Pendant ce temps, rien ne semble pouvoir arrêter l'ascension fulgurante de Preto. Son ambition le pousse à ignorer tous les avertissements, quitte à attiser la convoitise de nouveaux ennemis. Au cœur de cette escalade de violence, Preto n'a pas peur de défier Angel Cortès pour récupérer celle qu'il n'arrive pas à oublier. Et s'il peut en profiter pour prendre son trône et contrôler le trafic de drogue au Mexique, il n'hésitera pas à rendre cette guerre plus que sanglante.

Depuis le décès de leur mère adorée, chacune des soeurs Scott est retournée à son train-train quotidien. Convoquées à Wilmington par leur père pour passer le 31 décembre en famille, elles s'attendaient à tout… sauf à une soirée faite de révélations, d'amour et de chaos.

Depuis le drame qu'ils ont vécu, Valentina et Preto s’éloignent l'un de l'autre, pris au piège de leurs silences et de leurs blessures. Chacun tente de survivre à sa manière : elle, en fuyant la douleur, lui, en sombrant dans la vengeance. Pendant ce temps, le cartel menace de s'effondrer, car leur ennemi invisible complote toujours dans l’ombre. Les alliances se brisent, les trahisons s’accumulent, et la guerre vient détruire leur seul refuge, Isla Mujeres. Le sang appelle toujours le sang. Avant de pouvoir guérir, il leur faudra se battre... Une dernière fois.

My name is James Thorne, and I wasn't supposed to matter. Before the invasion, I was just a guy in a dead-end job, keeping my head down and my past buried. The Gehenna want our annihilation. Thankfully, they angered the Aetherion who may help humanity not only fight back, but turn the tide. When I’m offered the chance to be Cleansed, to become something more than I was, I take it. And it turns out I’m special. No, I’m not the Chosen One. And yes, there are others like me, but as a Psyker, I can do things most can't. Things that make me very dangerous.

My name’s James Thorne. I used to be someone, once—Psyker, Apex-ranked, battle-tested. Now I’m just another ghost drifting through the black, looking for somewhere quiet to land. We find Dresen. Dust-choked, half-dead mining town on the edge of nowhere. It looks like peace. Smells like rot. The local militia’s too clean. Their weapons are too new. And the mines? Something down there still breathes. Worse, it’s hungry.

One thing has become perfectly clear: The Mages’ Guild won’t stop coming for me until I am either under their control, or dead. So rather than wait to be cornered…I’m going to take the fight to them. But Emery and I can’t do it alone. We have to assemble enough power in the magical world to rip the Guild off of their high horse. And to do that, we’ll need the shifters as well as the vampires. Except, shifters and vampires would rather kill each other than work together. And after a surprise run-in with a strangely powerful goblin, my world is slapped sideways.

Da er gegen den Willen seines Vaters mit König Richard Löwenherz ins Heilige Land zog, verlor der junge Ritter Wilfred von Ivanhoe Erbe und Namen.

After narrowly surviving my debut into the magical world, I made a promise to myself: no more hiding in broom closets. But with the Mages’ Guild reorganizing faster than anyone thought possible, and naming me as their number one target, that promise seems a little far-fetched. Especially since my training with Callie and Dizzy, the highly experienced dual-mage pair, goes off like a cake in a cannon. Left to find someone that can fill the role, it isn’t until a formal dinner party goes horribly wrong that I find the best (and worst) solution imaginable: Reagan Somerset.

Preacher has agreed to escort Barnaby Cooper through Dakota Territory’s hills to establish a trading post. Accompanied by his friends Lorenzo and Tall Dog, the mountain man hopes they’ll be able to protect Cooper from Sioux warriors who don’t want any white man trespassing on their sacred grounds. But the Sioux aren’t the only hostiles staking their claim in the region.

Something has always been missing from my life. A hole that I could never seem to fill. When I accidentally turn a coven of witches into nightmares, I find out what that something is. Magic. And it turns out, I have a crap load of it. As a latent power awakens deep inside of me, I’m exposed to one of the most powerful and corrupt organizations in the magical world—the Mages’ Guild. Barely knowing a spell from a few swear words and luck, I won’t be able to evade them alone. And that’s when I meet him.

Dorian Gray’s painting was never in the vault of the library. We currently have no idea where it is and the only person who can track it is probably being held hostage in a storage yard with all kinds of cursed objects. Balthazar’s dick is still cursed and there’s no easy way to remove it. I already made it worse once. I hope it doesn’t fall off this time. I was totally against marrying Reyson when he woke up and announced I would be his new wife, but my resolve on that is starting to weaken. I’m starting to care for the damned god.

Als 1727 "Gullivers Reisen" von Jonathan Swift erschien, ahnte bestimmt niemand, dass dieser als zeitgenössische politische Satire gemeinte Roman ein Welterfolg als Kinderbuch werden würde. Dieser Erfolg ist Gulliver treu geblieben und hat ihm - zu seinem und dem Ruhm seines geistigen Vaters und uns zur Freude - dieses Hörspiel beschert. Noch einmal erleben wir Gullivers aufregende Abenteuer bei den Zwergen und bei den Riesen - und wieder streifen wir mit ihm durch Liliput, Brobdingnag, Laputa und Lagado. Durch alle Kontinente der phantastischen Welt des Dichters Jonathan Swift.

A colony survives among the icy rings of a planet, hiding from alien robots determined to destroy them … at a remote site on the edge of the Arctic Circle, a group of scientists, engineers, and physicians gather to gamble humanity’s future on one last-ditch experiment … a man who can’t feel pain has been bioengineered to be a killing machine, but he refuses to give in to his fate … a man is contacted by three future versions of himself, each trying to save their world from destruction.

“Watkins’s prose is effortless and forthright. . . . This is an impressive feat of storytelling. . . . It’s a difficult read and a tender story of silences and secrets. It’s a novel about coming home, despite that home being broken. And it’s a brave triumph of a novel that readers...

Es sollte bloß eine fiktive Geschichte werden. Eine Geschichte über den Ausbruch einer Grippe-Pandemie in Deutschland. Wie würde sich eine Seuche verbreiten? Wie würden die Auswirkungen unser Leben verändern? Wie würden wir mit dem Verlust von Menschenleben umgehen? Alles nur Fiktion. Bis heute! Der Outbreak-Thriller erzählt die Story von Michael Schmidt, einem angestellten Architekten aus Braunschweig. Aus seiner Sicht hören wir die Geschehnisse, so wie er sie erlebt hatte. Die Vereinsamung, die Gewalt und schließlich den Tod.

Die ersten Reportagen über ein Engagement bei einem deutschsprachigen Wandertheater, das ein Jahr lang durch halb Südamerika tourte, erschienen 1958 in der Schwäbischen Landeszeitung, dem Berliner Telegraf und auf der Titelseite des Berliner Tagesspiegel.

Christian Fundamentalism is a doctrine and a discourse in tension. Fundamentalists describe themselves as both marginal and a majority.

In the mid-1950s, the House Un-American Activities Committee began investigating the communist influence in the entertainment industry.
