Fantasy & Sci-Fi

<b>The long-awaited explosive climax to the first arc of the #1 New York Times bestselling Stormlight Archive--the iconic epic fantasy masterpiece that has sold more than 10 million copies, from acclaimed bestselling author Brandon Sanderson.</b><br/><br/>Dalinar Kholin challenged the evil god Odium to a contest of champions with the future of Roshar on the line. The Knights Radiant have only ten days to prepare--and the sudden ascension of the crafty and ruthless Taravangian to take Odium's place has thrown everything into disarray. <br/><br/>Desperate fighting continues simultaneously worldwide--Adolin in Azir, Sigzil and Venli at the Shattered Plains, and Jasnah in Thaylenah. The former assassin, Szeth, must cleanse his homeland of Shinovar from the dark influence of the Unmade. He is accompanied by Kaladin, who faces a new battle helping Szeth fight his own demons . . . and who must do the same for the insane Herald of the Almighty, Ishar. <br/><br/>At the same time, Shallan, Renarin, and Rlain work to unravel the mystery behind the Unmade Ba-Ado-Mishram and her involvement in the enslavement of the singer race and in the ancient Knights Radiant killing their spren. And Dalinar and Navani seek an edge against Odium's champion that can be found only in the Spiritual Realm, where memory and possibility combine in chaos. The fate of the entire Cosmere hangs in the balance.<br/><br/>Other Tor books by Brandon Sanderson <br/><br/>The Cosmere The Stormlight Archive<br/> The Way of Kings<br/> Words of Radiance<br/> Edgedancer (novella)<br/> Oathbringer<br/> Dawnshard (novella)<br/> Rhythm of War <br/><br/>The Mistborn Saga The Original Trilogy<br/> Mistborn<br/> The Well of Ascension<br/> The Hero of Ages <br/><br/>Wax &amp; Wayne<br/> The Alloy of Law<br/> Shadows of Self<br/> The Bands of Mourning<br/> The Lost Metal<br/><br/>Other Cosmere novels<br/> Elantris<br/> Warbreaker<br/> Tress of the Emerald Sea<br/> Yumi and the Nightmare Painter<br/> The Sunlit Man <br/><br/>Collection<br/> Arcanum Unbounded: The Cosmere Collection <br/><br/>Alcatraz vs. the Evil Librarians<br/> Alcatraz vs. the Evil Librarians<br/> The Scrivener's Bones<br/> The Knights of Crystallia<br/> The Shattered Lens<br/> The Dark Talent<br/> Bastille vs. the Evil Librarians (with Janci Patterson) <br/><br/>Other novels<br/> The Rithmatist<br/> Legion: The Many Lives of Stephen Leeds<br/> The Frugal Wizard's Handbook for Surviving Medieval England <br/><br/>Other books by Brandon Sanderson <br/><br/>The Reckoners<br/> Steelheart<br/> Firefight<br/> Calamity<br/> Lux (with Steven Michael Bohls) <br/><br/>Skyward<br/> Skyward<br/> Starsight<br/> Cytonic<br/> Skyward Flight (with Janci Patterson)<br/> Defiant

This Inevitable Ruin [Bok / Inbunden]

»Bröderna Strugatskij -- det är mäktig, begåvad litteratur <i>på riktigt</i>. Levande klassiker i ordets rätta bemärkelse. De är galaktiska stjärnor av samma storleksordning som en Ray Bradbury eller en Kurt Vonnegut, tro mig. Ni har bara inte kunnat se dem ordentligt hos er på det västra halvklotet.« <i>Dmitrij Gluchovskij</i><br/><br/><br/><br/><b>År 2157.</b> Ungkommunisten och rymdutforskaren Maxim Kammerer kraschlandar och blir strandsatt på en okänd planet som visar sig vara bebodd av humanoider. Han inleder genast en första kontakt och blir snart indragen i planeten Sarakshs primitiva livsföring och obegripliga politiska konflikter, som står i bjärt kontrast till Jorden där det klasslösa samhället har förverkligats och alla lever i harmoni. En dag bestämmer han sig för att omkullkasta den rådande ordningen...<br/><br/>»Den bebodda ön« av Arkadij och Boris Strugatskij från 1969/71 är en av de mest inflytelserika science fiction-romanerna från sovjettiden och har en särskild plats inom rysk litteraturhistoria med sin dystopiska och filosofiska skildring av individens kamp mot totalitära system och sina reflektioner om maktmissbruk, fri vilja och ideologisk manipulation. Romanen har inte tidigare översatts till svenska. <br/><br/>Efterord Boris Strugatskij <br/><br/>Översättning Ola Wallin <br/><br/><i></i>

Bonds Of Hercules (deluxe Limited Edition) [Bok / Inbunden]

An exciting 2025 release by bestselling Piatkus author!

<b>WELCOME TO THE ROMANTASY EVENT OF 2025 . . .</b><br/><br/>Fionamara is a smuggler. Antal is the reason her people fear the dark.<br/><br/>Fi ferries contraband between worlds, stockpiling funds and stolen magic to keep her village self-sufficient - free from the blood sacrifices humans have paid to Antal's immortal species for centuries.<br/><br/>Only legends whispered through the pine forests recall a time when things were different, before one world shattered into many, and the flesh-devouring beasts crept from the cracks between realities, with their sable antlers and slender tails, lethal claws and gleaming fangs. Now, mortal lives are food to pacify their carnivorous overlords, exchanged for feudal protection, and the precious silver energy that fuels everything from transport to weaponry.<br/><br/>When Fi gets planted with a stash of smuggled energy, a long-lost flame recruits her for a reckless heist that escalates into a terrorist bombing - and a coup against the reigning immortals, with Fi's home caught in the crossfire.<br/><br/>She's always known the dangers of her trade - and of the power she's wielded since childhood, allowing her to see the secret doors between dimensions, to walk the Void itself. But nothing could have prepared her for crossing paths with Antal. For the deal she'll have to make with him, a forced partnership to reclaim his city that begins as a desperate bid for survival, only to grow into something far more dangerous.<br/><br/>A revolution.<br/><br/>And a temptation - for how sweet the monster's fangs might feel.<br/><br/><b>From the author of the instant <i>Sunday Times</i>-bestselling <i>The Phoenix Keeper</i> comes an era-defining new fantasy universe where spicy romantasy meets the Cosmere, unmissable for fans of the world-building scale of Sarah J. Maas and the world-shifting stakes of Rebecca Yarros.</b><br/><br/><b><i>Voidwalker </i>will be your next romantasy obsession, a deliciously feral story that started with just two words: "bite me".</b>
