Il perfetto manuale per classificare le razze aliene è quello che le suddivide a seconda del modo che hanno scelto per viaggiare nello spazio (Alfabeto vettoriale dei viaggi interstellari di Yoon Ha Lee). C'è una storia che nessuno aveva ancora immaginato? L'amore fra due veggenti (è nel racconto di Charlie Jane Anders). Le invenzioni sono una bella cosa, ma alcune possono mettere a repentaglio la specie umana: Obediah Polkinghorn è l'uomo che le aiuta a scomparire (in cronaca, Neil Gaiman). Quando l'effetto serra sarà arrivato al culmine e la civiltà scomparsa, cosa resterà? Ma la civiltà, naturalmente, quella solo un po' più catastrofica immaginata da Bruce Sterling in uno dei suoi racconti più toccanti. E per chi non si accontenta ancora, raccomandiamo un viaggio in Kazakhstan in compagnia del Fantasma di Laika, un thriller fantascientifico ad alto potenziale.

Fantascienza - saggio (853 pagine) - Da Mary Shelley alle nuove voci della fantascienza, la storia di un genere attraverso le autrici italiane e internazionali. Scrivere di fantascienza delle donne è, infine, un’emozione che merita di essere vissuta e raccontata: significa conoscere biografie coraggiose ed eccentriche, partecipando a vite che non sono la mia; leggere testi talvolta dimenticati o poco noti, cogliendone il valore e trasmettendolo; essere accolta amorevolmente in un consesso di grandi donne e madri simboliche, conversando con loro attraverso i testi che queste hanno scritto, affinché, un passo dopo l’altro, le donne non smettano mai di camminare. Laura Coci ha compiuto gli studi presso l’Università di Pavia sotto la guida di Franco Gavazzeni; fino a metà della vita è stata filologa e studiosa del romanzo del Seicento veneziano. Negli anni della lunga guerra balcanica, ha promosso azioni di sostegno alla società civile e di accoglienza di rifugiati e minori. È stata docente di italiano e di storia nei licei ed è presidente dell’Istituto lodigiano per la storia della Resistenza e dell’età contemporanea, per il quale ha curato alcuni Quaderni. In ambito science fiction collabora con le riviste Vitamine Vaganti – ove ha pubblicato la serie Fantascienza, un genere (femminile) – e Un’ambigua utopia; scrive inoltre per ContactZone, Leggendaria, Robot, World SF Magazine Italia e Zothique. Con Roberto Del Piano è ora curatrice dell’edizione delle opere di Daniela Piegai per Delos Digital. Ha vinto il Premio Italia nel 2022 nella categoria Miglior articolo su pubblicazione amatoriale.

Two ships race in from outer space and crash in the Pacific Ocean. One contains a hunter, entrusted with a vital mission. The other, his quarry - corrupt, evil, a criminal from an unearthly civilisation light years away. Yet both these creatures had one thing in common - they were unable to exist alone. Each needed a host, a human body they could invade and control.

Fifty years after the events of ALTERED CARBON, Takeshi Kovacs is serving as a mercenary in the Procterate-sponsored war to put down Joshuah Kemp's revolution on the planet Sanction IV. He is offered the chance to join a covert team chasing a prize whose value is limitless -- and whose dangers are endless. Here is a novel that takes mankind to the brink. A breakneck-paced crime thriller, ALTERED CARBON took its readers deep into the universe Morgan had so compellingly realised without ever letting them escape the onward rush of the plot. BROKEN ANGELS melds SF, the war novel and the spy thriller to take the reader below the surface of this future and lay bare the treacheries, betrayals and follies that leave man so ill-prepared for the legacy he has been given: the stars. This is SF at its dizzying best: superb, yet subtle, world-building; strong yet sensitive characterisation; awesome yet believable technology, thilling yet profound writing. Richard Morgan is set to join the genre's world-wide elite.

In Karl Schroeder's sci-fi thriller, Hayden Griffin has come to the city of Rush with one thing in mind: to take murderous revenge for his parents' deaths. It is the distant future. The world known as Virga is a fullerene balloon three thousand kilometers in diameter, filled with air, water, and aimlessly floating chunks of rock. The humans who live in this vast environment must build their own fusion suns and "towns" that are in the shape of enormous wood and rope wheels that are spun for gravity. Young, fit, bitter, and friendless, Hayden Griffin is a very dangerous man. He's come to the city of Rush in the nation of Slipstream with one thing in mind: to take murderous revenge for the deaths of his parents six years ago. His target is Admiral Chaison Fanning, head of the fleet of Slipstream, which conquered Hayden's nation of Aerie years ago. And the fact that Hayden's spent his adolescence living with pirates doesn't bode well for Fanning's chances . . .

Amid the rubble of a city blasted by a civil war that many fear will cross borders and engulf Europe, the Hotel Florida on Madrid's chic Gran Via has become a haven for foreign journalists and writers. It is here that six people meet and find their lives changed forever. Ernest Hemingway, his career stalled, his marriage sour, hopes that this war will give him fresh material and a new romance; Martha Gellhorn, an ambitious young journalist hungry for love and experience, thinks she will find both with Hemingway in Spain. Robert Capa and Gerda Taro, idealistic and ground-breaking young photographers based in Paris, want to capture history in the making and are inventing moder photojournalism in the process. And Arturo Barea, chief of the Republican government's foreign press office, and Ilsa Kulcsar, his Austrian deputy, are struggling to balance truth-telling with their loyalty to their sometimes-compromised cause - a struggle that places both of their lives at risk. Hotel Florida traces the tangled wartime destinies of these three couples - and a host of supporting characters - living as intensely as they had ever done, against the backdrop of a critical moment in history. It is a narrative of love and reinvention that is, finally, a story about truth, finding it, telling it - and living it, whatever the cost.

Named one of NPR's Best Books of 2017 Written during the height of the 1970s Italian domestic terror, a cult novel, with distinct echoes of Lovecraft and Borges, makes its English-language debut. In the spare wing of a church-run sanatorium, some zealous youths create "the Library," a space where lonely citizens can read one another’s personal diaries and connect with like-minded souls in "dialogues across the ether." But when their scribblings devolve into the ugliest confessions of the macabre, the Library’s users learn too late that a malicious force has consumed their privacy and their sanity. As the city of Turin suffers a twenty-day "phenomenon of collective psychosis" culminating in nightly massacres that hundreds of witnesses cannot explain, the Library is shut down and erased from history. That is, until a lonely salaryman decides to investigate these mysterious events, which the citizenry of Turin fear to mention. Inevitably drawn into the city’s occult netherworld, he unearths the stuff of modern nightmares: what’s shared can never be unshared. An allegory inspired by the grisly neo-fascist campaigns of its day, The Twenty Days of Turin has enjoyed a fervent cult following in Italy for forty years. Now, in a fretful new age of "lone-wolf" terrorism fueled by social media, we can find uncanny resonances in Giorgio De Maria’s vision of mass fear: a mute, palpitating dread that seeps into every moment of daily existence. With its stunning anticipation of the Internet—and the apocalyptic repercussions of oversharing—this bleak, prescient story is more disturbingly pertinent than ever. Brilliantly translated into English for the first time by Ramon Glazov, The Twenty Days of Turin establishes De Maria’s place among the literary ranks of Italo Calvino and beside classic horror masters such as Edgar Allan Poe and H. P. Lovecraft. Hauntingly imaginative, with visceral prose that chills to the marrow, the novel is an eerily clairvoyant magnum opus, long overdue but ever timely.
