NATIONAL BESTSELLER • “Exciting and provocative . . . A tour de force of a book that begs to be seen as well as to be read.”—The Washington Post Book World World renowned scientist Carl Sagan and acclaimed author Ann Druyan have written a Roots for the human species, a lucid and riveting account of how humans got to be the way we are. Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors is a thrilling saga that starts with the origin of the Earth. It shows with humor and drama that many of our key traits—self-awareness, technology, family ties, submission to authority, hatred for those a little different from ourselves, reason, and ethics—are rooted in the deep past, and illuminated by our kinship with other animals. Sagan and Druyan conduct a breathtaking journey through space and time, zeroing in on critical turning points in evolutionary history, and tracing the origins of sex, altruism, violence, rape, and dominance. Their book culminates in a stunningly original examination of the connection between primate and human traits. Astonishing in its scope, brilliant in its insights, and an absolutely compelling read, Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors is a triumph of popular science.

Below the globe and through the vortex came flying through, a giant great white dragon...” The Dragons of Eden is a thrilling tale that invites young readers to explore a fantastical world of dragons, magic, and adventure as they learn of the four great dragons—North, East, South, and West—who protect the world for the Mother Pearl who created them.

The planet Eden orbits on the edge of the Milky Way. A pristine world of volcanos, oceans, thick forests, and wild grasslands, its unique species have evolved untroubled by visitors. It is a planet devoid of technology but teaming with life. But its isolation is over. Humans are spreading through the stars, sacrificing their own gods to escape a dying Earth. They bring a wealth of experience gleaned from survival on many planets and advanced technologies to traverse interstellar space. Supporting them is a colony ship sentient in her own right and with her own agenda. For them, Eden is another home, a respite from their crowded worlds, an escape for those fleeing their old lives. Amongst them are survivors, innovators, farmers, and scientists. Ivan has escaped the brutal mines of Novgorod, searching for a life of sunlight and freedom. Drummer is running from himself, fleeing wealth and shame, hoping to learn who he really is. Fable thought she left leadership behind. Burnt out on academia and disgusted with politics, she finds herself the accidental leader of the first humans on Eden. The Abeona is tasked with keeping her passengers safe, not only from new threats but from the dark history of humanity itself. But they are not alone. An ancient, cunning, shapeshifting creature arrived before them. Sailing across the uncrossable voids, escaping the slow destruction of her own galaxy, she has laid her eggs on Eden. Now she watches, biding her time with a violent and devious history all her own. Conqueror and refugee, she is older than humanity itself with knowledge and weapons they can only imagine. As these powerful races, each unknown to the other struggle to survive, to grow, to find a home in this new world, they gradually become aware of the others existence. Is conflict inevitable? Will each revert to their warlike past? Can these two advanced species survive and share a planet that has no need of either?

“Ann Druyan has unearthed a treasure. It is a treasure of reason, compassion, and scientific awe. It should be the next book you read.” —Sam Harris, author of The End of Faith “A stunningly valuable legacy left to all of us by a great human being. I miss him so.” —Kurt Vonnegut Carl Sagan's prophetic vision of the tragic resurgence of fundamentalism and the hope-filled potential of the next great development in human spirituality The late great astronomer and astrophysicist describes his personal search to understand the nature of the sacred in the vastness of the cosmos. Exhibiting a breadth of intellect nothing short of astounding, Sagan presents his views on a wide range of topics, including the likelihood of intelligent life on other planets, creationism and so-called intelligent design, and a new concept of science as "informed worship." Originally presented at the centennial celebration of the famous Gifford Lectures in Scotland in 1985 but never published, this book offers a unique encounter with one of the most remarkable minds of the twentieth century.
