The Hierarchy still call me Vis Telimus. Still hail me as Catenicus. They still, as one, believe they know who I am. But with all that has happened—with what I fear is coming—I am not sure it matters anymore. I am no longer one. I won the Iudicium and lost everything—and now, impossibly, the ancient device beyond the Labyrinth has replicated me across three separate worlds. A different version of myself in each of Obiteum, Luceum, and Res. Three different bodies, three different lives.

Twenty-year-old Violet Sorrengail was supposed to enter the Scribe Quadrant, living a quiet life among books and history. Now, the commanding general—also known as her tough-as-talons mother—has ordered Violet to join the hundreds of candidates striving to become the elite of Navarre: dragon riders. But when you’re smaller than everyone else and your body is brittle, death is only a heartbeat away...because dragons don’t bond to “fragile” humans. They incinerate them. With fewer dragons willing to bond than cadets, most would kill Violet to better their own chances of success.

Nel 1898 Adriano Salani editore pubblica questo volume. Ecco le sue parole: "I romanzi dei cavalieri della Tavola Rotonda, il cui primo autore vogliono alcuni eruditi fosse Viero di Guascogna del sangue dei carolingi, ed altri Lucio del Guasto, furono in ogni tempo la delizia di tutte le Corti e delle gentili brigate.

Baviera 1999 d.C. Mille anni sono trascorsi da quando il demoniaco popolo vaivar è apparso in Europa, muovendo dalle lande desolate oltre il Volga per reclamare il possesso delle terre abitate dagli umani e cambiare la Storia per sempre. Da allora una guerra infinita strazia il continente ormai condannato a un eterno medioevo, in cui i regni nati dalle ceneri dell'antico Sacro Impero sopravvivono a fatica tra alleanze precarie, rovesciamenti di fronte ed epidemie. I vaivar avanzano con armate di creature innaturali e spaventose.

After nearly eighteen months at Basgiath War College, Violet Sorrengail knows there's no more time for lessons. No more time for uncertainty. Because the battle has truly begun, and with enemies closing in from outside their walls and within their ranks, it’s impossible to know who to trust. Now Violet must journey beyond the failing Aretian wards to seek allies from unfamiliar lands to stand with Navarre. The trip will test every bit of her wit, luck, and strength, but she will do anything to save what she loves—her dragons, her family, her home, and him.

In the wake of the Kejari, everything Oraya once thought to be true has been destroyed. A prisoner in her own kingdom, grieving the only family she ever had, and reeling from a gutting betrayal, she no longer even knows the truth of her own blood. She’s left only with one certainty: she cannot trust anyone, least of all Raihn. The House of Night, too, is surrounded by enemies. Raihn’s own nobles are none too eager to accept a Turned king, especially one who was once a slave. And the House of Blood digs its claws into the kingdom, threatening to tear it apart from the inside.

A man. His ex-girlfriend's cat. A sadistic game show unlike anything in the universe: a dungeon crawl where survival depends on killing your prey in the most entertaining way possible. In a flash, every human-erected construction on Earth - from Buckingham Palace to the tiniest of sheds - collapses in a heap, sinking into the ground. The buildings and all the people inside have all been atomized and transformed into the dungeon: an 18-level labyrinth filled with traps, monsters, and loot.

Jason arrives at a kingdom in peril and he's surprised to discover that it's not his job to save it. With the authorities fulfilling their responsibilities (for once), he looks forward to some quiet time to rest and recuperate. The locals might not find ceaseless monster onslaughts and an interdimensional invasion relaxing, but Jason has had a rough few years. He's doing his best to let go of his anger. While his team is caught up in duty, Jason has no shortage of people looking to interfere with his rest. Enemies—old and new—are circling, and even would-be allies are trouble.

A capo della banda di fratelli dalle dita leste, noti come Bastardi Galantuomini, Locke diventa presto celebre, e si fa beffe persino del più temuto re della malavita.

With new places to visit and new people to meet, the remnants of recent events have scarred the land and left lingering dangers behind. It's a busy time for adventurers willing and able to fight with monsters.

Il mondo, per Rossella Dragna, ha sempre avuto i confini della minuscola isola dove vive insieme alla sorella Tella e al potente, crudele padre. Se ha sopportato questi anni di forzato esilio è stato grazie al sogno di partecipare a Caraval, uno spettacolo itinerante misterioso quanto leggendario in cui il pubblico partecipa attivamente; purtroppo, l’imminente, combinato matrimonio a cui il padre la sta costringendo significa la rinuncia anche a quella possibilità di fuga.

There is a world. One of endless night, surrounded by an even deeper darkness. Filled with nightmares come to life, twisted shapes that slink to windows and ease open doors, sliding across floors to look down on helpless faces. There is another world. A bright world, so bright it burns. Filled with stacked stones that call forth miracles, raised by callused hands that tremble in their work, drained with each stone lifted, settled, lifted again.
