L'âge d'or des Sith (Légendes des Jedi, Tome #2)

Les hydrogues ont été vaincus. Mais les différentes factions sortent difficilement de l'épreuve et d'autres conflits se préparent. Le cruel président de la Hanse, Basil Wenceslas, s'efforce d'écraser la nouvelle Confédération menée par le jeune roi rebelle, Peter.

Et leurs créateurs, les Klikiss eux-mêmes, qu'on avait cru éteints depuis longtemps, sont réapparus avec l'intention de reconquérir leurs mondes. Plus menaçants encore, les faeros, des entités élémentales aussi terrifiantes que versatiles, se sont joints à un Ildiran dément pour déclarer la guerre à toute autre forme de vie. Alors que l'espoir semblait renaître du côté des humains et de leurs alliés, ils risquent maintenant d'être engouffrés dans l'embrasement général...

The X-Files Archives, Tome 4

For a moment, the world stood still. .but our people were forced to stand alone.  And in the midst of this darkness, one Colorado group decided to use art to heal broken hearts. As mandatory stay-at-home orders continued, it became clear that the Coronavirus pandemic would not surrender anytime soon. Feelings of trepidation and sadness spread like wildfire, and our people grew weary and afraid. That's when the Graduate Program in Creative Writing at Western Colorado University created "The Great Isolation Writing Contest, " to take away some of the powerlessness that some were feeling. Seventeen winners of that competition are represented in this anthology. Writers from different disciplines-nature writing, screenwriting, poetry, and genre fiction-expressed their responses to a world we could no longer understand. And all were gathered and published in a new volume by the Publishing students at Western. Each entry in this collection is innovative and brings us through emotions that range from exciting, to funny, to reflective. And just as The Decameron became the literary voice of the 14th century's black plague, so too "The Great Isolation" is our collective answer to the 21st century pandemic.  We are, it seems, in this aloneness together.

What happens when-A wimpy, henpecked man finds an enchanted loincloth that turns him into a real jungle Ape Man?A stranded alien uses his advanced technology to fool audiences as a stage magician?A frustrated monster-movie actor uses a gypsy witch's special makeup to turn into a real werewolf when the cameras start to roll?A group of heavy-metal fans finds a spell on the internet to raise their favorite dead rock star from the grave for a final encore?A vampire, just minding his own business, wakes from his coffin to find he's being stalked through his own castle by an over-enthusiastic vampire hunter?A futuristic law firm uses time travel as a legal loophole to win their client's case?Dan Shamble, Zombie P. I. takes on the Boogeyman for a client, or is hired out to save a sacrificial Aztec Christmas turkey?These twenty stories cover a range of slapstick, subtle, short-short, and groaner humor.
