Broken Souls
by Bonnie VanakShe was forbidden by the Draicon to cast the blood-to-blood spell. But Katia was determined to find her father, and the spell was her only option. The Draicon had taken her into their pack when her own family had been destroyed by the Morphs. But Katia had never given up hope that her father was still alive, and refused to mate for life with her beloved Baylor until she found him. Now Baylor had given her an ultimatum, and Katia was forced to take drastic measures. But when Katia's spell summoned a Morph claiming to be her father, nothing Baylor said could convince her of the danger. Baylor knew too well the cost of trusting a loved one who'd turned, and desperately wanted to save Katia the pain he'd lived with for so long. He also knew that if he spared the Morph, it would destroy Katia, but if he killed this evil being, he risked losing her love forever.

While searching for a way to break Santa Muerte's hold over him, Carter finds himself the target of a psychopath who can steal anyone's form, powers, and memories.

Now Carter has to change the game -- go from hunted to hunter. All he has for help is a Skid Row bruja and a ghost who's either his dead friend Alex or the manifestation of Carter's own guilt-fueled psychotic break. Everything is trying to kill him. Nothing is as it seems. If all his plans go perfectly, he might survive the week. He's hoping that's a good thing.

Best of all, Blackmoore’s chillingly good storytelling skills ensures that fans will enjoy every step of this adrenaline fueled journey.” — RT Book Reviews (Top Pick) on Broken Souls“This series is so fucking good. Blackmoore can’t write these books fast enough to suit me. BROKEN SOULS is hyper-caffeinated, turbo-bloody face-stomping fun. This is the L.A-noir urban fantasy you’ve been looking for.” — Kevin Hearne, Author of The Iron Druid Chronicles"Carter’s wry voice is amusing as ever, but the grief he carries is palpable, adding depth and a sense of desperation to this action-packed adventure. Readers will be eager for more after this thrilling, emotionally fraught installment.” — Publishers Weekly on Ghost Money, Starred ReviewSeries Order:1. Dead Things2. Broken Souls3. Hungry Ghosts4.

by Marata ErosDe la bestseller del New York Times, USA Today y número 1 de Fantasía Oscura, Marata Eros, y para los fans de La Hermandad de la Daga Negra, 50 Sombras y Crepúsculo, llega una historia de guerreros demonio alfa, que reclaman lo que es suyo para la supervivencia de la especie.. ☞ Una novela de 117 páginas. Lectores: " ... ¡He intentado encontrar otros autores de este calibre y he fracasado! Ningún otro autor que haya encontrado ha sacado tanto calor como lo hace Eros. Literalmente tengo que abanicarme mientras leo su obra..." "...oh excitante, sexy, caliente, ... vampiros, demonios, sirenas mmmm..." "...¡Brillante!" "...ME ENCANTA HACIA DÓNDE VA LA SERIE!!!!!!" NOTA: La serie DEMON contiene violencia extrema y no debe ser descargada/leída por los débiles de corazón. Puede contener desencadenantes. Sinopsis: Ruby es una bailarina exótica con un pasado. Huyendo de un padre asesino, se hace a la mar donde vive la tranquila y solitaria existencia de lo invisible. Una noche, cuando su abusivo jefe le pone más de un dedo encima, la multitud se desborda y un improbable salvador se mueve para acabar con su miseria. Poco sabe Ruby que hay quienes han estado buscando exactamente lo que ella es. Brolach es un guerrero demoníaco con un propósito: encontrar hembras con suficiente sangre demoníaca que puedan ser valiosas reproductoras en Hades.

Aunque esta es la primera entrega de The Demon´s Series, se recomienda encarecidamente leer primero las series The Druid y The Siren.
Brontomek
by Michael G. ConeyThe planet Arcadia was on the verge of economic collapse. Its human colony had been decimated by the strange Relay Effect; in the aftermath, still more colonists were leaving for other worlds. The Hetherington Organisation promised to change that. If the remaining colonists put themselves entirely in their hands for a five-year period, they would transform Arcadia into the most prosperous planet settled by mankind, while preserving its great natural beauty.It was an offer the Arcadians could not possibly refuse, for the alternative, after all, was an accelerating slide into poverty and, eventually, savagery. Only when the Hetherington Organisation's first cargo ships arrived, unloading a huge stream of brontomeks - huge robot agricultural machines, heavily armoured - and an army of amorphs, aliens who were capable of moulding themselves into human form, did the colony begin to realise what it had committed itself to.Brontomek! is a sequel to two earlier books, Syzygy and Mirror Image. Like it's predecessors it is an ingenious, adventurous tale of the type which has rapidly made Coney one of SF's foremost entertainers.Brontomek! won the 1977 BSFA award for best novel.

Bronze Summer: The Northland Trilogy
by Stephen BaxterStephen Baxter’s “imaginative [and] bold”* novel Stone Spring drew readers into an alternate prehistoric scenario that now continues with Bronze Summer. Thousands of years have passed. And a wall that was built to hold back the sea, must now hold back the advancing armies of a reviving Troy… What would have been the bed of the North Sea is now Northland, a society of prosperous, literate and self-sufficient people. They live off the bounty of the land, an area created by the building of the Wall. It began as a simple dam, thousands of years ago. Now, inhabited from end to end, the Wall is a linear city stretching for hundreds of miles, and a wonder of the world. For millennia, the Wall has also kept the growing empires of the Bronze Age at bay. But decades of drought have destabilized those eastern civilizations. Men—and women—filled with greed and ambition have now turned their eyes toward the fertile West. A new and turbulent age is dawning. For any wall, no matter how strong, can be breached—particularly from within… *Daily Mail (UK) .
