Six short sci-fi chapters from the giants who create universes to those seeking an answer. Snowfields, invisible monsters that are as big as a freight train, a snow world with a pulsar star and all the gold one could imagine, the old west as you've never seen it. A blackhole sucking the life from a giant red sun, and those who worship them as Gods. More action, and twists to this little collection and a tie-in to the original sci-fi by Sebar entitled "SOL".
Kenna, an aspirational teen guru, wanders destitute across the stars as he tries to achieve his parents’ ambition to advise the celestial elite. Everything changes when Kenna wins a free dinner at The Sol Majestic, the galaxy’s most renown restaurant, giving him access to the cosmos’s one-percent. His dream is jeopardised, however, when he learns his highly-publicized “free meal” risks putting The Sol Majestic into financial ruin. Kenna and a motley gang of newfound friends - including a teleporting celebrity chef, a trust-fund adrenaline junkie, an inept apprentice, and a brilliant mistress of disguise - must concoct an extravagant scheme to save everything they cherish. In doing so, Kenna may sacrifice his ideals - or learn even greater lessons about wisdom, friendship, and love. Utterly charming and out of this world, The Sol Majestic is will satisfy the appetites of sci-fi aficionados and newcomers alike.

Es el recuerdo imborrable de un amor perdido al que se dedica toda una vida, sin que nada ni nadie consiga borrarlo. Lo mismo que Gaspara Stampa pero con m s desgarro, la autora se confiesa en unos poemas sentidos como si los viviera y les imprime una fuerza que unida al sentimiento los hace inolvidables.
El sol tambi n parti relata la vida de unos personajes que tienen que luchar a pecho abierto con los avatares y la miseria de las sociedades que los vieron crecer. El destino, como una l nea trazada, marca el camino de dos j venes que tienen que huir de su tierra para escapar de la infamia del racismo y la barbarie. A medio de camino, cuando ya creen que todos los obst culos han sido salvados y que la vida les sonreir junto a los v stagos y a los amigos, nuevamente el azar juega sus cartas y de nuevo tienen que enfrentarse a las aves oscuras del odio y la perversi n. Con bien cuidada prosa y en un estilo reposado, Francisco Sandoval logra introducir al lector en un ambiente s rdido, lleno de paisajes y colores fuertes, vivos. El sol tambi n parti es una historia donde lo real y lo fictivo se unen y cobran vida para hablarnos del Caribe, esas tierras donde la gente lucha de sol a sol por la luz, por la paz y el amor. Una historia de la cual ning n lector saldr ileso.
When Rab was a baby, his mother made a decision which would change his life. She feared he would be sent to work in the hellish mines of Mercury, to eke out his life until he was worn out, all in the name of maintaning the defense of the Solar Sytem. But when her desperate attempt to flee with her 2 year old failed, she took a desperate step to save him. She cut off his hand.Decades later, Rab has been spared the physical hardships he can no longer endure, and is now based on the Mask, the all-encompassing structure which hides the Solar Sytem from alien eyes. And it is during his watch that a spaceship arrives, one which has travelled for a hundred years from a long-forgotten colony planet. If they pierce the Mask, everything humanity has created will be left open to the alien threat. But this strange ship, bearing an offshoot of the species, may bring something else with them. Hope.
