Summary

‘Thea and Milo, the Strange Couple and the Trial of the Venusian Baby’ is an original, entertaining and highly amusing story. It features unique characters, an extremely imaginative plot and a gripping finale. A seemingly normal Hicks family holiday soon turns into something completely different! It’s told from the point of view of nine-year-old Thea. She tells of a strange couple, and an amazing bond she shares with one of them. There’s an alien who smells of cabbage, another alien disguised as a wardrobe, a golf-loving giant fish and more aliens to discover besides. This remarkable book will delight children and adults alike. This is the first story from the fertile mind of Darren Carpenter and, judging by the ending, possibly not his last.

    Technocracy is a concept that has evolved over time, yet its core principles remain focused on the idea that governance should be driven by scientific knowledge and technical expertise rather than political ideologies or populist sentiments. The term "technocracy" was first introduced in the early 20th century by engineers and economists who believed that the efficient management of resources and societal development could only be achieved through the application of scientific principles. Technocrats argued that political leaders, often with little to no understanding of complex systems, were ill-equipped to make decisions that could optimize society’s functioning, particularly in times of rapid industrialization and technological advancement. 
    The origins of technocracy can be traced back to the industrial revolution, when technological innovations began reshaping economies and societies. However, the movement gained significant traction in the early 1930s during the Great Depression, a period of economic turmoil that called into question traditional governance models. During this time, scholars like Howard Scott and engineers from the Technocratic Movement in the United States called for the establishment of a technocratic society where engineers, scientists, and other experts would manage the economy based on data-driven decision-making rather than political influence. They believed that such a system would eliminate inefficiencies, social inequalities, and the corruption they associated with political governance.

    The wolves each have their own unique ability: they can breathe underwater, run at impossible speeds, heal wounds, and more. They’re extraordinary—but how did they get that way? 
    Determined to uncover the truth, Stacy leads the pack north. But the harsh tundra biome pushes the pack to its limits. Can they survive long enough to discover the truth? And is Stacy prepared for what the truth actually is?
