Call of Madness
Fantasy von Julie Dean Smith
Magic has been forbidden in Caithe for 200 years and those born with magic—the Lorngeld—are considered the devil’s children. The Lorngeld are ruthlessly executed by the Caithan Church before they can be corrupted by mind-plague—the volatile madness that afflicts untrained wizards. Only King Kelwyn, artificially gifted with borrowed magic, is exempt from punishment. His daughter may not be so lucky.
Julie Dean Smith geb. 1960, hat nur vier Fantasyromane in den 90er Jahren verfasst, die aber damals erfolgreich waren und heute als eBooks wieder erhältlich sind. „The book in my opinion is quite interesting, keeping your interest going to the last line.“ (Leser) (7 Rezensionen / 4,2 Sterne), 311 Seiten – noch gratis?

Dead at Daybreak
Thriller von Deon Meyer
An antiques dealer is burned with a blow torch, then killed, execution-style – a single shot to the back of the head with an M16. The contents of the safe are missing and the only clues are a scrap of blank paper and the unusual weapon used, the choice of mercenaries, not burglars. Now ex-cop Zatopek ‚Zed‘ van Heerden has fourteen days in which to fill in the blanks in this dead man’s past – a past which only seems to begin in 1983.
