We may not realize it as we listen to the soundtrack of our lives through tiny earbuds, but music and all that it encompasses is disappearing all around us. In this fable-like story, three musicians from around the world are mysteriously summoned to Nashville, the Music City, to join together with Victor to do battle against the "Phasers", whose blinking "music-cancelling" headphones silence and destroy all musical sound. Only by coming together, connecting, and making the joyful sounds of immediate, "live" music can the world be restored to the power and spirit of music.

Este volumen cubre del primer tercio del siglo XVI al inicio del XVII, enlazando las Germanías de Valencia y Mallorca con la especificidad catalana: malestar social sin insurrección general, auge del bandolerismo y tensiones con la corte de Madrid que erosionan el pactismo medieval catalán. A través de dietarios, procesos judiciales y crónicas, se reinterpreta el bandolerismo como fenómeno político con jefes como Antonio Roca, el Moreu Palau, Roque Guinart y Serrallonga, cuyas cuadrillas, apoyadas por redes locales y casas principales, combaten bajo los bandos rivales de Nyerros y Cadells.

Un recorrido vibrante por la Corona de Aragón entre Jaime II “el Justo” y Alfonso V, donde la política pactista se entrelaza con batallas navales, intrigas diplomáticas y el pulso de unas Cortes que exigen juramentos y libertades reales. El volumen abre con la paz trabajada con Castilla, los acuerdos con Francia y el Papado, y los pactos que redefinen Sicilia, Córcega y Cerdeña tras las Vísperas Sicilianas, con episodios estelares de Roger de Lauria y negociaciones ante Bonifacio VIII y los Anjou.​ Desde Pedro IV “el Ceremonioso” se proyecta un Mediterráneo en tensión.

Este volumen se centra en el tránsito que va de los orígenes de la Guerra de Sucesión tras la muerte de Carlos II a las transformaciones borbónicas y los ecos ilustrados del siglo XVIII, mostrando cómo la pugna dinástica entre Borbones y Austrias reconfigura la legalidad catalana y el equilibrio europeo. Abre con intrigas cortesanas, testamentos, renuncias y tratados de partición, y sigue la designación de Felipe de Anjou, la respuesta del Papado y de las potencias, y el temprano pulso institucional en Barcelona por fueros, juramentos y prerrogativas municipales.

The Man Who Laughs (“L’Homme qui Rit”) was called by its author “A Romance of English History,” and was written during the period Hugo spent in exile in Guernsey. Like The Toilers of the Sea, its immediate predecessor, the main theme of the story is human heroism, confronted with the superhuman tyranny of blind chance. As a passionate cry on behalf of the tortured and deformed, and the despised and oppressed of the world, The Man Who Laughs is irresistible.
