Razoavel ( ) ¿Qué harías si conocieras la fecha del fin del mundo? Cuando un hombre a las puertas de la muerte encarga a Will Piper la búsqueda de un libro, el ex agente del FBI no lo duda un instante. Un libro antiguo en el que va a descubrir un secreto estremecedor: una misteriosa epístola escrita por Félix, el último superior de la abadía de Vectis, deja constancia de los extraños acontecimientos relacionados con la biblioteca de los muertos y revela la naturaleza de la última fecha registrada: el 9 de febrero de 2027... el fin de la humanidad. Will deberá enfrentarse, entonces, a un dilema moral de difícil solución: revelar a la humanidad una verdad aterradora o callar para siempre. This is another excellent book in the Library of the Dead Series by Glenn Cooper. I absolutely loved the first book, and although I still prefer that one this book came a very close second. What's not to love in a book that has links to John Calvin, Nostradamus and William Shalesspeare. As with most of Glenn Cooper's books I love the way he intertwines the modern day story with the back stories in history. Add to this the tension of the chase, the final battle, a good group of characters, a good plot, clues in the chase and you have another gripping read. I would recommend this series if you like this style of books. The challenge now is to read the final book in the series which could well be a humdinger as it is building up to a crescendo.
Nakon otkrića biblioteke mrtvih sa datumima rođenja i smrti svih ljudi na planeti, život agenta Vila Pajpera trajno se menja. Taman kada je pomislio da je sve muke ostavio za sobom i otišao u penziju, iznenadni pronalazak nestale knjige iz biblioteke mrtvih vodi ga u novu pustolovinu. Kako bi rešio misteriju od koje zavisi sudbina celog čovečanstva, Pajper saznaje da je nestala knjiga mrtvih duša ostavila dubok trag u istoriji, nadahnuvši mnoge velike umove od Šekspira i religijskog filozofa Žana Kalvina, pa sve do čuvenog Nostradamusa, koji je oduševio svet svojim veličanstvenim predskazanjima. Rešavajući tragove koji su kroz mnoge vekove bili skriveni u starom engleskom zamku, Vil će saznati šokantnu istinu za koju čovečanstvo možda još nije spremno..
The Library: Only a handful know it exists. It holds the world's most astonishing and terrifying information. But the one book that is the key to the greatest secret of all time is missing. Former FBI Special Agent Will Piper solved and survived the "Doomsday Killer" case and his reward was a forced early retirement. But the shattering truths he learned about the government's most covert operations won't let him rest and now he's on the trail of a mysterious volume that's been lost for six centuries. This is the book that inspired Shakespeare and the prophecies of Nostradamus, and once Will gets his hands on it, his life will be worth nothing his death sentence a top priority handed down from the very highest levels of power. Because there are some truths too dangerous for anyone to know those that concern the future, world domination and the end of everything. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden.
