A Che Punto Siamo? OTTOBRE

Create your own banner at mybannermaker.com!

AGGIORNAMENTO (12/10/2011): Oggi ho deciso di cambiare titolo e banner alla rubrica, questo mi sembra più adatto.
***********************************

Oggi voglio aprire una nuova rubrica, presa (anche se leggermente modificata) dal blog Leggere Fantastico. Questa avrà cadenza mensile e tratterà dei volumi delle serie che usciranno quel mese, in America, degli/lle autori/rici già presenti in Italia. Ovviamente ci sarà spazio sia per le saghe inedite (e non) da noi che per i romanzi singoli.
Cominciamo con Ottobre...

In Destined, the forces of Light and Dark collide as their epic struggle focuses on Tulsa's House of Night. Zoey is home where she belongs, safe with her Guardian Warrior, Stark, by her side and preparing to face off against Neferet. Kalona has released his hold on Rephaim, and, through Nyx's gift of a human form, he and Stevie Rae are finally able to be together if Rephaim can truly walk the path of the Goddess and stay free of his father's shadow.
But is Zoey really safe? Does she truly know those who are closest to her? And will love win when it is tested by the very soul of Darkness? Find out what s destined in the next thrilling chapter of the House of Night series.

So when Tory learns of an old Charleston legend about a famous she-pirate, Anne Bonney, whose fortune was never found, she can't believe her luck - buried treasure is exactly what she needs to save the Institute on Loggerhead!

Dexter Morgan is not your average serial killer. He enjoys his day job as a blood spatter analyst for the Miami Police Department . . . but he lives for his nighttime hobby of hunting other killers. Dexter is therefore not pleased to discover that someone is shadowing him, observ­ing him, and copying his methods. Dexter is not one to tol­erate displeasure . . . in fact, he has a knack for extricating himself from trouble in his own pleasurable way.
Like the previous five best-selling novels in the Dexter series, Double Dexter showcases the witty, macabre origi­nality that has propelled Jeff Lindsay to international suc­cess. Double Dexter is raucously entertaining . . . full of smart suspense and dark laughs.
