Sinossi

Ally was lostthe little blue-eyed dear! That is to say, she was nowhere to be found. And of course there was commotion in the Valley. Michael, the gar-dener, was going one way; and John, the house-man, another; and Pincher, one of the loggers, was making for the hills with Uncle Billy in one direction, and Old Uncle and Will and Charlie had gone up in another; and Aunt Rose and Aunt Susan were hunting through the house; and Janet and Essie were running this way and thatand it was noon, and still they hadn't found her.Will was sure Ally would be found in the strawberry-patch on the farther edge of the intervale across the river, and as the boat was on the other side he had of-fered to swim over and fetch it.Charlie had been equally sure that she was looking for bear-cubs again in the hollow half-way up Blue Top.Aunt Susan was convinced that she had fallen asleep somewhere under a bush, when she could not be found in the house.

    Conquest Over Time follows Pat Travis, a veteran Contact Man whose legendary reputation has begun to fade just when he needs it most. Racing to reach the newly opened planet Mert, Travis arrives first — only to discover he has landed on the worst possible day according to the planet’s strict astrological laws. From that moment forward, everything spirals into chaos. The streets are deserted, his welcome is hostile, and a strange chain of events sends him hurtling into the criminal underworld beneath the city. Surrounded by danger, superstition, and an unfamiliar culture, Travis must navigate a society that believes every moment of life is predetermined by the stars. But Travis, battered but unbroken, refuses to be defeated by fate. 
    Shaara builds a world filled with tension, cultural complexity, and sly humor. The deeper Travis goes, the more he discovers about this strange planet — including the startling brilliance of a young sewer-dweller who may change everything. His journey becomes part survival, part diplomacy, and part race against cosmic superstition, all leading to a clever and satisfying resolution. 
    Michael Shaara (1928–1988) wrote science fiction throughout the 1950s and 60s before becoming world-famous for The Killer Angels, which won the Pulitzer Prize. Before that breakout success, he published dozens of imaginative, twist-driven sci-fi tales in the leading magazines of the era. His early work often blended suspense, philosophical reflection, and wry human observation — qualities already visible in Conquest Over Time. 
    Shaara brought depth, pacing, and a storyteller’s instinct to every genre he touched. His legacy today spans classic literature, military fiction, and the golden age of science fiction.

    From #1 New York Times bestselling author Gordon Korman comes the funny and heartwarming sequel to the word-of-mouth hits UNGIFTED and SUPERGIFTED. 
    School has never been a problem for twelve-year-old super-genius Noah Youkilis—at least not until he gets an admission letter to the prestigious Wilderton University. The last thing Noah wants is to go straight from eighth grade into college. Will his life ever just be normal?! 
    Meanwhile, Noah’s best friend, Donovan, has been looking forward all year to a summer of doing nothing. But when Wilderton allows Noah to bring a friend for the summer term, Donovan’s parents jump at the chance. Suddenly, Donovan’s summer of slack has turned into hanging with Noah and working as a summer camp counselor for professors’ kids. 
    Once they arrive on campus, Noah’s determined to fit in—and to him, that means joining the top-secret Society of the Gavel. But becoming a Gaveler is harder than it seems, and it’s made all the harder when Noah and Donovon smuggle Wilderton’s mascot, a two-hundred-pound pig named Porquette, into their dorm. Now Noah and Donovan must combine all their middle-school smarts to keep their pig-sized secret, fix a haywire AI program before it pretty much ends the world, and keep track of Donovan’s campers.  
    It’s going to be a summer to remember in the newest book from #1 New York Times bestselling author Gordon Korman.
