In un caldo pomeriggio texano, Cindy Nance rivela a Doug Hoover due grandi segreti della vita. Il primo lo entusiasma, mentre il secondo, che i ragazzi crescono e devono lavorare, lo delude. Attraverso matrimoni falliti e lavori insoddisfacenti, Doug si rende conto della verità delle parole di Cindy. Deluso dal presente, cerca di rivivere le gioie del passato, decidendo di lasciare moglie e lavoro. Tuttavia, la sua vita cambia quando incontra Sue Jean, il sogno di una vita, e Royce, un vagabondo. I tre si ritrovano in un mondo avventuroso, dove la vita, la morte e l’amore assumono nuovi significati. In questo romanzo on the road, le emozioni si intrecciano in un caleidoscopio di follie narrative. La realtà e la magia si confondono, creando un universo in cui tutto sembra possibile. I sogni si mescolano alla vita reale, e le strade conducono esattamente dove si deve andare. Il tono ironico ricorda altri maestri texani, come Larry McMurtry, mentre l'assurdità della narrazione porta alla mente Thomas Pynchon.

Tami Oldhamová a jej snúbenec Richard Sharp boli mladí a zaľúbení, život mali pred sebou. Keď vyrazili na jachte Hazana z Tahiti, obloha bola belasá, slnko žiarivé. Ich cieľom bolo San Diego. Po dvoch týždňoch plavby ich postretla pohroma. Hoci sa všemožne usilovali vyhnúť blížiacemu sa hurikánu, ocitli sa v pasci na rozbúrenom mori, s vlnami vysokými ako mrakodrapy a vetrom fučiacim rýchlosťou 140 uzlov. Richard sa pripútal a zostal na palube, Tami poslal do podpalubia. Poslednou Taminou spomienkou bol Richardov výkrik. Potom nastala tma. Keď sa Tami po niekoľkých hodinách prebrala a vyšla na palubu, zistila, že Richardov bezpečnostný popruh sa utrhol. Kniha Kým prišla búrka je príbeh o tom, ako sa Tami zázračne podarilo po štyridsaťjeden dňoch doplávať do bezpečného prístavu, hoci jej nefungoval motor a nemala sťažne. Je to nezabudnuteľný príbeh o láske, strate a prežití na rozbúrenom mori a o tom, že ani v tých najtemnejších chvíľach nie sme sami.

Zélie si pamätá, že kedysi bola celá krajina Orïsha plná mágie. Ohnivci zapaľovali plamene, Vlnopáni rozkazovali vlnám a Zéliina mama Smrtonoska vzývala duše mŕtvych. No potom mágia kamsi zmizla a všetko sa zmenilo. Všetkých Madžiov na príkaz krutého kráľa vyvraždili, Zélie obrali o mamu a jej ľud o nádej. Teraz však má Zélie jedinečnú šancu zaútočiť na kráľovskú rodinu a vrátiť krajine mágiu. Musí zabrániť korunnému princovi, aby definitívne zničil mágiu, a s pomocou princeznej mu prejsť cez rozum. Na každom kroku na ne číha nebezpečenstvo, z krovín vrčia snežné lepardnéry a vo vodách vyčkávajú pomstychtiví duchovia. Najväčšou hrozbou pre krajinu sa však môže stať práve Zélie – ak sa nenaučí kontrolovať svoju moc. Tomi Adeyemi nadväzuje na tradíciu veľkých fantasy románov. Navyše prišla s neošúchaným námetom čerpajúcim z africkej mytológie a mágie. Autorkin štýl je plný farbistej fantázie, napínavú tajomnú atmosféru spestrujú prvky africkej kultúry a opisy rôznych druhov mágie. Preto sa nemožno čudovať, že filmoví producenti ihneď prejavili záujem a odkúpili práva na sfilmovanie príbehu.

An exhilarating new adventure in the bestselling Oregon Files series. For six novels, Clive Cussler has brought readers into the world of the Oregon, a seemingly dilapidated ship on the outside, but on the inside packed with sophisticated equipment, and captained by the rakish, one-legged Juan Cabrillo. But the Oregon's seventh adventure is its most remarkable yet. On 7 December 1941, four brothers exploring a shaft on a small island off the coast of Washington state make an extraordinary discovery, only to be interrupted by news of Pearl Harbour. In the present, Cabrillo, chasing the remnants of a crashed satellite in the Argentine jungle, makes a shocking discovery of his own. His search to untangle the mystery leads him, first, to that small island and its secret, and then much farther back, to an ancient Chinese expedition, and a curse that seems to have survived for over five hundred years. If Cabrillo's team is successful in its quest, the reward could be incalculable. If not . . . the only reward is death. Praise for Clive Cussler: 'Clive Cussler is hard to beat.'
