Siamis said, “Your young friend Liere is not going to enjoy the trap she’s walking into, I fear. But you figured that out, did you not? Why didn’t she listen to you?”
“To snap her fingers under your nose,” Senrid retorted.
“Irresistible.” Siamis smiled gently. “But it’s going to cost.”
Fifteen-year-old Senrid is newly king of the difficult warrior kingdom Marloven Hess . . . just in time to lose it, and find himself running for his life. When Senrid is captured he overhears a secret—one he can use against the enemy, a charismatic, handsome man named Siamis who can read minds, and who enchants people just by talking to them.
Liere has always known she was special, which just increased her loneliness and sense of isolation. She can hear others’ thoughts, and she senses the real emotions below the façade. When a golden-haired man named Siamis comes to her village and enchants the entire town around her, she finds herself on the run.
Liere and Senrid couldn’t be more different, but their goal is the same, to locate the powerful magic that will unravel Siamis’s world enchantment.
Chased by powerful enemies, Liere and Senrid are tested to the max as they form an alliance of kids to aid them, and gain magical support from surprising sources.
Neither ever expected to discover something even more powerful than magic: friendship. First written when Sherwood Smith was fifteen, this is the story of how Senrid and Liere first met.
Written when Sherwood Smith was a teenager herself, Fleeing Peace is the first in the series that ties together all the kids who became the Young Allies against the coming Norsunder War. Views: 1 088
«La última vez que vi a Miguel Desvern o Deverne fue también la última que lo vio su mujer, Luisa, lo cual no dejó de ser extraño y quizá injusto, ya que ella era eso, su mujer, y yo era en cambio una desconocida…»
Así comienza Los enamoramientos, la nueva novela de Javier Marías, consagrado como uno de los mejores novelistas contemporáneos. María Dolz, la narradora y protagonista, sólo supo su nombre «cuando apareció su foto en el periódico, apuñalado y medio descamisado y a punto de convertirse en un muerto: lo último de lo que se debió de dar cuenta fue de que lo acuchillaban por confusión y sin causa».
Con una prosa profunda y cautivadora, esta novela reflexiona sobre el estado de enamoramiento, considerado casi universalmente como algo positivo e incluso redentor a veces, tanto que parece justificar casi todas las cosas: las acciones nobles y desinteresadas, pero también los mayores desmanes y ruindades.
Los enamoramientos es también un libro sobre la impunidad y sobre la horrible fuerza de los hechos; sobre la inconveniencia de que los muertos pudieran volver, por mucho que se los haya llorado y que en apariencia nada se deseara tanto como su regreso, o al menos que siguieran vivos; también sobre la imposibilidad de saber nunca la verdad cabalmente, ni siquiera la de nuestro pensamiento, oscilante y variable siempre.
