Drawn to him like a moth to a flame, she has to find out what Daniel is so desperate to keep secret… even if it kills her.
Leo Graf was an effective engineer… Safety Regs weren’t just the rule book he swore by; he’d helped write them. All that changed on his assignment to the Cay Habitat. Leo was profoundly uneasy with the corporate exploitation of his bright new students—till that exploitation turned to something much worse. He hadn’t anticipated a situation where the right thing to do was neither save, nor in the rules…Leo Graf adopted 1000 quaddies—now all he had to do was teach them to be free.
The human Imperium stands at its height of glory - thousands of worlds have been brought to heel by the conquering armies of mankind. At the peak of his powers, Warmaster Horus wields absolute control - but can even he resist the corrupting whispers of Chaos?
If I hadn't seen it for myself, I'd swear it couldn't be true: my brother, Christian, living in a trailer park and working at a karaoke bar. W're talking about the snob who'd probably sniff the plasma packets and 'em back in huff if the blood type wasn't the right vintage. But after centuries of living in the undead fast lane, he's made up his mind that this is exactly where he needs to spend the rest of eternity, atoning for his many, many sins. But sometimes things just don't work out like you think they will. Sometimes, your hell can turn into your heaven. And thanks to Christian's chatty neighbour and boss, Jolee, things seem to be getting a whole lot nicer in Shady Fork Mobile Estates. Not that either of them has the first idea how to have a normal relationship—we are talking about a woman who's only dated dead-beats, and a guy who's only dated the dead. Well, nobody's perfect.
Oh, Brother!I'm watching my brother swagger through our New Your City apartment… smiling. Rhys, the detached, surly man who turned brooding into an art form. But he's not brooding now. No, he's practically threatening to pistol whip me for shaking hands with the beautiful, half-dressed creature named Jane who just tried to sneak out of his bedroom. Weird. Brother Grim has a sex drive?That's not all that has me freaked out. Something terrible happened last night, something that made Rhs break his own rule and save the life of a mortal. Trouble is he doesn't remember anything from the past two hundred years. Like that he's a vampire, not a Regency viscount with a British accent.All I know is this mortal woman who managed to touch my brother's frozen heart, nad I, Sebastian Young, will do whatever it takes to help him keep her…

Dalle prime invasioni di H. G. Wells, il tema della guerra contro i «mostri» di mondi lontani ? stato spesso trattato dagli scrittori di fantascienza. Ma crediamo che questo romanzo sia senza precedenti e meriti di essere segnalato particolarmente ai lettori. Si tratta a nostro parere di una delle opere pi? riuscite e originali nella vastissima produzione di Robert Heinlein. La storia ? raccontata in prima persona e in un linguaggio secco e pittoresco da un soldato dell’esercito terrestre, un ragazzo che scappa di casa per arruolarsi nella fanteria dello spazio (regina, a quanto pare, anche delle battaglie cosmiche), partecipa ...
The trilogy depicts an Earth-like world on a moon which orbits a gas giant, inhabited by a species of highly evolved, sentient Tyrannosaurs called Quintaglios, among various other creatures from the late cretaceous period, imported to this moon by aliens 65 million years prior to the story.
'The Cylinder is a massive structure rising miles above the surface of an unknown future Earth. Axxter, the hero of Farewell Horizontal, has forsaken the dull, nine-to-five life of Cylinder's Horizontal levels to go where the action is – the Vertical, where freelancers, warring tribes and other nomadic types live along the slings and cables of Cylinder's outer edge. His dream is to be a successful graffex artist, designing armour and ikons for the various tribes – and, like all citizens, he is linked by a microchip in his brain to the complex computer system that runs the economy. But when Axxter accepts a really big job – creating all-new military imagery for one of Cylinder's most powerful tribes – he begins a dangerous journey that will take him to the far side of Cylinder – and beyond.
