[Spanish] - El tiempo de los héroes Audiobook

"La biografía novelada de Juan Modesto, uno de los jefes de las milicias comunistas, recoge toda la épica y la tragedia de la Guerra Civil española. Una de las mejores historias sobre el conflicto. Marzo de 1939. A punto de caer Madrid y tras las derrotas del río Ebro y Cataluña, el ejército republicano se desploma mientras las tropas franquistas avanzan hacia Levante, a la conquista de los últimos bastiones de la Segunda República. En el pueblo de Petrel (Alicante), el gobierno de Juan Negrín y buena parte de los dirigentes del Partido Comunista preparan su salida de España. Y hasta allí llega el general Juan Modesto para organizar, junto con otros jefes militares republicanos, la evacuación del gobierno. Son los últimos días de la guerra y los recuerdos se agolpan en la mente de Modesto. Por su memoria desfilan los días de su infancia, las alegres jornadas del Madrid que resistía el avance del fascismo, sus amores, los combates del Quinto Regimiento y de las Brigadas Internacionales, todas las batallas que le convertirían en una leyenda: el Jarama, Brunete, Belchite, Teruel, el Ebro, Cataluña... El Juan Modesto de la realidad histórica se convierte, en esta novela, en un personaje que alcanza la dimensión de los guerreros de antaño, de los héroes clásicos."

Punk's Force: A Novel

"In the electrifying fourth novel of the Punk series, Admiral “Punk” Reichert faces a critical mission that could redefine naval warfare. With the future of the USS Gerald Ford—and the entire aircraft carrier program—hanging in the balance, Punk must prove that America’s pride can defend itself against the most advanced hypersonic missile threats. If he fails, long-range bombers may replace carriers, and the Navy’s legacy will be forever altered. Tasked with Operation Blue Aegis, Punk assembles a formidable team of former squadmates and brilliant engineers to deploy a cutting-edge directed-energy weapon, leveraging the latest in machine learning technology for battlefield supremacy. Yet, as he battles bureaucratic obstacles and personal crises—including his wife’s cancer diagnosis—he soon realizes that a far more sinister plot is unfolding. Enter Justin Wolfe, a ruthless tech magnate whose ambitions stretch from machine learning to supplying drones to terrorist groups. Wolfe’s vendetta against the Navy drives him to orchestrate an elaborate scheme involving a traitor within Punk’s ranks. With the stakes escalating, Wolfe will stop at nothing to see the Ford sunk, believing it will usher in a new era where technology reigns supreme over traditional military might. As tensions rise, Punk’s team grapples with internal conflicts and the shocking murder of a young engineer, heightening suspicion and anxiety. With only one directed-energy weapon at his disposal, Punk fights to maintain focus and morale among his team as they prepare for the test of a lifetime. On the day of the operation, chaos erupts as Wolfe hacks the Air Force’s systems to launch live hypersonic missiles at the Ford. The Navy and Air Force engage in a high-stakes showdown off the California coast, pitting the best pilots against the clock. In a heart-pounding race against time, Punk must rely on his leadership and the unwavering spirit of his team to counter a barrage of missiles that threaten to annihilate everything they’ve worked for. Punk’s Force is a gripping tale of loyalty, betrayal, and the relentless pursuit of excellence. As Punk navigates the storm of treachery and innovation, he learns that in the face of unprecedented threats, it is the human connection and teamwork that ultimately lead to victory. Join Punk and his allies in this thrilling installment, where every decision can mean the difference between survival and destruction, and the future of naval warfare hangs by a thread. Will they rise to the occasion and secure their legacy, or will they be lost to the tides of technology? The answer awaits in Punk’s Force."

The Man From Blood Gulch

"They call him Ghost. A hard man with a hard past, Garret 'Ghost' McCoy will never forget the day his family was brutally attacked by vicious marauders. It forced him to grow up fast, get tough even faster, and sharpen every skill to survive—by gun, by knife, or by fist. A true loner and silent stalker, Ghost is the kind of no-nonsense bounty hunter who always gets his man. Dead or alive. But it's only a matter of time before his reputation catches up with him—in a dusty dead-end town called Coyote Flats . . . It starts with a killing. Three murderous cattle rustlers with a bounty on their heads reach the end of the line on the streets of Coyote Flats—where Ghost guns them down in a shootout. Impressed by the bounty hunter's gun skills, the leader of a local outlaw gang makes Ghost an offer he can't refuse. But Ghost refuses anyway. Which ticks off the outlaw—and draws the attention of another leader of another outlaw gang. Like it or not, Ghost is stuck in the middle of a gang war between two fierce rivals. But there's something about the second gang that's different. Something familiar . . . They're the marauders who killed Ghost's family. And now they're about to get Ghosted."

What We Tried to Bury Grows Here

"In late 1936, eighteen-year-old Isidro Elejalde leaves his Basque village in Northern Spain, spurred to join the fight to preserve his country's democracy from the insurrectionists by the rousing words of a political essayist. Months earlier, Spanish generals launched a military coup to overthrow Spain's newly elected left-wing government. They assumed the population would welcome the coup, but throughout the country people like Isidro remained loyal to the ideals of democracy, and the Spanish Civil War began in bloody earnest. In Bilbao, Mariana raises her two young children while, with her writing, she decries the fascist-backed coup attempt and their German and Italian allies. As the Nationalist forces assault the country, Mariana and Isidro's lives intersect fleetingly, yet in meaningful and lasting ways. Through a chorus of voices we follow Isidro and Mariana as they struggle to maintain their humanity in a country determined to tear itself apart. Julian Zabalbeascoa is a fierce and assured new talent, and What We Tried to Bury Grows Here is a remarkable feat of research and imagination, as well as a transcendent literary accomplishment."

Ten Sleep

"Jordan Peele's Nope meets True Grit in Nicholas Belardes’s Ten Sleep, a supernatural modern-day western about a trio of young people on a 10-day cattle drive that leads them through a canyon haunted by ancient mysteries and savage beasts who existed long before humankind. A young Mexican American woman detects uncanny creatures stalking her on a cattle drive toward a canyon soaked in blood in an unforgettable novel, brilliantly infusing the modern Western with spine-chilling horror … When Greta Molina’s old friend Tiller offered her the job, a ten-day cattle drive across the Wyoming prairie from the ranching town of Ten Sleep, it sounded like a well-paid break. Three hundred and twenty cows and calves, two guys her age she’s known since college, and a few long days on an ATV will give her time to sort out the mess in her head. The canyon along the trail has a history, sure, but nature has a tendency toward violence. Greta can accept that, even if it makes her insides squirm. What Greta doesn’t know is the legacy of murder and rot that runs deep into the rocks of this land. As each night passes on the prairie, the trio faces mounting supernatural dangers: a ghost train of the damned, wild animals walking alongside dead ones—and evidence of a gigantic creature in the skies, one that’s supposedly been extinct for eons. And Tiller may be hiding even darker secrets the further they go. Safety is only ten sleeps away, but Greta soon realizes that may be too long for all of them to survive. Nicholas Belardes’s Ten Sleep is a fresh portrayal of the American West for fans of Catriona Ward, Victor LaValle and Jordan Peele’s Nope, by a rising star in horror."
