7 STONES TO BE PICKED FROM THE BEACH IN THE MORNING. DAY AFTER DAY. 7 STONES. UNTIL... HE FINDS SOMETHING ENTIRELY DIFFERENT: A CORPSE.

Aill is the name of a small Irish village where some peculiar neighbours live. Brian McNeill is the best example: he is twelve years old, has bowl-cut hair and every morning he must pick 7 stones from the beach before going to school. It has to be 7 stones. In Aill, there are fifty inhabitants and, according to our editor, it remains a bit to Goscinny’s Gaulish village. It may seem like nothing ever happens in a place like this but mysteries around very uptodate subjects such as the environment or new technologies will lead all Brain’s adventures.

Olivia was four years old when she first read her mother’s mind. She clearly heard her mother’s voice even though she was not moving her lips. It did not surprise her; when you are four years old there are few things that surprise you.

From that moment and on, Olivia’s power grew. She could read thoughts and more importantly, she began to “hear” other people’s minds. Then Olivia discovered something else: everyone’s mind has a different “smell”, “taste”, “sound” and “feel”. However, she never found anything as horrible and sickening as when she crossed the monster’s mind.

César Mallorquí (Barcelona, 1953). Given the profession of his father, José, the creator of “El Coyote”, his love for literature was born at a young age and he soon published his first tale in a magazine. Later, he studied journalism and worked in La Codorniz magazine and for the radio station SER. He has obtained several awards such are Alberto Magno Prize 1992, UPC Prize 1995, Gigamesh Prize 1996, 1996 Gran Angular 2001 and 3 times the EDEBÉ AWARD. 1996, 1999, 2002 & 2012. In 2013 he obtained the Spanish National Children and Young Adult Award (Bowen’s Island, edebe 2012) and in 2015 his prolific career has been recognized with the Cervantes Chico Award.

Sergio García was born in 1967. He has a doctorate in Fine Arts while also working as an illustrator and designer of comic series. He has participated in a great number of conferences and workshops in libraries and public schools and has been awarded several prizes for his illustrations.

The fluffy breathing of the dog and the branches over their heads, combining the grey sky. There was neither before nor after.

DAVID IS A 16 YEAR-OLD INTELLIGENT BOY, PASSIONATE ABOUT MUSIC. BUT HIS LIFE IS VERY STRESSFUL AND HE HAS TO FIGHT AGAINST A DEPRESSION THAT MAKES HIS EXISTENCE UNBEARABLE.

Saving a cat from a certain death changed David’s destiny. The fact of saving the cat permitted him to meet the town kook (who is said to have an Ewok in his garden) and this encounter will, in a sense, save his own life. Pedro Ramos has managed to show us the dark side of our souls without naming it, the depression signs and the crazy ideas that come to the mind of people who suffer it.

Everything is described in a very disturbing style. But there is light at the end of the tunnel that gives hope to readers to walk away from darkness.

MORE ERIK VOGLER’S ADVENTURES BUT NOW TOLD FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF HIS OMNIPRESENT ANTAGONIST: ALBERT ZIMMER My name is Albert. I began to suspect that my parents were monsters long before I met Berta Vogler. I probably fooled myself throughout that time. No one in their right mind would have been happy to grow up with bloodthirsty parents. So I tried to ignore certain details of my family DNA until Erik Vogler appeared in my life and contributed to question my nature and my own origins.

Although if it hadn’t been for him, maybe I wouldn’t have discovered the demons around me.

A call from superintendent Roth takes Albert out of his criminology studies in Amsterdam and send him back to Bremen. Two teenagers have died and, given the traits surrounding the crimes, his cooperation will be very helpful...

Carmen looked up on her computer the advertisement she had seen on the school bulletin board. It was called “Everyday heroes wanted’ and encouraged people to tell a story of everyday heroism in a competition offering forty thousand euros to the winner. On the home page of the website she found photos on both sides that referred to the texts. She randomly clicked on one that looked old: it showed a young boy hugging a dog. The dog was wearing an eye patch. In the text, a girl was telling the story of her boyfriend. For Carmen, it was clear that people were going to try to win the contest by being melodramatic. However, she didn’t want to be pitiful. No one-eyed dogs or sick children, just the plain and simple truth.

How do we show ourselves to others, how do others see us, how are we with ourselves? This harsh realist novel is a fiction masterfully created by Care Santos, but it could perfectly be a journalistic investigation on a true event, one of those that, when you hear it on the TV or radio, shake your conscience and makes you wonder how could something like this has happened? How could someone so young commit such an atrocity? Many people may think that there are some things that are better ignored. But then, how can we prevent that they happen again? Do you dare to face your third mask? Each chapter of this book introduces you to a different character from Diana’s environment. Each one speaks in first person about Diana and their relationship with her. In the first part, people from her everyday life speak; in the second part, it is the turn of the ones she loved; in the third part, Diana herself narrates the story.

When the space shuttle Sila V takes off for the far reaches of the Solar System, it does so with the wrong crew: twelve teenagers.. The boys and girls, selected by WASA (the future NASA) to promote the Lunae 2 mission, come from twelve different countries and have very different social backgrounds. Faced with the impossibility of turning around, and during the two years of the trip, they will have to live in a framework of isolation and multiple difficulties, such as the demands of a hard training, the low gravity or the unknown reasons of their unexpected take-off.

At a certain point, the twelve have split up. Six remain in the Solar System and the other six end up through a wormhole on a planet in the star Fomalhaut (“Whale’s Mouth” in Arabic), an extraordinary place that hides the secrets of the civilisation that created the egg ship: the Tubulars. In their attempt to undo what happened, the two groups go through experiences that will affect the future of humanity.
