Quien haya le do la c lebre novela del escritor estadounidense Ira Levin. "El beb de Rosemary", entender mejor el desarrollo de Adri n. Ya que sta es la continuaci n de la novela escrita por dicho autor y que culmina con el nacimiento del beb . Pero Ira Levin no continu la historia, (coherente) con una segunda novela sobre el desarrollo de la ni ez y madurez del reci n nacido. El autor de Adri n entendi que la historia ya contada ten a motivo suficiente para hacer una segunda parte, y que sta, deb a seguir la direcci n descrita por Ira Levin en su primera novela. Obviamente esto es subjetivo, ya que la historia podr a haber ido por caminos muy diferentes a la que se cre en la obra Adri n. Pero el autor en este caso, sigui la ficci n respetando los tiempos y los personajes de la obra original, y que a su entender conforman una segunda parte claramente coherente con la primera.

"A Vampire's Thirst: Dark, Dangerous, and Undeniable In his two thousand years on earth, Adrian, a day-walking vampire, has seen it all and done it all, and it's left him jaded and aloof. He governs every aspect of his private life with an iron will, but his control is threatened when he begins suffering from a mysterious thirst wreaking havoc on his mind and body to the point that he fears for his sanity. Lavinia, a werewolf half-breed, longs for stability, something she's never known after a childhood spent on the run from purist shifters intent on ending her kind. When she finally believes her life is set on the right path, her roommate is savagely murdered, and Lavinia is thrown into a nightmare of hellish proportions. On the night of the Directive's Masquerade Gala, the thirst plaguing Adrian irresistibly draws him to Lavinia, like a moth to the flame. It's an encounter that changes their fates forever. Fleeing her enemies, Adrian and Lavinia fight for their lives while the fiery sparks of their passion threaten to burn them to cinders. Monica La Porta brings you another story in A K Michaels' brand-new world, A Vampire's Thirst, full of hot as hades alpha males in this smoking paranormal romance story."

Maxim Grigorievs nya stora roman är en Stockholmsskildring. Och en vänskapsroman, en bildningsroman, en konstnärsroman. En roman om en abort. En roman om åtrå. En roman om kärleken till litteraturen. Adrian, Kristian och Johannes möts i 20-årsåldern då de börjar studera litteraturvetenskap i Stockholm i början av 2000-talet. De tre vännerna tillbringar sin tid på universitetet och på Kafé Valand; de dricker punsch, går på klubben Metropolis och diskuterar litteratur. Adrian, den vackra tråkmånsen, som delvis växt upp i Ryssland och har sin mamma i en avlägsen förort, är en aspirerande poet med Gunnar Ekelöf som passion och förebild. När han och Kristian flyttar ihop i en andrahandslägenhet i Atlasområdet upptäcker Kristian till sin förvåning att han hyser ett starkt sexuellt begär till sin vän. Åren går: tjugofyra år. Ungdomsdrömmarna falnar. Adrian skriver på sitt diktverk medan Johannes och Kristian etablerar sina medelklassliv. Hans relation med den nihilistiska Elena, som kommit som flykting från Ukraina, är uppslitande - och dödsdömd. I sin ständiga ensamhet, lika stor i Berlin och på spanska solkusten som i Norrland, upplever Adrian att vännernas svek blir allt fler. Allt blandas samman till en sorgesång över ett liv som inte finns, som inte blev.
