Sinopsis:
SUNGU LEMBU menjalani hidup membawa dendam. Raden Mandasia menjalani hari-hari memikirkan penyelamatan Kerajaan Gilingwesi. Keduanya bertemu di rumah dadu Nyai Manggis di Kelapa. Sungu Lembu mengerti bahwa Raden Mandasia yang memiliki kegemaran ganjil mencuri daging sapi adalah pembuka jalan bagi rencananya. Maka, ia pun menyanggupi ketika Raden Mandasia mengajaknya menempuh perjalanan menuju Kerajaan Gerbang Agung.

Berdua, mereka tergulung dalam pengalaman-pengalaman mendebarkan: bertarung melawan lanun di lautan, ikut menyelamatkan pembawa wahyu, bertemu dengan juru masak menyebalkan dan hartawan dengan selera makan yang menakjubkan, singgah di desa penghasil kain celup yang melarang penyebutan warna, berlomba melawan maut di gurun, mengenakan kulit sida-sida, mencari cara menjumpai Putri Tabassum Sang Permata Gerbang Agung yang konon tak pernah berkaca—cermin-cermin di istananya bakal langsung pecah berkeping-keping karena tak sanggup menahan kecantikannya, dan akhirnya terlibat dalam perang besar yang menghadirkan hujan mayat belasan ribu dari langit.

Meminjam berbagai khazanah cerita dari masa-masa yang berlainan, Yusi Avianto Pareanom menyuguhkan dongeng kontemporer yang memantik tawa, tangis, dan maki makian Anda dalam waktu berdekatan—mungkin bersamaan.

Format: E-book
Published: June, 2016

Rating: 2 / 5 stars

Date started: June 30, 2016 - Date finished: July 1, 2016

Synopsis:
There is darkness sweeping across the stars. 

Most know her as the Bloody Baroness, the captain of a fearsome glass starship called The Marauder. Androma and her crew strike terror in the hearts of those who cross them amongst the many corners of the Mirabel Galaxy. 

When a routine mission goes rogue, the all-female crew is captured by a bounty hunter from Andi’s past and forced into a job that could, quite literally, start a war that will devour worlds. 

Meanwhile, on the far side of the galaxy, the ruthless ruler Nor waits in the shadows of the planet Xen Ptera, biding her time. The final pieces are about to fall into place, liberating a plan that will tear Mirabel in two. 

As the Marauder hurtles toward the unknown, there is one lesson that proves to be true: No one can be trusted in a galaxy that runs on lies and illusion. 

From internet sensation Sasha Alsberg and multi-genre author Lindsay Cummings comes a new serialized space opera, full of action, intrigue, and steamy star-crossed romance. 

Perfect for fans of Hugh Howie, Sarah J Maas, and Beth Revis.
