On the Moon, you must fight for every inch you want to gain. And that is just what Adriana Corta did.

Pero cuando Mael también se abre a ella, Sauce empieza a sentirse cada vez más confundida. ¿Hasta qué punto está fingiendo y hasta qué punto cuenta los minutos para volver a verle? ¿Por qué se le hacen tan largas las noches sin él? ¿Por qué no se libra del cosquilleo bajo la piel cuando él la roza o se ríe? ¿Se está engañando a sí misma... o siente algo más por él? Y, lo que más le preocupa, ¿y si cuando pueda escapar su corazón le impide hacerlo?

Lunar Descent (Legend Bks.)
by Allen SteeleThe former head of a lunar mining operation returns to the moon and is immediately sucked into a dangerous morass of labor troubles, lies, larceny, and corporate wrongdoing in this wildly entertaining science fiction thrill ride There is big trouble on the moon. The blue-collar working stiffs of Descartes Station, who mine the surface for minerals and the North Pole for water, have become increasingly dissatisfied with Skycorp’s general disregard for its employees’ well-being. Following the most recent spate of layoffs, the labor strike grumblings have only grown louder, so the company is sending former base administrator and recovering alcoholic Lester Riddell back into the fold in an attempt to boost morale and output alike. The truth, however, becomes shockingly apparent to Riddell almost immediately upon his return. Not only has he been unceremoniously dumped into a muddled mess of larceny, piracy, and corporate malfeasance, it appears that Skycorp is purposely setting him up to fail—which could spell finis for Descartes Station and every trash-talking, pot-smoking, porn-loving Vacuum Sucker and Moondog who toils there. But as the Skycorp suits are about to discover, they’ve just made the biggest mistake of their corporate lives—because Lester Riddell is nobody’s fall guy. Three-time Hugo Award winner Allen Steele has seen the near future, and it isn’t pretty—it’s noisy, dirty, dangerous, and chaotic. Thrilling, wildly inventive, delightfully profane, and totally outrageous, Lunar Descent is one hell of rocket ride, with a master of science fiction at the helm.
Lunar Descent
by Allen SteeleThe moondogs are responsible for maintaining Skycorp's most important off-world projects-and now they're going on strike.

Lunar Park (Vintage Contemporaries Ser.)
by Bret Easton EllisUna novela vertiginosa e hipnotizante en la que el enfant terrible de la literatura norteamericana arremete contra su propia biografia. Imagine que se convierte en un autor de gran éxito cuando todavía es universitario. Fama y millones de dólares difuminan la muerte inmediata de su insufrible padre. Fiestas glamurosas en Manhattan, sexo y drogas le sumergen en la vorágine de la autodestrucción. Imagine que poco después tiene una segunda oportunidad, como le sucede a Bret Easton Ellis en Lunar Park: una nueva vida junto a su esposa y sus hijos en un idílico barrio residencial. Sin embargo, todo esto puede cambiar... En una fatídica fiesta de Halloween, Bret Easton Ellis cree ver a uno de sus personajes de ficción más temibles conduciendo un coche como el de su padre, mientras, en la habitación de su hijastra, una muñeca ha cobrado vida. Extrañamente, la casa desprende una atmósfera fantasmal y en el exterior las cosas no parecen ir mejor: se suceden una serie de asesinatos y desapariciones de niños de la misma edad que su hijo. Lunar Park es una obra excepcional en la que se confunden realidad y ficción, y en ella el enfant terrible de la literatura americana arremete contra su propia biografía. Reseñas:«He aquí un libro que avanza desde la oscuridad y la banalidad hacia la luz y la epifanía con una fuerza y seguridad sorprendentes.»Stephen King «Un libro inquietante y real [...] El primer capítulo es la prueba de que no tiene desperdicio, que es droga dura y que, contra el olvido que le auguraran los detractores del escritor, Easton sigue en forma.»Nuria Labari, El Mundo «Adictiva, sublime, exquisita, brillantemente ejecutada [...] Una fantasmagórica fusión de amor y pérdida, de alucinaciones y sabiduría.»The New York Times «En Lunar Park, Ellis supera la frontera de la metaficción introduciéndonos en un modelo narrativo que bien pudiéramos denominar como "psycho-ficción". Las evocaciones que sugiere son tan numerosas como heterogéneas.»José Antonio Gurpegui, El Cultural «Lunar Park es una novela tremendamente entretenida, propulsada por un humor festivo completamente ausente en la escritura de la generación de escritores americanos que sucedió a Ellis.»Matt Thorne, The Independent «Una lectura hipnotizante [...] Verdaderamente aterradora [...] Lunar Park es una historia acerca de ese dolor transcendental que los padres infligen a sus hijos [...] El peor tipo de violencia es aquella que es interna y emocional, y en las bellas páginas finales de esta rica y compleja novela se demuestra que también es el tipo más dañino.»The Miami Herald
