Dogs of War

Tchaikovsky A: Dogs of War

The end of the world has been and gone. There was no one great natural disaster, no all-consuming world war, no catastrophic pandemic. Rather scores of storms, droughts and floods; dozens of vicious, selfish regional conflicts that only destroyed what could no longer be rebuilt. No single finishing stroke for Earth's great global human society, but you can still bleed to death from a thousand cuts. The Red Planet fared better. Where Earth fell apart, Mars pulled together. Engineered men and beasts, aided by Bees, an outlawed distributed intelligence, survived through co-operation, because there was simply no alternative. Fast forward to the present day. A signal ? "For the sake of what once was. We beg you. Help." ? reaches Mars. How could they not help? A consortium of Martian work crews gather the resources for a mission: a triumphal return to the blue-green world of their ancestors. And now here they are ? three hundred million kilometres from home. And it has all already gone horribly wrong.

A visionary and atmospheric gothic fantasy about necromancy, vengeance, and soul-consuming love, the first in a duology from the Sunday Times bestselling author of A Study in Drowning and Lady Macbeth. 'A gorgeously gruesome Gothic romance.' Jacqueline Carey 'Reid is a singular, extraordinary talent.' Sasha Peyton Smith 'A powerful and essential voice.' Samantha Shannon ________________________________________________ Once there was an island where the dead walked the earth, and seven noble houses ruled by the arcane secrets of necromancy. A conqueror's blade brought them low, burning their libraries, killing their lords, and extinguishing their eldritch magic. But defiant against the new order stands the House of Teeth and its last living members: beautiful Marozia, the heiress to the House, and her cousin, the uncanny Lady Agnes. Though she has not spoken a word in seven years, Agnes is the true carrier of the House's legacy. And she has her orders. She must recapture the secrets of death magic and avenge her family's fallen honour. She must arrange the betrothal of her beloved cousin Marozia to Liuprand, heir to the conqueror's throne, for access to the forbidden library in his grotesquely grand castle. Revenge burns in Agnes's heart, but so do stranger passions - and it is Liuprand, the golden prince, who speaks to her soul. This passion is as treasonous as it is powerful, poisoning the kingdom's roots and threatening to tear the already shattered realm in two. For Agnes's final order is the gravest: She must not fall in love. Book One of The House of Teeth Duology

The Demon King

AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A man must fight for his planet against impossible odds when gamers from Earth attempt to remotely annihilate it in this epic, fast-paced novel from the New York Times bestselling author of the smash-hit Dungeon Crawler Carl. All colonist Oliver Lewis ever wanted to do was run the family ranch with his sister, maybe play a gig or two with his band, and keep his family’s aging fleet of intelligent agriculture bots ticking as long as possible. He figures it will be a good thing when the transfer gate finally opens all the way and restores instant travel and full communication between Earth and his planet, New Sonora. But there’s a complication. Even though the settlers were promised they’d be left in peace, Earth’s government now has other plans. The colossal Apex Industries is hired to commence an “eviction action.” But maximizing profits will always be Apex’s number one priority. Why spend money printing and deploying AI soldiers when they can turn it into a game? Why not charge bored Earthers for the opportunity to design their own war machines and remotely pilot them from the comfort of their homes? The game is called Operation Bounce House. Oliver and his friends soon find themselves fighting for their lives against machines piloted by gamers who’ve paid a premium for the privilege. With the help of an old book from his grandfather and a bucket of rusty parts, Oliver is determined to defend the only home he’s ever known.

Operation Bounce House

DIE QUANTEN-LÜGE: Wenn die Logik die Zeit tötet
Was bleibt von der Realität, wenn die Kausalität selbst zur größten Lüge der Zivilisation wird?

Willkommen in der kalten, künstlich kohärenten Welt von F.G. Stier, dem technischen Autor und einstigen Softwareentwickler, dessen Werke die Grenzen zwischen Science-Fiction, Philosophie und Kybernetik verschwimmen lassen.

Als technischer Autor nutze ich die inimitable temptation der Worte als Bildmaschine.

Dieser Roman ist mehr als nur Utopie; er ist eine hochpräzise Analyse der Zivilisationsmaschine, deren einziger Zweck die Eliminierung von Entropie und die Maximierung der Vorhersehbarkeit ist. In einer Welt, die von Künstlicher Intelligenz (KI) und dem omnipräsenten Code gesteuert wird, beginnt die brutale Suche nach der Identität - und nach der reinen Existenz.

Die Antwort liegt im Verborgenen. Tief im Keller, fernab der statistischen Redundanz des Alltags, steht Der Kausal-Anker (KA), ein poetisch-mechanisches Logik-Konstrukt, das die einzigen wahren Axiome festhält. Seine Anzeigen verfolgen nicht Volt oder Ampere, sondern die Entropische Drift des menschlichen Geistes. Doch um die Wahrheit zu finden, muss man das Fundament des Universums zerstören: die Zeit.

Dieses Werk dient als philosophische Analyse und literarische Dekonstruktion der Begriffe "Nichts", "Existenz" und "Code" im fiktionalen Kontext des Sci-Fi-Romans von F.G. Stier. Es dient der logischen Verankerung des wissenschaftlich-philosophischen Konzepts der zeitlosen Verursachung.

F.G. Stier konfrontiert Sie mit logischen, kalten und unheimlich realistischen Nuancen. Es erwartet Sie ein bizarres, surrealistisches Abenteuer, das Sie zwingt, Ihre eigene Wahrnehmung zu hinterfragen. Ist der Code alles, was übrig bleibt? Oder ist das Bewusstsein selbst die letzte, unlösbare mathematische Absurdität?

Tauchen Sie ein in die Nüchternheit der Logik und die Schönheit der Kälte. Finden Sie Ihre Identität, bevor der Code sie für Sie festlegt.

Jenseits der Quanten-Lüge: Warum Absurdität die einzige Wahrheit ist, die die Zivilisationsmaschinen vernichtet

DIE QUANTEN-LÜGE

Beneath Trilogy

Hundreds of years before the Illum ruled supreme, humanity risked everything to rebuild after a devastating war in this explosive New York Times bestselling dystopian romance. 'Ariel Sullivan is a writer to watch' - Sarah J. Maas, #1 New York Times bestselling author of A Court of Thorns and Roses Twenty-three-year-old Sasha Cadell knows time is running out in the underground city, filled with survivors of the nuclear fallout six years ago. She works in tunnel expansion, trying to escape the memories of those she lost. Her bleak existence is upended when Tristian Hayes, a stunningly handsome, frustratingly determined commander of the Force, recruits her to join him. With his elite team of fighters, they are to embark on a secret mission to the surface. Sasha is thrust into a brutal training with stakes far beyond mere survival. The fate of remaining humankind depends on their success - or failure. As she confronts her own demons, Sasha finds both allies and foes in the training program, as well as a sizzling attraction between her and Tristian that threatens the walls she's built around her heart. But under the surface, secrets and deception run as rampant as illnesses. And not everyone will survive the rise of a power more terrifying than anything they've ever known. Ariel Sullivan's Beneath is perfect for fans of romantasy and dystopian fiction where Fourth Wing meets The Hunger Games. 'I read it in one sitting' - Veronica Roth, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Divergent on Conform

The Pandominion

A LONE OUTLAW, HAUNTED BY HER PAST, WITH ALL THE MULTIVERSE AGAINST HER . . . **WINNER OF THE PHILIP K. DICK AWARD** 'A sweeping story of vengeance, love and redemption, set against a backdrop of unimaginably vast interdimensional conflict' Claire North, award-winning author of 84K and Slow Gods Discover this thrilling stand-alone science fiction adventure set in the world of the Pandominion from the million-copy bestselling M. R. Carey, author of The Girl With All the Gifts and the Philip K. Dick Award-shortlisted Infinity Gate. Sometimes the fate of entire worlds can be decided by a woman with nothing to lose, and the smartest gun in the multiverse in her hand . . . This is the story of Bess - or Dog-Bitch Bess as she came to be known. It's the story of the gun she carried, whose name was Wakeful Slim. It's the story of the dead man who carried that gun before her and left a piece of himself inside it. And it's the tale of how she turned from teacher, to renegade, and ultimately to hero. This is also the tale of the last violent engagements in an inter-dimensional war - one of the most brutal the multiverse had ever seen. This is how Bess learned the truth about her world. Came to it the hard way, through pain and loss and the reckless spilling of blood, and carried it with her like a brand on her soul. And once she knew it - knew for sure how badly she'd been used - she had no option but to do something about it. From one of science fiction's most original and revolutionary voices comes a tale like no other. Vengeance always comes with a price . . .
