Par J. C Cervantes. 2023
Best-selling author Rick Riordan presents the breathtaking finale to J. C. Cervantes's Maya-inspired Shadow Bruja duology, in which Ren makes…
a bargain for her life. Shadow bruja Ren Santiago was relentlessly pursued by the evil Aztec Lords of Night, who claimed that she was destined to be their queen, a destiny she wasn't willing to accept. So she chose death instead. Too bad death wasn't the answer to her problems. Ren soon realizes she must return to the land of the living to make things right. Unfortunately, that means negotiating with Ixtab, queen of the underworld. Ixtab offers her ten days aboveground in exchange for the discarded crown of jade and shadow. If Ren fails, she will return to the darkness for eternity. Ren agrees, knowing full well that she also has to save her friends Marco, Monty, and Edison and, while she's at it, put those pesky Lords of Night back to sleep forever. The only problem is, Ren lost her shadow magic and time rope when she lost her life. How will Ren manage to accomplish what feels impossible? The answer lies not in manipulating shadows or time, but in recognizing the awesome power that has always been inside her. J. C. Cervantes's trademark humor, incredibly high stakes, fascinating characters, and shocking plot twists are on full display in this epic conclusion of an unputdownable duologyPar Charlaine Harris. 2011
"Depuis que jai été frappée par la foudre, à 15 ans, je suis dotée de capacités hors du commun. Et…
ce nest pas rien ! Je détecte les morts et je peux dire ce qui les a tués mais pas qui les a tués, quand ils ont été assassinés." Harper Connelly a fait de ce don étrange son gagne-pain. Engagée pour retrouver le corps de personnes disparues, elle sillonne les États-Unis avec Tolliver, son demi-frère, manager et protecteur. À Sarne, en Arkansas, où une adolescente est recherchée, Harper sait presque immédiatement que la jeune fille est décédée. Mais le mystère de sa mort comme les secrets de la ville sont bien protégés par la méfiance hostile des habitants." -- 4e de couvPar Kurt Vonnegut. 1971
"Abattoir 5 retrace lhistoire de Billy Pélerin (double quasi autobiographique de Kurt Vonnegut), né à Ilium en 1922, fils unique…
du coiffeur de la petite ville. Appelé sous les drapeaux pendant la seconde guerre mondiale (comme assistant daumonier militaire...), il est capturé par les allemands et fait prisonnier dans un camp à Dresde. Démobilisé en 1945, il devient opticien, passe une petite dépression nerveuse dans un hôpital militaire, puis se marie, a bientôt deux enfants et fait fortune. De retour dun congrès dopticien il est victime dun accident davion, tous les passagers périssent sauf lui. Pendant quil est à la clinique, sa femme meurt. Il ne reprend pas son activité en sortant de lhôpital mais va tout droit à New York. Là, il participe à une émission de radio où il révèle avoir été enlevé par une soucoupe volante en 1967 et amené de force sur la planète Tralfamadore. Objet de spectacle, montré nu dans un zoo, les trafalmadoriens le feront saccoupler avec une terrienne, ancienne actrice de cinéma, elle-même kidnapée, avant de le relâcher. De retour sur terre, il comprend que les années quil a passé sur Trafalmadore nont été chez lui que quelques secondes. Bien sûr, Billy ayant atteint lâge de quatre-vingt six ans, tout le monde est persuadé quil a définitivement perdu le sens des réalités et que la sénilité avance à grands pas. Mais Billy insiste pour remonter dans le passé et raconter son histoire, notamment sa vie de soldat et, ce faisant, il ne va plus cesser alors deffectuer des sauts dans le temps, évoluant et vieillissant, ou régressant vers son enfance. Ce sont ces différents épisodes, et principalement celui de la seconde guerre, de lemprisonnement et du bombardement de Dresde qui font la trame quelque peu décousue, ironique et pleine dhumour de ce roman étonnant où les saynètes se multiplient et senchevêtrent..." -- 4e de couvPar Esme Symes-Smith. 2022
In a magical medieval world filled with dragons, shape-shifters, and witches, a twelve-year-old nonbinary hopeful knight battles for the heart…
of their kingdom. A thrilling middle-grade series opener that explores identity and gender amid sword fights and magic, and proves anyone can be a hero. "These heroes come in all shapes and skills—I cheered for them throughout their exciting journey." —#1 New York Times bestselling author Tamora Pierce When their ex-hero dad is summoned back to the royal capital of Helston to train a hopeless crown prince, Callie lunges at the opportunity to finally prove themself worthy to the kingdom’s "great and powerful." Except the intolerant great and powerful look at nonbinary Callie and only see girl . But Callie has always known exactly what they want to be, and they’re not about to let anything stand in their way. Trapped in Helston’s rigid hierarchy where girls learn magic and boys train as knights, Callie discovers they aren’t alone—there’s Elowen, the chancellor’s brilliant daughter, whose unparalleled power is being stifled; Edwyn, Elowen’s twin brother desperate to win his father’s approval; and Willow, the crown prince who was never meant to be king. In this start to an epic series packed with action, humor, and heart, Callie and their new friends quickly find themselves embedded in an ancient war—and their only hope to defeat the threats outside the kingdom lies in first defeating the bigotry within. "Everything you could possibly want from a middle grade fantasy." — The Nerd DailyPar Greg Rucka. 2003

Drawn deeper into the investigation, Pendergast discovers a long-lost Sherlock Holmes story that may be the key to solving both the mystery of the long-dead miners and the modern-day killings as well.

patience, cunning, and high spirits. Shut up in a trunk by a taciturn old sea captain with a secret, five friends—a king, a wolf, a girl, a boy, and an owl—bicker, boast, and comfort one another in the dark. Individually, they dream of song and light, freedom and flight, purpose and glory, but they all agree they are part of a larger story, bound each to each by chance, bonded by the heart’s mysteries. When at last their shared fate arrives, landing them on a mantel in a blue room in the home of two little girls, the truth is more astonishing than any of them could have imagined.
