From audible.com:

Martha Wells' New York Times and USA Today best-selling Murderbot series exploded onto the scene in 2017, and the world has not been the same, since.

Murderbot returns in its highly anticipated, first full-length stand-alone novel, Network Effect.

You know that feeling when you’re at work and you’ve had enough of people, and then the boss walks in with yet another job that needs to be done right this second or the world will end, but all you want to do is go home and binge your favorite shows? And you're a sentient murder machine programmed for destruction? Congratulations, you're Murderbot.

Come for the pew-pew space battles, stay for the most relatable AI you’ll listen to this century.

I’m usually alone in my head, and that’s where 90-plus percent of my problems are.

When Murderbot's human associates (not friends, never friends) are captured and another not-friend from its past requires urgent assistance, Murderbot must choose between inertia and drastic action.

Drastic action it is, then.

SPECIAL 20TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION —THE MOST IMPORTANT AND INFLUENTIAL SCIENCE FICTION NOVEL OF THE PAST TWO DECADES

Twenty years ago, it was as if someone turned on a light. The future blazed into existence with each deliberate word that William Gibson laid down. The winner of Hugo, Nebula, and Philip K. Dick Awards, Neuromancer didn't just explode onto the science fiction scene—it permeated into the collective consciousness, culture, science, and technology.

Today, there is only one science fiction masterpiece to thank for the term "cyberpunk," for easing the way into the information age and Internet society. Neuromancer's virtual reality has become real. And yet, William Gibson's gritty, sophisticated vision still manages to inspire the minds that lead mankind ever further into the future.

"Tight and compelling...  Welcome to the relentless world of Jack Reacher and his impressive tendency to be in the wrong place at the right time....  [Lee] Child has created an iconic character that other thriller writers try to emulate but don't come close to matching."
- Associated Press

Former military cop Jack Reacher has arrived at the headquarters of the 110th MP, his old unit near Washington, D.C., the closest thing to a home he's ever had.  He's there to meet - in person - the new commanding officer, Major Susan Turner, so far just a warm, intriguing voice on the phone.  But Turner isn't there and Reacher is shocked to be charged with a crime with serious consequences.

When threatened, you can run or fight.

Reacher fights, aiming to find Turner and clear his name, barely a step ahead of the army, and the FBI, and the D.C. Metro police, and four unidentified thugs.  It is a race for the truth that will make Reacher question who he is, what he's done, and the very future of his untethered life on the open road.

"An adrenaline-charged, action-packed thriller... impossible to put down."
- Lansing State Journal

"The dialogue has never been sharper....  The pages turn themselves."
- San Antonio Express-News

Don't miss Lee Child's short story "High Heat" in the back of this book.

The classic talc
of Bastian and the book that
magically comes to life

Bastian Balthazar Bux is shy, awkward, and certainly not heroic.  His only escape is reading books.  When Bastian happens upon an old book called The Neverending Story, he's swept into the magical world of Fantastica - so much that he finds he has actually become a character in the story!  And when he realizes that this mysteriously enchanted world is in great danger, he also discovers that he has been the one chosen to save it.  Can Bastian overcome the barrier between reality and his imagination in order to save Fantastica?

I knew we were both in mortal danger.  Still, in that instant, I felt well.  Whole.  I could feel my heart racing in my chest, the blood pulsing hot and fast through my veins again.  My lungs filled deep with the sweet scent that came off his skin.  It was like there had never been any whole in my chest.  I was perfect - not healed, but as if there had never been a wound in the first place.

Legions of readers are hungry for more.
Give in to temptation....

The scions of a falling house must navigate a world of corporate warfare to maintain their family's status in the moon's vicious political atmosphere.

You must fight for every inch you want to gain in the moon's near-feudal society. And that is just what Adriana Corta did.

As the leader of the moon's newest ''dragon,'' Adriana has wrested control of the moon's helium-3 industry from the Mackenzie Metal Corporation and fought to earn her family's new status. Now, at the twilight of her life, Adriana finds her corporation, Corta Helio, surrounded by the many enemies she made during her meteoric rise. If the Corta family is to survive, Adriana's five children must defend their mother's empire from her many enemies -- and each other.

A FRIGHTENING NEW DANGER

It's 1996, and Reacher is still in the army.  In the morning they give him a medal, and that night he must go back to school.  Off the grid.  Out of sight, out of mind.

Two other men are in the classroom - an FBI agent and a CIA analyst - each wondering what the hell they are doing there.

Then they find out: A Jihadist sleeper cell in Hamburg, Germany, has received an unexpected visitor - a Saudi courier.  A CIA asset, undercover inside the cell, has overheard the courier whisper "The American wants a hundred million dollars."

Reacher and his two new friends are told to find that American.  Reacher recruits the best soldier he has ever worked with: Sergeant Frances Neagley.  Their mission heats up in more ways than one, while always keeping their eyes on the prize:  If they don't get their man, the world will suffer an epic act of terrorism.

Others. They walk among us. Observing.
Set in contemporary Moscow, where shape shifters, vampires, and street-sorcerers linger in the shadows, Night Watch is the first book of the hyper-imaginative fantasy pentalogy from best-selling Russian author Sergei Lukyanenko.

This epic saga chronicles the eternal war of the “Others,” an ancient race of humans with supernatural powers who must swear allegiance to either the Dark or the Light. The agents of the Dark – the Night Watch – oversee nocturnal activity, while the agents of the Light keep watch over the day. For a thousand years both sides have maintained a precarious balance of power, but an ancient prophecy has decreed that a supreme Other will one day emerge, threatening to tip the scales. Now, that day has arrived. When a mid-level Night Watch agent named Anton stumbles upon a cursed young woman – an uninitiated Other with magnificent potential – both sides prepare for a battle that could lay waste to the entire city, possible the world. With language that throbs like darkly humorous hard-rock lyrics about blood and power, freedom and responsibility, Night Watch is a chilling, cutting-edge thriller, a pulse-pounding ride of fusion fiction that will leave you breathless for the next instalment.

SERGEI LUKYANENKO was born in Kazakhstan and educated as a psychiatrist.  He began publishing science fiction in the 1980s and has published over twenty-five books.  The three volumes of the Night Watch series have sold more than two million copies worldwide.

The planet is isolated from the rest of the universe, unable to seek help as it's targeted by hostile aliens. Bienvenido's ruling authorities have slowly responded to this gradual infiltration, but they have no idea that a highly organized invasion is now under way, designed to wipe out all human life on the planet. All factions must work together to survive. Unfortunately, due to prejudice against enhanced Eliter humans and crippling technophobia, the parochial government won't collaborate.

Kysandra, known as the Warrior Angel, heads up the Eliter resistance. With their enhanced capabilities and technological know-how, they could avert disaster, but only if the authorities stop hunting them at every turn. Then, as both resistance and government are caught in a desperate race to save lives, the planet receives an unexpected visitor. As events escalate, petty power-plays, politics, and age-old prejudices may prove fatal. And as the more sophisticated hostiles can hijack a human body, humanity is undermined by spies within - wearing the faces of family and friends.

Perihelion Night on the wooded moon Verd. A time of strange sightings, ghosts, and celebration before the morn, when Lord Esnic marries the beautiful Lady Ria.

On Wednesday 27 February 1985 the BBC announced that their longest running sci-fi series, Doctor Who, was to be suspended. Anxious fans worldwide, worried that this might mean an end to the Time Lord's travels, flooded the BBC with letters of protest. Eighteen months later the show returned to the TV screens.

But missing from the Doctor's adventures was the series that would have been made and shown during those lost eighteen months. Now, available for the first time as a book, is one of those stories:

THE NIGHTMARE FAIR

Drawn into 'the nexus of the primeval cauldron of Space-Time itself,' the Doctor and Peri are somewhat surprised to find themselves at Blackpool Pleasure Beach.

Is it really just chance that has brought them to the funfair? Or is their arrival somehow connected with the sinister presence of a rather familiar Chinese Mandarin?

I HAVE DONE ENOUGH!

Ace has never known the Doctor so withdrawn and melancholic. He is avoiding her company, seeking solace in the forgotten rooms and labyrinthine passages of his ancient time machine.

Perhaps he will find the peace he years for on his favourite planet, Earth, in the second half of the twentieth century - in the isolated village of Crook Marsham, to be precise, in 1968, the year of peace, love and understanding.

But one by one the villagers are being killed. The Doctor has to act, but for once he seems helpless, indecisive, powerless.

What are the signals from space that are bombarding the radio telescope on the moor? What is the significance of the local legends from the Civil War? And what is the aeons-old power that the Doctor is unable to resist?

VIZ GRAPHIC NOVEL

NO NEED FOR TENCHI!
Science fiction comedy based on the anime series from Pioneer, as seen on the Cartoon Network! It all started when high school student Tenchi freed the alien pirate Ryoko from her captivity on Earth. Soon enough, her friends and enemies showed up: alien princess Ayeka, mad scientist Washu, ditzy space cop Mihoshi... Surrounded by beautiful, feuding alien women, poor Tenchi is either the luckiest or the most miserable boy on Earth!

NOW I'LL SHOW YOU MY TRUE POWER
Just when they thought they had undone her brainwashing, Ayeka pulls a Patty Hearst and flees back into the hands of Prince Garyu, taking Sasami with her!  Now the Tenchi household must follow Garyu into hyperspace to the planet Oku-II, to rescue the two princesses and save Earth from shockwaves of destruction!  But why has Garyu chosen Ayeka?  And why must Ayeka kill Tenchi?  Surprises, sacrifices and a terrible battle await our heroes in the climax of No Need for Tenchi! - and if that sounds too serious, there's two bonus stories, including one about Sasami's hiccups.

"The all-original plot lines run loosely from the OAV series, and Hitoshi Okuda has easily continued the tradition, if not improved upon it.  The character interaction is lively as always, the humor is ever-present in some form but avoids running too wild, and the action is well portrayed and easy to follow.  It's no wonder it's still hard to stop Tenchi Muyô! after all these years if it continues to be this fun and interesting."

The hilarious TENCHI graphic novel picks up where the first six animation episodes left off.  The trouble and fun began when high school student Tenchi inadvertantly released the legendary demon Ryoko from his grandfather's shrine.  Turned out Ryoko was actually a marooned space pirate!  Since she has become Tenchi's unwanted house guest, she has made it her duty to tease the hapless youth whenever possible.  And soon other alien women came to plague Tenchi: Ayeka, an alien princess; Sasami, her mischievious sister; and Washu, Ryoko's mad scientist "mother."  Not to mention Ryo-Oh-Ki, that adorable little spaceship who looks like a cross between a cat and a rabbit.

Since their epic battle with Kagato, things haven't quieted down in the least.  Now Tenchi's troubles double - in the form of Minagi, a dead ringer for Ryoko, who attacks out hapless friends and then conveniently develops amnesia.  Turns out she's just a pawn of alien warrior Yakage, who arrives soon after in hopes of stealing Tenchi's miraculous sword and kidnapping beautiful princess Ayeka!

The gripping new Jack Reacher thriller from
the #1 New York Times bestselling author
Lee Child and Andrew Child

In Gerrardsville, Colorado, a woman dies under the wheels of a moving bus.  The death is ruled a suicide.  But Jack Reacher saw what really happened: A man in a gray hoodie and jeans, moving stealthily, pushed the victim to her demise before swiftly grabbing the dead woman's purse and strolling away.

When another homicide is ruled an accident, Reacher knows this is no coincidence.  With a killer on the loose, Reacher has no time to waste to track down those responsible.  But he is unaware that these crimes are part of something much larger and more far-reaching: an arsonist out for revenge, a foster kid on the run, a cabal of powerful people involved in a secret conspiracy with many moving parts.  There is no room for error, but they make a grave one.  They don't consider Reacher a threat.  "There's too much at stake to start running from shadows."  But Reacher isn't a shadow.  He is flesh and blood.  And relentless when it comes to making things right.

For when the threat is Reacher, there is No Plan B.

"No Plan B is not to be missed: a perfectly plotted, fast-paced thriller, with bigger twists than ever before.  It's no wonder Jack Reacher is everyone's favorite rebel hero."
- KARIN SLAUGHTER

Noah's Ark:
Fable or Fact?

Does Noah's Ark still exist?  Can modern man still believe the ancient Biblical story of the Flood?  Can we accept the as truth the ever-increasing rumors that Noah's great ship has been sighted, and even photographed and entered, during the past century of time?  Is it possible that the widely-publicized and frequently-displayed pieces of hand-tooled timber recovered by Fernand Navarra from a crevasse high on Mount Ararat in 1955, and again in 1969, were once actually a part of the Ark?

These, and many other questions relating to this controversial subject, have stirred the imagination and excited the curiosity of many thoughtful persons today.  To provide satisfactory answers to as many of these questions as possible is the purpose of this book.  It is the result of 27 years of persistent, painstaking investigation into the subject by Eryl Cummings, and contains authenticated accounts of the various reported modern sightings of the Ark since 1840.

This fascinating book by Violet Cummings, wife of the famed explorer who has five times climbed the Mountain of Ararat in attempts to rediscover the Ark of Noah, examines the evidence of the ten expeditions who have sighted the Ark in the last 117 years.

After more than five hundred years of exile, the heir to the empyre is wary about his sudden reassignment to active duty on the Goblin War’s front lines. His mission to rescue an outpost leads to a dead-end canyon deep inside enemy territory, and his suspicion turns to dread when he discovers the stronghold doesn't exist. But whoever went to the trouble of planning his death to look like a casualty of war didn't know he would be assigned to the Seventh Sikaria Auxiliary Squadron. In the depths of an unforgiving jungle, a legend is about to be born, and the world of Elan will never be the same.
