"Frankenstein" gets a fresh take in this reimagining of the gothic classic, taking the familiar characters and turning them on their heads in a historical thriller packed with weird science, political suspense, and steamy romance.

Cadaver & Queen

King of Dreams (Sandman) (Sandman)

The Sandman

Agatha DeLacey’s family isn’t rich or titled, so studying nursing at Ingold’s East End hospital in London is a rare opportunity for her. Despite the school’s focus on the innovative Bio-Mechanical program, Aggie cares more about the desperately poor human patients who flood the hospital, even if that means providing unauthorized treatment after-hours…and trusting a charming, endlessly resourceful thief. But the Artful Dodger is barely a step ahead of his underworld rivals, the menacing Bill Sykes and mercurial Oliver Twist, and Aggie’s association with him soon leads her into danger. When a brutal attack leaves her blind, she and the Dodger find themselves at the mercy of an experimental Bio-Mech surgery. Though the procedure restores Aggie’s sight, her new eyes come at an unnerving cost, and the changes in Dodger are even more alarming—instead of seeing Aggie as the girl he fancies, he now views her as a potential threat. As war between England and Germany brews on the horizon and a sinister medical conspiracy threatens to shatter the uneasy peace in Europe, Aggie and the Dodger must find a way to work together so they can protect their friends and expose the truth…even if it means risking their own survival.

Un romanzo dark e sensuale, un fantasy intrigante dalle suggestive atmosfere vittoriane. Lizzie Lavenza è la prima e unica studentessa a essere stata accettata alla prestigiosa Facoltà di Medicina di Ingold, nello Yorkshire. In più, è americana e in Inghilterra non ha legami né appoggi facoltosi. Perciò, all’inizio dell’anno accademico, capisce subito che farsi accettare da compagni e professori, che non perdono occasione per prendersi gioco di lei, sarà cosa ardua. Ma Lizzie è caparbia, e disposta a tutto pur di dimostrare quanto vale. Ingold è un centro di eccellenza negli studi sulla biomeccanica, il cui obiettivo è riportare in vita con l’elettricità i cadaveri di giovani uomini per trasformarli in automi obbedienti e senza paura da spedire in guerra. Così, quando Lizzie s’imbatte in un biomeccanico difettoso, si offre di ripararlo per mettersi in luce. Ma questo biomeccanico sembra aver conservato ricordi, sentimenti... e una coscienza. Lizzie scopre che si tratta di Victor Frankenstein, brillante studente di Ingold deceduto in circostanze misteriose, e ne è pericolosamente attratta. Decisa ad aiutarlo a scoprire cosa gli è accaduto, Lizzie si ritrova invischiata in una rete di segreti, intrighi e oscuri esperimenti che paiono implicare la regina Vittoria.

Corpse and Crown

After going for more than a year without a date -- a record in New York City -- Marlowe Riddle has finally met a broodingly sexy, sharply intelligent man who is clearly interested in making more than polite conversation. The only problem: Joseph Kain is an NYPD detective clearly under the mistaken impression that Marlowe is a call girl. But while Marlowe does take money for spending time with strangers in her expensive Upper West Side apartment, she's a psychologist -- not Manhattan's answer to the Mayflower Madam! A fact she has no intention of telling Joe ... at least not until she finishes her research project on the "Behavioral Effects of Disguising Identity." But Marlowe's not the only one trying to secretively gain information ... and it's becoming increasingly unclear who is seducing whom. Because sometimes the only way to learn what a man really wants ... is to get him on the couch.

A Salute to 50 Magnificent Women

Femme Magnifique

No livro Clint Barton, mais conhecido como Gavião Arqueiro, sempre atuou como agente independente da S.H.I.E.L.D., a agência de espionagem internacional. Hoje, contudo, ele está mais interessado na estonteante ruiva que invade o aeroporta-aviões – e na tarefa de capturá-la. A ruiva revela-se como a Viúva Negra, a notável espiã russa. O Gavião recebe ordens claras: levá-la para a Balsa, a prisão de segurança máxima para supervilões. E não deixá-la sair. Mas ao chegarem à prisão, deparam-se com luzes apagadas e celas escancaradas. Alguém planejou uma fuga em massa, numa escala que o mundo nunca viu. Agora, Gavião Arqueiro e Viúva Negra estão confinados entre dezenas de cativos furiosos, ao lado de Jessica Drew, ex-Mulher-Aranha, e Luke Cage, indestrutível herói de aluguel. Quando Capitão América e Homem de Ferro chegam ao local, deparam-se com um dilema: deveriam reunir novamente os Vingadores, a equipe de heróis que se desfez meses atrás? E, se assim for, quem serão os membros? Um agente da S.H.I.E.L.D. com um passado criminoso? Uma heroína que perdeu seus poderes? Uma superespiã russa com sangue em suas mãos? O espetacular Homem-Aranha, que balançou-se até a Balsa depois de uma desastrosa noite na cidade? Brian Michael Bendis, um dos mais aclamados escritores de quadrinhos do nosso tempo, reinventou a maior equipe de super-heróis Marvel neste explosivo conto de caráter e heroísmo, apresentado agora como um romance pela habilidosa pena de Alisa Kwitney. Neste livro, publicado com exclusividade pela Novo Século, o leitor encontrará cenas inéditas e novos personagens, abrilhantando ainda mais a série que conquistou o Brasil.

Novos vingadores - Motim!

Passion. The kind of tear-your-clothes off, scream-your-lungs-out, crash-into-the-furniture passion that changes lives. It's what Delilah wants. It's what she craves. It's what she fantasizes about whenever her disinterested husband's not around. Okay, so it occasionally makes her late for the school run and distracts her from the fact there's no food in the fridge, but an elaborate fantasy life is a basic requirement for a fledgling soap opera writer. Lately, though, the oddest things have been happening in Delilah's real life. First, she discovers a couple of skeletons rattling around in her husband's closet. Then, she learns that the insolently sexy plumber who's been fixing her pipes and starring in her daydreams is really an undercover FBI agent. And now all the clues seem to point to the conclusion that she's the only person in New York City not carrying on a torrid affair. Which she intends to do something about. Or does she? Because there's nothing more dangerous than acting on your secret desire.
