As the author himself states, \"a book must, above all, teach people to love literature.\" Written for a younger audience than The Book of Lost Things, his previous work published by Bertrand, but just as original, the book features several quotations and subliminal messages throughout the plot. Connolly, known for his magical creativity, once again manages to produce a story unlike any other in its genre. The Gates is a fun and magical tale about an 11-year-old boy who, alongside his two best friends and his dog, must prevent demons from coming from hell from taking over planet Earth. The book's title refers to the doors that open to allow these evil creatures to escape. John Connolly blends fantasy, humor, and science in a captivating story that proves that learning can also be a lot of fun. Every reader will surely enjoy the author's footnotes. \"Demonic and darkly comic, peppered with science, history, and amusing footnotes on everything from St. Thomas Aquinas to quantum theory.\" (Daily Telegraph) \"Shocking!\" (Jeffrey Deaver) \"Connolly has a mind full of fantastical stories.\" (O Estado de S.

When they begin to whisper words to him, reality and imagination blur until, while playing in the garden, David enters an enchanted kingdom, where he encounters heroes, monsters, and a failed king who keeps his secrets in a mysterious book.  \nEchoing fairy tales that all readers grew up with, The Book of Lost Things is the captivating story of a boy who discovers that reading can turn any fantasy into reality and that, in real life, growing up can make a simple young man a hero.","brand":"Totvsrj-record-dc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47159555064060,"sku":"9788528615470","price":74.9,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/9197\/5420\/files\/039cd5d1fdf8d988832bc469225427c6.jpg?v=1783705779"},{"product_id":"sinos-do-inferno-vol-2-as-aventuras-de-samuel-john","title":"Hell's Bells (Vol. 2 The Adventures of Samuel John)","description":"A continuation of the Samuel Johnson series that began with The Gates. Samuel Johnson is in trouble. His failing eyesight is causing him great embarrassment, and the demon Mrs. Abernathy has been thirsty for revenge ever since her plans to invade Earth were foiled by the young man. She plans to imprison him, and when the Large Hadron Collider is turned back on, opportunity knocks. Samuel and his faithful dachshund, Boswell, are dragged into the depths of Hell, where they will be hunted by Mrs. Abernathy and her infernal minions. But catching Samuel will be no easy feat for the demon, who has already witnessed firsthand the bravery and intelligence of the boy and his dog, as well as the loyal friendship between Samuel and the hapless demon Nurd. She also doesn't count on the presence of two incompetent police officers and an unlucky—in the most optimistic sense of the word—ice cream man. Nor could I have expected the intervention of a group of tiny beings who confirmed that Samuel and Boswell aren't the only inhabitants of Earth to suddenly end up in Hell. If you thought demons were scary, wait until you see Mr. Merryweather's Elves.","brand":"Totvsrj-record-dc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47174807421180,"sku":"9788528619430","price":69.9,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/9197\/5420\/files\/d463a69dd7c5b895e224b99b9222b9ff_3f8e4141-a667-4c78-bd50-da4376e8e7d1.jpg?v=1783705999"},{"product_id":"noturnos","title":"Nocturnal","description":"Children believe monsters are real. Adults try to convince them otherwise—or that, in the end, they will always be defeated. In his first short story collection, John Connolly writes about the clashing worlds of children and adults in sixteen utterly haunting stories, with echoes of some of the masters of horror—M.R. James, Ray Bradbury, Stephen King—but without abandoning the unique and unmistakable voice that made him famous in The Book of Lost Things. Lost loves, missing children, predatory demons, and vengeful ghosts are just some of the ingredients that make up this unmissable anthology.","brand":"Totvsrj-record-dc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47175153647868,"sku":"9788528616811","price":54.9,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/9197\/5420\/files\/376a4984b9d015dc312d950967637abe.jpg?v=1778324781"},{"product_id":"o-livro-das-coisas-perdidas-1","title":"O livro das coisas perdidas","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eO livro das coisas perdidas\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e, do autor best-seller John Connolly, chega em nova edição com novos contos surpreendentes.
