Ojo a la sinopsis:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><em>Humans must be silent.&nbsp;<\/em><em>Humans must be obedient.&nbsp;<\/em><em>Humans must be good<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All his life, John has tried to live by those rules. Most days, it&#8217;s not too difficult. A hundred and twenty years after The Fall, and a hundred years after the grays swept in to pick the last dregs of humanity out of the wreckage of a ruined world, John has found himself bonded to Martok Barden nee Black Hand, one of the &#8220;good&#8221; grays. Sure, Martok is broke, homeless, and borderline manic, but he&#8217;s always treated John like an actual person, and sometimes like a friend. It&#8217;s a better deal than most humans get.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But when Martok puts John&#8217;s bond up as collateral against an abandoned house in the woods that he hopes to turn into a wilderness retreat for wealthy grays, John learns that there are limits to Martok&#8217;s friendship. Soon he finds himself caught between an underworld boss who thinks Martok is something that he very much is not, a girl who was raised by feral humans and has nothing but contempt for&nbsp;<em>pets&nbsp;<\/em>like John, and Martok himself, whose delusions of grandeur seem to be finally catching up with him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, not for nothing, something in the woods has been killing people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>John has sixty days before Martok&#8217;s loan comes due to unravel the mystery of how humans wound up holding the wrong end of the domestication stick and find a way to turn Martok&#8217;s half-baked plans into profit enough to buy back his life, all while avoiding getting butchered by feral humans or having his head crushed by an angry gray. Easy peasy, right?<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Mi traducci\u00f3n:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Los humanos deben permanecer en silencio. Los humanos deben ser obedientes. Los humanos deben ser buenos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Toda su vida John ha seguido estas reglas. La mayor\u00eda de los d\u00edas no es dif\u00edcil. 120 a\u00f1os despu\u00e9s de la Ca\u00edda, y cien a\u00f1os despu\u00e9s de que los grises recogieron los \u00faltimos restos de la humanidad en un mundo destrozado, John est\u00e1 unido a  Martok Barden nee Black Hand, uno de los &#8220;grises buenos&#8221;. Y eso que Martok est\u00e1 arruinado, sin casa y sufre de trastorno de l\u00edmite de la personalidad, pero siempre ha tratado a John como a una persona incluso casi como un amigo en ocasiones. Es m\u00e1s de lo que muchos humanos reciben.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pero cuando Martok pone a John como garant\u00eda para la adquisici\u00f3n de una casa abandonada en el bosque con la esperanza de convertirla en un retiro para grises ricos, John comprende que hay l\u00edmites en su amistad.  Pronto se ver\u00e1 atrapado entre un jefe de la mafia que piensa que Martok es algo que no es, una chica criada por humanos salvajes que solo siente l\u00e1stima por mascotas como John y el propio Martok, cuyos delirios de grandeza son cada vez mayore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Y, por si faltaba poco, algo est\u00e1 matando gente en los bosques.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>John tendr\u00e1 sesenta d\u00eda antes de que el pr\u00e9stamo de Martok finalice para desvelar el misterio de c\u00f3mo los humanos acabaron en la parte mala de la domesticaci\u00f3n y convertir los planes de Martok en un negocio exitoso para recuperar su vida, mientras evita morir a manos de humanos salvajes o que le aplaste la cabeza un gris enfadado.
