Pack Fantasía Juvenil
LA HIJA DE LOS HUESOS En todas las islas del Imperio, se extrae detrás de la oreja de cada niño un trozo de hueso, durante un ritual que con demasiada frecuencia es fatal. Desde su palacio, el emperador utiliza estos preciosos fragmentos para crear y controlar formidables quimeras animales, los constructos que mantienen la ley y el orden. Pero su autoridad flaquea y la rebelión ruge por todas partes. Lin ha perdido sus recuerdos y pasa sus días en el enorme palacio lleno de puertas cerradas y oscuros secretos. Cuando su padre se niega a reconocerla como heredera del trono, ella promete demostrar su valía dominando el arte prohibido sobre la magia de los huesos. Magia que tiene un precio. Cuando la revolución golpee las puertas del palacio, Lin tendrá que decidir hasta dónde está dispuesta a llegar para reclamar su herencia y salvar a su pueblo UNA BRUJA EN EL TIEMPO Helen acepta una cita a ciegas después de mucho tiempo, pero no está muy segura de que sea una buena idea. Luke le está diciendo que la conoce desde hace años, siglos incluso. Pero eso es imposible, su vida es la misma que la de cualquier otra mujer. Le acompaña con desconfianza a visitar el museo y para su sorpresa se reconoce a sí misma en una pintura de una joven en la Belle Époque de Francia. Debe ser una casualidad, no puede ser ella. Sin embargo, desde esa noche comienza a tener sueños muy vívidos sobre un amor trágico y vidas que se acaban antes de tiempo.
