La selección

Para treinta y cinco chicas, La Selección es una oportunidad que solo se presenta una vez en la vida. La oportunidad de escapar de la vida que les ha tocado por nacer en una determinada familia. La oportunidad de que las trasladen a un mundo de trajes preciosos y joyas que no tienen precio. La oportunidad de vivir en un palacio y de competir por el corazón del guapísimo príncipe MaxonSin embargo, para America Singer, ser seleccionada es una pesadilla porque significa alejarse de su amor secreto, Aspen, quien pertenece a una casta inferior a la de ella; y también abandonar su hogar para pelear por una corona que no desea y vivir en un palacio que está bajo la constante amenaza de ataques violentos por parte de los rebeldes. 'Un cuento de hadas distópico. Una novela encantadora, cautivadora y con la cantidad justa de suspiros por amor.' Kiersten White, autora de Paranormal.

As a child, Faye Morgan was always an outsider, shunned for the ancient and powerful magic that runs through her veins. Ever since she was a little girl, growing up in the village of Abercolme on the wild coast of Scotland, her life has been steeped in the old ways - witchcraft, herbal lore and a blood connection to the dangerous and unpredictable world of Faerie. But magic is both a gift and a burden, and Faye has more than paid the price of living between two worlds. Neither accepted by the villagers, nor welcome in Murias after rebuffing the fickle and attractive Faerie Warrior King, Finn Beatha, Faye runs from Abercolme, hoping to leave that life behind. However, even in the twisted, cobbled streets of London, Faye finds her blood bond with Faerie won't be broken. A Faerie War of the Elements is brewing and, though she doesn't yet know it, Faye is fated to play a terrible part.
