Demain, dans une ville du Caire secouée par les attentats terroristes et les tremblements de terre, Blaine Ramsey, prospecteur d'images pour le compte d'une importante compagnie publicitaire, fait sans arret le même reve : Une jeune femme d'une beauté surnaturelle, Aïda, lui apparaît, et lui demande de venir l'aider. En fait, il s'avère qu'elle est la plus grande star du cinéma égyptien, et qu'elle réside dans une tour aussi haute que Babel autrefois, à l'abri des cris du peuple, de sa misère, et de la révolte qui gronde. Mais qui est-elle vraiment, et pourquoi lui apparaît-elle ? Un livre étonnant, original. A la fois un grand récit de mystère et de science-fiction, mais, avant tout, une magnifique histoire d'amour, entre « Les mille et une nuits » et « Blade Runner ».

The master Sorcerer Belgarath and his daughter Polgara the arch-Sorceress were on the trail of the Orb, seeking to regain its saving power before the final disaster prophesized by the legends. And with them went Garion, a simple farm boy only months before, but now the focus of the struggle. He had never believed in sorcery and wanted no part of it. Yet with every league they traveled, the power grew in him, forcing him to acts of wizardry he could not accept."BELGARIAD is exactly the kind of fantasy I like. It has magic, adventure, humor, mystery, and a certain delightful human insight."=PIERS ANTHONY=

The Orb protecting the West from the evil God Torak was regained and the quest was nearing its end. Or so Garion thought. But the Prophecy still held future surprises for Garion--and the little princess Ce'Nedra.

In 1558, Kingsbridge Cathedral witnesses a city divided by religious conflict as England's power shifts between Catholics and Protestants. Amidst this turmoil, Ned Willard aspires to marry Margery Fitzgerald, but their love is tested when they find themselves on opposing sides of the conflict. Ned joins Princess Elizabeth's service, and when she ascends to the throne, England faces hostility from all of Europe. Determined to protect her reign, Elizabeth establishes the first secret service to thwart assassination plots and invasions. Over the next fifty years, Ned and Margery's love appears doomed as extremism leads to violence across the continent. Elizabeth's commitment to her principles is upheld by a small group of spies and agents who navigate the treacherous landscape. The true conflict lies not in the rival religions but between those who champion tolerance and those who impose their beliefs by force. Set against a backdrop of revolutionary change, this narrative is one of Ken Follett's most ambitious works, captivating both long-time fans and newcomers alike.
