, who would prefer to keep it that way. A woman known as The Heiress—part of a mysterious organization called The Family—is one of these rare historians. After generations of members have failed before her, The Heiress has been tasked to finally unearth the alchemical secrets Revere and Franklin may have discovered during their lifetimes. And she’s not about to let Nick and Hailey get in her way.

Richard Friedenthal, editor y gran amigo de Stefan Zweig, reunió, en“El legado de Europa”, aquellos ensayos en que el escritor austríaco rinde homenaje a los artistas que supieron expresar la esencia de la conciencia común europea. Tras la fragmentación de esa patria compartida que fue Europa, Zweig la reconstruyó en el único mundo que le era posible, el del espíritu. En esta reconstrucción le ayudaron aquellos autores que fueron sus compañeros de viaje: Montaigne, Chateaubriand, Wassermann, Rilke, Roth... Artistas y amigos que, a modo de herencia, nos lega para inmortalizarlos en el tiempo, para que permanezcan imperecederamenteen nuestra conciencia.

Edición especial de la Real Academia Española.

Con la presente edición de su Teatro completo, que permite, por primera vez, la consulta de la edición facsimilar y dactilográfica, realizamos un extenso recorrido que se inicia con Los Topos y termina con La piedra cansada. En total son doce obras póstumas en las que las influencias de autores como Piscator, Eisenstein, Kirshon o Tairov van a ser decisivas a la hora de dar respuesta a una nueva concepción de los espacios escénicos, al igual que ya estaba operando desde su poesía ese «asalto al lenguaje», «el habla plural» que le convertiría en uno de los herederos de la universalidad.

After her role in taking down a well-placed mole inside the CIA, Agent Lyndsey Duncan arrives in London fully focused on her newest Russian asset, deadly war criminal Dmitri Tarasenko. That is until her MI6 counterpart, Davis Ranford, personally calls for her help. Following a suspicious attack on Russian oligarch Mikhail Rotenberg's property in a tony part of London, Davis needs Lyndsey to cozy up to the billionaire's aristocratic British wife, Emily Rotenberg. Fortunately for Lyndsey, there's little to dissuade Emily from taking in a much-needed confidante. Even being one of the richest women in the world is no guarantee of happiness. But before Lyndsey can cover much ground with her newfound friend, the CIA unveils a perturbing connection between Mikhail and Russia's geoplitical past, one that could upend the world order and jeopardize Lyndsey's longtime allegiance to the Agency. Red London is a sharp and nuanced race-against-the-clock story ripped from today's headlines, a testament to author Alma Katsu’s thirty-five-year career in national security. It’s a rare spy novel written by an insider that feels as prescient as it is page-turning and utterly unforgettable.
