Sumérjanse en las páginas de nuestra historia, intrépidos lectores, y descubran qué es más fácil: sobrevivir a una invasión marciana o conquistar el corazón de una dama que no cree en el amor. Ganadora del Premio Ignotus a la mejor novela 2013. En el caluroso verano de 1835, un hombre hizo soñar al mundo revelándole que la Luna estaba habitada por unicornios, hombres murciélago y otros seres fantásticos. Y aunque no tardó en demostrarse que aquello era una gran mentira, muchos prefirieron seguir creyendo que allí se almacenaban los sueños que podían hacer sus vidas más hermosas. Más de sesenta años después, su biznieta Emma Harlow, solicitada por lo más granado de la alta sociedad de Nueva York, sabe que solo podrá enamorarse de alguien capaz de hacer soñar al mundo como lo hizo su bisabuelo. Por eso exige a Montgomery Gilmore, su más infatigable pretendiente, que reproduzca la invasión marciana descrita en La guerra de los mundos, la novela de H. G. Welles. Pero para el millonario no hay nada imposible: los marcianos invadirán la Tierra, aunque esta vez sea por amor. ¿Qué ocurre cuando los sueños se convierten en pesadillas? ¿Tenemos que dejar de soñar? La crítica ha dicho... «Sencillamente brillante.» Publishers Weekly «Una deliciosa mezcla de géneros.» The Washington Post «Aquellos lectores que se aventuren en este viaje serán sobradamente recompensados. Palma mezcla con éxito las figuras históricas y la ciencia ficción dentro de una vertiginosa y exuberante historia de amor, asesinato y locuacidad.» Booklist «Una asombrosa montaña rusa de erudición y extravagancia.» Le Nouvel Observateur «Con gran talento, Palma rompe una lanza por la literatura.» Frankfurter Neue Presse «Lo digo tal y como lo siento, esta novela me ha ganado por completo: es fascinante, gótica y romántica, de un suspense trepidante.» Kristeligt Dagblad

The fate of the earth hangs in the balance as H.G. Wells’ The War of the Worlds is transformed from the work of one writer’s imagination into a terrifying reality for all mankind. 1898. New York socialite Emma Harlow agrees to marry well-to-do Montgomery Gilmore, but only if he first accepts her audacious challenge: to reproduce the Martian invasion featured in H. G. Wells’s popular novel The War of the Worlds. Meanwhile in London, Wells himself is unexpectedly made privy to certain objects, apparently of extraterrestrial origin, that were discovered decades earlier on an ill-fated expedition to the Antarctic. On that same expedition was an American crew member named Edgar Allan Poe, whose inexplicable experiences in the frozen wasteland would ultimately inspire him to create one of his most enduring works of literature. When eerie, alien-looking cylinders begin appearing in London, Wells is certain it is all part of some elaborate hoax. But soon, to his great horror, he realizes that a true invasion of Earth has indeed begun. As brave bands of citizens converge on a crumbling London to defend it against utter ruin, Emma and her suitor must confront the enigma that is their love, a bright spark of hope even against the darkening light of apocalypse. Palma dazzled readers with his instant New York Times bestseller The Map of Time. In The Map of the Sky, he embarks on an even more thrilling speculative journey, one that links the earth and the heavens, the familiar and the bizarre, the impossible and the inevitable.

From the New York Times bestselling author of The Map of Time and The Map of the Sky, the final installment in the award-winning trilogy that The Washington Post called “a big, genre-bending delight.” When the person he loves most dies in tragic circumstances, the mysterious protagonist of The Map of Chaos does all he can to speak to her one last time. A session with a renowned medium seems to offer the only solution, but the experience unleashes terrible forces that bring the world to the brink of disaster. Salvation can only be found in The Map of Chaos, an obscure, hand-written mathematical treatise that he is desperate to uncover. In his search, he is given invaluable help by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Lewis Carroll, and of course by H.G. Wells, whose Invisible Man seems to have escaped from the pages of his famous novel to sow terror among mankind. They alone can discover the means to save the world and to find the path that will reunite the lovers separated by death. Proving once again that he is “a master of ingenious plotting” (Kirkus Reviews), Félix J. Palma brings together a cast of real and imagined literary characters in Victorian London, when spiritualism is at its height. The Map of Chaos is a spellbinding adventure that mixes impossible loves, nonstop action, real ghosts, and fake mediums, all while paying homage to the giants of science fiction.

This instant New York Times bestselling page-turner features a cast of real and imagined literary characters, cunning intertwined plots, and stars a skeptical H.G. Wells as a time-traveling investigator in Victorian London. Characters real and imaginary come vividly to life in this whimsical triple play of intertwined plots, in which a skeptical H. G. Wells is called upon to investigate purported incidents of time travel and to save lives and literary classics, including Dracula and The Time Machine, from being wiped from existence. What happens if we change history? Félix J. Palma explores this provocative question, weaving a historical fantasy as imaginative as it is exciting—a story full of love and adventure that transports readers from a haunting setting in Victorian London to a magical reality where centuries collide and a writer’s mind seems to pull at all the strings.

This book is the definitive critical history of science fiction. The 2006 first edition of this work traced the development of the genre from Ancient Greece and the European Reformation through to the end of the 20th century. This new 2nd edition has been revised thoroughly and very significantly expanded. An all-new final chapter discusses 21st-century science fiction, and there is new material in every chapter: a wealth of new readings and original research. The author’s groundbreaking thesis that science fiction is born out of the 17th-century Reformation is here bolstered with a wide range of new supporting material and many hundreds of 17th- and 18th-century science fiction texts, some of which have never been discussed before. The account of 19th-century science fiction has been expanded, and the various chapters tracing the twentieth-century bring in more writing by women, and science fiction in other media including cinema, TV, comics, fan-culture and other modes.

Dalle narrazioni orali popolari e poi trascritte, a quelle letterarie, alle storie mass mediali, la fiaba racchiude una lunga avventura che giunge fino ai giorni nostri: versioni illustrate, riduzioni, traduzioni a volte ardite, censure, prosecuzioni, pretesti narrativi, rovesciamenti, parodie, riscritture, adattamenti e attualizzazioni che ribadiscono la naturale predisposizione del genere fiabesco al meticciamento, alle incontrollabili stratificazioni e agli intrecci culturali. Il libro intende scandagliare questo mondo, muovendo da modelli visivi e riflessioni storico˗critiche˗comparative sullʼorigine della fiaba e sulle sue interpretazioni che continuano a rappresentare il cambiamento e le sfaccettature della società: non una mera e pedissequa ripetizione delle antiche trame, ma spesso trasposizioni che, prendendo spunto dagli orditi tradizionali, li reinterpretano mettendo in scena la nostra contemporaneità.

Soon after, the village is attacked by Trollocs—a savage tribe of half-men half-beasts. Rand's father is nearly killed. But for Rand, the news gets worse. It was not the village the Trollocs were after, Moiraine tells him. It was you, Rand. Rand and his friends are forced to flee. But his escape will bring him face to face with the Dark One...the most powerful force of evil in the universe.
