Beschreibung

The energy derived from hydrogen fusion is certainly the only solution in a world as polluted and overpopulated as ours, but it is certainly not an easy solution to implement.This solution may come as a surprise from as far back as 1969, but for this to happen, it will be necessary to recruit someone capable of retrieving valuable information where no one would ever go looking for it, and where certainly no one, apart from a select few, actually has the opportunity to go.Can old Apollo capsules, together with three Italian soldiers, solve this long-standing problem?Will the United States of America and its allies prove to be the friends so highly praised by the mass media around the world?

The Sleeper Awakes

H. G. Wells

"He went to sleep a commoner and woke up the master of the world."

In 1897, a man named Graham falls into a profound trance that lasts for 203 years. When he finally awakens in the year 2100, he discovers that his modest bank account has grown through the power of compound interest into the greatest fortune in history. He is now the "Sleeper," the legal owner of half the world. But while he slept, a shadowy "White Council" has ruled in his name, turning London into a tiered megacity of technological marvels and crushing inequality. Thrust into the heart of a violent revolution led by the charismatic Ostrog, Graham must decide if he is a savior, a puppet, or a tyrant.

The Birth of the Megacity: Wells' vision of the future is startlingly modern. He imagines a world of "Aeropiles" (flying machines), kinetic advertising, and a globalized economy. The London of 2100 is a city-state where the natural world has been paved over, and the population is controlled through sensory stimulation and the "Labour Company"—a corporate entity that has effectively re-established slavery through debt.

A Prophecy of Revolution: Unlike Wells' more optimistic utopias, The Sleeper Awakes is a gritty exploration of power. It examines how populist movements can be co-opted by new dictators and how the "working man" is often traded from one master to another. Graham's journey from a bewildered Victorian to a revolutionary leader is a gripping study in the responsibility of wealth and the difficulty of true liberation.

Witness the dawn of the corporate dystopia. Purchase "The Sleeper Awakes" today and see the future that H.G. Wells feared.

There Will be Thousands

Alexander Rob

Slaves are easy to sell when they are viewed as nothing but product. Its another matter entirely when you're the one being sold. 
Sitter has been a bandit for over a decade. He's killed, he's robbed, and he's burned more homesteads than he can count to the ground with their families inside. For him, it's simply a lifestyle he's lived since he was a young boy. The world will always have bandits and he may as well play his part. When his entire troupe is killed, however, and he's sold into slavery himself, he finds the people he must work alongside are the same ones he once sold for coin. 
It would be easy to let the other slaves kill him and they rightfully deserve to do so. Yet Sitter has a secret, one that necessitates his survival. As he struggles to adapt to his new lifestyle, he finds there may be the faintest hope for redemption. But does someone like him even deserve it?
