In the oppressive city of Kindred, circa 2052, Lance Canela tries a little too hard to fulfill the classic image of a private detective. Living in the shadow of the enormous Arcology and barely scraping by, he's happy to sit in his office all day, reliving the adventures of his hardboiled heroes from a century past. But when the wealthy Fiona, a woman he thinks is the femme fatale he's always waited for, knocks on his door, Lance gets a taste of life-or-death reality as he faces off against ruthless goons for the first time. Shaken by the experience, Lance lays low for a few months until a new case thrusts him into the world of the super-rich high atop the Arcology, and that of the impoverished masses living at its base. In search of a missing girl with only the name "Ascended Employment" to go on, Lance must reconnect with Fiona and navigate the world of the wealthy to find her. Fiona, however, has problems of her own, and her past is more intertwined with Ascended than anyone could predict.

This book is an informative and transformational journey. Through it you can learn the ways of a new science called Neoarcology. In 1800, only 3% of the world's population lived in cities, in 1950, there were 83 cities with populations exceeding ONE MILLION, and by 2007, this number had risen to 468. If the trend continues, today's urban population of 3.2 BILLION will rise to nearly 5 BILLION by 2030, when three out of five people will live in cities. By then, over 2 BILLION people in the world will be living in slums with no access to the commerce of life, and Asia alone will have at least 10 megacities with populations over 25 MILLION. Lagos, Nigeria has grown from 300,000 in 1950 to an estimated 25 MILLION residents by 2015. How do we keep this Urban Devastation from depleting our planet of it's natural resources? How do we slow the razing of thriving ecosystems and stop the cold, soulless, megalopolis of the future? This is what the Science of NEOARCOLOGY seeks to do. It combines Three proven scientific disciplines to provide for this inexorable expansion of the human machine, while curtailing our destructive footprint on the world around us, and the resources our children will need to survive. Join the journey of NEOARCOLOGY and learn how each of us can truly live free. With this powerful combination of Permaculture, Aquaponics, and Arcology, We may find the key to saving our civilization, and the natural world.

With detailed rules for designing and customizing your mecha, from size and propulsion type to payload and pilot skills, and a campaign system that allows pilots to gain experience and skills as they patrol the shattered Earth, Gamma Wolves is a fast-playing game of post-apocalyptic mecha warfare.

From 800 years in the future, a runcible gate is opened into the Polity and those coming through it have been sent specially to take the alien ‘Maker’ back to its home civilization in the Small Magellanic cloud. Once these refugees are safely through, the gate itself is rapidly shut down – because something alien is pursuing them. The gate is then dumped into a nearby sun. From those refugees who get through, agent Cormac learns that the Maker civilization has been destroyed by pernicious virus known as the Jain technology. This, of course, raised questions: why was Dragon, a massive biocontruct of the Makers, really sent to the Polity; why did a Jain node suddenly end up in the hands of someone who could do the most damage with it? Meanwhile an entity called the Legate is distributing pernicious Jain nodes . . . and a renegade attack ship, The King of Hearts, has encountered something very nasty outside the Polity itself.

A timely rethinking of the archetypal story of Noah, the great flood, and who was left behind as the waters rose Most people know the story of Noah from a children’s bible or a play set with a colorful ship, bearded Noah, pairs of animals, and an uncomplicated vision of survival. Noah’s ark, however, will forever be haunted by what it leaves to the rising waters so that the world can begin again. In Noah’s Arkive, Jeffrey J. Cohen and Julian Yates examine the long history of imagining endurance against climate catastrophe—as well as alternative ways of creating refuge. They trace how the elements of the flood narrative were elaborated in medieval and early modern art, text, and music, and now shape writing and thinking during the current age of anthropogenic climate change. Arguing that the biblical ark may well be the worst possible exemplar of human behavior, the chapters draw on a range of sources, from the Epic of Gilgamesh and Ovid’s tale of Deucalion and Pyrrah, to speculative fiction, climate fiction, and stories and art dwelling with environmental catastrophe. Noah’s Arkive uncovers the startling afterlife of the Genesis narrative written from the perspective of Noah’s wife and family, the animals on the ark, and those excluded and so left behind to die. This book of recovered stories speaks eloquently to the ethical and political burdens of living through the Anthropocene. Following a climate change narrative across the millennia, Noah’s Arkive surveys the long history of dwelling with the consequences of choosing only a few to survive in order to start the world over. It is an intriguing meditation on how the story of the ark can frame how we think about environmental catastrophe and refuge, conservation and exclusion, offering hope for a better future by heeding what we know from the past.

A multinational clandestine resistance has come together to fight against a new global cabal. Spear-headed by their top operatives, Cory Bryson and Amit Rubin, they seek to reveal this cabal for what it is: a secret combination slowly eroding the freedoms of the world to fit their power agendas. As time is running out, and new enemies threaten to take the conflict to open warfare, Bryson and Amit must face overwhelming odds to stop a tyrannical power grab. The emergence of this new economic order, or NEO21 as it is sometimes referred to, has thrown an already destabilized world further into chaos. Citizens struggle to navigate the difficult choices ahead of them in an increasingly divisive and conflictual world where a war between freedom and authoritarianism is waged in the shadows. "Dark Agendas of Power is a well-written, engaging, and fast-paced [book] that captures the reader’s attention and imagination from the first page. The well-developed characters and fast-paced plot lead to an enjoyable reading experience. All readers will be thoroughly engaged and anxiously reading to the last page to find out the outcome for their favorite characters." ~ BookBaby
