  • Ready Player One by Ernest Cline
    Ready Player One by Ernest Cline Chapter 1 Everyone my age remembers where they were and what they were doing when they first heard about the contest. I was sitting in my hideout watching cartoons when the news bulletin broke in on my video feed, announcing that James Halliday had died during the night. I’d heard of Halliday, of course. Everyone had. He was the videogame designer responsible for creating the OASIS, a massively multiplayer online game that had gradually evolved into the globally networked virtual reality most of humanity now used on a daily basis. The unprecedented success of the OASIS had made Halliday one of the wealthiest people in the world. At first, I couldn’t understand why the media was making such a big deal of the billionaire’s death. After all, the people of Planet Earth had other concerns. The ongoing energy crisis. Catastrophic climate change. Widespread famine, poverty, and disease. Half a dozen wars. You know: “dogs and cats living together … mass hysteria!” Normally, the newsfeeds didn’t interrupt everyone’s interactive sitcoms and soap operas unless something really major had happened. Like the outbreak of some new killer virus, or another major city vanishing in a mushroom cloud. Big stuff like that. As famous as he was, Halliday’s death should have warranted only a brief segment on the evening news, so the unwashed masses could shake their heads in envy when the newscasters announced the obscenely large amount of money that would be doled out to the rich man’s heirs. 2 But that was the rub.

  • Monstress Volume 1 by Author, Marjorie Liu Reviewed By: Jake 16 Star Teen Book Reviewer of Be the Star You Are! Charity
    Monstress Volume 1 By Author, Marjorie Liu Reviewed by: Jake 16 Star Teen Book Reviewer of Be the Star You Are! Charity www.bethestaryouare.orG Maika Halfwolf, a seventeen-year-old girl, is a mysterious key player in an ongoing war. The war is between Arcanics, a race of magical creatures and the Cumea, an order of witches who consume Arcanics for power. Maika is a human-passing Arcanic, who is missing an arm and branded with a strange sideways eye symbol on her chest. Captured by slavers, she is sold to a witch called Sophie and brought to one of the witches’ compounds. Unlike other Arcanics, Maika possesses a strange and unreliable power that seems to unlock locks. Maika manages to escape her chains thanks to her powers, and by travelling through the witches’ compound, information is revealed about her past and powers. Maika’s story is a great look at the quest for power and the struggle to survive. The first installment of Marjorie Liu’s graphic novel series wonderfully blends her dark fantasy story with Sana Takeda’s beautiful art. The series has also won numerous awards, including the British Fantasy Awards, the Eisner Awards, the Harvey Awards, and the Hugo Awards. This series is geared towards a mature audience, as it incorporates themes of war, slavery, dehumanization, and survival to create a gripping tale. Further depictions of death, rape, partial nudity, and child slavery are also triggering content. Maika’s bravery, and tale of survival is simultaneously bleak and inspiring. Her journey humanizes those who have survived a war, while also commenting on the trauma that results from such an experience.

En cinco entregas, Giménez nos ofrecerá su obra cumbre en la que su arte y, sobre todo, su capacidad de análisis del alma humana, nos ofrece un impresionante fresco de quién fue José González, Pepe.
