Death of a King: The Quest Of Kings Trilogy - Book Two (Quests of the Kings Trilogy #2)
by Robert EvertQuests of the Kings’s beloved company of heroes returns in an epic fantasy adventure perfect for fans of Becky Wallace and Rae Carson. Natalie, her mentor Sir Edris, and squire Reg are hidden in Eryn Mas with only two quests standing between them and a place in history. With the diabolical Brago scheming to become the greatest adventurer in history by any means necessary, they will have to conduct their moves covertly to avoid interference. Posing as a shopkeeper far from home, Natalie enlists Magnus, a rapscallion with the potential to be a perfect informant, to help keep the heat off our heroes as they search for the next artifact. Magnus, however, is a wild card. The newly minted spy is constantly distracted by new possibilities—and even worse, his inelegance draws unnecessary attention. Brago’s shadow seems to peek around every corner . . . When the plan for virtually orchestrating a quest becomes exponentially more complicated by Brago’s machinations, Natalie will have to scrabble to ensure victory for her company.

Princesa de cenizas
by Laura SebastianPrincesa. Prisionera. Huérfana. Rebelde. Cuando todo lo que queda de tu pasado son cenizas, debes buscar muy dentro de ti para encontrar la llama que puede devolverte la fuerza. Theodosia tenía tan solo seis años cuando los Kalovaxians invadieron su país y asesinaron a su madre, la Reina de la Llama y la Furia, delante de sus propios ojos. En aquel momento, la joven princesa lo perdió todo. Incluso su nombre. Con el nuevo nombre de Thora y el ridículo apodo de «princesa de Cenizas», Theodosia ha vivido diez años prisionera en su propio palacio sufriendo los maltratos y las humillaciones del káiser. Pero cuando el dictador la obliga a ejecutar a la única persona que podría haberla salvado de su pesadilla, Theodosia decide resurgir de las cenizas. Su astucia es más poderosa que cualquier espada. Y un reino no se gana siempre en el campo de batalla. Durante diez años la Princesa de Cenizas ha visto su tierra saqueada y a su pueblo esclavizado. Ha llegado el momento de ponerle fin a esta opresión. Reseñas:«Un inicio de serie emocionalmente complejo y repleto de suspense que te deja sin aliento.»Booklist «Una trama que mezcla con habilidad intriga política, magia poderosa y debilitante y los violentos mecanismos de la colonización, sumergiendo al lector en una trama tan turbulenta como cautivadora.»Kirkus Reviews «Una ventana abierta a las complejidades de las relaciones y emociones humanas, las tensiones familiares y la falsa cara pública que a veces se necesita en la política y en la corte [...] Un final apoteósico para una secuela.»Publishers Weekly «Los amantes de la fantasía, de Kiera Cass y de Suzanne Collins lo adorarán.»SLJ
