Псион
Он овладел тайными знаниями и стал псионом необычайно высокого уровня, теперь он дворянин, более того – глава рода, но одно экспериментальное заклинание – и Зак Он очнулся в знойной пустыне без магии, лишенный всех своих псионических способностей. В этой вселенной все иначе, и выученные базы знаний не спасут псиона. Заку предстоит выбор – помогать попавшим в беду или выбираться самому; осваивать здешние споки или искать путь в уже обустроенный собственный мир, на который у него были большие планы.

Дом без ключа. Охотники за долларом (сборник)
Эрл Дерр Биггерс (1884–1933) – классик американского детектива. Окончил Гарвардский университет, после чего работал репортером и театральным критиком в Бостоне. В 1912 г. переехал в Нью-Йорк с уже законченной рукописью первого романа «Семь ключей лысого». В Нью-Йорке Биггерс некоторое время работал журналистом, после чего переключился на драматургическую деятельность, в которой весьма преуспел. Его пьесы ставились как на Бродвее, так и в театрах других страна. Главный герой детективов Биггерса китаец Чарли Чан, симпатичный, немного смешной, но чрезвычайно проницательный сыщик из полицейского участка на Гавайях, оказывается в центре расследования сложных и запутанных преступлений, раскрытие которых не всегда по плечу даже знаменитым детективам Скотланд-Ярда. В этом томе представлены два произведения Биггерса. «Дом без ключа» – первый роман о Чане (1925), в котором главным аргументом в поисках убийцы хозяина дома являются часы со светящимся циферблатом на руке убийцы. Однако существуют и другие улики… В повести «Охотники за долларом» читателю вместе с ее героем, детективом-любителем, предстоит найти украденный у миллионера… один доллар.
