    Rosewater - der Aufstand
    Im Jahr 2067 hat sich Rosewater, die Stadt, die ihren Wohlstand dem Alien Wormwood verdankt, von Nigeria losgesagt. Eine Entscheidung, die bei der nigerianischen Regierung nicht auf Gegenliebe stößt. Im Gegenteil: Der Präsident ist nicht bereit, die prosperierende Stadt kampflos in die Freiheit zu entlassen.Jack Jacques, der ebenso ehrgeizige wie charismatische Bürgermeister von Rosewater, hat fest mit Wormwoods Unterstützung gerechnet, denn die Kuppel des Alien hatte die Stadt jahrelang gegen alle Aggressoren von außen verteidigt. Doch Wormwood stirbt ...Da erwacht in den Vorstädten Rosewaters eine Frau, die nicht mehr weiß, dass sie eine Ehefrau und Mutter ist, die aber umso deutlicher fühlt, dass dieser Körper nicht zu ihr gehört und etwas wesentlich Älteres, Zerstörerisches, Fremdes in ihr schlummert.Diese Frau wird zur letzten Hoffnung der von den Regierungstruppen bedrängten Stadt. Doch nur wenigen Menschen ist bewusst, welch hohen Preis sie für ihreRettung zahlen müssen, denn die Invasion der Aliens, dessen Vorhut Wormwood war, hat längst begonnen. Werden S45-Agentin Femi, Ex-Agent Kaaro und seine Lebensgefährtin Aminat die Bedrohung noch abwenden können?Rosewater - der Aufstand ist die hochgelobte Fortsetzung des prämierten Auftakts der Trilogie und schließt inhaltlich fast direkt an den ersten Band Rosewater an. Wurde im ersten Teil noch alles aus Sicht von Agent Kaaro beschrieben, lässt Thompson uns nun aus der Perspektive verschiedener Erzähler mitfiebern. Eine geschickt gewobene und prägnante Mischung aus Science-Fiction, Psychologie, Action und Mystery, die man nicht mehr aus der Hand legen möchte.

    The Wormwood Wind , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 339min
    This candid poetry collection is clearly the literary outpouring of a planetary citizen. A woman equally at home on the steppes of Central Asia as much as the capital cities of Europe. To my mind, a far from trivial verity once we recognize the innate femininity of her versification. Similarly to Sappho (5th Century BC), Nukenova allows everyone access into a woman's world, wherein seductive complexities of thought becomes manifest through wit and rhetoric. Admittedly, her images are often sharp - carefully elaborated for their own jovial sake. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Raushan Burkitbayeva-Nukenova.

    Arthur Meadows has just returned home in his HGV from a long trip to southwest Europe, supposedly bringing back a consignment of cloth, yet is actually bringing back something far more deadly. Meanwhile, a young Asian couple are murdered in their small house in the middle of Gloucester, the killings done with ruthless efficiency. Beverley Wharton, now Chief Inspector, does not relish the investigation of the murders because she does not get on with her new sergeant, and because the pathologist Charles Sydenham would not have been her first choice.
