Tóm tắt

A Thousand Splendid Suns is a breathtaking story set against the volatile events of Afghanistan's last thirty years - from the Soviet invasion to the reign of the Taliban to post-Taliban rebuilding - that puts the violence, fear, hope, and faith of this country in intimate, human terms. It is a tale of two generations of characters brought jarringly together by the tragic sweep of war, where personal lives - the struggle to survive, raise a family, find happiness - are inextricable from the history playing out around them. Propelled by the same storytelling instinct that made The Kite Runner a beloved classic, A Thousand Splendid Suns is at once a remarkable chronicle of three decades of Afghan history and a deeply moving account of family and friendship. It is a striking, heart-wrenching novel of an unforgiving time, an unlikely friendship, and an indestructible love - a stunning accomplishment. --front flap

The Great Escape

It never once entered her mind of doing this for real. Once it just came out as an idea. The second as a joke to those close enough to freely mention it. The third, a wish in her coming-of-age birthday. The fourth, an addictive urge in the sense of never wanting to leave her mind, indulging her need for someone to understand. And the last and the most unbelievable choice for her and to everyone who should've known her, is for Haniel Riego to finally do the greatest escape of her life. Who ever heard of an introvert girl leaving her home without a word anyway? Haniel never leaves the house with no reason to go. Not even once. Not even a lie. But when she finally reaches the age of nineteen, it's to find everything is falling down out of control. Her mind is dark place to linger on, her family is broken, her friends only appearing in their time of need and she failed to get on with the pressure of College : it's clear from the situation of her that it was all because of her choices from the past. It was mistakes, yes, which doesn't seem like all that much when you think about the other billion's lives in the world: if you had it hard, it will be harder for others but when you look at it in a deeper understanding, it's better to don't compare your problems to other people's just to erase yours because it'll only make you feel worse. But not to Haniel, who lets out a deep breath as she stans in her room, examining the remnants of her childhood before she soon breaks away her own rope tied to this place. Across the other side of the house, her mother is watching a soap opera and her brother is out on his friend's house, a common occurence. In the garage, the beat up car is waiting while the other people in the house are oblivious to her plan for the night. Haniel closes her eyes, just for a moment, and when she opens them again, her face worse a determination dead set on this escape. Who would have guessed that whole silent goodbye to her home could change everything in her life?

SSS-Class Cursed Elementalist

Humans were tricked into changing mana for advanced technology. 138 years ago, the human race came into contact with an alien species from one of the hurricane galaxies located in the constellation of the Sculptor. A species that took advantage of human’s good nature. After losing spirits, exotic animals, and beautiful plants, they also lost their humanity. The so wished technology only created a world where these still existed, the Neo System. A world where humans could live as they did before. A fantasy to escape the apocalypse that had befallen them and its predators. But then… [[Humans! Remember when you gave us your magic abilities to help us?]] [[Well, we don’t need it anymore! You can have it back! (>^_^)>]] Christopher J. Windhailer, a descendant of an Ancient Wizard family who thought he could become the greatest priest on Earth, was presented with a smooth-sailing beginning, as always. After all, for someone who's always had it easy, what could possibly go wrong? 'My class is SSS-Elementalist! Amazing!' 'Now, I will become the strongest in this world and bring greatness to my race!' [SYSTEM ANNOUNCEMENT: CONGRATULATIONS! YOU'VE BEEN CURSED ^^] 'A curse?! Hmpt! As if something so insignificant would stop me!' 'Finally! My first skill is Controlling Wind, and... I can't use it.' 'Finally! I've obtained a Legendary-Class Staff, and... I also can't use it.' Follow him on his journey towards overcoming the curse and achieving greatness! And, of course, he may become the strongest elementalist while he's at it! * (Author's note: This story will develop on Earth, but it is still the same universe as "FFF-Class Corpse" and "Annihilator-Class Alien", as it is part of the "Universe Re-Classification" series. You can choose not to read the others. Enjoy!)
