  She stepped out to a strange people in a strange darkness…and she saw a stranger in her husband. 
  Charlie Kensal grieves the loss of both parents at her brother’s farm near Valley City, North Dakota. She’s always listened to her well-meaning if not rather authoritarian brother, even when it came to marrying Richard. 
  Then the world is upturned when darkness falls five minutes past two—in the afternoon. Even more shocking, Charlie escapes the isolated farm during a riot with rugged cattle rancher, Nick Miller. 
  The cause of the darkness is unknown. Temperatures plummet outside even as heat turns up between Charlie and Nick. When Charlie finds Richard at the National Guard Armory with other survivors, she leaves with her husband. But something is wrong with Richard. Soon, Charlie regrets leaving Nick to the darkness. 
  And darkness is just the beginning.

  Sea of Tranquility is a sweeping, time-bending novel that explores the fragility of civilization, the persistence of art, and the nature of reality itself. Spanning centuries—from the Canadian wilderness in 1912 to a lunar colony in the far future—the story follows a cast of characters connected by a mysterious anomaly that suggests time may not be as linear as it seems. As pandemics echo across eras and lives intersect in unexpected ways, the novel weaves a haunting meditation on existence, memory, and the enduring human drive to seek meaning in chaos.

  ... have begun to crumble.
  
  If they escape, the galaxy will never be the same.

  When the elderly monk Eklund takes on a boy with the power to heal himself as his novice, events come thick and fast. A murder takes place in the monks' remote contemplative community and security forces all over the planet are feverishly searching for the escaped metamorph.

  Are the Temporals going to escape?

  The Sword of Welleran and Other Stories is the third book by Anglo-Irish fantasy writer Lord Dunsany, considered a major influence on the work of J. R. R. Tolkien, H. P. Lovecraft, Ursula K. Le Guin, and others. It was first published in hardcover by George Allen & Sons in October 1908, and has been reprinted a number of times since. Issued by the Modern Library in a combined edition with A Dreamer's Tales as A Dreamer's Tales and Other Stories in 1917.The book is a series of short stories. One of the stories, "The Fortress Unvanquishable, Save For Sacnoth", was afterwards (1910) published by itself as a separate book. The Sword of Welleran and Other Stories marked the end of Dunsany's writing about Pegāna and the beginning of a new phase of his career, in which he wrote heroic fantasies in a more modern style. Darrell Schweitzer states that this period included much of his best work. "The Fortress Unvanquishable, Save for Sacnoth" was one of the chief influences on sword and sorcery fiction. Another important breakthrough was that Dunsany was writing short stores; heroic fantasy's forerunners were usually lengthy works. This audiobook features the following short stories: 
  "The Sword of Welleran" 
  "The Fall of Babbulkund" 
  "The Kith of the Elf-Folk" 
  "The Highwayman" 
  "In the Twilight" 
  "The Ghosts" 
  "The Whirlpool" 
  "The Hurricane" 
  "The Fortress Unvanquishable, Save for Sacnoth" 
  "The Lord of Cities" 
  "The Doom of La Traviata" 
  "On the Dry Land"
