Un western experimental sobre el célebre duelo en el O.K. corral que retrata con sostenido brío un mundo de personajes sumidos en la violencia. El célebre y legendario duelo de O.K. corral, en la localidad de Tombstone (Arizona), inmortalizado en decenas de películas, sirve de pretexto a Cela para escribir, contra todo pronóstico, un particularísimo western que se cuenta entre sus novelas más portentosas. El monólogo alucinado de Wendell Espana, un hombre sin apenas cultura en cuya memoria pululan infinidad de personajes y anécdotas, se traduce en una letanía de enormidades, llena de salvajismo, de violencia, de sexo, de bestialidad, en la que, sin renunciar nunca al humor, Cela da rienda suelta a su vena más transgresora y formalmente más extrema.

Vox Machina enjoy a week in Westruun’s lap of luxury leading up to the Winter’s Crest Festival. But that costs coin, which has a bad habit of running out, so they join an underground fighting ring and bash their way to cash. Unfortunately, their ring-fighting turns out to be just a warm-up for a cold reality when a mysterious attack on Winter’s Crest festivities leaves the whole town magically frozen—including one of their own. Vox Machina will have to save the day again, against a much bigger foe than they first realized!

Veth Brenatto doesn’t have an exciting life, but she likes it that way. Unlike her childhood, it’s safe. Predictable. And her husband and son love her almost as fiercely as she loves them. But Veth’s cozy existence is turned on its head when she and her family are captured by raiders. In order to save them, Veth will commit an atrocity that will sever her from all that she loves––maybe forever––and lead her to become Nott the Brave of the Mighty Nein.
