Descubre a la reina más fascinante del Antiguo Egipto. Por el autor de los best sellers El ladrón de tumbas y La conjura del faraón.La novela que más de 300.000 lectores estaban esperando.
Esta es la historia de una mujer que desafió el orden establecido para convertirse en el faraón más poderoso de Egipto. Gobernó en el momento de máximo esplendor del país, cuando su ejército era el más fuerte del mundo y el reino disfrutaba de gran prosperidad. Y dejó un inmenso legado en forma de obras arquitectónicas que hoy en día nos siguen fascinando. Con rigor y un estilo tan mágico como el tiempo que retrata, Antonio Cabanas nos sumerge en su vida: su infancia, marcada por la influencia de su abuela Nefertary; su primera juventud, en la que sufrió la preeminencia de sus hermanos sobre ella; y su etapa posterior cuando, convencida de sus cualidades para gobernar, persiguió sus ambiciones con la ayuda del sacerdote y arquitecto real Senenmut. Él fue su cómplice en las intrigas palaciegas y juntos vivieron una apasionante historia de amor que ha trascendido hasta nuestros días. Una novela magistral en la que el Antiguo Egipto se despliega ante nuestros ojos en toda su grandeza a través de una de sus protagonistas más carismáticas. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Discover the most fascinating queen of Ancient Egypt by the author of best selling titles The Tomb Thief and The Conjure of the Pharaoh.
The novel that more than 300,000 readers have been waiting for.
This is the story of a woman who challenged all established norms to become the most powerful pharaoh in Egypt. She ruled at a time of the country's greatest glories, when her army was the strongest in the world, and the kingdom was enjoying great fortune. And she left an immense legacy in the form of architectural works that today continue to fascinate us.
With great precision and a style as magical as the time he narrates, Antonio Cabanas immerses us in her life: her childhood heavily marked by her grandmother Nefertary's influence; her early youth where she suffered her brothers' superiority over her; and her later years when, convinced of her qualities to govern, she pursued her ambitions with the help of the priest and royal architect Senenmut. He was her accomplice throughout all the palace secrecies and together they lived an exciting love story that has transcended to these days.
A master novel in which Ancient Egypt unfolds before our very eyes in all its grandeur through one of its most charismatic protagonists.

Doctor Aphra and Luke Skywalker - An Entertaining Duo!
Format: Paperback
I've greatly enjoyed the various Marvel Star Wars series, but Star Wars: Yoda's Secret War left me a little unsatisfied. I'm very happy to say that the next installment--Screaming Citadel--righted the course and returned the series to its high standard.
Of course, this volume is not just comprised of the Star Wars series. It also has issues from Doctor Aphra. Obviously, the two comics crossed over with each other to deliver this story as whole.
Doctor Aphra has an ancient crystal supposedly housing the sentience of a powerful Jedi. She needs the Queen of the Screaming Citadel to access it for her, and she needs Luke Skywalker to entice the queen into doing so. You'll have to read the book for the details on using Luke as bait. Doctor Aphra sells it to Luke as a chance for him to encounter an actual Jedi master, and it's a chance for her to witness a remnant of the ancient past because she is an archaeologist after all, albeit a bit of an immoral one.
That's a pretty good premise to achieve what this story is really all about--watching Luke and Aphra interact. I believe Doctor Aphra is one of the greatest additions to the Star Wars universe in decades. She first appeared in the Darth Vader series, and she won over the audience so thoroughly that she quickly earned her own title. Honestly, though Aphra works best when pitted against the pure of heart, or at least those on the side of the Rebels. She's Aphra, so of course she manipulates Luke, double-crosses him, saves his skin a few times, then cheats him again. That's just who she is.
It's also interesting to see a rebellious streak in Luke as he jaunts off with Aphra without telling Han, Leia, or anyone else for that matter. We know his dad didn't always follow protocol, so these little deviations are always revealing when Luke is concerned. It's also fun to see him beginning to realize his power. This particular story takes place soon after A New Hope, so Luke has not yet begun to completely understand what he has at his disposal--though this book does depict Luke having some pretty cool moments with his burgeoning abilities.
We also have quite a bit of Han, Leia, and another invaluable addition to the mythology named Sana Starros. All three get their moment to shine as Han finds more and more of the hero within, Leia further establishes herself as the capable leader she is, and Sana Starros slowly reveals more and more of her past to the reader. Guess what? Not only does she have deep connections to Han Solo, but it's heavily hinted that she is also tied to Doctor Aphra as well. The specifics may surprise you.
And, as always, Aphra's versions of C3PO and R2D2 steal the show. They are named 0-0-0 and BT-1. They are basically the murderous, demented, evil version of our favorite droids, and they are forever a delight.
The story of Screaming Citadel itself is entertaining. The art is very pleasing to the eye and keeps the plot moving at a quick pace. At times the faces of the characters based off of real life actors look almost photo realistic, which is sometimes jarring when the rest of the panel does not look so true to life. Of course, the best quality of the book is simply seeing all of these characters play off of each other. It's refreshing to have such rounded, charismatic new characters as Aphra, Sana, Triple-Zero, and Bee-Tee 1 making waves with our legendary favorites.

Hokey religions and ancient weapons are no match for a good blaster at your side, kid
Format: Paperback
Star Wars: The Screaming Citadel is a crossover collection of the main Star Wars comic series and the Doctor Aphra series. The Arc revolves around the Queen of The Screaming Citadel being the only one who can open a relic containing an ancient Jedi master. Aphra then teams up with Luke Skywalker and we have our crossover event. The story itself is good. A queen with parasitic bugs controlling a planet is uncharted territory for Star Wars and it works. There were great action moments, plots painting the Empire in a morally grey light than the traditional evil one. Doctor Aphra Marvel's golden girl character was funny in this and her chemistry with Luke worked. It didn't feel forced like Marvel was trying to use the Original Characters to build-up their new ones. Where this comic fails is the inconsistent art style as this is a collection you get different art with each issue. Its starts of good and then takes a nosedive in the Aphra issue in the volume. Bad art aside Screaming Citadel was an enjoyable crossover. Doctor Aphra is the best new character to come out of this new Marvel Disney run. Screaming Citadel is worth the read it was a nice crossover that delves more into the Fantasy elements of Star Wars and works as Star Wars has been Space Wizards since 1977.

What a ride.
Format: Paperback
How these two come together with the rest of the iconic characters is just so fun. Add in a Screaming Citadel and you're in for one hell of a ride. If you love Star Wars, pick it up. It could read as a stand-alone if needed. Part of the Doctor Aphra comics.
