Sol 0, calendrier novéen. 17 h 30, heure locale. Le programme de colonisation s’est effondré. Et pourtant, éparpillés à la surface novéenne, les survivants constatent que leur cauchemar n’est pas terminé. Pièges mortels, prédateurs génocatalysés, forêts empoisonnées... Spes-Nova n’est pas un monde hospitalier. C’est un enfer déguisé. Le rassemblement commence à peine qu’une mystérieuse malédiction frappe la lune de la géante gazeuse. Une Terre Grise, morte, qui semble asphyxier le monde. En fin de compte, les Lostseekers ne sont peut-être pas le plus grand danger.

À celui des guerriers du silence qui échappent à l'inquisition mentale et voyagent sur les pensées recouvre-t-il encore une réalité ?

The only way to master Fate and protect them, though, is to place them directly in harm's way in the ultimate gambit.

Tamsyn Muir’s Gideon the Ninth unveils a solar system of swordplay, cut-throat politics, and lesbian necromancers. Her characters leap out of the audio, as skillfully animated as arcane revenants.

Jin Rou wanted to be a cultivator. A man powerful enough to defy the heavens. A master of martial arts. A lord of spiritual power. Unfortunately for him, he died, and now I’m stuck in his body. Arrogant Masters? Heavenly Tribulations? All that violence and bloodshed? Yeah, no thanks. I’m getting out of here. Farm life sounds pretty great. Tilling a field by hand is fun when you’ve got the strength of ten men—though maybe I shouldn’t have fed those Spirit Herbs to my pet rooster.

When Alice Verianna went to sleep, she was just another teen from the Denver suburbs. She definitely didn't expect to be transported to a magical alternate dimension, inhabited by monsters and presided over by a mysterious System. Here, people resemble RPG characters and everyone has access to their own status screens. Grappling with the mechanics of the elusive System isn't the only challenge Alice faces. It seems an underground organization known as the Society of Starry Eyes has taken a particular interest in other dimensions.
