Het spannende en romantische vervolg op De glazen troon Celeana Sardothien – sterk en dodelijk gevaarlijk, maar ook kwetsbaar... Ze is een sluipmoordenares met een mysterieus verleden en het enige wat ze wil is haar vrijheid. Dan wordt tegen haar wil betrokken bij de strijd tegen het kwaad dat haar wereld bedreigt, een strijd die haar meer leert dan ze ooit voor mogelijk had gehouden. Celaena Sardothien mag dan de kampioen van de koning zijn geworden, haar trouw aan de kroon is nihil. Ze balanceert op een levensgevaarlijk koord dat bij één verkeerde beweging kan breken. Dan blijken er nog meer duistere krachten aan het werk dan Celaena al vermoedde en komt alles wat ze liefheeft in gevaar. Ze zal keuzes moeten maken: wie kan ze vertrouwen en wie is het waard om voor te vechten?

De donkere kroon

Geen voorkennis van de serie vereist, dus perfect voor nieuwe lezers. Celaena Sardothien is Adarlans meest gevreesde sluipmoordenaar. Officieel ligt haar loyaliteit bij Arobynn Hamel, meester van het Sluipmoordenaarsgilde, maar in werkelijkheid vertrouwt ze alleen haar collega Sam. In deze vijf verhalen, die zich afspelen vóór De glazen troon, volgen we Celaena op vijf gevaarlijke missies, van afgelegen eilanden tot woestijnen vol vijanden, waar ze vecht om slaven te bevrijden en zich te wreken op tirannieke heersers. Maar er is één probleem: deze missies gaan recht in tegen het beleid van Arobynn Hamel. En op verraad staat de allerhoogste straf…

Het mes van de sluipmoordenaar

Hoewel ze niets liever wil dan de dood van haar dierbare vriendin wreken, moet ze aan een nieuwe reis beginnen om de strijd met haar duistere waarheid aan te gaan. Een waarheid over haar erfenis die haar toekomst voorgoed kan veranderen... Ondertussen verzamelen haar vijanden zich aan de horizon met maar één doel: de inwoners van het koninkrijk tot slavernij dwingen. Om ze te verslaan moet Celaena de kracht vinden om niet alleen haar eigen demonen te overwinnen, maar ook het kwaad dat op het punt van uitbreken staat. Als ze wint wordt ze Adarlans grootste bedreiging – en zijn grootste vijand. In de pers 'Wie begint kan niet meer stoppen met lezen. Deze wereld slokt je op en laat je niet meer los.'

A Bustle ""30 Best Fiction Books of 2018"" pick! “I have no doubt this will end up being the best fantasy debut of the year [...] I have absolutely no doubt that [Kuang’s] name will be up there with the likes of Robin Hobb and N.K. Jemisin.” -- Booknest A brilliantly imaginative talent makes her exciting debut with this epic historical military fantasy, inspired by the bloody history of China’s twentieth century and filled with treachery and magic, in the tradition of Ken Liu’s Grace of Kings and N.K. Jemisin’s Inheritance Trilogy. When Rin aced the Keju—the Empire-wide test to find the most talented youth to learn at the Academies—it was a shock to everyone: to the test officials, who couldn’t believe a war orphan from Rooster Province could pass without cheating; to Rin’s guardians, who believed they’d finally be able to marry her off and further their criminal enterprise; and to Rin herself, who realized she was finally free of the servitude and despair that had made up her daily existence. That she got into Sinegard—the most elite military school in Nikan—was even more surprising. But surprises aren’t always good. Because being a dark-skinned peasant girl from the south is not an easy thing at Sinegard. Targeted from the outset by rival classmates for her color, poverty, and gender, Rin discovers she possesses a lethal, unearthly power—an aptitude for the nearly-mythical art of shamanism. Exploring the depths of her gift with the help of a seemingly insane teacher and psychoactive substances, Rin learns that gods long thought dead are very much alive—and that mastering control over those powers could mean more than just surviving school. For while the Nikara Empire is at peace, the Federation of Mugen still lurks across a narrow sea. The militarily advanced Federation occupied Nikan for decades after the First Poppy War, and only barely lost the continent in the Second. And while most of the people are complacent to go about their lives, a few are aware that a Third Poppy War is just a spark away . . . Rin’s shamanic powers may be the only way to save her people. But as she finds out more about the god that has chosen her, the vengeful Phoenix, she fears that winning the war may cost her humanity . . . and that it may already be too late.

The forerunner to The Lord of the Rings, The Silmarillion tells the earlier history of Middle-earth, recounting the events of the First and Second Ages, and introducing some of the key characters, such as Galadriel, Elrond, Elendil and the Dark Lord, Sauron. The tales of The Silmarillion are set in an age when Morgoth, the first Dark Lord, dwelt in Middle-earth, and the High Elves made war upon him for the recovery of the Silmarils, the jewels containing the pure light of Valinor. Included on the recording are several shorter works. The Ainulindalë is a myth of the Creation and in the Valaquenta the nature and powers of each of the gods is described. The Akallabêth recounts the downfall of the great island kingdom of Númenor at the end of the Second Age, and Of the Rings of Power tells of the great events at the end of the Third Age, as narrated in The Lord of the Rings. This brand-new unabridged recording is read by the acclaimed actor, director and author, Andy Serkis.

De Grote Jacht is het tweede boek van Robert Jordans klassieke fantasycyclus Het Rad des Tijds, een epos van maar liefst 15 boeken waarmee hij wereldwijd een miljoenenpubliek aan zich wist te binden. Prime Video baseerde er The Wheel of Time-tv-serie op. De Hoorn van Valere is een legendarisch artefact dat naar verluidt de helden van weleer kan oproepen. Om die reden wordt elke honderd jaar de Grote Jacht op de Hoorn aangekondigd. Elke nieuwe jacht leidt onveranderlijk tot nieuwe avonturen die door de barden worden bezongen. Maar dit keer verloopt alles anders. De Hoorn is gevonden en dat feit zorgt voor veel onrust. Want de Hoorn verkeert nu in handen van het Kwaad... Rhand Altor wordt gedwongen deel te nemen aan de levensgevaarlijke spelen terwijl hij angstvallig probeert zijn geheimen bij zich te houden. En waar Rhand gaat, is niemand veilig. ‘Robert Jordan is verreweg de populairste fantasy-auteur, en dat laat zich heel goed verklaren.’ The New York Times

De Grote Jacht

From award-winning author R. F. Kuang comes Babel, a thematic response to The Secret History and a tonal retort to Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell that grapples with student revolutions, colonial resistance, and the use of language and translation as the dominating tool of the British empire. Traduttore, traditore: An act of translation is always an act of betrayal. 1828. Robin Swift, orphaned by cholera in Canton, is brought to London by the mysterious Professor Lovell. There, he trains for years in Latin, Ancient Greek, and Chinese, all in preparation for the day he’ll enroll in Oxford University’s prestigious Royal Institute of Translation—also known as Babel. Babel is the world's center for translation and, more importantly, magic. Silver working—the art of manifesting the meaning lost in translation using enchanted silver bars—has made the British unparalleled in power, as its knowledge serves the Empire’s quest for colonization. For Robin, Oxford is a utopia dedicated to the pursuit of knowledge. But knowledge obeys power, and as a Chinese boy raised in Britain, Robin realizes serving Babel means betraying his motherland. As his studies progress, Robin finds himself caught between Babel and the shadowy Hermes Society, an organization dedicated to stopping imperial expansion. When Britain pursues an unjust war with China over silver and opium, Robin must decide… Can powerful institutions be changed from within, or does revolution always require violence? Supplemental enhancement PDF accompanies the audiobook.

A STORM OF SWORDS is the third volume in the series. The Seven Kingdoms are divided by revolt and blood feud, and winter approaches like an angry beast. Beyond the Northern borders, wildlings leave their villages to gather in the ice and stone wasteland of the Frostfangs. From there, the renegade Brother Mance Rayder will lead them South towards the Wall. The men of the Night’s Watch are ready for the coming of a great cold and the walking corpses that travel with it. But now they face a horde of wildlings twenty-thousand strong – hungry savage people steeped in the dark magic of the haunted wilderness – poised to invade the Kingdom of the North where Robb Stark wears his new-forged crown. But Robb’s defences are ranged against attack from the South, the land of House Stark’s enemies the Lannisters. His sisters are trapped there, dead or likely yet to die, at the whim of the Lannister boy-king Joffrey or his depraved mother Cersei, regent of the Iron Throne. Cersei’s ambition is unfettered while the dwarf Tyrion Lannister fights for his life, a victim of treachery. And on the other side of the ocean, the last of the Targaryens rears the dragons she hatched from her husband’s funeral pyre. Daenerys Stormborn will return to the land of her birth to avenge the murder of her father, the last Dragon King on the Iron Throne.

“I’ve made no secret of what I want… You. It’s always been you.” Wren Embervale, alchemist-turned-assassin, finds solace in only one thing: seeking vengeance for the death of her friends. The wars of the past may be over, but her thirst for revenge is far from quenched. For years, she has been content with her poisons and potions for company, but when an unknown form of alchemy is used to attack a king of the midrealms, Wren’s time in the shadows comes to an end. She’s offered a place at the ancient alchemy academy of Drevenor to find a cure to the dark magic threatening the kingdoms. To win her spot, she must conquer the Gauntlet, a grueling series of deadly trials that could cost her sanity, or her life. More is at play than sabotage from fellow competitors. Magic wielders are being targeted and Wren becomes tangled in a dangerous web of deception and bloodshed that puts the entire realm at risk. But the biggest threat of all might come from the man assigned to protect her—Torj Elderbrock, the silver-haired war hero who has hated her since she assassinated his last charge. Their shared history ignites a simmering tension that threatens to consume them both. Peace is fragile, trust is scarce and enemies lurk around every corner… Will love heal all wounds—or will it be the most lethal poison of all?

Livira has spent hers in a tiny settlement out on the Dust where nightmares stalk and no one goes. The world has never noticed them. That’s about to change. As their stories spiral around each other, across worlds and time, each will unlock vast secrets about the world and themselves.

The Book That Wouldn’t Burn

'A perfectly executed prequel . . . the stakes are higher and the scones are hotter still!' - Nicholas Eames 'Baldree introduces some delightful new characters and reprises others. He draws from a universe of gnomes, elves, skeletons, and other species and provides a perfect voice for each.' - AudioFile First loves. Second-hand books. Epic adventures. Viv’s career with the renowned mercenary company Rackam’s Ravens isn’t going as planned. Wounded during the hunt for a powerful necromancer, she’s packed off against her will to recuperate in the sleepy beach town of Murk – so far from the action that she worries she’ll never be able to return to it. What’s a thwarted soldier of fortune to do? Spending her hours at a struggling bookshop in the company of its foul-mouthed proprietor is the last thing Viv would have predicted. Even though it may be exactly what she needs. Still, adventure isn’t far away. A suspicious traveller in grey, a gnome with a chip on her shoulder, a summer fling and an improbable number of skeletons prove Murk to be more eventful than Viv could have ever expected. Sometimes, right things happen at the wrong time. Sometimes, what we need isn’t what we seek. And sometimes, we find ourselves in the stories we experience together. Set twenty years before the events of Legends & Lattes, Bookshops & Bonedust is a standalone cosy fantasy by BookTok sensation Travis Baldree about the power of good bookshops, great friends and the unexpected choices along the way. Narrated by Travis Baldree.
