by Laura GallegoLa trilogía de «Guardianes de la Ciudadela» llega en formato estuche para disfrutar de la saga al completo. EN UN MUNDO LLENO DE MONSTRUOS,SOLO UN LIBRO PUEDE SALVARNOS El bestiario de Axlin Axlin ha crecido siendo consciente de que cualquier día le puede tocar a ella. Su gente ha sobrevivido a los monstruos durante generaciones y ha aprendido a evitarlos en la medida de lo posible. Pero un día Axlin descubre que existen muchos tipos de monstruos diferentes, que cada aldea se enfrenta a sus propias pesadillas y que hay criaturas que no conoce y ante las que no sabe cómo defenderse. Axlin es la escriba de su aldea, la única que sabe leer y escribir. Debido a ello, nadie de su entorno comprende realmente la importancia de su trabajo. Pero ella se ha propuesto investigar todo lo que pueda sobre los monstruos y plasmar sus descubrimientos en un libro que pueda servir de guía y protección a otras personas. Por eso decide partir con los buhoneros en una larga ruta para reunir la sabiduría ancestral de las aldeas en su precaria lucha contra los monstruos. No obstante, a lo largo de su viaje descubrirá cosas que jamás habría imaginado cuando partió. ________________________________ El secreto de Xein Axlin trabaja en la biblioteca y sigue recopilando información para completar su bestiario mientras investiga una presencia inusual de monstruos dentro de los muros de la Ciudadela. Además, al intentar ayudar a su amigo Dex con un problema personal se ve envuelta en un conflicto que implica a varias familias aristocráticas de la ciudad vieja. Xein, por su parte, se ha convertido en uno más de los Guardianes que protegen a los habitantes de la Ciudadela de los monstruos que los acechan. Su lealtad a la Guardia lo obliga a mantener sus nuevos conocimientos ocultos para el resto de la gente y especialmente para Axlin, lo cual levanta otro muro entre los dos. Todo ello causará enfrentamientos entre ambos cada vez que vuelvan a encontrarse, pero también hará saltar chispas que arderán con más fuerza a causa de su pasado en común. ________________________________ La misión de Rox Rox ha partido a la región del oeste en busca de una aldea perdida habitada por Guardianes. Mientras una riada de supervivientes acude a la Ciudadela en busca de un refugio seguro, tras sus muros florece un nuevo movimiento filosófico, la Senda del Manantial, cuyo líder predica el fin del mundo conocido... para bien o para mal. Xein, por su parte, ha sido enviado a la Última Frontera, de donde pocos regresan con vida. Pero Axlin se ha propuesto rescatarlo.

Durante mil años los skaa han sido esclavizados y viven sumidos en un miedo inevitable. Durante mil años el Lord Legislador reina con un poder absoluto gracias al terror, a sus poderes y a su inmortalidad. Le ayudan «obligadores» e «inquisidores», junto a la poderosa magia de la alomancia. Pero los nobles a menudo han tenido trato sexual con jóvenes skaa y, aunque la ley lo prohíbe, algunos de sus bastardos han sobrevivido y heredado los poderes alománticos: son los «nacidos de la bruma» (mistborns). ------------- El imperio final En El Imperio final, Kelsier, el «superviviente», el único que ha logrado huir de los Pozos de Hathsin, ha encontrado a Vin, una pobre chica skaa con mucha suerte... Tal vez los dos, unidos a la rebelión que los skaa intentan desde hace mil años, logren cambiar el mundo y la atroz dominación del Lord Legislador. ------------- El pozo de la Ascensión Vencer y matar al Lord Legislador fue la parte sencilla. El verdadero desafío será sobrevivir a las consecuencias de su caída. Tomar el poder tal vez resultó fácil, pero ¿qué ocurre después?, ¿cómo se utiliza? En ese mundo de aventura épica, la estrategia política y religiosa debe lidiar con los siempre misteriosos poderes de la alomancia... ------------- El héroe de las eras En El héroe de las eras se comprende el porqué de la niebla y las cenizas, las tenebrosas acciones del Lord Legislador y la naturaleza del Pozo de la Ascensión.

Trinidad

Una mercenaria drogadicta, una niña-máquina con inteligencia artificial y una detective son víctimas de un oscuro proyecto donde se despliegan consolas ouijas, conciencias administradas por el gobierno, secuestro de almas, tráfico de médula infantil, cacerías en el ciberespacio y seres que duermen en las entrañas de anacondas. Todo, hilado con la febril imaginación de Jorge Baradit. Una historia que golpea con imágenes alucinantes que mezclan el cyberpunk más clásico con una visión ocultista y chamánica, un nuevo paradigma literario definido, por académicos y entendidos, como cyberchamanismo.
