Maria José
La biografia di Maria José, l'ultima regina d'Italia, di cui l'Autore ha raccolto i ricordi dal vivo, arricchiti da documenti e testimonianze inediti.

Shadows Have Offended
"The USS Enterprise has been granted the simple but unavoidable honor of ferrying key guests to Betazed for a cultural ceremony.
