A year after the Commonwealth won the war with the Theocracy, the interstellar cruise liner Supreme is on its maiden voyage, carrying a host of aristocrats thrilled to be sharing in a wondrous adventure among the stars. Then a collision with a pirate ship leaves the cruiser powerless and becalmed in hyperspace. And they’re not alone. Now, the mysterious force that’s living on this floating graveyard is coming for Supreme’s crew and passengers. As madness starts to tear at their minds, they must fight to survive in a strange alien realm.

When Kell and his team return to Earth many years after their departure, they find that their world has changed almost beyond recognition. Not only has a second wave of greenhouse flooding caused sea levels to rise, but society has been changed by the consequences of the climate shift. Few people want to face Jordan Kell's news. He must convince Earth's new rulers that the human race is in danger of extinction unless it acts to forestall the death wave coming from the galaxy's heart.

Als die Titan in eine unbekannte Region des Raums vordringt, werden die Telepathen in ihrer Crew - einschließlich des Diplomatie-Offiziers Deanna Troi - von einem fremden Schrei der Qualen überwältigt. Das führt die Crew zu dem Ort eines schockierenden Blutbads: Eine Zivilisation interstellarer "Walfänger" macht Jagd auf eine bekannte Spezies intelligenter im Raum lebender Giganten.

Onboard an ancient starship, Killeen and the Bishop tribe escape the mech-ruled world of Snowglade. Seeking refuge on a faraway planet, they discover vast wonders: an organic life-form as large as a world, a planet-coring cosmic string, a community of humans ruled by a brutal tyrant, and ultimately an alien race more awesome than any they have encountered. As they battle for survival against these myriad dangers, Killeen and his crew will gain an unforeseen ally - one that may determine humanity’s true destiny.

Few writers have successful blended hard science and speculation with fully realized characters as Gregory Benford has in his critically acclaimed novels. Now he draws us into a vortex of mystery and danger at the heart of the galaxy in his dazzling epic drama, Furious Gulf.

Millennia of conflict between humans and mechs have driven the human race to near-extinction. Now, as the fierce AI mechs begin their final assault on mankind, it soon becomes apparent that three men – three generations in a family of voyagers – are their targets. Toby Bishop, his father, Killeen Bishop, and his grandfather, Nigel Walmsley, each carry a piece of the lethal secret that can destroy their enemies. But hunted through space and time by relentless assassins, they have no idea that they possess the only weapon that can save humanity.

Quando l'IA Lovelace si risveglia in un corpo artificiale - un kit persona che rinomina Sidra - il viaggio che la condurrà a Porto Coriol con gli amici Pepper e Blue diventa un'esplorazione del mondo che la circonda e di una nuova esistenza diametralmente opposta alla sua vita sulla Wayfarer. Alla ricerca di uno scopo che vada oltre ciò per cui è stata programmata, confusa dai limiti che paradossalmente la sua libertà le impone, tenterà di comprendere il proprio ruolo nell'universo e scoprirà quanto è difficile, ma anche entusiasmante, condividerlo con specie e razze diverse.

The conclave continually pressures the Imperium Empire by ousting peacekeepers and Radag mercenaries from imperial territories. This interdicts resources bound for Krackus worlds from the suborned races and exacerbates Imperium distribution protocols. On Jegstrat, a populous Krackus world, declining grain shipments lead to favoring distribution to large companies. Saboteurs plan to slow production at Imperial Grains, the largest processing plant. The goal is to rebalance grain distribution, but the attack goes terribly awry, causing death and great damage.

If you like your space adventures with a side of sarcasm and a cargo hold full of questionable life choices, Ray Guns and Late Fees delivers. Ride shotgun with a pair of blue-collar spacers as they sail through the stars, patching together jobs with duct tape and stubborn optimism. Out here, pirates aren’t legends, they’re coworkers you haven’t shot at yet. Every deal comes with fine print written in plasma fire, every port hides someone looking to cheat you, and every “simple haul” has a nasty habit of turning into a running gunfight before the coffee gets cold.

The discovery does not arrive as a warning or a revelation. It arrives as math that refuses to fail. One month before anyone knows, a small group of scientists confirms what cannot be undone. An extinction level event is coming. Forty years remain. To survive it, humanity must leave the solar system at least six years before impact, escaping a lethal cone of effect that will erase everything left behind. There is no solution that saves everyone. There is barely time to plan at all. What follows is not a race to warn the world, but a decision to protect it from the truth.
