The Alien™ Series

Aliens: Bug Hunt

Milo’s Louisiana bayou is overrun with alien bug invaders and magical creatures in this start to a breathtaking series that’s “the perfect mix of science fiction and magic” (Kirkus Reviews, starred review) from bestselling author Jonathan Maberry. In a world filled with Bugs—monsters that ceaselessly ravage the Earth—Milo Silk has a hard time keeping his dreams separate from reality. So he keeps them locked up in his dream journal and hopes they’ll never come to pass. But too often, they do—like when his father disappeared three years ago. Lately, the Witch of the World has been haunting his dreams, saying he is destined to be the hero who saves everyone. But all Milo can think about is how he fears the Bugs will attack his own camp, and bring something even more terrible than ever before. What Milo doesn’t know is that the Earth is already fighting back with its own natural power in the form of Nightsiders, magical creatures who prefer shadows to sunlight and who reside in trees, caves, and rivers. And the Nightsiders are ready to find an ally in Milo…

The Nightsiders

The Orphan Army

Capturing the electric short fiction energy that led Robert E. Howard to be one of the top fantasy writers of the century, with exclusive serialized eBook stories starring Conan, Solomon Kane, and more by many of today's top writers in fantasy and sword-and-sorcery. Created by the author responsible for Conan of Cimmeria, Solomon Kane is "a man born out of his time—a strange blending of Puritan and cavalier, with a touch of the ancient philosopher, and more than a touch of the pagan… a knight errant in the somber clothes of the fanatic. A hunger in his soul drove him on and on, an urge to right all wrongs, protect all weaker things, avenge all crimes against right and justice."—Robert E. Howard, "The Moon of Skulls"

Die Buchvorlage zur großen Netflix-Serie von und mit Ian Somerhalder. Als der drittklassige Hollywoodschauspieler Michael Fayne neben der brutal verstümmelten Leiche eines One-Night-Stands aufwacht, weiß er zwei Dinge noch nicht. Erstens: Die junge Frau wird nicht sein einziges Opfer bleiben. Und zweitens: Er ist Patient Zero: Träger eines Virus, der aus Menschen … etwas anderes macht. Der Wissenschaftler Dr. Luther Swann beschäftigt sich mit einem eher aparten Spezialgebiet. Sein akademisches Interesse gilt den volkstümlichen Überlieferungen zum Vampir-Mythos. Als man ihn bittet, Gutachter in einem Mordfall zu werden, ist das für ihn absolutes Neuland. Er ahnt noch nicht, wie gefragt seine Meinung in den folgenden Monaten sein wird. Und welche Entscheidungen ihm abverlangt werden. Denn als die alten Mythen Wirklichkeit werden und immer mehr Vampire auftauchen, wird Luther Swann zum gefragten Experten für das neue Phänomen. Kann er verhindern, dass sich Menschen und Vampire buchstäblich an die Gurgel gehen und gegenseitig auslöschen? Will er das verhindern? Fest steht nur: Amerika hat sich in ein Pulverfass verwandelt und Swann muss versuchen, inmitten der sich überstürzenden Ereignisse einen kühlen Kopf bewahren. Auf dem Spiel steht nicht weniger als die Existenz der Menschheit. Für Leser von Bram Stoker, Anne Rice, Lisa J. Smith und Justin Cronin und Fans der Serien Vampire Diaries, Dexter, The Walking Dead und Buffy.

Il signor Tasche

En el mundo postapocalíptico infestado de zombis donde vive Benny, todo adolescente debe encontrar trabajo al cumplir quince años o su ración de comida será reducida a la mitad. Benny no quiere ser aprendiz de su hermano mayor Tom Imura, un mítico cazador de zombis armado con una katana al que llaman "el Samurái", pero no le queda otra opción. Cuando comienza a acompañar a Tom a la zona llamada "Ruina y Putrefacción", habitada exclusivamente por zombis, piensa simplemente que tendrá que matar zombis por dinero, sin embargo, allí descubrirá algo mucho más importante que le enseñará lo que significa ser humano. Acompañado de sus amigos, Benny se aventurará en un viaje más allá de la seguridad de su pueblo cercado para entrar en el mundo de los muertos. En el camino, deberá enfrentarse a un mal más grande que el de los infectados: la crueldad que corroe a los vivos. "Una impresionante mezcla de significado y caos." Booklist "Una mirada llena de acción que invita a reflexionar sobre la vida y la muerte, mientras el lector habrá de determinar cuál es el verdadero enemigo." Kirkus Reviews

Ruina y putrefacción

Han pasado seis meses desde la aterradora batalla en las montañas infestadas de zombis de Ruina y Putrefacción. También han pasado seis meses desde que Benny Imura y Nix Riley vieron algo en el aire que les cambió la vida. Ahora, después de este tiempo de riguroso entrenamiento con Tom, Benny y Nix están listos para abandonar su hogar para siempre y buscar un futuro mejor. Lilah, la chica perdida, y el mejor amigo de Benny, Lou Chong, los acompañarán. Parece fácil. Parece maravilloso. Pero todo lo que podía salir mal, sale mal. Tan pronto como entran en Ruina y Putrefacción, son perseguidos, no sólo por los muertos vivientes, sino también por animales salvajes, asesinos locos y los horrores de Gameland, donde los adolescentes se ven obligados a luchar por subsistir en las fosas de los zombis. Y lo peor de todo… ¿podría seguir presente la amenaza del malvado Charlie Ojo Rosa? En Ruina y Putrefacción todo lo que existe quiere acabar con cualquier reducto de humanidad. ¿Podrán Benny y sus amigos vivir para contarlo? "Una impresionante mezcla de significado y caos." Booklist "En esta secuela de acción casi ininterrumpida de Ruina y Putrefacción, los ataques de los zombis son mayores, mejores y más sangrientos." Kirkus Reviews

Polvo y decadencia

Todavía afectados por la devastación vivida en Polvo y decadencia, Benny Imura y sus amigos se sumergen en la profundidad de los páramos infestados de zombis de Ruina y Putrefacción. Benny, Nix, Lilah y Chong viajan a través del feroz desierto que una vez fuera su hogar en busca del avión que vieron en los cielos hace meses. Si ese avión existe realmente, entonces la humanidad debe haber sobrevivido… en algún lugar. Encontrarlo es su mayor esperanza de tener un futuro y una vida que valga la pena vivir. Pero el territorio de Ruina y Putrefacción es mucho más peligroso de lo que cualquiera de ellos pueda imaginar. Son perseguidos por animales feroces. Se enfrentan cara a cara a una secta mortal. Y además están los zombis: auténticas hordas provenientes del este que lo devoran todo a su paso. Y estos zombis son diferentes. Más rápidos, más inteligentes e infinitamente más peligrosos. ¿Es posible que la plaga haya mutado o se esconde algo mucho más siniestro detrás de esta nueva invasión de muertos vivientes? Sea como sea, hay una cosa que Benny y sus compañeros no se pueden permitir olvidar: todo lo que existe (vivo o muerto) en Ruina y Putrefacción intentará acabar con sus vidas. «Los zombis son tendencia en la literatura juvenil, pero la serie abanderada sigue siendo la espectacular y trepidante tetralogía de Maberry que comenzó con Ruina y putrefacción y Polvo y decadencia. Esperar la completa conclusión en el cuarto volumen no será tarea fácil». Booklist «Jonathan Maberry nos demuestra que a la tercera vez va la vencida y nos trae aún más aventura y terror, mientras continúa la serie Ruina y putrefacción». Kirkus Reviews

Carne y hueso

Benny Imura y sus amigos han llegado al Santuario que ansiaban encontrar, pero no es lo que esperaban. En lugar de ser un refugio, el Santuario es un hospital para enfermos terminales y los soldados que pilotaban el avión que han estado siguiendo parecen ser poco más que burócratas que han perdido la esperanza en el futuro de la civilización. Mientras Chong se debate entre la vida y la muerte, aferrándose a lo que aún le queda de humanidad, Benny hace un descubrimiento sorprendente: una científica podría haber descubierto una cura para la plaga zombi. Desesperados por salvar a Chong, Benny y sus amigos organizan una misión de búsqueda y rescate. Pero no son los únicos a la caza. Los segadores también persiguen la cura y quieren usarla para convertir a todos los zombis en tropas de asalto imbatibles para extinguir a los seres humanos de la faz de la tierra. En esta fascinante conclusión de la serie Ruina y putrefacción, la última batalla apenas acaba de comenzar. «Maberry nos ofrece una conclusión a la altura de su popular serie Ruina y putrefacción... Al final, esta apasionante saga de zombis trata realmente sobre esperanza y amor». Kirkus Reviews «[Los lectores] quedarán cautivados por este final que maneja su gran elenco de personajes con una claridad asombrosa». Booklist
