Hvad, hvis kvinder havde magten? Pludselig – i morgen eller dagen efter – opdager alle verdens teenagepiger, at de har fået ‘kraf­ten’; evnen til at give dødeligt stærke elektriske stød. Bogen følger tre kvinder og en mand gennem 10 år, mens kraften langsomt ændrer på magtbalancen mellem kønnene, og en verdensomspændende revolution tager sin begyndelse. Det begynder i det små. I USA indser en kvindelig borgmester, at den fysisk overlegne kvinde kan komme langt i politik. Datteren af en britisk mafiaboss tager en hævnaktion i egne hænder, og en sydstatspige får endelig mulighed for at flygte fra misbruget i sin plejefamilie. Andre steder er omvæltningen mere dramatisk. I Moldova tager tidligere sexslaver kampen op mod den systematiserede menneskehandel, og i Indien og Saudi-Arabien gør kvinderne oprør mod århundreders undertrykkelse. En ung nigeriansk journalist dokumenterer det hele – også, da mændene svarer igen. Kraften er et portræt af fire liv og et verdenssamfund i radikal forandring. Det er en provo­ker­ende, tankevækkende og overraskende morsom roman, der både beskriver en alternativ virkelighed og afslører vores egen verdens skyggesider. Naomi Alderman skriver romaner og noveller. Hun er vokset op i London og har læst på Oxford University og University of East Anglia. Hun laver bl.a. udsendelser for BBC Radio 4 og skriver for The Guardian. Kraften er hendes fjerde roman og den første oversat til dansk. Hun har vundet flere priser for sine bøger, bl.a. Bailey’s Prize for Women’s Fiction 2017 og Women’s Prize for Fiction 2018, begge for Kraften.

The universe is a forest, patrolled by numberless and nameless predators. In this forest, others are hell, a dire existential threat. Stealth is survival. Any civilisation that reveals its location is prey. Earth has. And the others are on the way.

Fra den Pulitzer-prisvindende forfatter bag Alt det lys vi ikke ser, en af de mest anerkendte og bedst sælgende bøger i nyere tid, kommer nu en triumf af fantasi: En skyhøj roman om børn, der træder ind i de voksnes rækker i en ødelagt verden.I det femtende århundredes Konstantinopel vokser forældreløse Anna op i et hus befolket af kvinder, der alle ernærer sig ved at brodere kåber til byens præster. Da Anna ved et tilfælde får fingre i et antikt manuskript, fortrylles hun af fortællingen om Aithon, drengen der drømmer om at flyve op til Byen i skyerne. Men Konstantinopel er under fjendtligt angreb udefra, og Annas søster er dødeligt syg. På den anden side af de høje bymure står bondedrengen Omeir, milevidt hjemmefra. Han er tvunget i krig af den invaderende hær, og ved Konstantinopels mure krydses hans veje med Annas. Fem hundrede år senere, på et bibliotek i Idaho, er den tidligere krigsfange Zeno i færd med at instruere fem skolebørn i et skuespil baseret på Aithons historie. Blandt hyldernes mange bøger har den forstyrrede klimaaktivist Seymour plantet en bombe. Og i en ikke så fjern fremtid skriver Konstance fortællingen om Aithon ned fra erindringen, som hendes far fortalte hende den. Hun har aldrig set Jorden, kun hørt historier om den, om bord på fartøjet Argos. BYEN I SKYERNE er en episk roman om kærlighed, længsel og omsorg for Jorden og de sjæle, der befolker den. Med virtuos fornemmelse for komposition væver Anthony Doerr skæbnetrådene sammen til et varmt sanset portræt af menneskelivets mest hjertegribende aspekter.

Howard Philips Lovecraft (1890-1937) er amerikansk horrorlitteraturs største navn mellem Edgar Allan Poe og Stephen King. I sin levetid opnåede han kun meget begrænset udbredelse, men senere har hans særegne, intense skrivestil og ofte kontroversielle verdensbillede fået kolossal indflydelse inden for både litteratur, fra Stephen King til Michel Houellebecq, film, tegneserier, rollespil, computerspil og musik, fra Metallica til Deadmau5. Dette bind fortsætter udgivelsen af Lovecrafts samlede fortællinger og fører forfatterskabet frem fra dets definerende midterperiode, der er udgivet i bindet Cthulhu kalder. Fortællinger 1926-1928, til forfatterskabets – og Lovecrafts livs – afslutning. I disse noveller udbygger Lovecraft sine mytologier med sin store interesse for naturvidenskab og aktuelle begivenheder, så der knyttes tråde både bagud til for længst forsvundne civilisationer befolket med afklarede væsner fra det ydre rum og frem til nutidige monstrøsiteter, der befolker de fiktive regioner i New England omkring den sagnomspundne Miskatonic-flod og byen Arkham.
