La séptima entrega de «Las aventuras del capitán Alatriste». Cruza el puente de los Asesinos con Arturo Pérez-Reverte y vive la trepidante conspiración para asesinar al dogo de Venecia. Nápoles, Roma y Milán son algunos escenarios de esta nueva aventura del capitán Alatriste. Acompañado del joven Íñigo Balboa, a Alatriste le ordenan intervenir en una conjura crucial para la corona española: un golpe de mano en Venecia para asesinar al dogo durante la misa de Navidad del año 1627, e imponer por la fuerza un gobierno favorable a la corte del rey católico en ese estado de Italia. Para Alatriste y sus camaradas -el veterano Sebastián Copons y el peligroso moro Gurriato, entre otros-, la misión se presenta difícil, arriesgada y llena de sorpresas. Suicida, tal vez; pero no imposible. «Diego Alatriste bajó del carruaje y miró en torno, desconfiado. Tenía por sana costumbre, antes de entrar en un sitio incierto, establecer por dónde iba a irse, o intentarlo, si las cosas terminaban complicándose. El billete que le ordenada acompañar al hombre de negro estaba firmado por el sargento mayor del tercio de Nápoles, y no admitía discusión alguna; pero nada más se aclaraba en él.» ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Follow Arturo Pérez-Reverte's audacious characters in a new and exciting adventure. Cross the Assassin's Bridge and become a part of the quest to assassinate the Doge of Venice. Naples, Rome, and Milan are some of the backdrops in Captain Alatriste's latest exploit. Accompanied by young Íñigo Balboa, Alatriste is given orders to intervene in a conspiracy critical to the Spanish Crown--a swift attack to assassinate the Doge of Venice during the Christmas Mass and to forcibly place a new head of government more conducive to the Catholic King's interests in this Italian region. For Alatriste and his comrades--veteran soldier Sebastián Copons and the dangerous Moor Gurriato, among others--, the mission rapidly becomes difficult, risky and full of surprises. Suicidal certainly, but not impossible.Shipping Notes

Draws You in to the Series
Format: Paperback
The Stonekeeper is the first volume in Kazu Kibuishi's graphic novel series. Although aimed at middle school, it is good for upper elementary school children, and is enjoyable for adults as well. 2 years after the death of Emily and Navin's father in a tragic car crash, Karen moves her children to the family's old house in a dense forest. Built by Karen's grandfather Silas who then disappeared, it has been abandoned for years. During the first night, they hear a strange noise, and Karen is captured by an Arachnopod, a creature from a parallel world, Alledia. Emily and Navin follow their mother into the parallel world where they find their ailing great-grandfather Silas. He tells Emily about the power of the amulet she found in his house. It is the key to ruling Alledia. Silas expires, but not before instructing his robot and animal minions to aid Emily and Navin. This first volume, besides setting the story arc, narrates the rescue of Karen. Unfortunately, she is poisoned setting up the next volume for finding the antidote.
Besides an engaging story with compelling characters, Kibuishi is a fantastic illustrator. As with many exemplar graphic novels the spare text is amplified and much of the story told through his illustrations. The creatures of Alledia are strange enough to pique our imagination, but not so much that they are totally alien in form.
After reading Stonekeeper, I am eager to see what happens next with Emily and Navin, and their company.

wow
Format: Paperback
I remember when I read in reviews that kids had gotten sucked into this story and had become fans of this series so quickly.... Well, my daughter resisted till page 13 or 14... but since then she's in it... She's very picky when it is about books and even that she's 9, she started to read in English only a few months ago ( we lived abroad,she reads other language) so she still prefers books that is easy to read.
Anyway, get ready, this series is addicted... gooooood :) that is what we need :)
I mean, you can complain that this is a comic book but still, at least the child has the book in his/her hand and not a tablet... and at least he/she reads...
I'm really happy that I got this book for her.

Wonderful Story, But Small Print
Format: Paperback, Format: Paperback
My son really likes this book. He usually doesn’t enjoy reading much, but this one caught his interest right away. The illustrations are great, and the story is engaging too. He finished the book in just two days! I already bought the second one and am thinking about getting the whole series.
The only thing I didn’t like was the size of the letters. It wasn’t very easy for my 9-year-old to read on his own, and sometimes I had to help him.

Shockingly good Little Golden Book
Format: Hardcover
Yeah, this is a Little Golden Book, but in many ways it seems more like something that would be a special addition to a boxed set of the 1980's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cartoon series. It's written as if April O'Neil is talking to the reader directly and it gives a pretty good overview of each of the turtles and their personalities/roles, how the turtles and splinter became mutants, who their enemies are, and references a few reoccurring characters from the series. My kids have been watching a lot of the original series lately and they loved this book. It also wasn't tedious for me to read and wasn't overly long as some of these tv books are.
If you have a kid that is a fan of the original series, this is a great pickup. If you know someone who grew up on this series and maybe collects some of the original Turtles stuff, this could be a fun little gift for them to add to their collection
