Mas alla de los Santos... la historia comienza aqui.. Cuando Santa Esmeralda abre el libro titulado: "BEYOND THE SAINTS" para leerlo a un pequeno oyente, el mundo comienza a sufrir cambios repentinos. Pandemias, desastres naturales, plagas y toda una incertidumbre politica se desata en el mundo en aras de una guerra mundial. Sin imaginar los sucesos que ocurren en el mundo, Santa Esmeralda narra una historia acerca de seis valientes guerreros que pelearan por salvar al mundo, son conocidos como Santos y cada uno posee poderes supernaturales. En el transcurso de su lectura, la dama es interrumpida por un ser que la advierte de lo que ha sucedido por abrir aquel libro y que los Santos de los que ella narra en su historia son reales y que vienen en camino con una premicia; tomar la vida de Santa Esmeralda y con ello evitar el fin del mundo.

Strangers Within

A comprehensive study of the New Christian elite of Jewish origin—prominent traders, merchants, bankers and men of letters—between the fifteenth and eighteenth centuries In Strangers Within, Francisco Bethencourt provides the first comprehensive history of New Christians, the descendants of Jews forced to convert to Catholicism in late medieval Spain and Portugal.

Lula is among the greatest political figures in Brazilian history. The only president in the country with a working-class background, combined with a party that was profoundly original in its roots, he exercised charismatic power and influence in a more lasting way than any other public figure in the republican period. Since 2011, Fernando Morais, one of Brazil's leading writers, has gained direct, frank and frequent access to Lula. To these dozens of hours of testimonies, he has added a reporter's flair and captivating prose to compose a biography that paints a picture in all its grandeur and complexity. In a narrative that makes use of flashforwards and flashbacks to maintain an electrifying pace, Morais goes from Lula's childhood to the annulment of his convictions, in 2021 - passing through the new unionism, the ABC strikes, the foundation of the PT and the first election campaign.
