Neimhaim. El azor y los cuervos
by Aranzazu Serrano LorenzoEl esperadísimo regreso al mundo de Neimhaim es una aventura de trepidante fantasía épica cargada de intriga y emoción. Al cumplir dieciocho años, Jörn, el hijo de los Reyes Blancos, regresa de su exilio en las montañas. Él es la encarnación viviente de la Alianza, el primer nacido con sangre del clan guerrero kranyal y del pacífico clan djendel. La Profecía le augura un gran destino, pero antes tiene que enfrentarse a la prueba más importante de su vida: desafiar a su madre en un duelo a espada y vencerla. También le espera un reto no menos arduo: casarse con su prometida, Sygnet. Pero una sombra se cierne sobre él y sobre todo el reino de Neimhaim. Un secreto está a punto de desvelarse. Una verdad guardada celosamente que concierne a dos hermanos gemelos, Kjartan y Søren, quienes van a descubrir de la peor forma posible que no son quienes creían ser... Sobre la novela han dicho... «El azor y los cuervos es la aventura de fantasía más humana, profunda y adictiva desde Canción de Hielo y Fuego. Una joya de la literatura fantástica.»Daniel G. Aparicio, periodista de 20 Minutos «Mantiene una intriga constante. Vas a pasarte toda la lectura queriendo saber qué pasa en la página siguiente.»Ángel Sanchidrián, autor de Tres enanos y pico «Un festín de libertad, una fantasía épica con trazas de modernidad donde los personajes fascinan al segundo y los prejuicios caen a golpe de alegatos a favor del mestizaje y la tolerancia.»Alicia Avilés Pozo, periodista de eldiario.es «En nuestro país nadie escribe fantasía épica como Aranzazu Serrano. El azor y los cuervos es una aventura salvaje, llena de humanidad y belleza. Sus protagonistas son tan reales que podríamos ser cualquiera de nosotros.»Concepción Perea, autora de La Corte de los Espejos «Viajeros, escanciad el hidromiel, tapaos con las pieles y que suenen los cuernos de Wardruna. El azor y los cuervos nos devuelve a un Neimhaim aún más épico y sangriento con kranyal y djendel unidos ante un desafío sorprendente.»Antonio Torrubia, librero de Gigamesh
Neimhaim. Los hijos de la nieve y la tormenta: Los hijos de la nieve y la tormenta
by Aranzazu Serrano LorenzoToda la fuerza de los mitos vikingos y el misticismo de la cultura celta se unen en Neimhaim, una aventura nórdica cargada de batallas, intrigas y romance; una obra de fantasía épica que despliega un mundo propio dotado de gran riqueza descriptiva. Lo que ahora os contaré es tan cierto como que el fuego quema y el hielo, también. Sabed, amigos míos, que dos pueblos, dos grandes clanes, habitaban una tierra apartada del resto del mundo. Se creían tan diferentes como la noche lo es del día, y en verdad, os lo aseguro, lo eran. Amante del coraje y de las armas era el clan Kranyal; guerreros de bravo corazón y maestría en el arte de la lucha. Protectores de la vida y la serenidad eran los Djendel, pacíficos sacerdotes bendecidos con habilidades que iban más allá de lo natural, cuyo uso restringían con estrictos códigos. Sus historias discurrían por separado, pero un día la frágil armonía quedó alterada y el entramado del destino cambió para siempre. Ambos pueblos salvaron sus recelos y unieron sus caminos por la fuerza de la necesidad. Juntos fundaron un joven reino llamado Neimhaim. Largo y quebradizo sería el camino de su unión; para allanarlo, sus líderes pactaron ceder el mando a sus hijos primogénitos, quienes regirían Neimhaim como esposa y esposo. No podían imaginar que, lejos de allí, un dios desterrado urdía pacientemente un plan para hacer de esos niños un instrumento de venganza contra sus iguales. Así comienza la historia de los Hijos de la Nieve y la Tormenta. Así se me contó un día, hace mucho tiempo Twitter: @neimhaimFacebook: saganeimhaimInstagram: @neimhaimWeb: neimhaim.com La opinión de Elia Barceló sobre Neimhaim:«Un tour de force. Una novela de gran aliento épico, creíble, original, compleja, que demuestra que la buena fantasía no tiene por qué ser anglosajona. Un auténtico placer de lectura. Es como ver una película en pantalla grande.»

Nekropolis
by Maureen F. MchughFleeing an empty future in the Nekropolis, twenty-one-year-old Hariba has agreed to have herself "jessed," the technobiological process that will render her subservient to whomever has purchased her service. Indentured in the house of a wealthy merchant, she encounters many wondrous things. Yet nothing there is as remarkable and disturbing to her as the harni, Akhmim. A perfect replica of a man, this intelligent, machine-bred creature unsettles Hariba with its beauty, its naive, inappropriate tenderness . . . and with prying, unanswerable questions, like "Why are you sad?" And slowly, revulsion metamorphoses into acceptance, and then into something much more. But these outlaw emotions defy the strict edicts of God and Man -- feelings that must never be explored, since no master would tolerate them. And the "jessed" defy their master's will at the risk of sickness, pain, imprisonment . . . and death.
