Danza de dragones es el quinto volumen de Canción de hielo y fuego, la monumental saga de fantasía épica del escritor George R. R. Martin que ha vendido más de 20 millones de ejemplares en todo el mundo. De la saga que inspiró la filmación de la aclamada serie televisiva de HBO: Game of Thrones. Después de una colosal batalla, el futuro de los Siete Reinos pende de un hilo, acuciado por nuevas amenazas que emergen de todos los rincones y en todas direcciones. En el este, Daenerys Targaryen, el último eslabón de la Casa Targaryen, gobierna con sus tres dragones como la reina de una ciudad construida sobre polvo y muerte. Pero Daenerys tiene miles de enemigos, y muchos se han propuesto dar con ella. A medida que ellos la buscan, un joven emprende su propio camino hacia la reina, con un objetivo diametralmente distinto... Tyrion Lannister también se dirige hacia Daenerys mientras escapa de Poniente, donde le han puesto precio a su cabeza. Sus nuevos aliados en esta huida, no obstante, no son los malhechores que aparentan ser, y entre ellos se encuentra aquel que podría impedir que Daenerys se haga del control de Poniente para siempre. Mientras tanto, al norte se halla el colosal Muro de Hielo. Allí, Jon Nieve enfrentará el más grande de los retos: sus más acérrimos enemigos no sólo forman parte de la guardia que dirige, sino que se extienden más allá de la tenebrosa tierra de las criaturas de hielo. De todos los rincones, enconados conflictos cobran nuevos bríos, traiciones íntimas se perpetran y un gran elenco de proscritos y sacerdotes, soldados y criaturas camaleónicas, nobles y esclavos, enfrentarán obstáculos en apariencia insuperables. Algunos fracasarán, otros crecerán en la fuerza de la oscuridad. Pero en tiempos de agitación in crescendo, los hilos del destino y la política arrastrarán a los personajes y al lector, inevitablemente, a la más espectacular de las danzas.

The View cohost and New York Times bestselling author Sunny Hostin dazzles with this brilliant novel about a life-changing summer along the beaches of Martha's Vineyard. Welcome to Oak Bluffs, the most exclusive black beach community in the country. Known for its gingerbread Victorian-style houses and modern architectural marvels, this picturesque town hugging the sea is a mecca for the crème de la crème of black society—where Michelle and Barack Obama vacation and Meghan Markle has shopped for a house for her mom. Black people have lived in this pretty slip of the Vineyard since the 1600s and began buying property in the 1800s, making this posh town the embodiment of “old money.” Thirty years ago, Amelia Vaux Tanner and her husband built a house high on the bluffs, a cottage they named Chateau Laveau. For decades, “Ama” played host to American presidents, Wall Street titans, and cultural icons. But her favorite guests have always been her three “goddaughters:” Esperanza “Perry” Soto, a beautiful, talented Afro-Latina lawyer with Ama’s strong, yet guarded personality; Olivia Jones, a gifted Wall Street analyst with Ama’s brilliant, logical mind; and Billie Hayden, a gifted marine biologist and rule-breaker with Ama’s courageous free spirit. Growing up, these three goddaughters from different backgrounds came together each summer at Chateau Laveau. As adults, the cottage is a place this trio of successful yet very different women go to escape, to slow down from their hectic lives, share private time with Ama, and enjoy the gorgeous weather, cool water, and stunning views Oak Bluffs offers.  This summer on the Bluffs, however, will be different. An era is ending: Ama, now nearing seventy-one, is moving to the south of France to reunite with her college sweetheart. She has invited Perry, Olivia, and Billie to spend one last golden summer together with her the way they did when they were kids. And when fall comes, she is going to give the house to one of them. Each of the women wants the house desperately. Each is grappling with a secret she fears will hurt her and her chances. By the end of summer, old ties will fray, new bonds will be created, and these three found sisters will discover they aren’t the only ones with something to hide. Ama has a few secrets of her own. What she has to give them is far more than property. Between Memorial Day and Labor Day, she will tell these surrogate daughters she fiercely loves and protects everything they never knew they needed to know.

So begins Imbolo Mbue’s powerful second novel, How Beautiful We Were. Set in the fictional African village of Kosawa, it tells of a people living in fear amid environmental degradation wrought by an American oil company. Pipeline spills have rendered farmlands infertile. Children are dying from drinking toxic water. Promises of cleanup and financial reparations to the villagers are made—and ignored. The country’s government, led by a brazen dictator, exists to serve its own interests. Left with few choices, the people of Kosawa decide to fight back. Their struggle will last for decades and come at a steep price.   Told from the perspective of a generation of children and the family of a girl named Thula who grows up to become a revolutionary, How Beautiful We Were is a masterful exploration of what happens when the reckless drive for profit, coupled with the ghost of colonialism, comes up against one community’s determination to hold on to its ancestral land and a young woman’s willingness to sacrifice everything for the sake of her people’s freedom.
