Redécouvrez le monde fantastique des dieux et des mortels, à travers le regard d’Hadès. Hadès, le dieu des Enfers, est connu pour sa règle inflexible, ses luxueuses boîtes de nuit et ses marchandages impossibles. Habitué à tout contrôler, il n’est pas préparé à découvrir que les Parques ont choisi Perséphone, déesse du Printemps, pour être sa future épouse et reine. Malgré son attirance pour le dieu, Perséphone, une ambitieuse étudiante en journalisme, est déterminée à dénoncer Hadès pour ses méthodes cruelles et impitoyables. Elle le défie à chaque instant, alors même que l’attraction entre eux explose. Hadès se retrouve face à l’impossible : prouver que sa future épouse a tort. Malgré ses efforts, certaines forces souhaitent les séparer et Hadès se rend compte qu’il est prêt à tout pour son amour interdit, même à défier le destin.

L'auteur à succès Scarlett St. Clair nous offre une interprétation sombre et captivante du mythe grec d'Hadès et Perséphone. Perséphone n'est la déesse du printemps qu'en titre. Depuis qu'elle est toute petite, les fleurs se ratatinent à son contact. Après s'être installée à New Athens, elle espérait mener une vie discrète, dans la peau d'une journaliste mortelle. Tout change lorsqu'elle s'assied dans une boîte de nuit clandestine pour jouer une partie de cartes avec un tranger hypnotique et mystérieux. Hadès, le dieu des morts, a bâti un empire du jeu dans le monde des mortels et ses paris favoris sont réputés impossibles. Mais rien ne l'a jamais intriguéautant que la déesse qui lui offre une aubaine laquelle il ne peut résister. Après sa rencontre avec Hadès, Perséphone se retrouve liée par un contrat avec le Dieu des morts, et ses conditions sont impossibles : Perséphone doit créer la vie dans le monde souterrain ou perdre sa liberté àjamais. Le pari ne se limite cependant pas à exposer l'échec de Perséphone en tant que déesse. Alors qu'elle s'efforce de semer les graines de sa liberté, son amour pour le Dieu des ténèbres grandit - un amour à la fois envoutant et interdit.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Pierce Brown’s relentlessly entertaining debut channels the excitement of The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins and Ender’s Game by Orson Scott Card. “Red Rising ascends above a crowded dys­topian field.”—USA Today ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR—Entertainment Weekly, BuzzFeed, Shelf Awareness “I live for the dream that my children will be born free,” she says. “That they will be what they like. That they will own the land their father gave them.” “I live for you,” I say sadly. Eo kisses my cheek. “Then you must live for more.” Darrow is a Red, a member of the lowest caste in the color-coded society of the future. Like his fellow Reds, he works all day, believing that he and his people are making the surface of Mars livable for future generations. Yet he toils willingly, trusting that his blood and sweat will one day result in a better world for his children. But Darrow and his kind have been betrayed. Soon he discovers that humanity reached the surface generations ago. Vast cities and lush wilds spread across the planet. Darrow—and Reds like him—are nothing more than slaves to a decadent ruling class. Inspired by a longing for justice, and driven by the memory of lost love, Darrow sacrifices everything to infiltrate the legendary Institute, a proving ground for the dominant Gold caste, where the next generation of humanity’s overlords struggle for power. He will be forced to compete for his life and the very future of civilization against the best and most brutal of Society’s ruling class. There, he will stop at nothing to bring down his enemies . . . even if it means he has to become one of them to do so. Praise for Red Rising “[A] spectacular adventure . . . one heart-pounding ride . . . Pierce Brown’s dizzyingly good debut novel evokes The Hunger Games, Lord of the Flies, and Ender’s Game. . . . [Red Rising] has everything it needs to become meteoric.”—Entertainment Weekly “Ender, Katniss, and now Darrow.”—Scott Sigler “Red Rising is a sophisticated vision. . . . Brown will find a devoted audience.”—Richmond Times-Dispatch Don’t miss any of Pierce Brown’s Red Rising Saga: RED RISING • GOLDEN SON • MORNING STAR • IRON GOLD • DARK AGE • LIGHT BRINGER

This book, in two volumes, contains an annotated English translation of the História da Ethiópia by the Spanish Jesuit missionary priest Pedro Páez (Pêro Pais in Portuguese), 1564-1622, who worked in the Portuguese padroado missions, first in India and then in Ethiopia, long thought to be the kingdom of the legendary Prester John. His history of Ethiopia was written in Portuguese in the last ten years of his life and survives in only two manuscripts. The translation, by Christopher J. Tribe, is based on the new critical edition of the Portuguese text by Isabel Boavida, Hervé Pennec and Manuel João Ramos, which was published in Lisbon in 2008. They are also the editors of this English version. The History of Ethiopia is an essential source for several areas of study - from the history of the Catholic missions in that country and the relations between the European religious orders, to the history of art and religions; from the history of geographical exploration to the ideological contextualization of the Ethiopian kingdom; from material culture to Abyssinian political and territorial administration; and from an analysis of local circumstances to changes in human ecology in the Horn of Africa and the Indian Ocean. It is a repository of empirical knowledge on the political geography, religion, customs, flora and fauna of Ethiopia. It combines travel narrative with a historico-ethnographic monograph, and is a chronicle of the activities of Jesuit missionaries in their Ethiopian mission. It also reworks a wide variety of documents, including the first translations into a European language of a number of Ethiopian literary texts, from royal chronicles to hagiographies. It complements other early accounts of Ethiopia by Ludovico de Varthema, Francisco Alvares, Castanhoso, Bermudez, Arnold von Harff, Manoel de Almeida, Bahrey, Alessandro Zorzi, Jerónimo Lobo and Václav Prutky, all published by The Hakluyt Society.
