Deux étrangers liés par une bibliothèque-monde regorgeant de mystérieuses merveilles... et de secrets plus nombreux encore. Evar a passé toute sa vie prisonnier d'une salle remplie de livres, plus ancienne que les Empires, plus vaste qu'une cité. Livira vivait aux confins de la civilisation, où rôdent les cauchemars et où nul ne se rend. Lorsqu'elle est arrachée à son village, elle se consacre à l'étude des mystères qui irriguent la grande bibliothèque, coeur battant du royaume. Ils n'étaient pas censés se rencontrer. Dans la bibliothèque, leurs chemins se sont pourtant croisés.

La bibliothèque englobe les mondes et les époques. Au cœur de ses vastes espaces, Evar Eventari a rencontré Livira Page, puis l'y a perdue. Menacé par un ennemi implacable, Evar a été contraint de fuir la bibliothèque. Livira, piégée sous forme de fantôme, doit pour reprendre le cours de sa vie recouvrer le livre qu'elle a écrit et qui menace l'existence même de la bibliothèque. Tandis que le périple d'Evar l'emmène à la découverte d'un monde qu'il n'avait encore jamais vu, Livira s'abîme dans le vertige de ses propres écrits.

In Everthing Is F*cked, Mark Manson turns his gaze from the inevitable flaws within each individual self to the endless calamities taking place in the world around us.

Russia is famous for its vodka, and its culture of extreme intoxication. But just as vodka is central to the lives of many Russians, it is also central to understanding Russian history and politics. In Vodka Politics, Mark Lawrence Schrad argues that debilitating societal alcoholism is not hard-wired into Russians' genetic code, but rather their autocratic political system, which has long wielded vodka as a tool of statecraft. Through a series of historical investigations stretching from Ivan the Terrible through Vladimir Putin, Vodka Politics presents the secret history of the Russian state itself.

Insightful and hard-hitting as ever, Levin proves that since its establishment, the Democrat Party has set out to rewrite history and destroy the foundation of freedom in America.

The world reels as the Tribulation midpoint approaches. With it comes the terrors of the first four trumpet judgments—volcanic eruptions, asteroids, poisoned waters, and darkened skies. The biblical signs are being fulfilled daily. Authoritarian governments everywhere are cowing their citizens. Lawlessness and disorder are tearing society apart. The world turns not to God, but to immorality. Churches everywhere abandon the Bible and preach apostasy. It’s all preparing the world for the coming of the Antichrist and the seven years of Tribulation.

Davi has done this all before. She’s tried to be the hero and take down the all-powerful Dark Lord. A hundred times she’s rallied humanity and made the final charge. But the time loop always gets her in the end. Sometimes she’s killed quickly. Sometimes it takes a while. But she’s been defeated every time. This time? She’s done being the hero and done being stuck in this endless time loop. If the Dark Lord always wins, then maybe that’s who she needs to be. It’s Davi’s turn to play on the winning side.

In a sprawling mansion filled with peculiar treasures, January Scaller is a curiosity herself.
