Historia
Начало XVII века. Войско Лжедмитрия I вторгается в Россию, переживающую к этому времени глубокий кризис, вызванный опричниной, Ливонской войной, голодом и эпидемиями. Начинается так называемое Смутное время, продлившееся без малого два десятилетия. В этот тяжелый для России период, самая незавидная участь была у холопов, которые из-за происходящих событий находились практически в абсолютном подчинении у хозяев без какой-либо надежды на освобождение.

Historia
Mia madre era una strega. O almeno così dissero quando la trascinarono via. Ma per me era vera solo una cosa: lei era il centro del mio universo. Avevo nove anni e la mia vita cominciò quel giorno. Inghilterra, 1573: in un mondo già illuminato dalla luce del Rinascimento, ma in cui ancora si dà la caccia alle streghe, la piccola Rose è figlia di una madre accusata di stregoneria, e per lei la vita sembra avere in serbo solo povertà e amarezza.

Historia
Highland Scotland was no place for a woman in the early 1500s. Life was turbulent and short, battles were waged, and sisters and daughters were traded as pawns in marriage. Catherine Campbell was one such young bride, betrothed to Lachlan Maclean and sent from her fine home to join him on the Isle of Mull, to bear his sons and heirs. But Lachlan proved to be nothing like the man of Catherine’s dreams, and she was forced to resign herself to enduring life with him for the sake of duty. Until the day when he threatened to take away the one thing she couldn’t sacrifice: her daughter.

Historia
Cortesãs, nobres, artistas, padres e médicos, decadentes ou influentes, ninguém era poupado pela verve satírica de Molière, dramaturgo que Rubem Fonseca transforma em personagem neste romance. Autor de comédias clássicas como Escola de mulheres, Tartufo, D. Juan e O avarento, Molière morreu em 1673, logo após uma apresentação de O doente imaginário, sua última peça. A partir desse acontecimento real, Rubem Fonseca cria um personagem fictício, o marquês que escreve anonimamente O doente Molière.

London, 1608. Three years after the Gunpowder Treason, the King's enemies prepare to strike again. Daniel Pursglove is tasked by royal command with one final mission: he must infiltrate the Serpents - a secret group of Catholics plotting to kill the King - or risk his own execution. But other conspirators are circling, men who would blackmail Daniel for their own dark ends. In the Serpents' den, nothing is quite as it seems. And when Daniel spies a familiar face among their number, the game takes a dangerous turn.

Il giovane Caravaggio, arrivato da poco a Roma, comincia a lavorare nella bottega di Cavalier d'Arpino, famosissimo pittore tardo-manierista. Si dedica soprattutto a realizzare nature morte, cosa che detesta perché vorrebbe dipingere figure e mettersi alla prova con nuove sfide. Ma il Cavalier d'Arpino, oltre a dipingere, commercia anche in dipinti, soprattutto nel Nord Europa. E la sua bottega ne è piena. Ed è così che Caravaggio adocchia tra i nuovi arrivi una tavoletta di piccolo formato, opera di Hieronymus Bosch. Rappresenta una scena minuziosa e complicata.

Tre redattori editoriali, dopo aver frequentato a lungo autori che si dilettano di scienze occulte, società segrete e complotti cosmici, decidono di inventare, con avventata leggerezza, un Piano. Ma qualcuno li prende sul serio. Affabulatorio, incalzante e coltissimo, è questo un romanzo che spazia furiosamente nel tempo, dove fanno la loro comparsa una sterminata serie di personaggi, di miti, di leggende, dai Templari ai Rosacroce, dai Miti Celtici ai Culti dell'antico Egitto, dal Santo Graal ai Vangeli Apocrifi, da Napoleone a Hitler, a Cagliostro.

Febbraio 1519. La brezza mattutina sparge il suo soffio su Roma, avvolgendola in un'atmosfera incantata. Raffaello Sanzio passeggia assorto per via Giulia, lungo l'argine del Tevere, lasciandosi ispirare dai colori che si riflettono nell'acqua e nel cielo, che gli pare una tela color lapislazzuli, arricchita solo da una punta di viola. Agostino Chigi, il banchiere più ricco della città, lo ha convocato al suo servizio per dipingere la loggia di villa Farnesina, un palazzo sontuoso nel cuore di Trastevere, frequentato dai più noti artisti e intellettuali che vivono nell'Urbe.
