Seth Grahame-Smith, author of Pride and Prejudice and ZombiesWhen the Imperial prison barge Purge-temporary home to five hundred of the galaxy's most ruthless killers, Rebels, scoundrels, and thieves-breaks down in a distant part of space, its only hope appears to lie with a Star Destroyer found drifting and seemingly abandoned.

The era of the Old Republic is a dark and dangerous time, as Jedi Knights valiantly battle the Sith Lords and their ruthless armies. But the Sith have disturbing plans – and none more so than the fulfilment of Darth Scabrous’s fanatical dream, which is about to become nightmarish reality.Unlike those other Jedi sidelined to the Agricultural Corps – young Jedi whose abilities have not proved up to snuff – Hestizo Trace possesses one extraordinary Force talent: a gift with plants. Suddenly her quiet existence among greenhouse and garden specimens is violently destroyed by the arrival of an emissary from Darth Scabrous. For the rare black orchid that she has nurtured and bonded with is the final ingredient in an ancient Sith formula that promises to grant Darth Scabrous his greatest desire.But at the heart of the formula is a never-before-seen virus that’s worse than fatal – it doesn’t just kill, it transforms. Now the rotting, ravenous dead are rising, driven by a bloodthirsty hunger for all things living –and commanded by a Sith Master with an insatiable lust for power and the ultimate prize: immortality… no matter the cost.-----Praise for Joe Schreiber’s Star Wars: Death Troopers'This is the Star Wars of every horror fan’s dreams – gory, funny, and brimming with a blood-spattered cast of swashbucklers and space-zombies.' – Seth Grahame-Smith, author of Pride and Prejudice and Zombies

But he doesn’t want her money, only her suffering–and he will kill Veda if Sue doesn’t follow his every command.

It seemed so logical at first. Fourteen-year-old Lenny Cyrus had loved Zooey Andrews since third grade. All the boy genius needed to do to win her heart, surely, was shrink down to the size of an amoeba, ooze into a gelatin capsule, and have his friend Harlan slip it (him!) into Zooey’s Diet Coke. Told in three voices, this fantastical middle grade novel takes Lenny deep into Zooey’s loud, splashing innards, where a talking astrovirus named Astro has a bad attitude about white blood cells (“self-righteous pus-bags”) and aromatic hormones disco dance. The question is, will Lenny and Zooey survive his crazy experiment in nanotechnology?

A punto de terminar la preparatoria, Perry tiene poco de qué preocuparse por su futuro: fue aceptado por las mejores universidades y le espera un buen trabajo en la firma legal de su padre. Sólo resta disfrutar lo que resta del año escolar, y eso incluye la visita de intercambio de una chica europea. Pero cuando la estudiante extranjera llega a casa de Perry, es todo menos una modelo de ojos claros. Bajita, rechoncha y desaliñada Gobija Zaksauskas es más una carga que una aventura… hasta el día de graduación, en el que, como una Cenicienta malévola, Gobija se transforma en una joven belleza... asesina.

Inchworm está de gira por Europa, y en Venecia, Perry no puede evitar las ganas de darse una vuelta por el Harry''s Bar, donde Gobi le dijo que lo buscaría llegado el tiempo. La última vez que vio a esa chica cinco personas murieron en la ciudad de Nueva York… Gobi aparece y Perry se verá involucrado de nueva cuenta en un pisa y corre con cadáveres al por mayor. Encrucijadas, raptos, agentes de la CIA, traficantes de armas, trepidantes persecuciones en góndolas por los canales de Venecia y hasta un disparatado tiroteo en el centro de una convención dedicada a Santa Claus, es sólo un poco de lo que encontraremos en esta hilarante historia, cargada de acción, secuela de la aclamada novela Adiós, mi loca europea.
