Tour de compras (literarias)

Paseando por Florida y Lavalle en busca de libros pockets en inglés, a veces es decepcionante. Especialmente cuando sólo encontrás títulos mainstream de autores como James Patterson, Nora Roberts y Stephen King. Libros que se pueden encontrar en cualquier librería.
Por suerte, algunas veces tenemos suerte y encontramos pockets interesantes entre los saldos, aunque no siempre tienen precios de saldo- al menos no los precios de saldos de España- pero siguen siendo convenientes.

Title: The Queen's Gambit
Book: Dain series 01
Author(s): Deborah Chester
Genre: Fantasy
Publisher: Ace
November 2002





The throne was her destiny – until Princess Pheresa lost her groom, Mandria´s heir, to the dark magic that consumed him. Now Pheresa´s fate is uncertain, even when the great King Verence names her Princess Royal – because the title comes with one condition: She must take Lervan, a man of acceptable birth and rank, as her husband. Reluctantly, she agrees.
Then, without warning, the old king dies. And Pheresa succeds to the throne. But all is not well. Many fear that Pheresa has been weakened by evil magic. Her enemies are strong. Her husband plots against her. And her only ally is the last man she would ever choose – and the one man she should never love.

Book: The Hurog Duology 02
Author(s): Patricia Briggs
Genre: Fantasy
Publisher: Ace
December 2002




Ward, ruler of Hurog, joins the rebels against the tyrannical High King Jakoven. But Jakoven has a secret weapon with which he intends to crush the rebellion: Farsonsbane, a magical artifact that has destroyed entire cities. But first, Jakoven needs blood to awaken it. Dragon's blood. The very blood that courses through Ward's veins...
