Yo fui Jack el Destripador
by Michael Bray Jorge Ledezma MillánCuando Jack el Destripador aterrorizó Londres en 1888, desencadenaría una ola de misterio tras su desaparición y su cadena de violentos y terroríficos asesinatos terminaría tan rápido como había comenzado, dejando a su paso uno de los crímenes no resueltos más antiguos del mundo. Ahora, en 1907, el biógrafo Charles Hapgood está a punto de recibir la visita de un hombre que, sorprendentemente, afirma ser el famoso Destripador y desea narrar su historia antes de su inminente muerte. Escéptico al principio, Hapgood acepta escuchar su historia, siendo más adelante testigo de una prueba indiscutible de que su visitante dice la verdad y es realmente quien dice ser. Conforme Hapgood escucha la historia del hombre, se va sumergiendo en un mundo de dolor, crueldad, horror y tristeza a medida que descubre cómo un niño inocente se convirtió en el monstruo viviente más grande que el mundo haya conocido jamás. A medida que la historia se desarrolla, el escritor comienza a temer por su propia seguridad ya que el hombre alguna vez conocido como Jack el Destripador utiliza sus propias palabras para narrar su historia, un relato que va mucho más allá de la línea de tiempo conocida de sus horrendos crímenes y alcanza nuevas profundidades de terror y depravación que Hapgood nunca podría haber imaginado.

The Yoga Zapper - A Novel
by Mohan AshtakalaLittle do Jack and Steve realize that the text is actually a prescription for time-travel. In the midst of a deep conflict, they are transported to different destinations.

Yon Ill Wind (Xanth #20)
by Piers AnthonyThere had been a magic flux, the moment he changed form, resulting in a temporary weakness of the Interface. The spell required to fix him in this situation had done it, for even the most trifling Demon magic was stronger than that of all the lesser creatures combined. For the next few hours, it would be possible for things to pass through, entering Xanth without being twisted to some other time. That could mean significant mischief. Ordinarily he would automatically shore up the Interface to prevent such a nuisance, but as Nimby he couldn't. It was his policy to ignore the activities of his associated region, but the Interface the local creatures had established was useful, and helped keep things quiet, so he quietly supported it. He just had to hope that nothing really obnoxious passed from Mundania into Xanth, before the Interface healed itself.
Yon Ill Wind (Xanth Ser. #Vol. 20)
by Piers AnthonyThis Xanth villain is full of hot air. “Anthony’s unflagging sparkle, verve and wordplay spin everyday trials of Mundane life into storytelling gold” (Publishers Weekly). A fickle flux in the fabric of space has allowed a horrendous hurricane to blast into Xanth, stirring up mischief and madness wherever she goes. Trapped in a preposterous form by a cosmic wager, the Demon X(A/N)th must join forces with a vexatious vixen named Chlorine to save Xanth from this terrifying and tempestuous threat. Their companions on this haphazard quest are a hapless human family—Jim and Karen Baldwin and their two teenage sons, David and Sean—gusted into Xanth from the mundane world beyond. Together they encounter a host of turbulent misadventures as they struggle to keep Xanth from being blown off the map forever. “Just the thing for pun-happy funsters.” —Kirkus Reviews
Yorath the Wolf
by Cherry WilderYorath, the son of a royal prince, was born with a deformity that marks him for death. The court physician saves him by convincing his family that he died shortly after birth and takes him to a distant forest where he thrives, unaware of his birthright and the dark prophecy that looms over him. But as he grows to manhood, Yorath can't avoid being drawn into the violent conflict that plagues the land. Becoming a soldier, he rises through the ranks until he becomes a reluctant combatant in the struggle for the throne. Even as Yorath wields the power of a kingmaker, the ways of the court are as much anathema to him as the brutality of war. If he is ever to escape the violence and machinations he so despises, he has but one choice: He must confront his heritage or lose the land he has come to love and the peace he so cherishes.
