Publisher's summary
Humanity is finally united under the Solar Commonwealth. Under the Pax Solaris, the world no longer lives with the threat of nuclear devastation hanging over it like the sword of Damocles.
But not everyone is happy with the new order, and some have decided that a change of leadership is required. And they are more than willing to see sacrifices made to implement their vision.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 3,422
It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide. Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

Story5 out of 5 stars 154,804
Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars. Now, he's sure he'll be the first person to die there. After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he’s alive - and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive. But Mark isn't ready to give up yet.

Inheriting your uncle's supervillain business is more complicated than you might think. Particularly when you discover who's running the place. Charlie's life is going nowhere fast. A divorced substitute teacher living with his cat in a house his siblings want to sell, all he wants is to open a pub downtown, if only the bank will approve his loan. Then his long-lost uncle Jake dies and leaves his supervillain business (complete with island volcano lair) to Charlie. But becoming a supervillain isn't all giant laser death rays and lava pits.

In the heart of the South Pacific lies Point Nemo, the most desolate and remote place on Earth. At its core is a dead zone, devoid of life, where government agencies crash their obsolete satellites and space stations, confident they won't harm a soul. When the International Space Station suffers a catastrophic failure and plummets through the atmosphere, it's here that Mission Specialist Julie Rohr, an astrobiologist studying living space dust called xylem, finds herself marooned. Julie's only hope for rescue lies in the hands of her estranged father, Dr. Finn Maddern, a renowned mycologist.

April 1, 1944, San Francisco, California. Reports of strange lights in the sky were no joke. They were, in fact, alien invaders. The lights could be seen every night, darting through the sky for days after. After the initial war nerves were put to rest. Folks started calling the strange lights “Foo Fighters” after the cartoon strip. On April 9, 1944, a strange dense fog rolled in over the city. That’s when the Walinzi invaders attacked under the cover of the fog, unseen until they were on shore. They easily wiped out the mighty gun batteries protecting the Presidio and the city. The ...

His day job consists of crafting interstellar travel permits, and off the clock, he's busy with not-so-secretly pining after his neighbor, Olivia. But when a murder scene featuring a portal briefcase as the only clue blasts him out of his comfortable and somewhat neurotic routine, Roger finds himself partnering with a detective whose personality is as rough as sandpaper and whose methods are as unconventional as Roger's are meticulous....

Leeyak-dar was the leader of a powerful Krayd band, until he reached out and attacked a distant Commonwealth colony world. His defeat at Freyja and the loss of the Krayd outpost to the Fourth Fleet left him humiliated and demoted. Now he has a chance to regain his standing by stealing a starship from the very people who defeated him. He's confident - despite an over-the-hill raiding ship, an inexperienced crew and interference from those in his own band who would rather see him fail. Dar has a plan, all he needs is a little luck to prove he's still got it! What could go wrong?
