Aill is the name of a small Irish village where some peculiar neighbours live. Brian McNeill is the best example: he is twelve years old, has bowl-cut hair and every morning he must pick 7 stones from the beach before going to school. It has to be 7 stones.

María Corredera (Málaga, 1985) works as an illustrator for textbooks, children’s fiction and roleplaying games. She tries to adapt to the needs of each text she has in hand, among other things, because if she always did the same thing she thinks she would be bored out of her skull. Sometimes she also makes silly comics and rotoscopes. She likes to embroider and sing polyphony.

Ada is special. Her parents have always told her that she is a fairy whose wing was broken at birth and that is why she is missing an arm. When she was little she believed it and now that she is about to turn eleven, although she doesn’t believe it, she thinks it’s such a beautiful story that she lets them keep telling the story and keep asking them questions so that they can invent more and more details about her birth. But this birthday is special. She is going to celebrate it at a camp she will attend with the school and she might discover the whole truth about fairies.

Chiki Fabregat (Madrid, 1969) is the daughter of a children’s book writer. She grew up listening to stories in which she and her sibilings were the main characters.

In her illustrations, she pays special attention to the visual narrative and the expressiveness of the characters, with a taste for detail.

A group of ten troubled youths, supervised by their mentor Ramón, set off to a mountain camp to discover some weeks later that the world has been ravaged by a deadly virus. After Ramón fails to return from seeking help, they are forced to organize themselves to survive. At first, collaboration and empathy prevail, but despite being aware that they need each other and that altruism will always be the best option, egos, aggression, and selfishness begin to wreak havoc. The situation worsens with the arrival of winter and as the season progresses, so does the fragile equilibrium within the group, splintering into two subgroups marked by clandestine alliances and heart-wrenching betrayals that finally lead to near extinction. Only one couple remains, Eva and Nando, who will have to rely on each other, suggesting a new beginning.

My name is Albert. I began to suspect that my parents were monsters long before I met Berta Vogler. I probably fooled myself throughout that time. No one in their right mind would have been happy to grow up with bloodthirsty parents. So I tried to ignore certain details of my family DNA until Erik Vogler appeared in my life and contributed to question my nature and my own origins. Although if it hadn’t been for him, maybe I wouldn’t have discovered the demons around me.

Total confinement, the world paralyzed and the feeling of being in a prison with a life sentence: This is how our main character, whose name we will not know, lives and feels the outbreak of the pandemic. His father is in a coma, sick with COVID; his mother cries with fear and helplessness, and his little sister just claims to continue with his daily life. Overwhelmed by circumstances, our young character only finds relief in writing letters to his secret love: his beloved A. In these letters, which he does not send, he narrates his daily day-to-day life in these new circumstances, with an honest voice, balancing what is really important in life, the sense of existence, the need of a collective support or the individual freedom versus authority and disregard. Such Camus did in The Plague, a book that, by the way, he is struggling read.

He has developed his professional career in the worlds of culture and football, and has been Project Manager of the Athletic Club Foundation since 2008. He is the author of several novels and essays.

The young boy will only meet his powerful grandfather at the age of sixteen, at his father’s funeral. This is also how he will meet his clever and charming cousin, Eileen, to whom he feels madly attracted.

But meeting these two people will change Jonathan’s future forever. He, a clever and educated boy but used to living in the countryside, will have to discover and face his unknown rich and powerful family heritage, especially after his grandfather’s death: Secrets, crimes, mysteries, brawls, jealousy, envy, alliances, losses and loves will suddenly become the plot of the major adventure of his life.

The successful publication of rapper and Youtuber Pibonacci’s first novel brought not only satisfaction to its author, but also a libel suit! But what was the connection between the story of an antique dealer and a circus mentalist, which was the plot of the novel, and the founding of the claimant’s empire? Why does he feel so offended and a victim of slander? Is there any truth to that outlandish plot?

Lawyers, detectives, publishers and some fragments of Pibonacci’s novel will drive us to unravel, step by step, a mysterious plot made of many layers.

Fernando Lalana was born in Zaragoza more than 50 years ago and is a Pisces. As a child he wanted to be an architect. As a grown up, an actor in the theatre. In the meantime he studied Law and finally chose writing instead. He made this decision on February 20th 1985, at 9.15 pm when they tell him that “El Zulo”, his debut novel had just won the Gran Angular award. Since then, he’s devoted exclusively to writing. To date he has published more than 100 books, has 2.5 million readers and has won a plethora of prizes including the National award for Children’s and Young Adult literature. In 2010, he was honoured with the prestigious award  Cervantes chico, for all his literary career.

A STORY OF ADVENTURE AND LEARNING, TWELVE ALONE IS A CROSSROAD BETWEEN THE MARTIAN AND HARRY POTTER. AN EXTRAORDINARY SCIENCE FICTION THAT BRINGS THE DETAILS OF AN ASTRONAUT’S CAREER TO YOUNG AUDIENCE.

When the space shuttle Sila V takes off for the far reaches of the Solar System, it does so with the wrong crew: twelve teenagers. The boys and girls, selected by WASA (the future NASA) to promote the Lunae 2 mission, come from twelve different countries and have very different social backgrounds. Faced with the impossibility of turning around, and during the two years of the trip, they will have to live in a framework of isolation and multiple difficulties, such as the demands of a hard training, the low gravity or the unknown reasons of their unexpected take-off.

At a certain point, the twelve have split up. Six remain in the Solar System and the other six end up through a wormhole on a planet in the star Fomalhaut (“Whale’s Mouth” in Arabic), an extraordinary place that hides the secrets of the civilisation that created the egg ship: the Tubulars. In their attempt to undo what happened, the two groups go through experiences that will affect the future of humanity.

Amaya García Arregui (Barcelona, 1988). Daughter of a copyeditor and the Spanish writer Javier García Sánchez, she grew up in a literary environment. She studied contemporary dance and Humanities in Madrid, did a Master’s degree in Hispanic Studies at the Université Sorbonne-Nouvelle (Paris), and later obtained a doctorate in History of Medicine at the Autonomous University of Barcelona.

Alberto Mínguez Espallargas (Seville, 1979) is Professor of Algebra and Number Theory at the University of Vienna. He has also taught in cities such as Paris (École Normale Supérieure and Sorbonne Université), Shanghai (New York University) or Mbour (AIMS-Senegal). He is editor of the journal Monatshefte.

Human beings are obsessed with the future. We can all see ourselves in ten or twenty years’ time doing whatever. But the future has its own rules. Nothing happens as planned. How many stories end differently to what we expect? How many broken dreams get lost in the way? How many plans end in nothing? A half? A third? Only 10%? What happens to the rest? Are we lucky enough? How do we measure luck? There are no statistics about it, but it happens all the time, everywhere, to all kinds of people. It is an invisible statistic to which we all belong to. Also the characters of this Saga.

1. El clan de la loba / The She-Wolf Clan

Since immemorial times, the Omar witches clan’s have been living hidden from the terrible Odish and looking forward to the arrival of the prophecy chosen one. Now the stars confirm the time is near. Anaíd, who has lived her fourteen years old away in a lost village in the Pyrenees, is unaware of the secrets concerning the women of her family… Until the mysterious disappearance of her mother, Selene the red-haired, brings her face to face with a truth as chilling as unbelievable, and forces her to travel a long road full of dangers and discoveries.

2. El desierto de hielo / The Ice Desert

The prophecy has come true and the clans of the Omar witches hope that Anaid, the chosen one with the hair of fire who holds the scepter of power, puts an end to the bloody Odish witches. But Anaid is just 15 years old, in love and more vulnerable than ever to the dangers hounding her, which force her to flee with her mother. Throughout this desperate journey, Anaid will disentangle the dark legend woven about Selene during her wild and rebellious youth, and she will learn about her background: forged in the hardness of ice, daughter of the snow, sister of the bear.

3. La maldición de Odi / The Curse of Odi

The war of the witches is drawing near and the chosen one can no longer postpone the moment to wield the sceptre and destroy the terrifying Odish. But Anaíd, who yearns for Roc’s love, as well as the love of the father she never had, believes she can finally bring peace to the Omar’s witches. Yet she will have to face betrayal, rejection by her own people and loneliness. Odi’s curse has been fulfilled: the Chosen one has made mistakes, she has succumbed to the power of the sceptre and even dead claim their tribute. It is the moment of the truth, of the definitive battle between Omar and Odish.

Demeter, the Amorgos oracle child, is unaware of the extent of her magic powers until her fame attracts the curiosity of Ate, one of the strongest Odish witches. From that moment, the hate against witchery and women, always latent in villages, flares up on the small Greek island and destroys her childhood.

Despite Ate, the island superstitions and her own clan, young Demeter refuses to obey the dictates of terror. Her recklessness lightens up the legend of the silver wolf, a hope for rebellious Omar witches.

Life in the past could be very complicated and danger was always around. Surviving in Ancient Rome, Prehistory, Ancient Egypt or the Middle Ages could be much harder than the last screen of a video game.

El Fisgón Histórico unravels history with a mixture of rigour and fun that makes the reader feel like the main character. This is not your average classroom manual, but a guide to survival in the past. How would you build a hunting tool in prehistoric times? What kind of gladiator would you be in Ancient Rome? What places would you avoid if you woke up in the Middle Ages?

El Fisgón Histórico (The History Snoop) (Vélez-Málaga, 1986) is the artistic name of Juan de Aragón, an illustrator devoted to making history popular among younger and not so young people. He studied at the San Telmo School of Arts, and since then he hasn’t put down his pencil. He has published several graphic novels, such as the successful HeroínassecretasdelahistoriadeEspaña(Plan B) and Viaje porlasciudadesperdidas (La Galera).
