The Obelisk Gate von Jemisin N. K.

Die Neuübersetzung von Gabriel García Márquez' wichtigstem Roman »Hundert Jahre Einsamkeit« - erstmals im Taschenbuch. Gabriel García Márquez' bedeutendster Roman und einer der schönsten der Weltliteratur: Bildhaft und anekdotenreich erzählt der Literaturnobelpreisträger García Márquez die hundertjährige Familiengeschichte der Buendías - eine Geschichte von Siegen und Niederlagen, hochmütigem Stolz und blinder Zerstörungswut, unbändiger Vitalität und ihrem endgültigem Untergang. Die ganze Tragödie Lateinamerikas spiegelt sich in der phantastischen Welt von Macondo. Die Neuübersetzung von Dagmar Ploetz lässt den stilistischen Reichtum des Originals aufleuchten und bietet eine wunderbare Gelegenheit, diesen Jahrhundertroman neu zu entdecken. »Ein Klassiker in bestechender Neuübersetzung.« NDR KulturTrotz der eigentlich tragischen Umstände [...] bringt Gabriel García Márquez eine gewisse Leichtigkeit und Humor in seine Familiensaga hinein.

Winner of the Hugo Award for Best Novel, shortlisted for the Nebula, Locus, World Fantasy, Kitschie and Audie awards, this is the stunning first instalment in a fantasy trilogy set in a world of volcanoes and earthquakes, where the power to control the earth is the most dangerous of all. 'Intricate and extraordinary' New York TimesHeartbreaking, wholly unexpected, and technically virtuosic, THE FIFTH SEASON is a tour-de-force. I felt every shock--and the book is packed with them--in my marrow. It's no exaggeration to say that Jemisin expands the range of what great fantasy can be

The incredible conclusion to the record-breaking triple Hugo award-winning trilogy that began with the The Fifth Season

The Moon will soon return. Whether this heralds the destruction of humankind or something worse will depend on two women.
Essun has inherited the phenomenal power of Alabaster Tenring. With it, she hopes to find her daughter Nassun and forge a world in which every outcast child can grow up safe.
For Nassun, her mother's mastery of the Obelisk Gate comes too late. She has seen the evil of the world, and accepted what her mother will not admit: that sometimes what is corrupt cannot be cleansed, only destroyed.
