Ya están a la venta dos nuevas novelas cortas de la colección de Tor.com. Se trata de The Last Witness, de K.J. Parker (que ya he tenido la oportunidad de leer y recomiendo encarecidamente) y de Of Sorrow and Such, de Angela Slatter. Éstas son sus sinopsis:
The Last Witness, K.J. ParkerWhen you need a memory to be wiped, call me.
Transferring unwanted memories to my own mind is the only form of magic I've ever mastered. But now, I'm holding so many memories I'm not always sure which ones are actually mine, any more.
Some of them are sensitive; all of them are private. And there are those who are willing to kill to access the secrets I'm trying to bury...
A classic Parker tale with a strong supporting cast of princes, courtiers, merchants, academics, and generally unsavory people.
Of Sorrow and Such, Angela SlatterMistress Gideon is a witch. The locals of Edda's Meadow, if they suspect it of her, say nary a word-Gideon has been good to them, and it's always better to keep on her good side. Just in case.
When a foolish young shapeshifter goes against the wishes of her pack, and gets herself very publicly caught, the authorities find it impossible to deny the existence of the supernatural in their midst any longer; Gideon and her like are captured, bound for torture and a fiery end.
Should Gideon give up her sisters in return for a quick death? Or can she turn the situation to her advantage?
