Enclave - Ann Aguirre - Bog - Square Fish - Plusbog.dk

Ann Aguirre''s thrilling young adult novel Enclave is the story of two young people in an apocalyptic world--facing dangers, and feelings, unlike any they''ve ever known. New York City has been decimated by war and plague, and most of civilization has migrated to underground enclaves, where life expectancy is no more than the early 20''s. When Deuce turns 15, she takes on her role as a Huntress, and is paired with Fade, a teenage Hunter who lived Topside as a young boy. When she and Fade discover that the neighboring enclave has been decimated by the tunnel monsters--or Freaks--who seem to be growing more organized, the elders refuse to listen to warnings. And when Deuce and Fade are exiled from the enclave, the girl born in darkness must survive in daylight--guided by Fade''s long-ago memories--in the ruins of a city whose population has dwindled to a few dangerous gangs.

LONGLISTED FOR THE MILES FRANKLIN LITERARY AWARD 2023 ''These are troubling times. The world is a dangerous place,'' the voice of the Chairman said. ''I can continue to assure you of this: within the Wall you are perfectly safe.'' Christine could not sleep, she could not wake, she could not think. She stared, half-blind, at the cold screen of her smartphone. She was told the Agency was keeping them safe from the dangers outside, an outside world she would never see.She never imagined questioning what she was told, what she was allowed to know, what she was permitted to think. She never even thought there were questions to ask.The enclave was the only world she knew, the world outside was not safe. Staying or leaving was not a choice she had the power to make. But then Christine dared start thinking . . . and from that moment, danger was everywhere.In our turbulent times, Claire G. Coleman''s Enclave is a powerful dystopian allegory that confronts the ugly realities of racism, homophobia, surveillance, greed and privilege and the self-destructive distortions that occur when we ignore our shared humanity.''A brilliant, engrossing, necessary read'' COURIER MAIL ''Much of this novel feels frighteningly plausible ... Coleman''s world shimmers on the page like a heat haze'' ARTS HUB ''If you liked Margaret Atwood''s The Handmaid''s Tale or Charlotte Woods'' The Natural Way of Things , this one is clearly for you'' SYDNEY MORNING HERALD ''The book holds up a thoughtful mirror showing us to ourselves using an all too real future'' KILL YOUR DARLINGS '' Enclave is a novel that inclines towards hope ... offers us an alternative: a world in which people, in meeting the demands of the present with curiosity, courage and conviction, can bring about a more just and inclusive future'' NEW DAILY ''Coleman can turn a deft phrase ... She writes a mean chase sequence, ramping up the suspense when she wants, with fight scenes and great narrative propulsion'' THE AGE ''Coleman offers an urgent critique of bigotry and, implicitly, of colonialism, writing with conviction about the ways technology can be misused by those in power, but also how it might be deployed for good. Indeed, despite its dystopian tenor, Enclave is ultimately a hopeful novel, and one which suggests it is far from futile to aspire to a better future'' MANJIMUP-BRIDGETOWN TIMES ''If Margaret Atwood''s dystopian Handmaid''s Tale ignited a spark, you''ll rip through Claire Coleman''s new novel like a forest fire'' MARIE CLAIRE ''She is toying with the canon, but also placing menacing signposts of the unsustainability of the settlement''s brutal, exclusionary politics. Enclave is a clarion shout against demonising the unfamiliar, and the temptation to withdraw into a bubble'' THE GUARDIAN

Starlight Enclave - R. A. Salvatore - Bog - HarperCollins Publishers Inc - Plusbog.dk

Starlight Enclave - R. A. Salvatore - Bog - HarperCollins Publishers Inc - Plusbog.dk

From New York Times bestselling author R. A. Salvatore comes a new trilogy and adventure of Drizzt and fantasy’s beloved characters from Dungeons & Dragons’ Forgotten Realms. After the settling dust of the demon uprising and two years of peace, rumblings from the Menzoberranzan drow have Jarlaxle nervous. Worried his allies may be pulled into a Civil War between the great Houses, he is eager to ensure Zaknafein is armed with weapons befitting his skill, including one in particular: Khazid’hea . A powerful artifact, the sword known as “Cutter” has started wars, corrupted its users, and spilled the blood of many, many people. Nonetheless—or maybe because of that—the rogue Jarlaxle and a small group of friends will go on an expedition looking for the weapon’s last wielder, Doum’wielle, in the freezing north, for she may be the key to unlocking the sword’s potential…and perhaps the key to preventing the bloodshed looming over the Underdark. And as they explore the top of the world, Drizzt is on a journey of his own—both spiritual and physical. He wants to introduce his daughter Brie to Grandmaster Kane and the practices that have been so central to his beliefs. But, having only recently come back from true transcendence, the drow ranger is no longer sure what his beliefs mean anymore. He is on a path to determining the future, not just for his family, but perhaps the entire northlands of the Realms themselves. Two different roads. On one, Jarlaxle and Zaknefein are on a quest to find pieces that could offer salvation to Menzoberranzan. On the other, Drizzt seeks answers that could offer salvation to not just his soul, but all souls. And no matter the outcome of either journey, the Realms will never be the same again.
