I'm not a heroine -- I just play one. Also psychotics, vamps, orphans, hookers, housewives and -- on one memorable occasion -- a singing rutabaga. It was never my ambition to utilize my extensive dramatic training by playing a musical vegetable. However, as my agent is fond of pointing out, there are more actors in New York than there are people in most other cities. Translation: Beggars can't be choosers. This explains how I wound up painting my body green and prancing around stage half-naked the night Golly Gee, the female lead in the off-broadway show ""Sorcerer!"" disappeared into this air. Literally. Now other performers are also vanishing, and a mysterious stranger is warning me: There is evil among us. But the producers want me to take over Golly's part. http://www.scrybepress.com/images/0373802595.jpg

Looks like I'm going to need a little magical help if I want to keep my starring role . . . http://www.scrybepress.com/images/0373802331.jpg

spine creasing, light edge wear; The top act of Thaddeus Flint's interstellar carnival, Billybuck Dancer was the one, the only, the greatest gunslinger in the known universe. But somehow, fame and fortune weren't enough for the Dancer. Shooting cards from between the teeth of lovely ladies and outdrawing the 'unbeatable' killing machine were just too easy for a man like Billybuck. And even Thaddeus had to agree that the sharpshooter's new idea was good showmanship - suicidal maybe, but good moneymaking showmanship. So Billybuck's challaenge was broadcast throughout the starways: One million credits to the being that could outshoot the Dancer! http://www.scrybepress.com/images/kb004657.jpg

Título original: «Ivory» [Novela, 1988]. Traducción de Elías Sarhan. 339 pp. Insólita historia de unos colmillos de elefante, que comienza en el siglo XIX y concluye en el LXI, merced al trabajo, tan astuto como apasionante, de un investigador espacial y al sacrificio de fe del último miembro de una tribu africana. Esta obra de Mike resnik destaca por la ausencia de escenas virulentas y de manifestaciones de desprecio hacia la raza humana, bastante comunes en la literatura contemporánea. Tahúres del año 6000, piratas intergalácticos, científicos sin escrúpulos, políticos de almas vacías, coleccionistas fanáticos, tribus africanas del siglo XIX... todo acrisolado en una historia fascinante, enmarcada en un misterio detectivesco que contiene una profunda reflexión místico-filósofica, expresión de la actual tendencia universal a realzar el medio ambiente o la ecología.
