    Publisher's Summary:
    In his latest innovative novel, the award-winning author evokes the dazzling Tang Dynasty of 8th-century China in a story of honor and power. Inspired by the glory and power of Tang dynasty China, Guy Gavriel Kay has created a masterpiece.
    It begins simply. Shen Tai, son of an illustrious general serving the Emperor of Kitai, has spent two years honoring the memory of his late father by burying the bones of the dead from both armies at the site of one of his father's last great battles. In recognition of his labors and his filial piety, an unlikely source has sent him a dangerous gift: 250 Sardian horses.You give a man one of the famed Sardian horses to reward him greatly. You give him four or five to exalt him above his fellows, propel him towards rank, and earn him jealousy, possibly mortal jealousy. Two hundred and fifty is an unthinkable gift, a gift to overwhelm an emperor. Wisely, the gift comes with the stipulation that Tai must claim the horses in person. Otherwise he would probably be dead already.
    Critic Reviews:
    "Kay writes deftly of women who are sexually suborned by their societies, neither minimizing their constraints nor denying their agency, and the complex intrigues of poets, prostitutes, ministers, and soldiers evolve into a fascinating, sometimes bloody, and entirely believable tale." (Publishers Weekly)

    Resumen del editor:
    Aventura, amor y guerra en el tablero de ajedrez del cruento siglo XX: la novela más personal de la autora de La Tabla Esmeralda.
    En un pueblo de montaña, los hermanastros Lena y Guillén viven una existencia sencilla y tranquila. Ambos están muy unidos y apenas conciben la vida el uno sin el otro. Sin embargo, algo tan inesperado como extraordinario sucede y se ven obligados a separarse. Con los años y la distancia aquella complicidad infantil se convierte en amor juvenil alimentado con un encuentro esporádico y cientos de cartas.
    El estallido de la Guerra Civil sorprende a Lena en Oviedo y a Guillén en Francia, quien, angustiado por la suerte de la mujer que ama, inicia un arriesgado viaje a través de un país asolado por la contienda para reunirse con ella. Sin embargo, la guerra pone a prueba su amor: Lena se ha convertido en enfermera voluntaria del bando sublevado y resiste en una ciudad sitiada por las fuerzas republicanas; Guillén forma parte de esas fuerzas que estrangulan a la ciudad.
    Más tarde, Lena y Guillén vivirán de primera mano los acontecimientos de la Segunda Guerra Mundial y seguirán en bandos opuestos: él en la resistencia contra el nazismo y ella como enfermera de la División Azul. Y aunque sus destinos volverán a cruzarse tanto en la Varsovia aplastada por los nazis como en la exuberante Tánger de los años cuarentas o en el dramático escenario de la posguerra española, siempre estarán condenados a enfrentarse al mismo dilema: ¿Cómo pueden amarse cuando sus voluntades políticas y sus trayectorias vitales han tomado caminos tan distintos?

    Resumen del editor:
    Segunda entrega de la trilogía The Century. La fascinante historia que empezó LA CAÍDA DE LOS GIGANTES continúa en este audiolibro, ahora con los hijos de las familias británica, galesa, alemana, americana y rusa como protagonistas. Narra sus luchas personales, políticas y militares durante el auge de Hitler, la Guerra Civil española, la Segunda Guerra Mundial y los años del desarrollo de la bomba atómica.

Lady Maud, ahora la esposa de Walter von Ulrich y madre de dos hijos, publica artículos en una revista semanal que ridiculizan al partido nazi mientras su marido manifiesta su oposición en el gobierno. Sin embargo, parece que nada podrá frenar el poder ascendente del canciller Adolf Hitler. Cuando Maud recibe la visita de Ethel Williams y su hijo Lloyd, todos serán testigos de la tiranía y la represión de la nueva Alemania.El reino del Tercer Reich se extenderá hasta Francia y más allá de la frontera rusa. Mientras, en Inglaterra, Lloyd Williams, activista político como su madre, luchará en el ejército británico para intentar frenar dicho avance, antes de alistarse en las brigadas internacionales de la guerra civil española, donde participará en la ofensiva de Zaragoza y la batalla de Belchite.Ty Gwyn, la mansión familiar de los Fitzherbert en País de Gales, se convertirá en acantonamiento para oficiales, y durante su estancia, Lloyd se sentirá atraído por la mujer de Boy Fitzherbert, la rica heredera americana Daisy Peshkov.En esta magnífica novela épica, Ken Follett transportará al lector a través de una Europa en ruinas, quebrada de nuevo por las guerras y los conflictos ideológicos. Los hijos de las cinco familias, protagonistas de La caída de los gigantes, forjarán su destino en los años turbulentos de la Segunda Guerra Mundial, la guerra civil española, el bombardeo de Pearl Harbor y la era de las bombas atómicas americanas y soviéticas.

    Publisher's Summary:
    With his swashbuckling adventures, best-selling novelist Patrick O'Brian transports you to the high seas of old, where privateers lurk in the mist, and great ships fight to control the waterways. Blue at the Mizzen hoists the excitement to new heights as British frigate commander Jack Aubrey stakes everything on a desperate raid against the mighty Spanish fleet. Ever since Napoleon was defeated at Waterloo, Captain Aubrey's prospects in the new peacetime navy have looked dim. Even worse, his frigate Surprise was badly damaged in a nighttime collision. While Aubrey waits for repairs, ship's doctor Stephen Maturin brings him intriguing information about the New World. Soon Aubrey is leading a bold expedition that will determine the fate of a rising South American nation, and his own. Critically-acclaimed author Patrick O'Brian blends authentic period atmosphere, rich humor, and elegant language in each of his seafaring yarns. You can almost hear the thunder of the waves and smell the salty sea air as you listen to Patrick Tull's dramatic performance.
    Don't miss the rest of the
    series.

    Critic Reviews:
    "O'Brian is not that hard a taste to acquire, but he is very tough to shake...[the Aubrey/Maturin series] is a great work." (Boston Globe)
