Book excerpt: Luis Sepúlveda , a quien el público de lengua española ya conoce bien, tiene dos hijos muy jóvenes, a quienes llama «mis enanos» y a quienes prometió un día escribir una historia acerca de lo mal que gestionamos los humanos nuestro propio entorno, lesionando la naturaleza, que nos brinda tantos bienes, y de paso autolesionándonos sin piedad. Así nació Historia de una gaviota y del gato que le enseñó a volar , que cuenta las aventuras de Zorbas , un gato «grande, negro y gordo», cuyo inquebrantable sentido del honor le conduce un día a comprometerse a criar un polluelo de gaviota. Su madre, una hermosa gaviota, atrapada por una ola de petróleo vertido en el mar por un buque varado, le deja en prenda a Zorbas , justo antes de morir, el huevo que acaba de poner. Zorbas , que es gato de palabra, cumplirá sus dos promesas: no sólo criará al polluelo, sino que le enseñará a volar. Los amigos de Zorbas , Secretario , Sabelotodo, Barlovento y Colonello , le ayudarán en una tarea que, como se verá, no es tan fácil como parece, y menos para una banda de gatos más acostumbrados a hacer frente a la dura vida en un puerto como el de Hamburgo que a hacer de padres de una cría de gaviota... Pensada en principio como un cuento para «enanos», Historia de una gaviota y del gato que le enseñó a volar se dirige en realidad a todos aquellos que, chicos o mayores, no sólo disfrutan con las historias bien contadas que estimulan la imaginación y el ingenio, sino que, a la vez, aprenden a ver el mundo bajo una óptica distinta, conociéndolo mejor y, por lo tanto, amándolo y cuidándolo con más inteligencia.

It will keep you entertained for hours, and will satisfy all ages. Recommended for the permanent library of all fantasy readers.” --Books and Movie Reviews, Roberto Mattos A RITE OF SWORDS is book #7 in the bestselling series THE SORCERER'S RING--which begins with the #1 Bestseller A QUEST OF HEROES (Book #1)! In A RITE OF SWORDS (Book #7 in the Sorcerer's Ring), Thor grapples with his legacy, battling to come to terms with who his father is, whether to reveal his secret, and what action he must take. Back home in the Ring, with Mycoples by his side and the Destiny Sword in hand, Thor is determined to wreak vengeance on Andronicus’ army and liberate his homeland—and to finally propose to Gwendolyn. But he comes to learn that there are forces even greater than he that might just stand in his way. Gwendolyn returns and strives to become the ruler she is destined to be, using her wisdom to unite the disparate forces and drive out Andronicus for good. Reunited with Thor and her brothers, she is grateful for a lull in the violence, and for the chance to celebrate their freedom. But things change quickly—too quickly—and before she knows it, her life is thrown upside down again. Her elder sister, Luanda, caught in a fierce rivalry with her, is determined to wrest power, while King MacGil’s brother arrives with his own army to gain control of the throne. With spies and assassins on all sides, Gwendolyn, embattled, learns that being queen is not as safe as she thought. Reece’s love with Selese finally has a chance to flourish, yet at the same time, his old love appears, and he finds himself torn. But idle times are soon overcome by battle, and Reece, Elden, O’Connor, Conven, Kendrick, Erec and even Godfrey must face and overcome adversity together if they are to survive. Their battles take them to all corners of the Ring, as it becomes a race against time to oust Andronicus and save themselves from complete destruction. As powerful, unexpected forces battle for control of the Ring, Gwen realizes she must do whatever it takes to find Argon and bring him back. In a final, shocking twist, Thor learns that while his powers are supreme, he also has a hidden weakness—one that may just bring his final downfall. Will Thor and the others liberate the Ring and defeat Andronicus? Will Gwendolyn become the queen they all need her to be? What will become of the Destiny Sword, of Erec, Kendrick, Reece and Godfrey? And what is the secret that Alistair is hiding? With its sophisticated world-building and characterization, A RITE OF SWORDS is an epic tale of friends and lovers, of rivals and suitors, of knights and dragons, of intrigues and political machinations, of coming of age, of broken hearts, of deception, ambition and betrayal. It is a tale of honor and courage, of fate and destiny, of sorcery. It is a fantasy that brings us into a world we will never forget, and which will appeal to all ages and genders. Books #8--#17 in the series are now also available! “Jam packed with action, romance, adventure, and suspense. Get your hands on this one and fall in love all over again.” --vampirebooksite.com (regarding Turned)
