Geoff
Geoff is book smart. Ask him to name a river in Zimbabwe, he would ask if you had the Zambezi or the Limpopo in mind. What's his take on the theory of dark matter? The universe is filled with it, he'll reply, just like the confusion in people's minds. What does he know about women? Everything there is to know, particularly how their darker nature works. Can you recover from failure, Geoff? Unlikely, since you'll never forget that failure; and since that failure is always with you, you will always be a failure. Being borderline genius, however, does not translate to success. Geoff is a practiced underachiever, and by choice a failure at marriage and his social life. His newfound career is a j...
Journal of Allen Brock
The Journal of Allen Brock weaves a narrative through the twists of an older and much different Earth. Negative energy has imposed physical challenges through Rift Space. This phenomenon wreaks havoc on electrical equipment and on weaponry. Wars rage; heroes rise and fall, hence the weave of the tapestry. The focus of Brock's narrative is Junipero Heights, a contested ground in the Highland. Highland, tucked in the eastern part of the Northern continent, is a rugged area, not easily assailed. For decades it has prevailed against the Hexas, Junipero's unrelenting enemy in the west who view themselves intellectually and culturally superior to the Native-born. In the backdrop stands Brock, the ...

Vincent Garbo
Si tu croisais Vincent Garbo dans la rue, tu verrais d'abord un blond d'une vingtaine d'années et tu le trouverais beau. Mais s'il te regardait de ses yeux noirs, tu ressentirais sûrement un malaise d'ailleurs justifié : ce gars-là n'est pas loin de dégainer un flingue et de tirer dans le tas. On en voit pas mal de par le monde, ces temps-ci, qui font ça, qui dégainent et qui tirent, sans scrupules, et sans aucun mobile apparent. Si tu veux mon avis, on en verra d'autres. Toi, dans ce tas qui environne Vincent Garbo, estime-toi plutôt chanceux : il n'a d'armes que des mots.
Endurance
Ce récit en deux parties décrit une rencontre fortuite entre deux hommes dans un bar gay. L'un a vingt-cinq ans, l'autre cinquante. Malgré leur différence d'âge, chacun s'adapte à la mentalité de l'autre. Contre toute attente, ce qui n'avait été qu'une entrevue sans lendemain se transforme en amitié au fil du temps ; l'un et l'autre racontent comment il la vit. Le plus jeune rencontrera un garçon de son âge qui deviendra son petit ami et le quinquagénaire, pendant un séjour en Chine, croisera la route d'un étudiant qui est plongé dans le même genre de conflit intérieur que lui au même âge. Ce qui le renverra à ses démons et au problème du refus. Cette nouvelle rencontre le met en face d'un autre blocage, celui que lui oppose sa conscience morale qui lui interdit d'aller au bout de ses désirs, avec comme conséquence une incidence négative sur son travail d'écrivain. Le sujet principal du livre est donc de voir comment les « héros » de cette histoire arrivent à supporter tout ça, d'où son titre : Endurance. L'action se déroule à Aix-en-Provence, dans le Luberon, à Briançon, à Marseille puis en Chine.
Il re mago
Quentin Coldwater dovrebbe essere entusiasta. Brooklyn e la sua infanzia infelice sono un ricordo, è approdato alla scuola di magia di Brakebills, e lì ha scoperto che Fillory – il mondo incantato dei libri che divorava da bambino – esiste davvero; e adesso, lui e i suoi amici ne sono i re e le regine. Trascorrono le loro giornate immersi in un pae-saggio da fiaba fatto di alberi-orologio e animali parlanti, eppure Quentin è sempre più irrequieto. Questa nuova vita facile e spensierata non gli basta: lui desidera, con tutte le sue forze, un'avventura. E poi, ultimamente, a Fillory stanno succedendo cose strane e inquietanti… Così, insieme alla regina Julia, Quentin fa riparare una...
