"Long live the King" hailed Entertainment Weekly upon the publication of Stephen King's On Writing. Part memoir, part master class by one of the bestselling authors of all time, this superb volume is a revealing and practical view of the writer's craft, comprising the basic tools of the trade every writer must have. King's advice is grounded in his vivid memories from childhood through his emergence as a writer, from his struggling early career to his widely reported near-fatal accident in 1999 -- and how the inextricable link between writing and living spurred his recovery. Brilliantly structured, friendly and inspiring, On Writing will empower and entertain everyone who reads it -- fans, writers, and anyone who loves a great story well told. (back cover)

The New York Museum of Natural History receives their pilfered gem collection back ... ground down to dust. Diogenes, the psychotic killer who stole them in Dance of Death, is throwing down the gauntlet to both the city and to his brother, FBI Agent Pendergast, who is currently incarcerated in a maximum security prison. To quell the PR nightmare of the gem fiasco, the museum decides to reopen the Tomb of Senef. An astounding Egyptian temple, it was a popular museum exhibit until the 1930s, when it was quietly closed. But when the tomb is unsealed in preparation for its gala reopening, the killings--and whispers of an ancient curse--begin again. And the catastrophic opening itself sets the stage for the final battle between the two brothers: an epic clash from which only one will emerge alive.

Behind the gates of a fabulous Hamptons estate, FBI Special Agent Pendergast comes upon the carnage of a gruesome crime: one that recalls the legendary horrors that befall those who make a Faustian pact with the devil. Surrounded by the choking stench of brimstone, the smoldering remains of art critic Jeremy Grove are found in a locked, barricaded attic next to a hoofprint singed into the floorboards. Unable to resist a case that defies all but supernatural logic, Pendergast reunites with police officers Vincent D'Agosta (Relic) and Laura Hayward (Reliquary) to search for a more earthly explanation. But their investigation soon takes them from the luxury estates of Long Island and penthouses of New York City to the crumbling, legend-shrouded castles of the Italian countryside, where thirty years ago four men conjured up something unspeakable. . .

Pulsando las teclas con dedos temblorosos, Ted accedió a la base de datos consultada en la biblioteca. Esta vez, se saltó la búsqueda por síntomas y fue directamente al archivo ‘Peste’: "Existen tres formas de enfermedad, todas provocadas por un mismo microbio. En la forma bubónica, los primeros síntomas incluyen fiebre, dolor de cabeza e hinchazón leve de los ganglios linfáticos, especialmente en el cuello y la entrepierna. Sin tratamiento, la enfermedad progresa rápidamente hacia síntomas más graves, como marcada hinchazón de los nódulos linfáticos con hemorragia en los tejidos circundantes." Ted se palpó el cuello, dudando de lo que su instinto ya consideraba seguro. Continuó leyendo: "Si no se trata, la peste bubónica puede convertirse en peste neumónica, donde las bacterias invaden el sistema respiratorio, volviéndose altamente contagiosa." Fuera de sí, Ted calculó que su malestar había comenzado unas cuarenta y ocho horas atrás. Cerró los ojos, apoyándose en su asiento, sintiendo cómo su corazón bombeaba sangre cargada de bacterias. Alucinante, pensó. Estamos en el siglo XXI, no en la Edad Media. ¿Cómo ha podido suceder? ¿Qué ocurre cuando la peste bubónica, ausente durante tanto tiempo, reaparece en la sociedad moderna? La historia presenta dos relatos paralelos: en el siglo XIV, el médico Alejandro Canches escapa de la ejecución por realizar una autopsia y recorre la Europa de la Peste Negra, siendo finalmente enviado
