His new life in a small town promises much the same for Quentin as his old—isolation, medication, music—until he finds a mysterious quilt in the attic.
Getting suspended and taking away my gun is one thing, bugging my house is another. AIR has gone too far. Putting the team on administrative leave is a smart move.

Using what little information we gathered, Neil works his magic and sends us to Utah for our search. The cold temperatures I’m prepared for, especially since it means sharing a sleeping bag with Vincent. But I’d rather play with pixies than face the rest. Ghoulish monsters, malicious men, and a sinister underground facility wait for us. Boone is out here, too. How far do I have to push my power to track him?Mostra libro

The Star Beast by Damon Knight - They called this strange tentacle-headed blob that had floundered into the System Oscar. They were to learn a better name. The observation deck of the President Marcus, this early in the ship's arbitrary morning, was deserted except for two shapeless figures. One of them was dead. The body was sprawled in the curve of the deck about midway between two of the entrance wells. It had arms and legs, if you looked closely enough at the limp tangle of garments; it had a gray beard and a purple face. The other figure had neither limbs nor a face. It was black, and it looked more like a pile of mud than anything else: a five-foot lump of black mud, slightly flattened at either side, with a cluster of black, stumpy filaments at the top. It moved slightly, dropping the filaments a little toward the dead body; then it flowed away again, and the filaments pointed straight up, toward the stars. Phil Horitz came up at the forward end of the deck. He let the levitor push him gently clear of the well then stepped over to the glassine and looked out at the tiny blue disk that was Earth. His back was to the body and its watcher. He struck a cigarette, inhaling deeply, then turned around. He swore and threw his cigarette away, leaping forward at the same instant. He skidded to a halt in front of the corpse and fell to one knee beside it. "Dead," he said. "Oh, Lord." He searched the body swiftly, and came up with a flat metal box, attached by a silver chain to the body's middle. He tried the lid; it opened easily. The box was empty. Horitz sighed and lifted the dead man's chin. Under the grey beard was a deeply-indented red line that encircled the throat. He stood up and pressed a button on his wrist transceiver. "Walsh," he said. "Sommers. Get up to the observation deck. Thomasson has been murdered."Mostra libro
This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. What if you could go back in time, not to change history, but to short it? When Wall Street prodigy John Sterling loses everything, a mysterious angel offers him a second chance: return to 2010 armed with the knowledge of 2025. Armed with stock charts, crypto forecasts, and insider foresight, John becomes the man who can outsmart the future itself. But as every trade reshapes time, he discovers that money can’t hedge against destiny. Set between the chaos of the 2008 crash and the rise of Bitcoin, Timora: The Man Who Shorted the Future blends financial thriller, time-travel paradox, and moral reckoning into one gripping narrative. John must navigate love, greed, and guilt while watching the butterfly effect unfold across a decade of rewritten history. As fortunes soar and collapse in seconds, the real question emerges: if you knew every turn the market would take, would you use it to save the world, or just yourself? Written by AL Nika, this audiobook fuses the intellect of The Big Short with the metaphysical edge of Interstellar and Back to the Future II. It’s a haunting story of redemption, fate, and the price of knowing too much. For fans of speculative fiction, finance thrillers, and philosophical sci-fi, Timora is a pulse-pounding journey through time, temptation, and the limits of human choice.Mostra libro
