"So why is it cool to meld detective stories, where things add up, and science fiction, where they (typically) don’t? The melding has been around for decades now, even before the first Blade Runner. Maybe ‘cause when they meld, those lousy prognostications might finally make some sense? Call it Space Noir?Which brings me to Hadrian’s Fall, Ian Roumain’s astonishingly imaginative novel, set on Mars and with one of the best opening lines since “Call Me Ishmael”. Forget whether in reality Mars would ever be habitable; Roumain makes you believe that it will be and has created a world (actually two worlds), so real that you could easily lose yourself in either."- From the foreword by Nicholas Meyer (writer/director of Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, and author of The Seven-Percent Solution)These are dangerous times on the fourth planet from the sun. Mars, the crown jewel among Earth’s colonies, has erupted into violence. A group of rebels known as Mars First has launched an uprising against Earth’s control of the red planet.For Hadrian Stricks, these momentous events are taking place just as his own life is unraveling—he’s been accused of killing the richest man on Mars, Gerhard De Brecht. Since he’s been having an affair with the dead man’s wife, it’s not difficult to understand why the police think he’s guilty. Sure, Hadrian has fantasized about killing Gerhard, but he didn’t actually do it. Desperate to elude the authorities and prove his innocence, Hadrian hasn’t got a clue how to accomplish either. Salvation appears in the form of his old pal Arthur Rittlemeyer, a fellow Colonial Marines veteran who thinks it’s the perfect time to pull off the biggest heist in Martian history. The authorities, he figures, will be too busy trying to put down the Martian rebellion to bother stopping them from making their big score.All Hadrian has to do is lend Arthur his piloting skills in order to help him rob the richest company on Mars—the De Brecht Corporation . . .

You might think you know Superman, but you haven't yet read Voices From Krypton.

A love-letter to fun toys that broke real easy, Rack Toys chronicles decades of cheaply made toys found on the rack of discount stores, drug stores and anywhere in-between. What these toys lacked in quality, they made up for in charm and kitsch.

Seeking a fresh start, she and her family move to New York City, where she meets Daphne Cole-a gorgeous, stylish, well-known momfluencer. To Meg's surprise and delight, Daphne shows an inordinate amount of interest in Meg, showering her with compliments, attention, gifts, and all the perks that come with having a massive digital platform. Before she knows it, Meg finds herself immersed in Daphne's world-hobnobbing at exclusive power mama supper clubs, partaking in fancy wellness rituals, and reveling in the external validation she gets from her followers who grow daily by the thousands. Her friendship with Daphne, as well as the world she's been granted access to, is intoxicating and all-consuming. But is it authentic? When Meg realizes she's losing track of what matters most-her relationship with her sons and her husband-the deep cracks in Daphne's carefully curated façade are finally exposed. It's up to Meg to find her way back to her real life. But first she must determine what "real" even means. Written with Jenny Mollen's signature razor sharp wit, City of Likes is a compulsively entertaining, unforgettable, and unsettling satire of modern life and relationships in a “pics or it didn't happen” world.
