Camino a Macondo
by Gabriel García MárquezUn fascinante recorrido literario a través de las ficciones que contribuyeron a la construcción del espacio mítico de Cien años de soledad. «...lo que hay entre La hojarasca y Cien años de soledad son unos quince años de fastidiarse mucho, de vivir mucho y de estar pendiente de esto todos los días, tratando de ver cómo eran las cosas.» Gabriel García Márquez García Márquez sostuvo en diversas oportunidades que para escribir un libro primero había que aprender a escribirlo y, solo entonces, enfrentarse a la máquina de escribir. A él le tomó casi veinte años "vivir" en Macondo, para aprender a escribir ese portento de la literatura de todos los tiempos que es Cien años de soledad. Esta antología, realizada con el ánimo de rastrear la andadura del escritor, compila todos los textos publicados en los que ese universo mítico fue tomando forma. Desde sus apuntes para una novela de 1950 y primeros relatos, hasta La hojarasca, El coronel no tiene quien le escriba y La mala hora en 1966, en lo que supone la efervescente antesala a la creación de Cien años de soledad. Bienvenido, lector, a este Camino a Macondo. Reseñas:«Me tranquiliza saber que alguien me recordará en Macondo.»Gabriel García Márquez «El imaginario del novelista se ha convertido en un lugar mítico de las letras universales.»La Razón

Reseñas:«El mayor éxito juvenil desde Los juegos del hambre.»Entertainment Weekly «Si el mundo de Katniss te ha marcado, no puedes perderte esta saga en la que no hay libertad ni para decidir de quién te enamoras.»Seventeen Magazine «Intenso, inolvidable, adictivo.»Kirkus Review Disfruta de la saga: -Busco a una persona -digo-. Se llama Ky. -El grupo ha comenzado a disgregarse-. Es moreno, con los ojos azules -continúo, en voz más alta-. Vino de una gran ciudad, pero también conoce estas tierras. Los chicos se alejan con paso cansino, pero uno de ellos me mira a los ojos y hace un gesto que no me gusta. Le mantengo la mirada. Trato de ver lo que hay. -Tú lo conoces -digo-. Sabes de quién hablo. No espero que lo admita, pero él asiente. -¿Dónde está? -pregunto. -Ha muerto -responde. -Mientes -digo mientras me trago la preocupación y las ganas de llorar-. Pero te escucharé cuando quieras decirme la verdad. -¿Qué te hace pensar que te diré algo? -pregunta. -No te queda mucho tiempo para hablar -respondo-. Ni a ti ni a ninguno de nosotros. Por un momento, parece que el chico va a hablar, pero entonces se ríe y se marcha

by Gini KochThe President and First Lady, aka Jeff and Kitty Katt-Martini, don't get any downtime once the Mastermind has been revealed to the world. Not only do they have myriad high-level government positions to fill, but the scrutiny and pressure on this Administration has gone into overdrive.The sudden reappearance of a long-forgotten adversary turns out to be the tip of the iceberg. New robots and androids attacking, old enemies making new alliances, and new aliens with interesting abilities almost overshadow the fact that the U.S. still has to host a peace summit at Camp David between Israel and Iraq. It's clear that while the Mastermind may be down, there are plenty of others ready to take his place--and all that stands between them and success are Kitty and Company.Kidnappings, rescues, creepy hideouts, a hidden black site, and a domestic dispute that could end Jeff and Kitty's marriage are nothing compared to finding not one but two hidden labs where dangerous and deadly things are brewing. But when the President and his entourage finally get to the peace talks, things are no better. Mossad rightly suspects something's wrong with both their Prime Minister and the President of Iraq. A hidden in-control superbeing, an android replacement, and an army of Fem-Bots turn the peace talks into a Battle Royale that the team might not actually survive. And if they don't make it, Earth won't make it, either.But no pressure.

But is Adrian up to the challenge?
Camp Half-Blood Confidential: Your Real Guide to the Demigod Training Camp (Trials of Apollo)
by Rick Riordan<p>In response to an awful camp orientation video created by the god Apollo, Percy Jackson and other residents of Camp Half-Blood answer such questions as "What is this place?" and "Do I get to keep the T-shirt?" Newbies can check out the section on the Divine Cabins, read up on Magical Landmarks, and consult the chapter of Training Arenas. But Camp Half-Blood Confidential explores much more than just the buildings and grounds. It includes info that can only be learned from those who live there. For instance, campers do not always co-exist in peace and harmony. The camp is not run with superior efficiency. Prophecies do not flow forth with great regularity. <p>Sprinkled throughout are stories from heroes who have called Camp Half-Blood home or just passed through on their way to places unknown. Chiron himself introduces the book with a brief history of training based on his millennia of experience. And, of course, there are divine words of wisdom from the god Apollo himself, because . . . well, because the demigod authors would prefer not to be struck down, thank you very much.</p>

Her turret seems to be haunted, and the golden bird that she captured for the songbird contest refuses to sing a note!
