Cuando los planes de Julie de vivienda se hacen pedazos, la antigua compañera de cuarto de su madre, Erin Watkins, la invita a vivir a su casa. Los padres, Erin y Roger, la reciben con los brazos abiertos, pero emocionalmente son distantes. El hijo del medio, Matt es un geek de la tecnología con un lado dulce… y las habilidades sociales de una bobina de cable de USB. La más joven, Celeste, es brillante, pero carga a todas partes una figura de cartón de tamaño real de su hermano mayor a todas las partes a las que va. Y después está el hermano mayor, Finn: divertido, hermoso, inteligente, sensible y emocionalmente disponible. ¿Geográficamente? Definitivamente no disponible. Eso se debe a que Finn viaja por el mundo y sólo sale a la luz al azar por medio de chats en Facebook, correos electrónicos y sus actualizaciones de estado. En poco tiempo, por medio de sus intercambios de texto nocturnos, él comienza a mover algo tierno y tonto e incluso un poco sexy en la solitaria alma de Julie. Para Julie, los emocionalmente inestables miembros de la familia Watkins se suman a algo que… bueno… no tiene sentido. No hasta que ella saca un secreto enterrado a la superficie, provocando una dramática confrontación que amenaza con destruir a la frágil familia Watkins.<

About the Author

A Facebook application once told Jesse Petersen that she'd only survive a day in a zombie outbreak, but she doesn't believe that. For one, she's a good shot and two, she has an aversion to bodily fluids, so she'd never go digging around in zombie goo. Until the zombie apocalypse, she lives in the Midwest with her husband and two cats. Find out more about the author at www.jessepetersen.net.

Terry Pratchett joins up with a leading folklorist to reveal the legends, myths and customs of Discworld, together with helpful hints from Planet Earth. Most of us grew up having always known when to touch wood or cross our fingers, and what happens when a princess kisses a frog or a boy pulls a sword from a stone, yet sadly some of these things are beginning to be forgotten. Legends, myths, and fairy tales: our world is made up of the stories we told ourselves about where we came from and how we got here. It is the same on Discworld, except that beings, which on Earth are creatures of the imagination like vampires, trolls, witches and, possibly, gods are real, alive and, in some cases kicking, on the Disc. InThe Folklore of Discworld, Terry Pratchett teams up with leading British folklorist Jacqueline Simpson to take an irreverent yet illuminating look at the living myths and folklore that are reflected, celebrated and affectionately libelled in the uniquely imaginative universe of Discworld.<

What they're saying about Daniel Pyle: 

Dismember

“Dismember’s a fast-paced grindhouse-movie of a book with plenty of unexpected twists and turns and a fresh new crazy for a villain. The late Richard Laymon would have been grinning ear to ear.”
     —Jack Ketchum, multiple Bram Stoker Award-winning author of The Girl Next Door and The Woman

“With Dismember, Daniel Pyle joins the select group of authors who can provide real chills and genuine surprises. Taut, weird, and intriguing.”
     —Jonathan Maberry, multiple Bram Stoker Award-winning author of The Dragon Factory and The Wolfman

Down the Drain

“Pyle’s tight little monster tale packs a nasty wallop.”
     —Michael Louis Calvillo, author of I Will Rise and As Fate Would Have It

“Horror should be fun. Scary, of course...but above all, it should be fun. Too many people seem to have forgotten that. Well, Daniel Pyle has not forgotten. With his novella, Down the Drain, Pyle has crafted a tale that evokes all the eye-popping strangeness and excitement that got me into horror in the first place. I loved it, and I can guarantee you’ll never look at your bathtub the same again.”

SUMMARY: From the author of The Chosen and My Name Is Asher Lev comes an epic work of nonfiction chronicling the stormy lives of a Jewish father and son whose stories span the entire history of the Soviet Union. Solomon Slepak, an inflexible old-guard Bolshevik - military commander, diplomat, propagandist - not only miraculously survived the murderous purges of the thirties and late forties, despite his high visibility and his Jewish origins, but retained to the last his unwavering faith in the Communist Party. His son, Volodya, was raised as a true believer and easily entered the elite Moscow world of scientists and engineers - until, choosing the path of dissent, he became an internationally renowned "refusenik" hero. For eighteen years he and his wife, Masha, were the objects of government persecution for the "crime" of attempting to leave the Soviet Union - five of those years lost in Siberia as punishment for hanging a banner from the balcony of their Moscow apartment which read "Let us go to our son in Israel". The circumstances that shaped Solomon and Volodya Slepak - their personal and public histories and the clash of their ideologies - form the substance of this remarkable account of a family and a nation. Chaim Potok, who first met the younger Slepaks when they were still under siege in Moscow, tells their story with deep understanding and empathy.<
