Rinse and Repeat

by Amberly Smith

After reliving the same day sixty-two times, Repeater Peat Harris is about to give up on his latest case: saving Jake Schwinn.

El río del Edén

by José María Merino

Una historia conmovedora de un padre y su hijo adolescente que te robará el corazón. XI Premio de la Crítica de Castilla y León Mejor novela de 2012 según El Cultural de El Mundo «Dicen que un ser humano tarda poco más de ocho segundos en enamorarse, y mientras mirabas y escuchabas a aquella chica, sentiste hacia ella ese invencible afán de proximidad con que el amor se reviste cuando surge.» En compañía de su hijo Silvio, Daniel recorre los parajes del Alto Tajo, lugar legendario en el que piensa esparcir las cenizas de su esposa. Son los mismos lugares en que el hombre y la mujer, en su primera juventud, compartieron una fuerte pasión amorosa. Al hilo de la caminata, el hombre recuerda su emocionante historia de amor, traición y arrepentimiento. Narrada desde una «segunda persona» que compone a la vez un flujo de conciencia y una narración objetiva, esta nueva novela de José María Merino vuelve a confrontar los ámbitos ajenos e indiferentes de la naturaleza -los espacios naturales- con ese desasosiego sentimental y moral que está en la sustancia misma del ser humano. El río del Edén conforma un drama amoroso y familiar muy propio de los tiempos que vivimos, y que sin embargo mantiene vigentes aspectos de la realidad que han sido permanentes estímulos para la ficción literaria. La crítica ha dicho...«En El río del Edén Merino vuelve a completar otra gran novela, con una historia de amor en múltiples sentidos (conyugal, paterno-filial...), construida con bien dosificada intriga.»Angel Basanta, El Mundo «Que un libro de José María Merino destaque no es noticia; que lo haga con un tema así de difícil merece ser resaltado.»J. M. Pozuelo Yvancos, ABC «Merino cuaja una obra sobresaliente protagonizada por los recuerdos.»Jesús Ferrer, La Razón

A magical fantasy romance set in Arthurian England from the Philip K. Dick Award–winning author of Reclamation and The Other Sister. An epic series featuring the women of Camelot begins with this tale of forbidden magic and enduring love. Lady Risa of the Morelands has already caught the eyes and won the hearts of many suitors. Not one of them, though, can gain the approval of her father, Lord Rygehil. When Risa discovers his secret—that he promised her to the necromancer Euberacon—she is furious, and terrified. Refusing to be a sacrifice, Risa runs away rather than submit to her fate. But Euberacon is determined to claim his bride, and Risa’s raw courage and archery skills are no match for his magic. Lucky for her, she is not alone. Sir Gawain, fearless captain of King Arthur’s Round Table will never refuse a fight—or a chance to save a beautiful maiden. But no matter how distressed she is, Risa isn’t an ordinary damsel, and even in the midst of battle she poses no ordinary risk to Gawain’s gallant heart. But Euberacon will not surrender his prize without a fight. Risa and Gawain are quickly ensnared in his web of poisonous enchantments. His deadly magics may destroy their lives, their love, and all Camelot with them. Praise for Risa: In Camelot’s Shadow “Based on the famous poem, ‘Sir Gawain and the Green Knight,’ this novel delivers passion, danger, and excitement laced with fantasy.” —RT Book Reviews “Absorbing and exciting.” —Analog “Zettel’s artful combination of romance and . . . adventures is truly magical to read and is accessible to even those unfamiliar with Arthurian writings.” —Historical Novel Society
