Ninguna Buena Acción
by M. P. Mcdonald Ramón SomozaMark Taylor sabe que sus acciones gritan culpable --pero sólo estaba intentando parar el horrible ataque terrorista. En cambio, el gobierno le etiqueta como un combatiente enemigo y le echa en un calabozo sin derechos, sin juicio, y ninguna manera de probar su inocencia. Mark es sólo un tipo normal --un fotógrafo-- que se encuentra en una situación extraordinaria cuando una antigua cámara que ha comprado en un polvoriento bazar de Afganistán produce fotografías de futuras tragedias. Cuando descubre que puede evitar que ocurran los sucesos de las fotos, no puede vivir con la culpabilidad si no intenta parar las tragedias. Cuando ve el 11 de Septiembre, sus esfuerzos fracasan cuando nadie escucha sus frenéticos avisos. Y entonces aprende que siendo un 'combatiente enemigo' el Gobierno puede hacer lo que quiera con él. Absolutamente todo lo que quiera.
Ningún Infierno (Triolgia Imagina #2)
by Lex AllenLa Segunda Venida no es lo que la Biblia profetizó. Eloah ha regresado a la Tierra decidido a corregir los errores de la religión fundada en su nombre. Pero aún con su regreso, y más compañeros, la obscuridad que habita este mundo continúa creciendo, esperando ansiosamente y planeando involucrar a la Tierra en una peligrosa batalla entre el bien y el mal. En una historia épica que une los cimientos de la fe y la sociedad, Eloah y sus seguidores corren para salvar a la tierra de una guerra nuclear mundial. Mientras la humanidad pende de un delicado balance,el mal acecha en las sombras prepa´randose para la confrontación final con el mismo Eloah - y cualquiera que él esté tratando de salvar.
Ningún Paraiso
by Raúl López Martínez Lex AllenImagina que un ser alienígena de un universo paralelo anunciara que él había sido conocido alguna vez como Jesús. La primera vez que Él caminó por nuestra Tierra; Él vino a enseñar a la gente el Camino hacia la paz interior y la vida eterna sin temor a la muerte o la opresión por aquellos con poder religioso o político. Él falló. Mientras Jesús regresa para salvar al mundo de la obscuridad acechando más allá del ojo público, Su presencia reta al Cristianismo moderno y las creencias principales de una religión fundada en Su nombre. As Jesus returns to save the world from darkness lurking just beyond the public eye, His presence challenges modern Christianity and the core beliefs of a religion founded in His name. El conflicto consequente para salvar a la humadidad comienza - en una batalla entre el bien y el mal de proporciones épicas.

Ninteen Eighty-Four
by George OrwellGeorge Orwell's dystopian masterpiece, Nineteen Eighty-Four is perhaps the most pervasively influential book of the twentieth century, published with an introduction by Ben Pimlott in Penguin Modern Classics. 'Who controls the past controls the future: who controls the present controls the past' Hidden away in the Record Department of the sprawling Ministry of Truth, Winston Smith skilfully rewrites the past to suit the needs of the Party. Yet he inwardly rebels against the totalitarian world he lives in, which demands absolute obedience and controls him through the all-seeing telescreens and the watchful eye of Big Brother, symbolic head of the Party. In his longing for truth and liberty, Smith begins a secret love affair with a fellow-worker Julia, but soon discovers the true price of freedom is betrayal. If you enjoyed Nineteen Eighty-Four, you might like Orwell's Animal Farm, also available in Penguin Modern Classics.
