Noche de pastel y marionetas / Night of Cake & Puppets
by Laini Taylor
De Laini Taylor, cuyas novelas han destacado entre los mejores libros de fantasía según The New York Times, Kirkus Reviews, Readings.com y Amazon. Una noche de la que apenas se habló en la trilogía de Hija de humo y hueso, aquella mágica primera cita de Zuzana y Mik es una perfecta historia de amor.
Zuzana podrá ser pequeña pero la timidez no es una de sus características. Su mejor amiga, Karou, la llama "hada rabiosa", "furibunda", y se cuenta por ahí que sus ojos vudú hielan la sangre; incluso su hermano mayor le teme a su mal genio. Sólo que cuando se trata del simple hecho de hablarle a Mik, el Chico del Violín, toda esa valentía la abandona. Pero ya estuvo bueno. Zuzana está decidida a conocerlo mejor, y vaya que tiene un plan y una buena dosis de magia.
Una serie de pistas maravillosamente ideadas llevará a Mik por toda la ciudad de Praga en una fría noche de invierno antes de que finalmente se tope con el tesoro que lo aguarda.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION In this new stand-alone novella from New York Times best-selling author Laini Taylor comes the story of a romantic, funny, and fantastical first date.In Night of Cake & Puppets, Taylor brings to life a night only hinted at in the Daughter of Smoke & Bone Trilogy - the magical first date of fan-favorites Zuzana and Mik. Told in alternating perspectives, it's the perfect love story for fans of the series and new listeners alike.
Petite though she may be, Zuzana is not known for timidity. Her best friend, Karou, calls her "rabid fairy," her "voodoo eyes" are said to freeze blood, and even her older brother fears her wrath. But when it comes to the simple matter of talking to Mik, or "Violin Boy," her courage deserts her. Now, enough is enough. Zuzana is determined to meet him, and she has a fistful of magic and a plan. It's a wonderfully elaborate treasure hunt of a plan that will take Mik all over Prague on a cold winter's night before finally leading him to the treasure: herself!
Violin Boy's not going to know what hit him.
