Anhelo. Serie Crave-1 (Spanish Edition) / Crave (the Crave Series. Book 1)
Tu nueva obsesión. Lo vas a devorar.
Una historia de vampiros más adictiva que Crepúsculo.Aquí todo es raro: la escuela, los alumnos. En este sitio nada tiene sentido, y aquí estoy, una simple mortal entre dioses... o monstruos. Todavía no sé a qué bando pertenezco, si es que pertenezco a alguno... Solo sé que lo que les une a todos es su odio hacia mí.
Pero entre ellos está Jaxon Vega, un vampiro con oscuros secretos que no ha sentido nada durante un siglo. Algo en él me atrae, algo roto que encaja con lo que hay roto en mí, lo cual podría significar el fin del mundo. Porque Jaxon despareció por una razón, y parece que alguien quiere despertar al monstruo dormido, y me pregunto si me trajeron a este lugar intencionadamente como anzuelo... .
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
My whole
world changed when I stepped inside the academy. Nothing is right about this
place or the other students in it. Here I am, a mere mortal among gods...or
monsters. I still can't decide which of these warring factions I belong to, if
I belong at all. I only know the one thing that unites them is their hatred of
me.Then
there's Jaxon Vega. A vampire with deadly secrets who hasn't felt anything for
a hundred years. But there's something about him that calls to me, something
broken in him that somehow fits with what's broken in me.
Which could
spell death for us all. Because Jaxon walled himself off for a reason. And now
someone wants to wake a sleeping monster, and I'm wondering if I was brought
here intentionally―as the bait.Sold out -

From a Buick 8
The #1 New York Times bestseller from Stephen King--a novel about the fascination deadly things have for us and about our insistence on answers when there are none...Since 1979, the state police of Troop D in rural Pennsylvania have kept a secret in the shed out behind the barracks. Ennis Rafferty and Curtis Wilcox had answered a strange call just down the road and came back with an abandoned 1953 Buick Roadmaster. Curt Wilcox knew old cars, and this one was...just wrong. As it turned out, the Buick 8 was worse than dangerous--and the members of Troop D decided that it would be better if the public never found out about it. Now, more than twenty years later, Curt's son Ned starts hanging around the barracks and is allowed into the Troop D family. And one day he discovers the family secret--a mystery that begins to stir once more, not only in the minds and hearts of these veteran troopers, but out in the shed as well, for there's more power under the hood than anyone can handle.... -
Fearsome Fairies: Haunting Tales of the Fae
Fearsome Fairies taps into the enormous fascination with fairies in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, and includes cornerstone authors of the Weird genre such as Arthur Machen, M R James and Charlotte Riddell.
You see - no, you do not, but I see - such curious faces: and the people to whom they belong flit about so oddly, often at your elbow when you least expect it, and looking close into your face, as if they were searching for someone - who may be thankful, I think, if they do not find him.
There was an enormous fascination with fairies in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries which popularised depictions of benevolent, butterfly-winged beings and glittering pantomime figures. But the fae have always had a more sinister side. Taking inspiration from folk tales and medieval legends, the works of weird tale and ghost story writers such as Arthur Machen, M. R. James, Angela Carter and Charlotte Riddell show that fairies, goblins and other supernatural entities could be something far more unsettling.
Delving into a frightening realm of otherworldly creatures from banshees to changelings, this new collection of stories revives and revels in the fearsome power of the fairy folk.

The Living Dead
"A horror landmark and a work of gory genius."--Joe Hill, New York Times bestselling author of The Fireman
George A. Romero invented the modern zombie with Night of the Living Dead, creating a monster that has become a key part of pop culture. Romero often felt hemmed in by the constraints of film-making. To tell the story of the rise of the zombies and the fall of humanity the way it should be told, Romero turned to fiction. Unfortunately, when he died, the story was incomplete. Enter Daniel Kraus, co-author, with Guillermo del Toro, of the New York Times bestseller The Shape of Water (based on the Academy Award-winning movie) and Trollhunters (which became an Emmy Award-winning series), and author of The Death and Life of Zebulon Finch (an Entertainment Weekly Top 10 Book of the Year). A lifelong Romero fan, Kraus was honored to be asked, by Romero's widow, to complete The Living Dead. Set in the present day, The Living Dead is an entirely new tale, the story of the zombie plague as George A. Romero wanted to tell it. It begins with one body. A pair of medical examiners find themselves battling a dead man who won't stay dead. It spreads quickly. In a Midwestern trailer park, a Black teenage girl and a Muslim immigrant battle newly-risen friends and family. On a US aircraft carrier, living sailors hide from dead ones while a fanatic makes a new religion out of death. At a cable news station, a surviving anchor keeps broadcasting while his undead colleagues try to devour him. In DC, an autistic federal employee charts the outbreak, preserving data for a future that may never come. Everywhere, people are targeted by both the living and the dead. We think we know how this story ends. We. Are. Wrong.
New York Times bestselling author Daniel Kraus completes George A. Romero's brand-new masterpiece of zombie horror, the massive novel left unfinished at Romero's death! -
