I am an old sorcerer who has lived too long and was seduced by darkness for a long time. I discovered the light in the words. Some time ago, I found a text that made me reflect and has inspired this manuscript. It started like this: My name is Leirbag. I have fought alongside great wizards, warriors and elves, but no one tells a story about me. I suppose it's because my race is considered savages, murderers, deformed and a long list of unpleasant adjectives. But I am also part of the great stories that became legendary. If you haven't already guessed who I am, I'll tell you that I'm a despicable orc with a desire for revenge. Dagburz, dark land is an epic fantasy novel that tells the battles from the perspective of the most dastardly being of all. Using a direct narrative with a unique style, the author aims to give the story a different approach to the adventure classics, but respecting its essence.

Roving vigilantes, fear-mongering politicians, hysterical pundits, and the looming shadow of a seven hundred-mile-long fence: the US–Mexican border is one of the most complex and dynamic areas on the planet today. Hyperborder provides the most nuanced portrait yet of this dynamic region. Author Fernando Romero presents a multidisciplinary perspective informed by interviews with numerous academics, researchers, and organizations. Provocatively designed in the style of other kinetic large-scale studies like Rem Koolhaas's Content and Bruce Mau’s Massive Change, Hyperborder is an exhaustively researched report from the front lines of the border debate.
