400017 COOK, DR. ROBIN. Seizure First ed.. . 2003 Pan SOFTCOVER: (Orig. paperback. . VERY GOOD) What could the Shroud of Turin, a conservative Southern senator, and an entrepreneurial researcher have in common? Here politics, religion and bioscience collide in the latest novel from the master of the medical thriller. Senator Ashley Butler is a quintessential demagogue whose support of traditional American values includes a knee-jerk reaction against virtually all biotechnologies. When he's called on to chair a sub-committee introducing legislation to ban new cloning technology, the senator views it as a keystone to his political future. As a consequence, Dr Daniel Lowell - inventor of a technique that will take stem-cell research up to the next level - sees a barrier being raised before his biotech start-up. These seemingly opposite personalities may clash during the Senate hearings, yet the two men share a common failing. Butler's hunger for political power far outstrips his genuine concern for the unborn; while Lowell's pursuit of massive personal wealth and celebrity overrides any real considerations for his patients' well-being. Further complicating their confrontation is the confidential news that Senator Butler has developed Parkinson's disease - which leads the senator and the researcher into a Faustian pact. But in attempting to utilise Lowell's new technology prematurely, the therapy leaves the senator with the horrifying effects of temporal lobe epilepsy - causing seizures of the bizarrest order. Taken straight out of tomorrow's headlines, "Seizure" is a cautionary tale for this age when new biotechnological discoveries are pulling us ever further into a promising yet frightening new world.

A land of myth and agic...and ruled by the power company. Rhomatum: a powerful city-state built around the massive, energy-producing Rhomatum Node. Mauritum: a node city second only to Rhomatum herself. Khoratum: an exceedingly attitudinal satellite of Rhomatum---with notions of autonomy. The Rhomandi Family are the descendants of Rhomatum's founding father, and heirs to the Ley Tower which controls the node's life-giving energy. Anheliaa Rhomandi, the despotic Ringmaster of Rhomatum, a woman of legendary Talent, is aging rapidly and is desperate for an heir to the unprecedented web of power she has created. Her nephews, Deymorin, Mikhyel and Nikaenor, three singularly unTalented young men, brothers torn apart by mistrust, jealousy and polarized political views---are not the Masters she has in mind. Mauritum senses weakness in her long-time rival and sees an opportunity to add Rhomatum---and all Rhomatum's satellite nodes---to her already glittering crown. All she must do is wait for Anheliaa to die. But Anheliaa has plans for her precious heir, plans that involve her three nephews---will they or nil they. Those plans will set them all, brothers, cities...and the ley itself...on a collision course with destiny.

The John Glenn's crew intended to terraform the nearly pristine planet Ymir, in hopes of creating a utopian society that will limit intelligent technology. But by some miscalculation they have landed in another solar system, and extremely low on the antimatter needed to continue to Ymir, they must shape the nearby planet Harlequin's moon, Selene, into a new, temporary home. Their only hope of ever reaching Ymir is to rebuild their store of antimatter through decades of terraforming the moon. Gabriel, the head terraformer, must lead this nearly impossible task, with all the wrong materials. His primary tools are the uneducated and nearly illiterate children of the original colonists, born and bred to build Harlequin's moon into a virtual antimatter factory. With no concept of the future and with life defined as duty, one girl, Rachel Vanowen, begins to ask herself the question: what will become of the children of Selene once the terraforming is complete.

Four hundred years later, the far-flung colonies that arose as a result of these events scattered over three thousand years of time and a thousand parsecs of space are beginning to rediscover their origins.The New Republic is one such colony. It has existed for centuries in self-imposed isolation, rejecting all but the most basic technology. Now, under attack by a devastating information plague, the colony must reach out to Earth for help. A battle fleet is dispatched, streaking across the stars to the rescue. But things are not what they seem secret agendas and ulterior motives abound, both aboard the ship and on the ground. And watching over it all is the Eschaton, which has its own very definite ideas about the outcome. [KEY WORDS: Literature fiction science fiction fantasy ] 9.50

400093 STROSS, CHARLES Halting State 1st in the Halting State' series of books. 1st printing of 2008 edition. 2008 Orbit SOFTCOVER: (Orig. paperback. Name end paper. Bit browning. VERY GOOD) No cheats, no back doors, no extra lives. It was called in as a robbery at Hayek Associates, an online gaming company. So you can imagine Sergeant Sue Smith's mood as she watches footage of the heist being carried out by a band of orcs and a dragon, and realises that the robbery from an online game company is actually a robbery from an online game. Just wonderful. Like she has nothing better to do. But when the bodies of actual people start showing up, it's clear that there is something very dangerous and very real going on at Hayek Associates. If this is a game, someone is playing for keeps:- Review(s): "'Halting State' is one extremely smart species of fun" - William Gibson / "The first couple of pages had me hooked and I didn't touch another book until I finished it" - John Carmack, Technical Director, iD Software and creator of Doom and Quake / "Charles Stross is the most spectacular science fiction writer of recent years. In 'Halting State', he has written a near-future story that is at once over-the-top and compellingly believable" - Vernor Vinge [KEY WORDS: Literature fiction science fiction fantasy ] 8.50

World famous poet Robert Gu missed twenty years of progress while he nearly died from Alzheimer's. Now, when he awakens in San Diego in the year 2025, with his mind and health restored, reality's a shock. Books are just about gone. Computers are old news, replaced by 'smart' contact lenses that connect him to the Internet via his clothes and wireless nodes just about everywhere. Buildings look low-rent - unless your wearing. Then they look like whatever you want. Even he is different. He's seventy-five, but his treatment has made him look almost like a teenager. And that's just the tip of the iceberg in the new Digital Age. As Gu tries to catch up with his future, a mysterious stranger draws him and other innocents into a conspiracy that could have disastrous consequences. Before he knows it, he's in so deep that even his high-ranking military son and daughter-in-law are clueless. His only hope - the world's only hope - is that his thirteen-year-old- granddaughter Miri and her secret friend, Mr Rabbit, might be able to keep the worst from happening:- Review(s): "In the grand tradition of William Gibson and Neal Stephenson, Vernor Vinge just turned the future upside-down in 'Rainbows End' a deceptively charming return to the high school novel of yore, replete with bullying, family troubles. And grand terrorism" [KEY WORDS: Literature fiction science fiction fantasy ] 9.50

After five long centuries, animosity still runs deep, and even the memory of sunlight has been forgotten in the land of Athera. Only the words of a drunken seer offer hope that the Mistwraith might be defeated, that the train of hatreds and ills it has inflicted across Athera might one day be set to rights. The Mad Prophet Dakar's augury foretold that a gifted descendant of the old kings would arrive through the Gate between worlds, bringing back the means to heal the lands. But upon the prophecy's fulfillment, the Fellowship Sorcerer Asandir finds that the power to subdue the Mistwraith is split between two princes - half-brothers, strangers to each other, opposites in outlook and upbringing. Only by working together can they restore Athera's lost sunlight - and they are enemies, heirs to a blood feud generations old."; [KEY WORDS: Literature fiction science fiction fantasy ] 19.50
