PUBLISHER: Orbit

DescriptionAnd it came to pass in those days, as it had come before and would come again, that the Dark lay heavy on the land and weighed down the hearts of men, and the green things failed, and hope died.' - From Charal Drianaan te Calamon, The Cycle of the Dragon. In the Field of Merrilor the rulers of the nations gather to join behind Rand al'Thor, or to stop him from his plan to break the seals on the Dark One's prison - which may be a sign of his madness, or the last hope of humankind. Egwene, the Amyrlin Seat, leans toward the former. In Andor, the Trollocs seize Caemlyn. In the wolf dream, Perrin Aybara battles Slayer. Approaching Ebou Dar, Mat Cauthon plans to visit his wife Tuon, now Fortuona, Empress of the Seanchan. All humanity is in peril - and the outcome will be decided in Shayol Ghul itself. The Wheel is turning, and the Age is coming to its end. The Last Battle will determine the fate of the world...For twenty years The Wheel of Time has enthralled more than forty million readers in over thirty-two languages. A Memory of Light brings this majestic fantasy creation to its richly satisfying conclusion.
Working from notes and partials left by Robert Jordan when he died in 2007, and consulting with Jordan's widow, who edited all of Jordan's books, established fantasy writer Brandon Sanderson has recreated the vision Jordan left behind. |

DescriptionIn Kruispad vertel Paul Young, skrywer van die internasionale topverkoper, The Shack (in Afrikaans uitgegee as Die Shack) , 'n hartroerende storie van transformasie in 'n man se lewe wat vasgevang was in sy eie bestaan, iewers tussen hemel en aarde. Anthony Spencer is 'n selfsugtige en egosentriese sakeman wat niks in die pad van sy sukses laat kom nie. Dit is tot die dag wat hy met serebrale bloeding in die waakeenheid beland. Hy ontwaak in 'n surrealistiese wereld waar hy duidelike interaksies met ander het, en hoewel hy aanneem dat hulle projeksies van sy eie verbeelding is, volg hy nietemin hul riglyne met die hoop dat dit na egtheid en selfs verlossing sal lei. Sal hierdie onverwagse samekoms van gebeure Tony dwing om te besin oor sy lewe en sal hy die moed he om 'n besluit te neem oor 'n kwessie wat 'n ander onreg aangedoen het voor hy in die koma verval het? Paul Young is 'n uiters bekwame skrywer wat nie bang is om onderwerpe van diep teologiese belang aan te pak nie en Kruispad belowe om 'n blywende geestelike en emosionele indruk op lesers te laat en hul lewens te verander. |

Untitled Dirk Pitt 2012
Book Details
AUTHOR: Clive Cussler
ISBN: 9780718177218
Paperback
Engli
PUBLISHER: Michael Joseph Ltd

DescriptionDirk Pitt is oceanography's answer to Indiana Jones," praises the Associated Press. "Exotic locations, ruthless villains and many narrow escapes Cussler's fans come for swashbuckling and he delivers."
And now the Cusslers bring us Pitt's most dangerous adventure of all.
It is the greatest advance in American defense technology in decades an attack submarine capable of incredible underwater speeds. Nothing else in any other nation's naval arsenal even comes close. There is only one problem: A key element of the prototype is missing and the man who developed it is dead.
At the same time, ships have started vanishing mid ocean, usually never to be found again, but when they are, sometimes bodies are found aboard . . . burned to a crisp.What is going on? And what does it have to do with an Italian submarine that itself disappeared in 1943, lost at sea? Or was she?
It is up to NUMA director Dirk Pitt and his team, aided by a beautiful NCIS agent and by Pitt's children, marine engineer Dirk and oceanographer Summer, to go on a desperate international chase to find the truth, from Washington to Mexico, Idaho to Panama. What they discover at the end of it is a much, much greater threat than even they imagined.
If they don't succeed in their mission, the world as they know it might end up a very different place and not a pleasant one.
Filled with breathtaking suspense and extraordinary imagination, Poseidon's Arrow is further proof that when it comes to adventure writing, nobody beats Clive Cussler. |
