En mi historia, dos personas se quedan atrapadas durante días en el aeropuerto de NY, a causa de una tormenta de nieve. Los dos están casados pero entre ellos pronto se establece una conexión inevitable. Bésame en mitad de la tormenta es una historia alegre y triste a la vez, una historia que te hace viajar a una situación con unas particularidades especiales. Porque estar atrapado sin conexión durante días, no ocurre todos los días, y es el caldo de cultivo ideal para una bonita historia de amor. #orbitarocolisionar #libro #book #relatos #EsterGarcia

Blurb: Loret is fresh off the boat, and just in time. As Cohort-Invigilator of Correct Appreciation, Outreach department, she's here as aide to the Palleseen Resident, Sage-Invigilator Angilly. And Sage-Invigilator Angilly – Gil to her friends – needs a second in the spectacularly illegal, culturally offensive and diplomatically inadvisable duel she must fight at midnight. Outreach, that part of the Pal machine that has to work within the imperfection of the rest of the world, has a lot of room for the illegal, the unconventional, the unorthodox. But just how much unorthodoxy can Gil and Loret get away with? As a succession crisis looms, as a long-forgotten feat of necromantic engineering nears fruition, as pirate kings, lizard armies and demons gather, as old gods wane …

But just how much unorthodoxy can Gil and Loret get away with? As a succession crisis looms, as a long-forgotten feat of necromantic engineering nears fruition, as pirate kings, lizard armies and demons gather, as old gods wane and new gods wax, sooner or later Gil and Loret will have to settle their ledger. Just as well they are both very, very good with a blade...
Review: Not as good as the first two books, I'll say that right now. I can't exactly explain why, because pretty much everything to love about the last two books is in this - the empire is large but definitely not in charge, and there are various factions and threads that Tchaikovsky effortlessly weaves through the story until they start coming together in an extremely satisfying way. Loret's backstory, Gil's love life, the necromancers, the House of Hard Angles, the pirates, the monks. Every single member of the royal family feels so distinct and has a clear role to play in this book right up to the end. Same with figures within the Pallaseen, including Gil and Loret but also Flint and Drathel. I just really love how he writes these books...
I'm so interested to see how this series shapes up, because the way it has currently gone has been fascinating with how each book has affected the Empire, and may cause it's downfall? Maybe? I can't tell if that is the direction this goes in, but I'm locked in for the next three books! Also I definitely think the vibe has shifted between each book, and this one is the most "fun" of the three, given that the first was heavy on revolution and the second heavy on death and injury and war and pain... This one is more adventurous, maybe.
Also really loved to see Jack and the hospital having a role in this book, and Helgrim! Very surprised to see Helgrim here, but I really love him and his centipede wife so it's okay. I really wonder if Helgrim is actually from Warhammer or something since the way they're written makes it feel that way. I dunno. But it's really cool to see these threads from the last two books continue into this one, especially with the Viper who has a big role in this book. I love all those characters :)
Anyway I genuinely can't think of single bad thing about this book, the first two were just a little better. So it gets a 9. But I highly recommend this series, it's so good!! Sorry this was more of a ramble than a review

Here is a new review of my #solarpunk novella, The Blossoming of the Big Tree, and hope it can nudge you to make a purchase.
“I enjoyed this novella. It has a delightful and satisfying ending, a main character that I wholly enjoyed meeting, and a lot of different points for discussion if read as a group.”

The book "A Life on Our Planet" is a hard (as in "tough") read, but well worth the effort. In fact, you should read it!
Sir David Attenborough recently turned 100. He has seen the world around him change. Not just in the general sense, but from an environmental, social, and financial perspective.

Me pidieron que reseñara «Lengua mutante», una antología coordinada por Ártemis López sobre distintas formas de lenguaje inclusivo (antirracista, anticapacitista, feminista, no binario, etc.) y eso hice. Y ya por fin podéis leer la reseña en la revista Vasos Comunicantes: https://vasoscomunicantes.ace-traductores.org/2026/01/30/lengua-mutante-coordinado-por-artemis-lopez/
Hace más de 10 años un amigo me contó una historia que me dejó fascinada. Durante la estancia en un Hotel, sonó una alarma durante la noche. Él y su amiga quedaron muy impresionados cuando al consultar con el recepcionista, los únicos que escuchaban la alarma eran ellos. Durante muchos años he tenido esta historia dando vueltas en la cabeza, queriendo ser contada.
La protagonista de esta historia, vive una aventura en ese mismo Hotel, un Hotel que se dice que está maldito, donde han sucedido, asesinatos, suicidios, desapariciones y albergado a varios asesinos en serie.
Esta historia está cargada de elementos reales y de otros no tan reales, ¿a qué esperas para leerla?
