In the stunning continuation of the epic adventure begun in “Hyperion”, Simmons returns us to a far future resplendent with drama and invention. On the world of Hyperion, the mysterious Time Tombs are opening. And the secrets they contain mean that nothing—nothing anywhere in the universe—will ever be the same.
Дойде и третата учебна година в училището за магия и вълшебство Хогуортс, а с нея и новите страховити приключения на Хари Потър.
…Писъците бяха спрели, ледената вълна се отдръпваше…
В третата книга от поредицата за Хари Потър загадките стават все повече и все по-сложни. Около Хари се явяват зловещи призрачни създания, а затворник беглец, обвинен в масово убийство, се опитва да се добере до него. Но малкият магьосник не се предава, напротив — започва специално обучение за самозащита. Неговите лични страхове и кошмари се заплитат в горещо кълбо и разплитането им ще разкрие истината за част от историята на училището и някои от най-добрите му възпитаници… Тази истина е красива и страшна!
За Хари четвъртата учебна година в „Хогуортс“ започва. Предстои му още едно голямо събитие, което ще го накара да забрави ужасното лято: световното първенство по куидич. И още едно състезание ще занимава учениците през учебната година: Тримагическият турнир, в който Хари играе такава роля, каквато дори в мечтите си не си е представял. Разбира се, зад това се крие Злото, което отново иска да излезе наяве: лорд Волдемор. Ще стане тясно за Хари, много тясно. И все пак Хари винаги може да разчита на подкрепата на своите приятели и в най-безнадеждните ситуации.
An eine Rückkehr nach Hogwarts ist für Harry nicht zu denken. Er muss alles daransetzen, die fehlenden Horkruxe zu finden, um zu vollenden, was Dumbledore und er begonnen haben. Erst wenn sie zerstört sind, kann Voldemorts Schreckensherrschaft vergehen. Mit Ron und Hermine an seiner Seite und einem magischen Zelt im Gepäck begibt sich Harry auf eine gefährliche Reise, quer durch das ganze Land. Als die drei dabei auf die rätselhaften Heiligtümer des Todes stoßen, muss Harry sich entscheiden. Soll er dieser Spur folgen? Doch er ahnt schon jetzt: Welche Wahl er auch trifft – am Ende des Weges wird der Dunkle Lord auf ihn warten...

Blind dates can be bad, but Sarah Dearly's date is a true contender for worst ever. His neck nibbling didn't just leave a bruise; it turns her into a vampire, and the newest target for a pack of zealot vampire hunters. With her date now their latest victim, Sarah runs for her immortal life - straight into Thierry de Bennicoeur, a master vampire who is just a wee bit suicidal. Thierry can't resist a damsel in distress and agrees to teach Sarah how to live the vampire life if she'll help him end his own. But as it turns out, Sarah may be his best reason for living. Bitten & Smitten is a study in contrasts: frothy chick-lit wrapped around a grittier reality and a flip side featuring a modern heroine paired with a Brontean hero. And Rowen makes it all work together beautifully.
My name is Sarah Dearly, and I've got major problems. Last month, I was turned into a vampire by the world's worst blind date. Then I may have, totally by accident, started a war between the mostly peaceful bloodsuckers and a bunch of sociopathic vamp hunters who have nicknamed me the Slayer of Slayers. Now I'm being used as bait to draw out the hunters' bad-ass leader, while my gorgeous 600-year-old boyfriend Thierry seems to be blowing me off, and my sizzle-hot, fanged friend Quinn is trying to turn my self-defense lessons into make-out sessions. So you know what? I'm done. I've had it. There comes a time when a vamp has to just suck it up and go after what she wants. And as soon as I figure out what that is, that's exactly what I'll do...
Former vampire hunter Michael Quinn is living a nightmare: he's been turned into a vampire. His only hope is the "Eye" - a long-lost artifact that, once every millennium, will grant one wish to its possessor. Fortunately for Quinn, he has a map detailing the path to the "Eye." All he needs to do is find it, then he can wish himself back into humanity.
Janie Parker has made a lot of many mistakes in her life, not the least of which was getting tricked into working for a demon. Not only is the pay awful, but she has to successfully complete all her unsavory assignments or risk a torturous death. Her latest mission is to track a vampire who apparently knows where some stupid treasure is. No problem. Until she sees who the vampire is - Michael Quinn, a man she's had a crush on since she was twelve years old. Too bad she'll have to kill him to get to the "Eye."
But Quinn and Janie are kindred spirits, and soon they're falling in love even though they're after what the other person is desperate for: the "Eye".
