        Terra (3). Collapse

        by Jennifer Alice Jager

        Remorselessly dark and shattering, Earth’s war against humankind is intensifying, and the end of the world is nigh! Chaos reigns over Planet Earth, and devastating natural disasters have sent millions of people to their death, while the survivors live in fear. In Tokyo there is only one person who has survived the destructive rage of Terra Mater. But Ayumi knows that something far worse awaits her than the ruins all around her. In a vision she has clearly seen what Terra Mater is planning. And so Ayumi has no choice: she must conquer her fear and join the natural spirits in trying to close down the Elekreen power station. Only she, Liam, Addy and Younes can save humanity.

        Terra #2

        by Jager, Jennifer Alice

        Die epische Endzeitreihe mit Suchtfaktor geht in die nächste Runde. Der Kampf von Mensch gegen Natur wird noch spannender, noch dramatischer, noch nervenaufreibender! Terras Naturkatastrophen stürzen die Welt immer mehr ins Chaos. Krieg und Zerstörung sind die Folgen. Mitten im australischen Outback bekommt Liam nur wenig davon mit … Ihn beschäftigt viel mehr das seltsame Verhalten der Menschen um ihn herum. Als er erfährt, dass es Terras nächstes Ziel ist, ganz Sydney zu zerstören, muss er handeln. Doch es gibt jemanden, der ihn mit seinem neuen Wissen nicht davonkommen lassen will - ein Naturgeist hat sich Terras Racheplan verschrieben und stellt sich ihm in den Weg. Kann Liam die drohende Katastrophe noch verhindern? Die Zeit läuft! Nicht nur für Liam, sondern auch für Addy, Younes, Ayumi und die ganze Welt. Band 3 der Terra-Serie erscheint im Januar 2020, der furiose Abschluss nur zwei Monate später im März 2020.

        Leuchtfeuerherzen

        by Janz, Tanja

        Romantisch, prickelnd, zum Träumen schön - der neue Sommerroman von Bestsellerautorin Tanja Janz: voller Wellenglitzern, Nordseeträume und Liebesglück. Sommer am Meer, ein Praktikum in einem Naturschutzgebiet und eine WG ohne Eltern: Besser könnte Alicia sich ihre Ferien an der Nordsee in St. Peter-Ording gar nicht vorstellen. Mit den jungen Bewohnern aus der Leuchtturm-WG freundet sich Alicia schnell an. Nur was sie von Surfer Liam halten soll, weiß sie nicht. Er scheint nichts ernst zu nehmen und jagt dauernd der nächsten Welle hinterher. Doch bei gemeinsamen Wattwanderungen und Müllsammelaktionen überrascht Liam sie plötzlich mit seiner einfühlsamen Art und seiner Liebe zur Natur. Und obwohl Alicia sich geschworen hat, erst einmal die Finger von Jungs zu lassen, klopft ihr Herz in seiner Nähe mit einem Mal so laut wie die tosende Brandung. Aber ist das Prickeln zwischen ihnen stark genug, um alle Differenzen zu überwinden?

        Terra (4). Afterglow

        by Jennifer Alice Jager

        Humankind’s battle against Nature is entering its decisive stage. Once more the explosive showdown of the apocalyptic TERRA series keeps the reader in breathless suspense. Humanity appears to be on the brink of destruction. Vast areas of land have been wiped off the face of the Earth, vegetation has reconquered its living space, but Terra Mater has by no means finished with the human bacillus. The hate-filled spirit of Nature that is claiming Younes’ body for itself, and wants to see all humans destroyed, gives him undreamt-of powers, but it also threatens to set him, his little sister and Chloe against one another. But there is even more at stake: if Younes and the other children from his visions (he had dreams about the other kids) do not stop Terra Mater soon from fulfilling her plans, every single human being will disappear from the planet. In order to prevent that from happening, they must come face to face with raging Mother Earth, and must not only conquer their fear but must also look Death in the eye.
