Corridors of Time begins as a Time Opera. That is, it's a Space Opera
only it involves a vast war through time instead of space. Malcolm, an
ordinary college student who happens to be a martial arts expert, is
recruited by a mysterious, imperious, incredibly beautiful woman to
help her recover a treasure. He agrees and promptly learns he's
actually been recruited to fight in a war between good and evil. Soon
the twist comes in. He learns more and begins to suspect he's fighting
on the wrong side. Or is he? Is this just an ordinary war? Or are both
sides equally bad? Or is he misunderstanding the situation? This is
that rarity, a slambang, non-stop action thriller filled with fighting,
romance, thought, philosophy and a very serious ethical dilemna. I give
it five stars just for the willingness to explore serious questions
about morality, ethics, the dangers of utopias, free will and the
future of mankind all the while engaging in almost non-stop hand to

moves the town of Sanctuary into an open guerilla conflict on the

stories occurring in the same location has strengths and weaknesses. On
the one hand, it is intersting to see the different perspectives each
writer brings. On the other hand, interesting ideas generated by one
writer or poorly followed up, or not at all. Too, there have been so
many authors writing about so many characters that a glossary has
become a must to keep track of who is whom. Nevertheless, Wings of Omen

NASA, NATO, and the UN sent explorers to the asteroid's surface...and
discovered marvels and mysteries to drive researchers mad. For the
Stone was from space--but perhaps not "our "space; it came from the
future--but perhaps not "our" future; and within the hollowed asteroid
was Thistledown. The remains of a vanished civilization. A
"human"--English, Russian, and Chinese-speaking--civilization. Seven

The
Jovian Astronautical-Biological Orbital Laboratory circles Jupiter and
its moons--a metal shell bathed in lethal radiation, held in tenuous
place by the gravity of the massive gas giant like a fragile glass
ornament in a monstrous fist.
For seventeen-year-old Matt Bohles and his friends, "the Can" is home.
Life
onboard the aging space station is cramped, spartan, and dangerous. Its
mission--to monitor incoming signals and transmissions in search of
alien life--has so far proven fruitless.
It is the only world Matt has ever known.
But
now, as the threshold of adulthood--with its onset of new questions,
confusions and feelings --Matt Bohles faces an impending crisis that
threatens everything he knows and is. For unless he can prove himself
an invaluable member of the scientific team--and quickly--he will be
exiled to a filthy, perilous and unfamiliar hell called Earth. |

handful of people belonging to the super- race genetically engineered
by Dr. Hyatt of Dunhill University. Sena and her Tetra lover Sam
attended Dunhill and did their best to ignore the sneers of the

mental abilities.
But the resentment of the "normals" gets to
Maurey, the most brilliant Tetra, and he plots a diabolic plan to
overpower the human race. Suddenly, Sena is caught in a deadly triangle
with Sam and Maurey that might mean the end of the Tetras and the world

mysterious box he couldn't open and a confused warning against some
dread warlord or wizard--he couldn't be sure of which from her final
ravings. Then the grim warlord Halfdane came to abduct him by force
into the Realm of the Alfar.
Now he was a virtual prisoner in
the hill fort of Halfdane, caught in a bitter war between light and
dark elves. And he seemed trapped on the losing side. His only hope was
to escape and somehow learn what powerful magic was contained in the
box and which everyone seemed bent on stealing from him.
Of
course, there were a few walking dead, a cursed sword, and a multitude
of savage trolls to be faced. But the strange wizard Jotull was

Pitt treads upon territory previously known only to legend as he
investigates the sinking of a luxury cruise ship, the "Emerald
Dolphin." Valhalla Rising, the national bestseller by Clive Cussler, is

writes Publishers Weekly, and he proved it again with the intricate
plotting and astonishing set pieces of his number-one bestselling

the answer is Valhalla Rising. It is July 2003. In the middle of its
maiden voyage, the luxury cruise ship Emerald Dolphin suddenly catches
fire and sinks. What caused it? Why didn't the alarms go off? What was
its connection to the revolutionary new engines powering the ship? NUMA
special projects director Dirk Pitt races to rescue the passengers and
investigate the disaster, but he has no idea of the bizarre events that
are about to engulf him. Before the next few weeks are over, Pitt will
find himself confronted by an extraordinary series of monsters, both
human and mechanical, modern and ancient. He will tread upon territory
previously known only to legend. And, at the end of it all, though many
lives will be lost, and many saved, it is Pitt's own life that will be
changed forever. . . . Filled with dazzling suspense and breathtaking
action, Valhalla Rising is Cussler at the height of his storytelling
powers. |

The Borg -- half organic being and half machine, they are the most
feared race in the known galaxy. In their relentless quest for
technological perfection, they have destroyed entire star systems,
enslaved countless peoples, and, in a single brutal attack, decimated
Starfleet's mightiest vesels. Only a final desperate gambit by Captain

Life
on Earth is good. Disease is checked, hunger ended, and war and
suffering abolished, with liberty and justice and a high standard of
living for all.
But Paul Formain, a strangely gifted young engineer, doesn't believe a word of it.
So
he comes to Walter Blunt's Chantry Guild, whose motto is "Destruct!"
and whose stated goal is the end of civilization. There are Alternate
Laws at work in the world, says the Chantry Guild; Walter Blunt has
pledged his life to them, and to the principle of destruction as a
positive force.
Even more disturbingly, the Alternate Laws appear to work.
After
centuries of hope and progress, and the triumph of science, something
strange is happening to mankind. And whatever it is, it's going to be
big. |

HE'LL
JUST SLAY YOU...Widely known for the grim and gritty battlefield
realism of his bestselling adventures of Hammer's Slammers, and for
other popular novels of military science fiction, David Drake now takes
deadly aim at the funnybone. Meet the goblin paratroopers and learn why
a sane goblin would want to jump out of a perfectly good
lighter-than-air balloon. Follow the problems of a team of hard-boiled,
fearless space cops who have to operate under the niggling restrictions
of a politically correct alien supervisor. March into the desert with a
troop of rough, tough mercenary elves and humans who have to lose a
dangerous magic talisman so that it will stay lost, all while being
hectored by that same obnoxiously vocal talisman, which doesn't want to
be lost. Enjoy a collaboration by Drake and Larry Niven that is as
unlike the "Man-Kzin Wars" universe as it is delightful. And more. And
laugh all the way to the gallows. |

Then, finding the newly blackened wasteland much to its liking, it

Of the Old Magic he knew very little. But he was sworn to defeat

home his brand-new Corvette one day to discover a strange doll on his
doorstep. It's a rag doll made entirely of white cloth, with no face
or hair or clothes. Where the eyes should be, there are two crossed
stitches of black thread. Five sets of crossed black stitches mark the
mouth, and another pair form an X over the heart.He brings it into the
house. That night, he hears an odd little popping sound and looks up to
see the crossed stitches over the doll's heart breaking apart. When he
picks up the doll, he feels something pulsing in its chest. Another
thread unravels to reveal a reptilian green eye --and not a doll's eye,

A
towering epic of fantasy, The Pearl, is launched in The Ring of Five
Dragons. Filled with action, color, and the myriad details of another
world, The Pearl is the first great fantasy series of the new
millennium, set to rival Robert Jordan, David Eddings, George R. R.
Martin, Terry Brooks, and Terry Goodkind in popular appeal. This
astonishing first volume opens as the Kundalan people have suffered for
a century under the viciously oppressive, technologically-superior
V'ornn invaders. In the resulting crisis of faith -- why hasn't their
goddess Miina saved them? -- Kundalan religion has fallen under the
control of evil forces from within who forbid the teaching of
traditional sorcery, pretending to have no magic of their own. The
V'ornn's mysterious leaders, the Gyrgon, know better, and search for
the lost Ring of Five Dragons, the key to the door of the fabled
Kundalan Storehouse, and perhaps to Kundalan sorcery as well. But
misused, the Ring is the trigger of seemingly inexorable annihilation
for V'ornn and Kundalan alike. Now from among the oppressed must arise
the hero of prophecy, the Dar Sala-at, who alone can wield the
sorcerous power to save the world.Thus begins a huge epic rooted in the
conflict between spiritual and technological cultures. The twisting
plot raises difficult and provocative moral questions in the course of
a constantly surprising, sometimes shocking, fantastic adventure that
will transport fantasy readers to new heights of enthusiasm, and make
them ask for more. |

world she had come halfway across the galaxy to claim - especially now
that her experiments in racial transmutation were nearing their

Protoculture might have something to say in these matters. But indeed

the first wave, or the miserable welcome in store for its few and sorry

In
his most ambitious project to date, award-winning author Kim Stanley
Robinson utilizes years of research and cutting-edge science in the
first of three novels that will chronicle the colonization of Mars.For
eons, sandstorms have swept the barren desolate landscape of the red
planet. For centuries, Mars has beckoned to mankind to come and conquer
its hostile climate. Now, in the year 2026, a group of one hundred
colonists is about to fulfill that destiny.John Boone, Maya Toitavna,
Frank Chalmers, and Arkady Bogdanov lead a mission whose ultimate goal
is the terraforming of Mars. For some, Mars will become a passion
driving them to daring acts of courage and madness; for others it
offers and opportunity to strip the planet of its riches. And for the
genetic "alchemists, " Mars presents a chance to create a biomedical
miracle, a breakthrough that could change all we know about life...and
death.The colonists place giant satellite mirrors in Martian orbit to
reflect light to the planets surface. Black dust sprinkled on the polar
caps will capture warmth and melt the ice. And massive tunnels,
kilometers in depth, will be drilled into the Martian mantle to create
stupendous vents of hot gases. Against this backdrop of epic upheaval,
rivalries, loves, and friendships will form and fall to pieces--for
there are those who will fight to the death to prevent Mars from ever
being changed.Brilliantly imagined, breathtaking in scope and
ingenuity, Red Mars is an epic scientific saga, chronicling the next
step in human evolution and creating a world in its entirety. Red Mars
shows us a future, with both glory and tarnish, that awes with
complexity and inspires with vision. |

Christmas
is a time of forgiveness -- so when Sophie Aubrey's date, a sexy and
mysterious artist named Olivier, turns her into a vampire, she decides
to forgive him. Especially since being a vampire is just as cool as she
always thought it would be. But there are a few drawbacks she never
expected, like zombies, sleazy French alchemists, inexplicable and
contradictory fairies -- and her roommates: one has abandoned Chicago
and her cat for the Fairy Lands, and the other reacted to vampirism by
embracing it with both hands (and fangs) and gorging herself on human
blood. Ick-o-rama. Plus, Olivier seems to believe that Sophie is his
true love from a thousand years ago. Sophie can forgive that too,
because when Olivier touches her, the whole world falls away -- but
what she can't forgive is that he didn't tell her the whole story, like
how a crazy death fairy has a vendetta against her. This has Sophie
vacillating between entertainment at the fairy's pretensions and being
scared out of her mind that someone who calls himself the God of Death
has got it in for her soul. With the
help of Olivier -- and the sleazy French alchemist, who turns out to be
a vampire's best friend -- Sophie thinks she can defeat the death
fairy. And if she can't, not only will she and Olivier have no future,
she's pretty sure that the whole world is doomed. Who says holidays
can't be fun? |

Alternate
History is historical fiction that examines the ramifications of a
change or changes in known history. Alternate History can use
science-fiction devices -- such as time-travel -- to change history, or
it can simply pick a point where, had things merely happened
differently (for example: Abraham Lincoln decided not to go to the
theater that night, or Henry VIII stayed married to his first wife),
history might have taken another path altogether. -- Alternate History
with Science Fiction. -- The series takes place during WWII and the
warring Allied and Axis powers are forced to combine resources in order
to combat an invading alien species that threatens to conquer the
entire planet. From Pearl Harbor to panzers rolling through Paris to
the Siege of Leningrad and the Battle of Midway, war seethed across the
planet as the flames of destruction rose higher and hotter. And then,
suddenly, the real enemy came. The invaders seemed unstoppable, their
technology far beyond human reach. And never before had men been more
divided. For Jew to unite with Nazi, American with Japanese, and
Russian with German was unthinkable. But the alternative was even
worse. As the fate of the world hung in the balance, slowly, painfully,
humankind took up the shocking challenge. |

The
dying Empire's most cunning and ruthless warlord--Grand Admiral
Thrawn--has taken command of the remnants of the Imperial fleet and
launched a massive campaign aimed at the New Republic's destruction.
With the aid of unimaginable weapons long hidden away by the Emperor on
a backwater planet, Thrawn plans to turn the tide of battle, overwhelm
the New Republic, and impose his iron rule throughout the galaxy.
Meanwhile, Han and Lando Calrissian race against time to find proof of
treason inside the highest Republican Council--only to discover instead
a ghostly fleet of warships that could bring doom to their friends and
victory to their enemies. Yet most dangerous of all is a new Dark Jedi,
risen from the ashes of a shrouded past, consumed by bitterness... and
scheming to corrupt Luke Skywalker to the Dark Side. |
