Format: epub,mobi,lit,fb2

Book Description:

Dayworld is Earth in the future. World leaders have instituted a new way of living to solve overpopulation. The days of the week exist as alternate realities. Each day has it s own police, firemen, government officials, doctors and people. Most people share thier homes with seven other people, couples or families though never see each other. The stoning device allows all this to be possible. A person or object may be placed in suspended animation for any ammount of time, then reactivated at the desired time. So, a person who lives on Monday would enter thier stoning chaimber before midnight, and then be reactivated the next Monday at midnight with no perception of the time that had passed. However, a secret society, the Immers is working against the government to allow people to live all the days, and to have freedom and democracy. They employ daybreakers in thier fold who commit one of the ultimate felonies to bring messages to agents who exist in the different days. Jeff is one of these. He has divided his personality into seven distinct personalities, one for each day as a controlled skitzophrania. But, events which threaten him and his society cause his personalities to come crashing together and may threaten to destroy him and the Immers. Overall, a good book. The charachterization was good, though not as in depth as it could have been. And, it seems from this book and others of Farmers books I ve read he doesn t write strong female charachters to take stronger roles.

ISBN-13: 9781582970073

Format: epub,mobi,pdf,lit

Book Description:

Worlds of Wonder starts out like a lot of other books of this type, but after the first few chapters you ll find some really useful and specific advice. My favorite sections are those on writing in E-prime (shunning the passive verb to be ), writing in the discomfort zone, making critical distinctions and creating powerful paragraphs. Gerrod has two long chapters on fantasy and alien world building which I found useful even though I m not a fan of fantasy worlds. I like Gerrold s style. It s easy to follow and entertaining. Yes, it seems self indulgent when he uses his own examples in every chapter but he s also a big fan of classic science fiction and uses Robert Heinlein, Theodore Sturgeon and others for balance. This is a really superb book. Writers outside of science fiction could benefit from the advice, but I m glad to see it focusing on science fiction. Gerrold offers writers a great deal of insight and enthusiam. My favorite line comes near the end, If you haven t written a million words, it s all practice.

Book Description:

It s the 21st century, and all is right with the world. Or so it seems. Vice President Charlie Haskell, who will travel anywhere for a photo op, is about to cut the ribbon for the just-completed American Moonbase. The first Mars voyage is about to leave high orbit, with a woman at the helm. Below, the world is marveling at a rare solar eclipse. But all that is right is about to go disastrously wrong when an amateur astronomer discovers a new comet. Named for its discover, Tomikois a sun-grazer, an interstellar wanderer with a hundred times the mass and ten times the speed of other comets. And it is headed straight for our moon. In less than five days, if scientists predictions are right, Tomiko will crash into the moon, shattering it into a cloud of superheated gas, dust, and huge chunks of rock that will rain down on the earth, causing chaos and killer storms, possibly tidal waves inundating entire cities...or worse: a single apocalyptic worldwide extinction event. In the meantime, the population of Moonbase must be evacuated by a hastily assembled fleet of shuttle rockets. There isn t room, or time enough, for everyone. And the vice president, who rashly promised to be last off ( I will lock the door and turn off the lights ), is trying to figure out how to get away without eating his words. In Moonfall,McDevitt has created a disaster thriller of truly epic proportions, featuring a cast of unforgettable characters: the reluctant Russian rocket jockey entrusted with the lives of squabbling refugees the woman chosen to be first on the moon the scientist who must deflect the possum (POSSible IMpactors) knocked from orbit or witness the end science itself. And at the center of it all is Charlie Haskell, the career politician who discovers his own unexpected reserves of only himself and his country, but for all humankind. Moonfall,is a spellbinding tale of heroism and hope, cowardice and passion played against the awesome spectacle of human history s darkest night.

From fantastic legends and science fictional futures come compelling tales of powerful women-or those who discover strength they did not know they possessed-who fight because they must, for what they believe in, for those they love, to simply survive, or who glory in battle itself. Fierce or fearful, they are courageous and honorable-occasionally unscrupulous and tainted-but all warriors worthy of the name.

I absolutely LOVED this book! I read this in one sitting, I was so immersed in Vika s world I didn t feel time slip away. I thought that Vika handled her nearly impossible circumstances admirably. She did not what she wanted but what was best for those in her care. S.J. Falls created a world different than any other, wonderfully unique, fascinating, yet terribly dire. I will definitely recommend this series to anyone who will listen!

Book Description:

The writing and dialogue are solid, not outstanding, but pretty good. It does raise some interesting questions about human nature: In one scene, Miles is offered a life without strife by the pod people, and quickly turns it around to reveal that not only would a world of pod people be doomed, but also would have no drive, no enjoyment, no real living as we know it. It would all be bland, with no suffering but also no pleasure. Finney s writing is probably at its peak there, especially given the cold, pleasant attitude of the pod people no mustache-twirling and cackling for these villains.

Book Description:

The world building in this story is so visual and totally believable, its like a movie right before your eyes. The characters are not built up as in a lot of other stories. Most of the story deals with traveling through the landscape they find themselves in and trying to survive. I could not guess the ending, although maybe I should have been able to. There is a bit of repetition with the dialogue between the two main characters, but there is also a depth of positive emotions between them too. What is reality? Suspenseful, on the edge of your seat, do not miss this one! Recommend to any and all.
