by Robin Hobb

The second book in a seafaring fantasy trilogy that George R. R. Martin has described as &“even better than the Farseer Trilogy—I didn&’t think that was possible.&” As the ancient tradition of Bingtown&’s Old Traders slowly erodes under the cold new order of a corrupt ruler, the Vestrits anxiously await the return of their liveship—a rare magic ship carved from sentient wizardwood, which bonds the ships mystically with those who sail them. And Althea Vestrit waits even more avidly, living only to reclaim the ship as her lost inheritance and captain her on the high seas. But the Vivacia has been seized by the ruthless pirate captain Kennit, who holds Althea&’s nephew and his father hostage. Althea and her onetime sea mate Brashen resolve to liberate the liveship—but their plan may prove more dangerous than leaving the Vivacia in Kennit&’s ambitious grasp.Don&’t miss the magic of the Liveship Traders Trilogy:SHIP OF MAGIC • MAD SHIP • SHIP OF DESTINY

MaddAddam (The MaddAddam Trilogy #3)

by Margaret Atwood

For fans of the first two books and readers of Margaret Atwood's fiction in general. Bringing together characters from Oryx and Crake and The Year of the Flood, this thrilling conclusion to Margaret Atwood's speculative fiction trilogy confirms the ultimate endurance of humanity, community, and love. Months after the Waterless Flood pandemic has wiped out most of humanity, Toby and Ren have rescued their friend Amanda from the vicious Painballers. They return to the MaddAddamite cob house, which is being fortified against man and giant Pigoon alike. Accompanying them are the Crakers, the gentle, quasi-human species engineered by the brilliant but deceased Crake. While their reluctant prophet, Jimmy -- Crake's one-time friend -- recovers from a debilitating fever, it's left to Toby to narrate the Craker theology, with Crake as Creator. She must also deal with cultural misunderstandings, terrible coffee, and her jealousy over her lover, Zeb.Meanwhile, Zeb searches for Adam One, founder of the God's Gardeners, the pacifist green religion from which Zeb broke years ago to lead the MaddAddamites in active resistance against the destructive CorpSeCorps. Now, under threat of an imminent Painballer attack, the MaddAddamites must fight back with the aid of their newfound allies, some of whom have four trotters.At the centre, is the extraordinary story of Zeb's past, which involves a lost brother, a hidden murder, a bear, and a bizarre act of revenge.Combining adventure, humour, romance, superb storytelling, and an imagination that is at once dazzlingly inventive and grounded in a recognizable world, MaddAddam is vintage Margaret Atwood, and a moving and dramatic conclusion to her internationally celebrated dystopian trilogy.

Maddaddam (Maddaddam Ser.)

by Margaret Atwood

La última y emocionante entrega de MADDADDAM, la gran trilogía distópica de Margaret Atwood aclamada a nivel internacional. Meses después de que la pandemia del Diluvio Seco haya borrado a casi toda la humanidad de la faz de la Tierra, Toby y Ren han rescatado a su amiga Amanda de las garras de los despiadados paintbalistas. Juntas, regresan a la cabaña de los locoadánidas. Cuyo reticente profeta, Jimmy -Hombre de las Nieves-, debilitado a causa de la fiebre, hace que Toby tenga que predicar la teología de los crackers. Zab, por su parte, ha estado buscando a Adán Uno, fundador de los Jardineros de Dios, la religión ecologista y pacifista de la que él mismo se desvinculó años atrás para guiar a los locoadánidas en su resistencia activa contra la acción destructora de SegurMort. La crítica ha dicho...«Esta narración probablemente se recordará como la gran contribución de Atwood a la literatura. Pese a que la novela se desarrolla en un futuro posapocalíptico, se trata de un libro muy divertido. Es posible que cuando el mundo llegue a su fin lo único que pueda hacer uno sea reírse.»National Post «La conclusión de esta notable trilogía nos deja un regusto de desesperación ante los fracasos de la humanidad, pero también una sensación de asombro ante el potencial apenas explorado del ser humano que aún queda por desarrollar.»Publishers Weekly «Sin duda, Atwood acierta en el tono, tanto para la hipocresía lingüística que logra disfrazar cualquier tipo de catástrofe como para el rechazo desdeñoso de quienes apuntan al desastre.»The Wall Street Journal «Una sátira mordaz, un ingenio socarrón y un brío verbal crepitan a lo largo de este libro que cierra la trilogía de Atwood sobre un desastre mundial.»The Sunday Times «Pocos escritores son capaces de crear un mundo tan ferozmente cautivador, tan divertido y pleno (irónicamente)de vida. Un panegírico a los poderes imperecederos del mito y del relato.»Daily Mail «Una escritora que muestra una diversidad virtuosa, y una imaginación que responde sin reparos a las preocupaciones científicas, pero también al patrimonio literario del que se imbuye.»The Sunday Times
