The Rock - Rites of Betrayal (Fallen Earth Book 7)
Michael R. Stark - 2016
The nights are dark, the days a stumbling venture from one horror to the next. In one place, William Hill stands in the center of a town where the scattered remains of the dead lie next to the road like litter tossed from passing cars, where the search for the living fails to turn up even one soul. Infected by a parasite destined to steal his mind, hunted by the Chosen, and dogged by a beautiful woman who claims to be an elf, he sometimes wonders if life can get any stranger. Then Daniel offers a glimpse of the coming world, a place where cavorting beasts feast upon the dead, where dragons haunt nearby forests, where the hordes crawl from the ground by the millions and sweep across the earth. The elf says she needs his blood to repair the rift between worlds, to finally put an end to the madness. He doesn't mind donating a little to the cause, but the more he hears, the more he doubts her intentions and the more the ceremony sounds like a full-scale sacrifice. In the end, William discovers that he can count on nothing, not even his sanity.
Jaime Sabines en Bellas Artes
Jaime Sabines - 1996
Read by their original authors, or by other famous writers when that has been impossiblem the collection takes pride in using only unabridged versions of the original literary texts that can be heard in the recording. Probably the greatest virtue of the Entre Voces audio book collection is that it allows the listener to evoke the oral tradition that is intrinsic to the origins of every literary work. This collection also permits the listening of poetry as it was meant to be readm as it finds its own alter ego in the spoken voice. The Entre Voces collection offers poetry, narrative fiction and theatre by authors of such importance to the evolution of Hispanic literature as Filix Lope de Vega, Sor Juana Inis de la Cruz, Rubin Darmo, Pablo Neruda, Juan Rulfo, Carlos Fuentes, Jaime Sabines, Rosario Castellanos, Augusto Monterroso, Josi Emilio Pacheco, and many others.
