Ebook en oferta: The Rithmatist, de Brandon Sanderson

Además de El aliento de los dioses, se puede adquirir hoy otro ebook de Brandon Sanderson a precio reducido. Se trata de la novela juvenil The Rithmatist, que en Amazon España tiene en estos momentos un precio promocional de 1,78€ (cuidado, porque hay dos ediciones distintas y sólo una de ellas está rebajada). Reseñé este novela el año pasado (y no me entusiasmó demasiado).  

Ésta es la sinopsis del libro:
This is a fast-paced adventure for readers of all ages by bestselling author Brandon Sanderson, master of fantasy fiction. Here, in a school for the magically gifted, your talent could cost you your life . . . 
Young student Joel is fascinated by the magic of Rithmatics, but few have the gift and he is not one of them. Undaunted, Joel persuades Professor Fitch to teach him about this geometric magic. For although Joel can't infuse his protective lines and circles with power, or bring his chalk-drawn creatures to life, he can really understand how it works. However, a daunting test lies ahead, when someone starts kidnapping top Rithmatic students at his school, Armedius Academy. 
Since he's not a magic user, Joel appears to be safe and he's desperate to investigate and prove himself. Then people start dying - but can Joel really stop a killer alone? He'll need the help of Rithmatist apprentice Melody, as even more students disappear. Together, they must race to find clues before the killer notices them – and takes them out too. 
The Rithmatist is a New York Times bestseller and will be enjoyed by adult and young adult readers alike. The book features illustrations by Ben McSweeney, which depict the magical elements of the novel with great elegance and insight.
