Girl in Landscape offers a genre-bending, mind-expanding tale of a new frontier. Jonathan Lethem's novel is a science-fiction Western that evokes both the brooding tragedy of John Ford's The Searchers and the sexual precocity of Nabokov's Lolita. Lethem's heroine is 14-year-old Pella Marsh, whose mother dies just as her family flees a post-apocalyptic Brooklyn for the frontier of a recently discovered planet. Hating her ineffectual father, and troubled by a powerful attraction to the virile but dangerous loner who holds sway over the little colony, Pella embarks on a course of discovery that will have tragic and irrevocable consequences - both for the humans in her community, and also for the mysterious and passive indigenous inhabitants, The Archbuilders.

This value-for-money volume contains the very greatest of the science fiction novels by H.G. Wells, one of the true Grandfathers of SF. The Orson Welles broadcast of THE WAR OF THE WORLDS on public radio was 'the night that panicked America' as listeners believed they really were being invaded by aliens. Films, TV series, audio tapes, spin-off movies (THE NIGHT THAT PANICKED AMERICA), and Jeff Wayne's hugely successful rock opera followed. All these novels have timeless appeal: THE INVISIBLE MAN has been filmed and used as the basis for a spin-off series and other writers' novels. THE ISLAND OF DOCTOR MOREAU, filmed three times, is the inspiration for such diverse talents as Ann Halam and THE SIMPSONS. THE FIRST MEN IN THE MOON attracted the great FX master Ray Harryhausen to lend his talents to the movie; THE TIME MACHINE has been made into movies and TV series; Stephen Baxter's sequel, THE TIME SHIPS, received widespread acclaim. And H.G. Wells himself has appeared as a character in numerous books and films.

Shikasta written by Doris Lessing and has been published by HarperCollins Publishers this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 1994 with English fiction categories.
From Doris Lessing, winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature, this is the first instalment in the visionary novel cycle 'Canopus in Argos: Archives'. The story of the final days of our planet is told through the reports of Johor, an emissary sent from Canopus. Earth, now named Shikasta (the Stricken) by the kindly, paternalistic Canopeans who colonised it many centuries ago, is under the influence of the evil empire of Puttiora. War, famine, disease and environmental disasters ravage the planet. To Johor, mankind is a 'totally crazed species', racing towards annihilation: his orders to save humanity set him what seems to be an impossible task. Blending myth, fable and allegory, Doris Lessing's astonishing visionary creation both reflects and redefines the history of our own world from its earliest beginnings to an inevitable, tragic self-destruction.

With a new introduction by Kelly Link, the Locus Award-winning science fiction novel by legendary author Ursula K. Le Guin, set in a world where one man’s dreams rewrite the future. During a time racked by war and environmental catastrophe, George Orr discovers his dreams alter reality. George is compelled to receive treatment from Dr. William Haber, an ambitious sleep psychiatrist who quickly grasps the immense power George holds. After becoming adept at manipulating George’s dreams to reshape the world, Haber seeks the same power for himself. George—with some surprising help—must resist Haber’s attempts, which threaten to destroy reality itself. A classic of the science fiction genre, The Lathe of Heaven is prescient in its exploration of the moral risks when overwhelming power is coupled with techno-utopianism.
