Yang Neon
Discesa tra i mostri. Il Tensorato. Vol. 3
br. Qualcosa di terrribile è successo all'Istituto di Metodi Sperimentali Rewar Teng. Quando sono arrivati, gli investigatori del Tensorato si sono trovati davanti a una distesa di sangue e ossa a perdita d'occhio. Uno degli esperimenti dell'Istituto è sparito, e non ha lasciato superstiti. Gli investigatori tornano alla capitale senza molti indizi, ma con due prigionieri: il capo dei terroristi Sanao Akeha e un* su* compagn* conosciuta come Rider. L'investigatrice Chuwan si trova davanti a un rompicapo. Cos'è successo realmente all'Istituto? Cosa stanno cercando di nascondere i suoi superiori? E perché ha l'impressione che gli strani sogni che fa la stiano spingendo a imboccare un percorso sempre più stringente al quale non può sottrarsi? La saga del Tensorato spalanca le frontiere più innovative della speculative fiction: con la sua prosa affilata e insieme epica, Neon Yang scardina molte delle convenzioni di genere (letterario e non solo), ridefinendo i confini e le modalità di ciò che significa "raccontare storie".

Yang Neon
I fili rossi della fortuna. Il Tensorato. Vol. 2
br. Profetessa ormai decaduta, dominatrice degli Elementi, e figlia della Protettrice, Sanao Mokoya ha deciso di cambiare vita. Un tempo le sue visioni davano forma alle vite dei suoi concittadini in tutto il paese, ma, anche se prevedeva immani tragedie, Mokoya non aveva modo di ridisegnare il futuro. Devastata dalla perdita della figlia, inizia una caccia contro i letali naga, capaci di oscurare il cielo, nelle lande più remote del regno, lontana da tutto ciò che amava, accompagnata da un branco di raptor. Seguendo le tracce di un enorme naga che minaccia la città mineraria ribelle di Bataanar, Mokoya incontra le misteriose e affascinante Rider. Ma le cose non sono come sembrano: la bestia che entrambe inseguono nasconde un segreto che potrebbe far scoppiare la guerra in tutto il Protettorato. Invischiata in una cospirazione di magie e tradimenti, Mokoya deve venire a patti con il suo dono straordinario e pericoloso, o rischiare di perdere quel poco che ancora le è caro. La saga del Tensorato spalanca le frontiere più innovative della speculative fiction: con la sua prosa affilata e insieme epica, Neon Yang scardina molte delle convenzioni di genere (letterario e non solo), ridefinendo i confini e le modalità di ciò che significa "raccontare storie".

Yang Neon
Le maree nere del cielo. Il Tensorato. Vol. 1
br. Mokoya e Akeha, le gemelle figlie della Protettrice Sanao, sono state affidate al Grande Monastero da bambine per adempiere a una promessa. Mokoya ha sviluppato un talento profetico, Akeha ha sempre avuto il dono di comprendere quali motivazioni si celano dietro le azioni degli adulti. Mokoya ha illuminazioni su ciò che sarà, Akeha comprende cosa potrebbe essere. Entrambe hanno visto il marcio che si annida nel cuore del Protettorato. Il momento della confermazione segna la prima divisione nel destino delle due gemelle. Altre ne seguiranno: Akeha infatti non vuole più essere una pedina negli intrighi orditi da sua madre, così si lascia tutto alle spalle e parte in cerca del proprio cammino, fino a che la sua strada non incrocerà quella dei Macchinisti che si ribellano allo strapotere del Tensorato. La saga del Tensorato, di cui questo è il primo libro, spalanca le frontiere più innovative della speculative fiction: con la sua prosa affilata e insieme epica, Neon Yang scardina molte delle convenzioni di genere (letterario e non solo), ridefinendo i confini e le modalità di ciò che significa "raccontare storie".

Yeats WB. edited and selected by. William Butler Yeats. W. B.
IRISH FAIRY AND FOLK TALES.
New York: Barnes & Noble 1993. 416 pp 8 1/4" H. B&w illustrations. "W.B. Yeats included almost every sort of Irish folk tale in this marvelous compendium of fairy tales and song which he collected and edited for publication in 1892. Here are tales of the chilling wail of the Banshee whose cry portends death and of the fish-tailed Merrow whose beautiful women spurn their green-haired husbands for handsome local fishermen. There are bewitched puddings lost wishes fairies changelings Leprechauns ghosts giants devils and kings that touch our souls and fire our imagination. Not coincidentally it is in the weath of symbol within Irish folklore that Yeats found the key to his personal and individual mythology - the muse of his poetic genius." The stories are gathered under the headings: The Fate of the Children of Lir; The Trooping Fairies The Fairies / Changelings / The Merrow; The Solitary Fairies; Ghosts; Witches Fairy Doctors; Tyeer-Na-N-Oge; Saints Priests; The Devil; Giants; Kings Queens Princesses Earls Robbers. Tiny faint in mark at bottom edge of pages 258 & 263 very tiny tear and faint ink mark at bottom edge of pages 259 to 262 minor wrinkling at bottom of spine.
