The Great Gatsby

starting this week we still remember with sadness the fate of the last days of Lorca, also yesterday I learned that a lot of unscrupulous persons have taken advantage of this misfortune for personal gain by using the resources for those affected to meet their "needs." It's embarrassing. However, there are no words that have not been said already and I encourage all to follow the instructions in the post before this to work. Since leaving this issue aside, as usual, today I present a review of a classic as The Great Gatsby F. Scott Fitzgerald and had not had time to read so far. Also published in Shvoong and always superb site H-Horror. Here you have it and I hope ye all a good week. A hug to everyone.

The Great Gatsby

Author: Francis Scott Fitzgerald

Original Title: The Great Gatsby

Editorial: Alfaguara

192 pages

ISBN: 9788420423401

1 st Edition: 2009 - Madrid

The Great Gatsby is "The Great American Novel", the symbol of a time when it seemed that everything was possible, a time happiness between the horror of the First World War and the barbarity of the Second. First published in 1925, The Great Gatsby symbolizes like no other work of Fitzgerald success and fall with amazing precision reflected in his own life. In 1974 he was made into a film by Jack Clayton with Robert Redford and Mia Farrow as protagonists, and Baz Luhrmann is currently preparing a new adaptation.

I must confess I had never noticed in this novel, nor do I have drawn attention in the least if he had not been recommended in several pages of literature and a great writer and friend not have one of the novels most estimates in their personal library. This is a work that could well be described as timeless for the themes it touches. In addition, it is surprising to appreciate how, with almost a century apart, some aspects of the society of that time are too much like the present, especially in regard to human feelings and their development in society. It is a fact that may be able to come to overwhelm the sensitive reader, because it speaks of a society rotten shiny in appearance and in its interior luxury and flattery, of image and pose, whose players move automatically while their souls are torn apart before falsehood in which they live and sometimes die. It is a novel that, a priori, there appears to contain a great plot, but there is nothing further from reality. Its pages contain a marvelous story of love and personal growth and also has a delightful prose worthy of the honors that are made of it, is perhaps the literary style that makes reading more and closer to the author.

is not a story of mafia or gangster, just a chronic mild early-century society in America that has as its background the adventures of a poor and simple man (this is just knowing key later in retrospect) that reaches the status needed to woo the woman of his dreams. To do this we find that not everything that glitters is gold brushed under the layer of luminosity, opulent, smart, hides the dirt of those who are attached to the lives of others like leeches and then, once embarrassment, rotate the view to the other side and then move on to another host to suck blood. In a very subtle, this classic of literature pertaining to Lost Generation of the Jazz Age , introduces us to the moral and ethics of the time of a class well above average and we makes clear that some things change and others ... other people just change.

Lorca needs your help

Dear bloggers, until now it has returned to work correctly Blogger I could not echo what I have, but once solved, I feel obliged to report that a few days ago, while was sitting at my computer desk, a tremor shook me and made dogs bark more than ever. Minutes later I learned that she had felt had not been imagining things and that it was an earthquake, one of the most terrible event in the region and perhaps throughout the country, in a long time. The result of this earthquake, whose epicenter was located in Lorca, wreaked havoc and killed nearly a dozen of person, almost two hundred and twenty thousand wounded homes which may not be able to continue inhabiting more than twenty percent. I have to say first of all I am not pro-councils, given the degree of corruption that exists and is seen in many, but I think with respect to this cause, was responsible for the error of such a catastrophe to who should We have to support more the merrier. I will not forget that in addition to the earthquake, human intervention, is the workplace that is involved in the construction of these homes, in an area that has to follow rules to prevent and minimize earthquake damage, is deficient visible.

Fear

Author: Jeff Abbott

Original Title: Fear

Editorial: The Factory Ideas

352 pages

ISBN: 9788498006490

1 st Edition: 2011 - Madrid

When Miles psychiatrist offers the possibility to enter an experimental program that would help to alleviate the unbearable memories of the death of his best friend, the witness protected from sees federal open. Andy's constant presence in his mind will not let him live, and would do anything to get rid of that ghost that tortures him day and night. Dennis Groote is an ex FBI turned into a murderer for hire, obsessed with finding a cure for his daughter, who suffers the scourge of the new century: post-traumatic stress syndrome. A pharmaceutical corporation seems to have developed an experimental cure, but the formula disappears mysteriously ...

The Anglo-Saxon literary world, talking about Jeff Abbott is equivalent to talk about new promises and action thrillers. Already many have compared with the level established writers James Patterson, John Grisham and Lee Child. We are facing an author who has been recognized with awards including the Agatha or Macavity and has been nominated three times for Edgar Allan Poe Award granted by the Association Mystery Writers of America . Fear is not your first novel and already there will be two big screen adaptations of his novels Panic (also The Idea Factory ) and Collision (still unreleased in Spain). But leaving aside the merits of this emerging author, include its work on the novel in question.

is not in Jeff Abbott complicated prose and the author seems more focused on the plot in the style, however, this does not mean that his writing is sloppy, but quite the opposite. It has a simple but dynamic writing, with doses of action and intrigue from its first pages. After reading and looking with hindsight, the reader has the feeling of having experienced a tremendous change, have led many plot surprises. A premise of this novel is that nothing is as it seems and with that aura of mistrust pervaded just one as you progress through the plot towards the end.

As for the plot, the story centers around the emergence of a new drug called Frost is able to eliminate some of the memories that favor certain related psychological trauma. The drug, tested illegally by a government enterprise, is robbed and threatened with being sold to the highest bidder. The psychiatrist, Miles Kendrick, FBI protected witness is murdered in her own practice and unleash the unknowns. Thus, this and several patients of Dr. Allison Vance, ended up agreeing on a causal, not casual, to unravel the mystery of his death and find out the whereabouts of the stolen information on to Frost. There are many clues that the author is leaving in its pages for the reader to go tying ropes, but still a challenging task and it is not until the end that reveals the drive shaft of the whole plot. The characters also are quite solid, with well-established intra and had a good time warping for this personality of each one of them. The author makes the reader feel involved, which is excited. In closing I will say that, for fans of thrillers and mystery, this is a good book for entertainment. There is no doubt that Jeff Abbott is opening a gap to be among the greats of the genre with great skill.

THE OFFSPRING - Splinter

For any fan of the once exciting alternative punk band from Orange County, California, who enjoyed "Ignition" and "Smash", which assimilated the change of "Ixnay on the Hombre" and "American "and he did pluck up the courage to listen the album" Conspiracy of one ", this album represents the best reason to move to the ranks of Blink 182, under protest, because he songs as" Splinter "are so noblesse oblige abhorrent to think that these "kids", and quite mature, composed the material here obrante under pressure from its new seal. For now, I do keep the nobility in his pocket, and redirecting my opinion to believe that he actually ran out of talent for good, and seal it could well be just an excuse to throw a work without the slightest redemption. E ste album is a shame. Dangerous bacteria transmitted comfort, announced retirement of shares of MTV, total lack of strength and skill, rotten possum droppings, goat milk stunted, and immediate divorce most basic values \u200b\u200bof this unfortunate and maligned punk rock genre titled .
.
Frankly, I really like ill listen to four guys who averaged forty sing songs about hangovers ("The worst hangover"). Leave that to the newer bands, that at least suffer serious and we could have a little more original stories than you! The same goes for stupid things like "Da Hui", where Dexter Holland, on an incessant repetition of riffs Mughals by Noodles, quoted 25 times the little word 'fuck', thereby earning the legend 'Parental Advisory' on the top and adding a dot in the strategy of posing as lucrative a band still raw and rebellious. The
album featured singles were the hit "Hit That" (a replica intentional "Original prankster") and "(Cannot get my) Head around you", which, however, was a commercial fiasco. Everything else is the fat that is cut to churrasco thinner the worst crisis of shortages. Josh Freese was the drummer who replaced Ron Welty on this album, but I think they should have replaced the entire band, then, whoever they had taken their seats, would not have been able to make an album more disappointing and less attractive to "Splinter." There is no shortage of voices cry that the blame for everything has Freese. staunchest fans usually do those things, and I breakfast with people like that!

C on good reason, the disaster creative and sales of "Splinter", followed five years of record drought, until the next fiasco "Rise and fall, rage and grace." We all thought that it would contain the song "Pass Me By", which was eliminated from "Splinter" because it was considered too heavy for the style of the album, but it looks to be retracted in time. And it's all said ... What is then to highlight in this crap designed to indifference? Is the lid? No, because The Offspring could habérsela transferred to Dream Theatre, who probably would have done something more worthy than this abomination. I think the 'Parental Advisory' which appears on the cover, instead of referring to the stupid lyrics that populate this album, should be alert to the dangers of hearing the same, as this can have terrible and inevitable wishes:
.
• Emptying a Magnum Charger 357 on the neck of Cristian U of Big Brother.
• Tie hair Viviana Canosa the bumper of a 1947 Chevrolet and dragging his body about 600 meters.

Nameless Book

Author: Anonymous

Original title: The Book with No Name

Editorial: Ediciones B

320 pages

ISBN: 9788466644396

1 st Edition: 2010 - Barcelona

Dear reader, for centuries a lost library in the world has hidden a secret. On their shelves is a mysterious book with no name or author. Who reads it ... just dead. Only the pure can see the pages of this book! Now it's your turn. Each page that passes, each chapter you read, you approach the final. Come the dark, and with it great evils. But relax, you're not alone. The amnesic and sexy Jessica, Rodeo boxer Rex, Santino criminal, two monks karateka, a murderer dressed as Elvis Presley, two clueless cops and many offenders will accompany by the violent streets of Santa Mondego. Soon, a solar eclipse will plunge the city into total darkness ... They say that Bourbon Kid is back and looking for a mysterious stone. Get ready for the bloodbath!

I will say that this book is an irreverent mix of the aesthetic of Quentin Tarantino and The Da Vinci Code . But remember: all those who have read The unnamed book e are dead. The only way to know why read it yourself ... luck!

When you are in our day a book signed as Anonymous also bears the title of which concerns us, awakens our curiosity to say the least. However, the synopsis of the book is somewhat ambiguous and vague and may even mislead the reader about what their pages will be found. Begin by saying that they have not recognized any key moment to take me to think that Tarantino has passed into literature, if any director could say this by reading The Book with No Name maybe it could be Robert Rodriguez. Nor has reminded me at all, The Da Vinci Code. Nor have I seen anything that reminds me of Stephen King, who, some say out there, give authorship.

Returning to the book itself, it is noteworthy that although the principle is a bit chaotic and even can become tedious as the plot progresses, the author manages to increase the dramatic tension and intrigue, bringing the point of climax that almost coincides with the end. Still, the characters are shown timidly, perhaps with little depth, something that in this case is not relevant since history almost as agile flying is reading. The environment itself, from the beginning, it is somewhat surreal, his characters are no less, most of them always involved in the mystery of his origin and identity. That is something that is clear from the beginning about this strange place that "does not appear on maps or in the news" quote almost verbatim. should not become attached to any of these quirky characters, as the book, if something looks like Tarantino style (guess that's why I have posted this owl) is a highly criminal trend that does not allow anyone (or almost anyone) out alive from its pages.

If we talk about the plot and try to bring the reader to it, the appearance of the library (I think it refers to the single library that just goes in the book) is rather irrelevant, in fact, even the book is relegated to second or third place. The real protagonist of this story is the Eye of the Moon , a blue gemstone which apparently has some magical attributes and, to some extent, is cursed and hurts everyone who has in his possession. The story begins speaking of a past in which, five years earlier, a ruthless and mysterious murderer nicknamed Kid Bourbon, annihilates all customers a bar, Tapioca . Everyone dies, except for Sanchez, the waiter. Gradually we will unravel aspects of this story will be spinning others and will bring us straight into a city like Santa Mondego, a place for anything but normal. Supernatural populate the streets of the city without even noticing it until late in the novel, I imagine that to keep the surprise effect. What happens is that it is not so. Similarly, any imbalance that may have this first part of the trilogy is forgivable, because reading invites further work on the story and see who's who in the cluedo . Vampires, scarecrow come to life for one hour at midnight, werewolves ... All this appears in a very subtle, while the author gets to see it as something normal, everyday. Us into the lives of dozens of criminals with ease and brings us closer to a pitiless world where the distrust is the currency.

Ultimately, and not to continue gutting the novel, I think for fans of Tarantino's films and Robert Rodriguez, including John Woo, this novel will make you smile in more than one occasion, it has many references film (another detail that suggests that the author may have been involved in this scene before giving the key) and its scenes are agile and very visual. For lovers of literature gender, may disappoint. But overall, I liked it and recommend it. It reads, as I said, quick and easy, also is a good time as it is of such terror that sometimes borders on the humorous.

Nameless Book The Graveyard Book

TRANSUNTUM Dear networks, all of my friends virtual points, this week I have the pleasure to offer a review of a book I have touched a nerve and I've discovered a great author. Elongated in the preface is unnecessary, because all (or so I've tried) you have it then. And I never tire of repeating, in the pages of H-Horror and Shvoong can see this review. Greetings to all and, of course, happy start to the week!

Cemetery Book

Author: Neil Gaiman

Original Title: The Graveyard Book

Editorial: Rock Pocket

256 pages

ISBN: 9788492833177

1 ª Edition: 2011 - Barcelona

'The Graveyard Book is endlessly imaginative, skillfully narrated as Nad same, too smart to fall within a single audience: this book is for everyone. You'll love to die. " Holly Black, co-creadora de Las crónicas de Spiderwick.

Escuchad esta trágica historia: una familia que duerme, un asesino sin compasión y una criatura aventurera, un huérfano que escapa de la muerte. ¿O no? El pequeño escapa del peligro y consigue gatear hasta lo más alto de la colina. Detrás de la valla que se encuentra, existe un lugar oscuro y tranquilo, un cementerio lleno de una vida especial. El niño es recibido allí donde los muertos no duermen y todos los que allí habitan deciden brindarle su protección, porque fuera, tras the fence that separates the city of ghosts, vile murderer waits patiently.

The child without parents, no place in the world, no name, will be welcomed by friendly spirits who make a pact to protect it. Nobody will call him, because it looks like nobody but himself. Nad to be their "parents" Nad to his playmates, children never grow up, Nad for your mentor. And No to the man who seeks to kill him.

Winning novel of the 2009 Newberry Medal for Best Novel American youth.

Neil Gaiman has been my great literary discovery. It is true that he had seen some of their creations through the big screen as Coraline or Stardust, but it was his prose and inventiveness that has truly amazed and captivated me. The argument that opens the synopsis of this Cemetery Book, as it is catchy and one can expect anything from a child murderer escapes from his family and has just wrapped by the spirits of the dead who inhabit the cemetery the hill close to home. All this is just the tip of the iceberg, as the story unfolds much more complex, finding unusual creatures with a mystique that continues to the end. With Gaiman, one realizes that there is still inventive in literature and history can surprise us. This history, and mystery, it contains a heavy dose of intrigue and why not, tenderness. Tenderness, closer to the bizarre and the unusual fussiness, seen, it is something that is hard to explain. What is clear is that the author knows how to bring this story not to relax the tension, trapping the reader from beginning to end. Gaiman explains in the epilogue that is a novel that has been sitting for over twenty years to write, which means that he has thought long and has chewed thoroughly. He also talks about all the help they received from their friends and others understood and that is one of the great wonders of this novel, at any time you notice that part of what the author shows us is the result of a work of documentation, so naturally you into the story of the protagonist that details not only clutter, but greatly enrich the plot.

The baby Owen hosting the live here its first fifteen years of life under the name of Nobody, baptism makes him capita Honorary cemetery. Female Jack to escape, the murderer of his parents and his sister, No one will be the target of a dark force that slowly unravels throughout the novel. Meanwhile, Owen promise to the spirits of their parents (before the forced migration of the place) that will take care of the baby. Also no one will pay, for their protection and education, a strange man who nor alive nor dead which is known as Silas, he will ensure the survival of the baby; the end of the human with human needs. The child will learn to cope from the dead and other beings and to use techniques of ghosts plus the same for a child his age to read and write. Desvelaré No more of this story to anyone who wants to delve into its pages to marvel and daydream as I did. It is certainly a highly recommended novel, full of magic that makes the imagination is fired. A book well worth reading. A great discovery.

Not long ago I went through an eye operation, which has slowed down a bit my blog posts. But do not suffer, or yes, who knows, I'm back and I do a review of a book the less curious. This is one of those in the new Generation Z. Well, not trouble me again, you have also H-Horror and Shvoong , as always. Greetings to everyone.

Z Quijote

Author: Hazael G. González

Editorial: Dolmen Books

342 pages

ISBN: 9788493754488

1 st Edition: 2010

Could there really be a work prior to that first part of the "Ingenious Hidalgo Don Quixote de la Mancha" Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra led the press in 1605? And is it really possible that it is submit to the gentleman as "a man so obsessed by Stories of zombies and zombified whom were in the land where he lived, he decided to become nothing less than tracker not dead, explaining how in those books, "as stated categorically in some literary circles?

And who was that Hazael G. Gonzalez, who signed the text attributed to Cervantes but stating that what the writer was finally issued a modified and very smooth (in which Don Quixote and did not want to be slayer of the undead, but knight) that first text? What is there in the fragmentary stories, considered for many apocryphal, telling encounters between the same Cervantes and the dead walk, thus justifying the early love of the great writer for that genre?

For the first time in English, comes in as full and complete text commonly known as 'Don Quixote Z' as the mysterious Hazael G. Gonzalez left the compound, which adds a story of adventure in Lepanto Cervantes against zombified, written apocryphal, and polished and appropriate the language of our day by Professor Gualberto G. Álvarez, professor at the University of Cerredo Asturian and specialist zombies and other undead species that have existed throughout history.

not long ago began to proliferate in bookstores novels of this type, in which adulterated the original works to include things such contrary or foreign to them as they could be vampires, androids or as in this case, zombies. To me, this is the first contact with this type of literature that many characterize as sacrilege, blasphemy and much worse. However, it also has its audience and wanted to go into this subgenre to see what generated so much controversy. For my part I must say that I was not surprised either for good or for evil, has been eager to finish a novel that once peaked and that cost me to take without some regret, because, although it is well written, with the tone and the language's own original work and time, there something in it that it is and makes it heavy. It's like being re-read the original Quixote except criminals see giant figure of undead zombies or living as they are sometimes called here. Almost all the passages of the original returned to me every time I read a chapter and, although this work is of smaller volume, the author has managed to shorten it, if you know precisely, that does not spread too much. Best of the work, and certainly personal opinion, is the story the beginning: Blood Moon at Lepanto; is this a great story that tells the story of the illustrious zombified Miguel de Cervantes in the famous battle where he was maimed. When the book is presented in this paper, so illusory, the reader might think that what you will find after the tone and dynamics of these first few pages and say illusory because it does not happen to be re-read anything like below. Who starts the reading of Don Quixote Z hopes to find a zombie story with all that that implies and that it reflects that first introductory story, but we found a hypothetical story about undead, that there is not more than the imagination of the unhappy Don Quixote, which ends in dementia follow his loyal squire Sancho Panza. Thus, we find little difference with Cervantes who wrote Don Quixote. Nevertheless, it is a work that, even out of curiosity, may be worth reading, although I know by comments from some colleagues who are best in the genre. No fester discouragement to those who want to venture into this field and more specifically through Z Quixote, as if language like baroque, intricate and old sure Z enjoyed this version of the famous gentleman.

Wrapped in Contemporary Literary Night

Hello again everyone. This week, we're going way to close, I have the pleasure to offer a new review. This time it's the turn of Karen Chance and his novel Wrapped in the Night, Part III of the saga of Cassie Palmer. As usual you can also be found on page H-Horror and Shvoong . With nothing more to say at the moment, I wish you a happy weekend.

Wrapped in the Night

Original title: Embrace the Night

Author : Karen Chance

Editorial: The Ideas Factory (Pandora Pocket Library)

352 pages

ISBN: 9788498006438

Edition: 1st - January 2011

Recently named the most visionary in the world, Cassandra Palmer still has a thorn: a spell keeps sentimentally attached to Mircea, a sexy vampire master, and while it is well, never recovered the reins of his life. The magic that binds them can only be broken with an incantation found in the Codex Merlini, an ancient grimoire.

seems that the Codex has been lost in recent times, and Cassie will have to look at the one place where can still be found: the past. He soon realizes that the book has been lost for a reason. Spells it contains are so dangerous that his selfish desire to get rid of Mircea could endanger the entire world.

The plot of this novel focuses on the pursuit of a counter that is to break the spell that binds to Cassandra with a vampire and can destabilize the romantic relationship and maintaining both their lives, making their relationship in a power struggle that can lead to madness. For this task, our hero must travel to different points in time and space to recover the codex that contains it. He will be joined some friends Pritkin somewhat unique as an incubus escaped from Hell (although sometimes it is said that he was expelled), a ghost that feeds on vital energy, the vampire himself is tied, and a host of curious characters .

Perhaps the biggest mistake I made to delve into the pages of this novel was to neglect the reading of his two predecessors because, although you can easily follow the storyline, there are certain aspects and details of some characters and their different histories that have confused me and I had to assume or guess most of the time where the shots were. So, I can say that the first pages have been a little to tone with the author and her own world recreated here. As I said, this is the third in a series, more specifically, which corresponds to Cassandra Palmer, a young clairvoyant who was just named Pythia (that should be in the earlier novel) and whose power is beginning to rival that of other powerful creatures. It is a curious mix of issues that come together in this Wrapped in the Night , as can be found on the same page with Incubus devils, vampires, wizards, goblins and even pterodactyls and gods of ancient Greece.

As far as I could ascertain, Karen Chance is a highly acclaimed author in other countries and has been wrongly compared Charlaine Harris, author of the saga of True Blood . I think these authors have a totally different style and, although Harris argues for a more rough plot, Chance makes a softer, more suitable for the romance genre in which box is the author and his books.

reading is not suitable for everyone. The fantasy is brought to the limit and the amalgamation of cultures and myths can not be appreciated by all the world and even exceeded. But it is certainly an interesting adventure, yet be a both sweetened. As a final note to anyone who is interested in going into the series, I will say that I recommend to start at the beginning The Breath of Darkness , origin and raw adventure of Cassie Palmer. Well, I also recommend reading a bigger pocket than those who have difficulty with small print, it can be quite an ordeal.

1 st Edition in this editorial: 2003

Fahrenheit 451 offers the story of a dark and horrific future. Montag, the protagonist, is in a strange fire brigade whose mission, ironically, is not to put out fires but to burn books to provoke. Because the country is strictly forbidden to read Montag. Because reading requires thinking, and the country is forbidden to think Montag. Because it is read back from being naively happy, and the country Montag have to be happy in the force ... The most famous novel by Ray Bradbury, a master of science fiction.

Bradbury Talking equivalent today to talk about a model of the current fiction. Besides this work which dates in its first edition in 1953, others have earned a good reputation within the genre as The Martian Chronicles ( 1950) or The Illustrated Man (1951). The author of Illinois, born in 1920, this novel offers a poignant prose in the future, imagined more than half a century, which is overwhelming. To all those who love literature and devoured many books as you can, imagine a society like that shows us Fahrenheit 451 is indeed frightening. A society where the possession of books is severely punished, a planet where the best place we can occupy these is in incinerators ( ashes of ashes, they say in some part of the work), some people constantly at war and for to a forced sale. Are all elements that make this short novel, with Bradbury's prose, an attractive cocktail.

The story is centered on the awakening of Montag, a fireman who is engaged to burn the books and the hopes of those who love. Guy Montag will, through circumstantial elements that get in his way, he will recover consciousness about the world we live and try to escape the clutches of the prevailing society.

is incredible the skill with which the author develops the characters and their personalities in history. The degradation of some and the exaltation of others, their fears, their thoughts, their inconsistencies ... everything bears witness to the society that seeks to teach and does so in a way that scares them. Nor does it neglect the visionary aspect of Bradbury, as a technology shows us that in his time was only dream and today it is possible and real: the walls that make for great TV and that show a continuous contact with other people in the distance, are a good example.

I have also noted that the background of the book leaves a bitter aftertaste, but hopeful. Bitter because hatred and fear that society has represented books is something that could apply to some strata of society today, or perhaps some individuals. Unfortunately, some reactions of this "fiction" well you can see or live in our flesh. Surely this is a novel critical of the system, with its people and their patterns of action face of adversity, against what is forbidden. Bradbury reading can be an exasperating experience but no doubt it's worth, a lot. A highly recommended reading. By the way, for those who desconozcáis, the novel opens its pages with a brief explanation of why it is called so is that Fahrenheit 451 refers to the temperature at which the role of inflammation and burning books.

Dear bloggers, today I wanted to devote a special entry to a place where one day, like the legendary Café Gijón, gathered a large group of young writers eager to overshoot. That place is none other than the web TusRelatos.com and although it is no longer what it was, still promoting the illusion of those who dream of being a writer. There, as I said, I met great writers q ue eventually became great friends. I speak of authors such as Javier Pellicer Moscardo, Vilas Couselo Darius (aka Xulio Eshton), Claudia Burk, Vice Vhon Khamy, Mandrake, David Gomez Hidalgo (aka Bolzano), Rafael Rubio, Félix Gómez and well, needless to say some more but are many. Well, this post is not for nothing but to speak of a great discovery is that a few days ago, surfing the web, I came across a monograph within the for or new TusRelatos.com which gives us quite accurately the history of this site and the people who have moved there from 1999 to today. As part of those who lived this story in one of its moments, has been a delight to read this. I imagine that for those who also passed through the page, will recall a great satisfaction to those who crossed his path in this place for a time to nurture the dreams of many of us and allowed us to show our humble writings to the world, our peers. I do not dwell more, click on the logo below to directly access the monograph. A big hug.

Night Watch

Original title: Nochnoy dozor (Night Watch)
Author: Sergey Lukyanenko
Editorial: DeBolsillo
512 pages
ISBN: 9788499082806
1 st edition in this editorial: 2010

The eternal struggle between Good and Evil is about to unfold in Moscow today.

walk the streets of Moscow, indistinguishable from the rest of the population, and they call themselves Others. They are creatures with special powers who have lost their humanity and can penetrate into the Twilight, a shadowy world parallel to ours. Each Other has had to swear allegiance either to the Light or the Darkness.

Both sides coexist in an uneasy truce since, long ago, to prevent chaos and annihilation, signed an agreement and created two patrols (the Night Watch and Day Guard) to be closely monitored. His goal is not to destroy, but to maintain the precarious balance between good and evil, however, an ancient prophecy says that one day will be a powerful Other will be tempted by one of the sides and tip the balance. That day has arrived ... Night Watch is a fantasy thriller stomping beat and dazzling originality and intelligence, one of those books that transcends the boundaries of their gender. Set in the complex and contradictory Russia today, this novel (a book of worship guaranteed by the international success) reveals a world where an evil act must be offset by a benevolent action, where beings are torn between their lost humanity and its new powers, and explore the universal themes freedom and responsibility, purpose and means, the eternal struggle between Good and Evil, and the blurred line that separates them.

A priori, it would seem that this is one of those stories of struggle conventional sides of Light against Darkness and, while not an original idea in itself, the treatment we Kazakhstan gives this writer who lives in Russia does not stop be attractive in its approach. We start with the idea of \u200b\u200ba confrontation set controlled by a pact signed millennia ago by the heads of the two sides. In that agreement, emerged two guards, the Guard Day, to preserve the day of the influence of light , and Night Watch, which does the same with the Dark . We can say that, despite this, the city is not free of insurgents and rebels of the system, or even ignorant to know their nature and the covenant to which they are subjected Other the planet, because yes, Other are human (or at least someday were), but not all who are or are everyone, and one of the functions of these officers is to find others like them to capture them and bow their aspirations to their own side facing the final fight mention his prophecies. To this is added the interrelationship of these gifted supernatural available to go into a sort of dimension to the Twilight called that, in turn, seems to possess its own life and who thrives on deep into it. Twilight This has several levels of depth, depending on the category of Light or tenebrous are more or less accessible. These are the basic precepts of the whole plot, which we must add the intention of the senior management of each party seeking to tip the balance to his side and subtle scheming plans whose purpose is subject to a large number of matches and events scheduled potential of each of the characters in the novel. None of them is on this story so trivial, everyone has their reason for being. Are actors in a large network whose directors manipulated at will and without ceremony. Not obvious that, regardless of the inclination of the Other to make Good or Bad , there are different creatures who inhabit this particular universe among which we find: Wizards, Vampires or therianthropic.

This is the premise on which moves the story of Anton Gorodetsky, a tertiary Another member of the Night Watch which is engaged in a plot that goes far beyond that beyond one of simple missions that are used to. This is where you begin to weave a complex plan that will lead us in the first person to speculate on the magical world around the streets of this modern Moscow.

Some say, as I warned before, that there is nonstandard in this Trilogy Guard and talk about books as American Gods by Neil Gaiman or RPGs White Wolf as a reference to gender and as a history of Sergei literature, sources that may have been drinking. However, I encourage everyone to start reading the trilogy (now that was just reprinted in the hands of the Editorial DeBolsillo ), because despite being a prose somewhat harsh and cold, like a shot of vodka capella, is not at all heavy, but quite the opposite, and that's perfectly suited to the climate of melancholy that seeps into the novel and its characters, trapped in a world of doubters elected but constantly and can not and exit. If we want an incentive to encourage us to read Night Watch , note that the author has received dozens of awards for his works and in 2003 was named best European writer in the Eurocontrol of Turku, Finland. This trilogy also was a bestseller in Russia, reaching the category of Best Sellers a million copies sold and translations of it more than ten languages. Also, for the lazy, the first two parts of the trilogy were filmed with some dignity but, as usual, at least the first book, casts a shadow on adaptation. But they are there if you want to see films, both directed by Timur Bekmambetov in 2004 and 2006 respectively. As I say, do not expect much, deserves much more worthwhile to read the books, but as experience and ideas are not bad.

For lovers of the kind of fantasy that goes into our reality and mixed with it, this is a novel worth reading.
