The Listeners
Maggie Stiefvater
#1 New York Times bestselling novelist Maggie Stiefvater dazzles in this mesmerizing portrait of an irresistible heroine, an unlikely romance, and a hotel—and a world—in peril.
JANUARY 1942. THE AVALLON HOTEL AND SPA offers elegance and sophistication in an increasingly ugly world. Run with precision by June Hudson, the hotel’s West Virginia born-and-bred general manager, the Avallon is where high society goes to see and be seen, and where the mountain sweetwater in the fountains and spas can wash away all your troubles.
June was trained by the Gilfoyles, the hotel’s aristocratic owners, and she has guided the Avallon skillfully through the first pangs of war. Now, though, the Gilfoyle family heir has made a secret deal with the State Department to fill the hotel with captured Axis diplomats. June must convince her staff—many of whom have sons and husbands heading to the frontlines—to offer luxury to Nazis. With a smile.
She also must reckon with Tucker Minnick, the FBI agent whose coal tattoo hints at their shared past in the mountains, and whose search for the diplomats’ secrets disrupts the peace June is fighting so hard to maintain. Hers is a balancing act with dangerous consequences; the sweetwater beneath the hotel can threaten as well as heal, and only June can manage the springs.
As dark alliances and an elusive spy crack the polished veneer of the Avallon, June must calculate the true cost of luxury.

Maggie Stiefvater
Cada año, la noche de San Marcos, Blue Sargent acompaña a su madre al camino de los espíritus para ver a los que morirán en los siguientes doce meses. Sin embargo, este año es distinto: Blue, la única de su familia que no tiene facultades adivinatorias, ha visto a uno de estos espíritus, y eso solo puede significar que es su amor verdadero o que lo va a matar. Él se llama Gansey y es el estudiante más rico del colegio privado más elitista de la zona, la Academia Aglionby, cuyo emblema es un cuervo que todos los estudiantes llevan bordado en el jersey. Junto a Adam, un estudiante brillante, celoso del poder económico de sus compañeros; Ronan, un chico con problemas emocionales desde la muerte de su padre, y Noah, el observador taciturno que apenas habla, forman los chicos del cuervo, y están empeñados en descubrir la ubicación de la tumba del último rey galés, Glendower, el Rey Cuervo. Blue sabe que debe mantenerse alejada de ellos, porque los chicos del cuervo siempre traen problemas. Aunque nunca podría imaginarse el siniestro y oscuro mundo que los rodea, donde la magia dejará de ser un juego para convertirse en una amenaza mortal.
The Raven Boys (The Raven Cycle, #1)
Maggie Stiefvater
"'There are only two reasons a non-seer would see a spirit on St. Mark's Eve,' Neeve said. 'Either you're his true love...or you killed him.'"
It is freezing in the churchyard, even before the dead arrive.
Every year, Blue Sargent stands next to her clairvoyant mother as the soon-to-be dead walk past. Blue herself never sees them — not until this year, when a boy emerges from the dark and speaks directly to her.
His name is Gansey, and Blue soon discovers that he is a rich student at Aglionby, the local private school. Blue has a policy of staying away from Aglionby boys. Known as Raven Boys, they can only mean trouble.
But Blue is drawn to Gansey, in a way she can't entirely explain. He has it all — family money, good looks, devoted friends — but he's looking for much more than that. He is on a quest that has encompassed three other Raven Boys: Adam, the scholarship student who resents all the privilege around him; Ronan, the fierce soul who ranges from anger to despair; and Noah, the taciturn watcher of the four, who notices many things but says very little.
For as long as she can remember, Blue has been warned that she will cause her true love to die. She never thought this would be a problem. But now, as her life becomes caught up in the strange and sinister world of the Raven Boys, she's not so sure anymore.
From Maggie Stiefvater, the bestselling and acclaimed author of the Shiver trilogy and The Scorpio Races, comes a spellbinding new series where the inevitability of death and the nature of love lead us to a place we've never been before.

Desde sempre que as videntes da sua família avisam Blue de que se ela beijar o seu verdadeiro amor, ele morrerá. Mas Blue não acredita que se irá apaixonar.
Porém, tudo muda na noite de São Marcos, quando Blue, a única da sua família sem capacidades divinatórias, acompanha a tia a uma igreja abandonada enquanto os espíritos daqueles que irão morrer nos próximos meses passam por ela. Blue nunca consegue vê-los — até que o espírito de um rapaz emerge da escuridão e fala com ela.
O nome dele é Gansey, e é um dos alunos mais ricos de Aglionby, o colégio privado da região. Gansey tem tudo — dinheiro, boa aparência, amigos leais —, mas deseja muito mais. É por isso que se envolve numa missão com outros três rapazes corvos, como são conhecidos em Aglionby: Adam, o estudante bolseiro que se ressente dos privilégios que o rodeiam; Ronan, a alma feroz cujas emoções oscilam entre a raiva e o desespero; e Noah, o observador taciturno que repara em muito, mas fala pouco.
Embora tente manter-se afastada dos rapazes de Aglionby, Blue sente-se atraída para Gansey de uma forma inexplicável, e conforme a sua vida vai ficando cada vez mais ligada àquele mundo estranho e sinistro, a magia deixa de ser um jogo e torna-se uma ameaça mortal.

I ragazzi corvo, un gruppo di studenti della scintillante Aglionby Academy, sono sulle tracce del mitico re gallese Glendower, che dovrebbe essere nascosto nelle colline intorno alla scuola. Con loro c’è Blue, che vive in una famiglia di veggenti tutta al femminile. A lei è stato predetto più volte che quando bacerà il ragazzo di cui sarà davvero innamorata, questi morirà. Sulle prime sembra che il suo cuore batta per Adam, ma forse è Gansey quello che ama davvero… Intanto Ronan s’inoltra nei suoi sogni, da cui può uscire di tutto. Del resto è uno che ama sfidare il pericolo. Mentre il tormentato Adam, con un passato pesante alle spalle, s’inoltra sempre più in se stesso, cercando una sua strada nella vita. Nel frattempo c’è un individuo sinistro che è anche lui sulle tracce di Glendower. Un uomo pronto a tutto.
Di Raven Boys, Entertainment Weekly ha scritto: “L’avventura paranormale di Maggie Stiefvater si legge d’un fiato e vi farà chiedere a gran voce il secondo libro.” Ecco il secondo libro, con la stessa fervida immaginazione, lo stesso intreccio inquietante e romantico, e le svolte mozzafiato che Maggie Stiefvater sa costruire.

The adventure continues in this second book of the epic multiplatform fantasy series.
In the world of Erdas, only a rare few are able to summon a spirit animal in the way Conor, Abeke, Meilin, and Rollan have. The bond they share with their animals is a partnership that allows them to access more-than-human abilities.
But what if there was another way to create a spirit animal--to force the bond, giving the human partner total control? And what if someone with selfish intensions was offered this gift . . . with a catch?
The four young heroes have barely had time to come together as a team, and their own spirit animal bonds are still greatly untested. But now they face a brutal confrontation against an enemy who will break any rule to defeat them.

Profetien (Ravnekretsen, #1)
Maggie Stiefvater
Hvis du kysser ditt livs kjærlighet, vil han dø.
Hvert år står Blue sammen med sin klarsynte mor på kirkegården mens de som snart skal dø, gis til kjenne. Blue ser dem aldri selv. Men i år kommer en skygge ut av mørket og snakker til henne. Senere ser hun den samme gutten på Aglionby, den lokale privatskolen.
Skal hun advare ham? Blue trekkes mot Gansey og gjengen hans, men hele livet har hun blitt fortalt at den første hun kysser, vil dø. Hva om advarselen er det som lokker ham inn i døden?
Dette er året da alt i Blues liv forandres. Dette er året hun dras inn i ravneguttenes verden. Dette er året hun vil oppdage at magi virkelig eksisterer. Og dette er året hun blir forelsket.
