September. Again. But how different this year. However, the books are still there and they come many and great long-awaited editorial news and some delayed by circumstances. It is impossible to talk about all those that come out, that there is always some customer who points out this or the other that I do not include. Understand that you always have to make a selection of number and gender. These are the 6 that I have chosen from narrative, historical, black and mystery novel.

The darkness and the dawn - Ken Follett
September 15
It is possibly one of the biggest editorial launches of this year. The prequel to The pillars of the earth takes us back to the most famous and successful moment of the Welsh author, only that we go to the beginning of the Middle Ages. But we have the same formula: a protagonist, Edgar, Which is boat builder; Ragna, rebel heroine, daughter of a Norman nobleman; Alfred, monk idealist who dreams of turning his abbey into a center of knowledge; and, of course, the bad of the function that is again a ambitious bishop and ruthless. And all seasoned with viking invasions, which always give a lot of play. I mean, nothing new under the sun, but it is the Follet sun.
