Experience the tragic epic of the 'Prodigal Knight'-a master of both the dark and the light sides of the force-Revan. There's something out there: a juggernaut of evil bearing down to crush the Republic-unless one lone Jedi, shunned and reviled, can stop it. Revan, a jedi both revered and reviled, has carved out a peaceful life with Bastila Shan, his wife, on Coruscant. But his past life, memories long lost, continue to plague his dreams. And the former Sith lord fears they are harbingers of a danger on the verge of reemergence. To head off this threat before it can come to pass and destroy everything he and Bastila fought for, Revan must pursue the echoes of his past. Although his adversary remains shrouded in mystery, Revan vows to preserve the Republic, and to protect his family until his last breath. (immagine) Categoria: Books: novel/sci fi/horror

PAUL SAMMON (W) and FRANK FRAZETTA (Cover) This in-depth tour through the history of fantasy's greatest hero covers everything from the earliest prose, to Frazetta's explosive artwork, through the Schwarzenegger film, and into the recent rebirth of the character as a leading comic-book hero. Since his first appearance in a 1932 pulp magazine, Conan the Barbarian has enjoyed every success available to a fictional character. Robert E. Howard created the genre of sword and sorcery with his original stories; Frank Frazetta's definitive Conan book covers set the standard for dynamic fantasy artwork; Roy Thomas, with Barry Smith and later John Buscema, used the character to push the boundaries of comic-book adventure; and Arnold Schwarzenegger launched his amazing film career. Now, with the character's popularity renewed thanks to the award-winning comics series, all of these eras of Conan are examined under one cover in this lavishly illustrated book. Conan historian Paul Sammon looks at all the stages of the character's development, with commentary and archival material from the most integral players in that history.

Edson Arantes do Nascimento, known to his schoolmates as Pelé, grew up in poverty in the Sao Paulo region of Brazil. He was too poor to afford a real soccer ball, so he played with a ball of newspaper tied together with string. Yet he dominated the youth leagues and signed his first professional soccer contract at the age of fifteen. Within two years he was celebrated internationally, when he led Brazil to victory at the world cup. Known by his fans as 'O Rei' (The King), Pelé is widely regarded as the greatest soccer player of all time. But he's more than just an athlete: he also traveled the world as goodwill ambassador for UNICEF. Pelé is the living symbol of a sport he dubbed 'the beautiful game,' a game that brings people together regardless of race or nationality. Available in Softcover and Hardcover editions.

Widely regarded as Japan's greatest animated director, Hayao Miyazaki creates films lauded for vibrant characters and meaningful narrative themes. Examining the messages of his 10 full-length films, from Nausicaä (1984) to The Wind Rises (2013), this study analyzes each for its religious, philosophical and ethical implications. Miyazaki's work addresses a coherent set of human concerns, including adolescence, good and evil, our relationship to the past, our place in the natural order, and the problems of living in a complex and ambiguous world. Exhibiting religious influences without religious endorsement, his films enjoin nonjudgment and perseverance in everyday life. (immagine) Categoria: Books: novel/sci fi/horror

While their allies wage war on a thousand different fronts, the XVIth Legion descend upon the Knight World of Molech, home to House Devine and their feudal levies, and a principal seat of Imperial military power. Just what could have drawn Horus to attack such a strongly defended planet, and what might he be willing to sacrifice to fulfill his own dark destiny? (immagine) Categoria: Books: novel/sci fi/horror
