In the opening installment of "The Chronicles of Alarion," we are introduced to Alarion, a seemingly ordinary young man living in the mundane world. Alarion's life takes a dramatic turn when he stumbles upon a mysterious and ornate key - the Key of Kallindor. This key, with its intricate and mystical design, is far from ordinary. It carries with it the power to unlock a hidden portal into a world of magic and wonder. As Alarion unwittingly turns the key, he is transported into a realm unknown to most mortals. This is a place where magic flows like a river, mythical creatures roam, and the very air crackles with enchantment. Alarion's introduction to this magical world is marked by both awe and trepidation. Soon, he realizes that the Key of Kallindor is not merely a portal opener; it is a powerful artifact that holds the secrets of this realm. Alarion's journey, filled with curiosity and courage, begins as he seeks to unravel the mysteries of this new and enchanted land. Along the way, he encounters strange beings, makes new friends, and becomes embroiled in a quest that will forever alter the course of his life. "Alarion and the Key of Kallindor" is a tale of transformation, discovery, and the commencement of a grand adventure. It lays the foundation for a hero's journey that will span seven books, each revealing new layers of magic, destiny, and courage in the face of ever-increasing challenges.

Roman illustré Dès les premières pages, le lecteur est happé dans un univers apocalyptique où une invasion de méduses mutants menace l'existence même de l'humanité. Par touches successives, l'intrigue gagne en ampleur épique à mesure que le mystère s'épaissit. D'où viennent ces créatures venues des abysses ? Quel est ce virus mortel qu'elles propagent ? Avec un sens du suspense consommé, l'auteur distille ses révélations au compte-gouttes, garantissant un rythme haletant de bout en bout. Chaque nouveau rebondissement apporte son lot de surprises dans ce scénario catastrophe machiavéliquement dosé. Mais derrière l'aspect trépidant du récit perce une réflexion troublante sur le devenir de notre civilisation. Car cette invasion venue de la mer n'est rien d'autre qu'une allégorie des dangers qui guettent l'humanité, qu'il s'agisse du dérèglement climatique, des pandémies ou de la folie autodestructrice des hommes. Ainsi, le romancier sonde avec acuité les grandeurs et les misères de la nature humaine. Qu'advient-il de nos valeurs lorsque nous sommes acculés ? Sommes-nous capables de sacrifier notre intérêt individuel au profit du bien commun ? Autant de questions vertigineuses soulevées avec une perspicacité fascinante. Sur le plan formel, cette uchronie impressionne par sa maîtrise technique. L'auteur jongle avec virtuosité entre anticipations scientifiques d'une précision confondante et envolées lyriques dignes de Virgile. Le lecteur se laisse emporter, émerveillé, à travers cette odyssée futuriste truffée de visions oniriques. A n'en pas douter, avec ce roman visionnaire, Francisco Angulo s'inscrit dignement dans les traces de Jules Verne et des grands auteurs d'anticipation. Mais ce classicisme apparent dissimule en réalité une réflexion d'une modernité et d'une profondeur saisissantes. Penchons-nous plus en détails sur les différents aspects qui font la force et l'originalité de cette ¿uvre magistrale. Tout d'abord, le cadre uchronique choisi par l'auteur n'est pas sans rappeler certains grands classiques du genre, à commencer par le roman fondateur de Verne "Vingt mille lieues sous les mers". Comme le Nautilus du Capitaine Nemo, le vaisseau Hesperides sert ici de décor à une odyssée futuriste pleine de rebondissements. Angulo parvient à recréer la même atmosphère étouffante et mystérieuse qui prévalait à bord du sous-marin de Verne.

Illustrated NovelThey came without warning - strange jellyfish-like creatures that flooded our oceans and beaches by the millions. At first they seemed a mere curiosity, these alien visitors glowing faintly purple as they pulsed through the waves. Tourists gathered to marvel at their graceful forms, children delighted in their squishy texture. We should have been warier from the start.The first victim was a scuba diver, stung by the tentacles of an unknown species. Within hours a raging fever set in, soon followed by violent delirium. He became the index case of the epidemic as the mysterious neurotoxin spread rapidly from human to human.Chaos erupted within days as the infected hordes - crazed and cannibalistic - overwhelmed authorities. Cities descended into anarchy, society teetered on the brink of collapse. Our leaders responded with lethal force and martial law, to little avail. For the jellyfish were only the heralds of a full-scale invasion from below, one that threatened to wipe humanity from the face of the Earth.With INVADERS, Francisco Angulo has crafted a genuinely frightening and all-too-plausible doomsday scenario, underpinned by rapid-fire action and tantalizing scientific speculation. Part Michael Crichton and part Stephen King, Angulo's vision of an alien-engineered apocalypse will have you watching the waters with wary eyes long after you've turned the final page.I wanted to write a novel in the style of those fantastic stories that appeared in those old American magazines for geeks: Amazing Stories, Science Fiction, Infinity, etc... A novel without pretense, with the sole purpose of entertaining and of course with the idea of having fun during the creative process. With everything going on and all the media talking to us about the crisis, I thought we'd have to have some fun with something, at least for now reading and writing is free...
