Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire

Dit horrorverhaal kan je je nachtrust kosten... 'Hé, Suzie. Had je naar gedroomd?' 'M-mama! Waar i-his mama?' Dikke tranen maken geultjes in de gele schmink op haar wangen. 'Mama en papa zijn naar een feestje vanavond, maar ik pas op. Ik heet Fara, weet je nog?' Tussen haar tranen door begint Suzie te knikken. Ze klemt haar beide armen om mijn hals en haar mond is opeens heel dicht bij mijn oor. 'Ik wil niet dat de clown naar me kijkt.' Ze zegt het zo zachtjes dat ik haar bijna niet versta. Mijn buik trekt zich samen. 'Wat?' 'De clown,' fluistert Suzie. 'Hij stond naast mijn bed.' Fara past een avondje op de kinderen van de familie Zuiderduin. Ze wonen in een groot, bijna kasteelachtig huis in de luxe villawijk van het dorp. Marnix en Suzie zijn lieve kinderen, ze luisteren goed en gaan braaf naar bed. Maar wanneer de stroom uitvalt, Suzie telkens huilend wakker wordt en Fara dingen ziet en hoort die haar een slecht voorgevoel geven, begint ze zich af te vragen of ze deze oppasklus ooit had moeten aannemen… Van de auteur van De eliminatie en De executie: 'Dat Bakhuis een fan is van Stephen King is goed te merken aan haar verhalen, waarin ze de spanning tot het randje weet op te voeren.' Pjotr van Lenteren

Godkiller

Winner of the Reddit Fantasy Award for Best Debut 2018 ‘The best fantasy debut of 2018’ – WIRED A brilliantly imaginative epic fantasy debut, inspired by the bloody history of China’s twentieth century and filled with treachery and magic. When Rin aced the Keju – the test to find the most talented students in the Empire – it was a shock to everyone: to the test officials, who couldn’t believe a war orphan from Rooster Province could pass without cheating; to Rin’s guardians, who had hoped to get rich by marrying her off; and to Rin herself, who realized she was finally free from a life of servitude. That she got into Sinegard – the most elite military school in Nikan – was even more surprising. But surprises aren’t always good. Because being a dark-skinned peasant girl from the south is not an easy thing at Sinegard. Fighting the prejudice of rival classmates, Rin discovers that she possesses a lethal, unearthly power – an aptitude for the nearly-mythical art of shamanism. Exploring the depths of her gift with the help of psychoactive substances and a seemingly insane teacher, Rin learns that gods long thought dead are very much alive – and that mastering these powers could mean more than just surviving school. For while the Nikara Empire is at peace, the Federation of Mugen still lurks across a narrow sea. The Federation occupied Nikan for decades after the First Poppy War, and only barely lost the continent in the Second. And while most people calmly go about their lives, a few are aware that a Third Poppy War is just a spark away…
