"The Gray Wolf's Daughter" by Gertrude Warden presents a richly woven narrative likely crafted in the late 19th century. Set against the moody backdrop of Victorian society, the story pulsates with drama and intrigue, revolving around the lives of Dr. Ernest Netherbridge, the ethereal Lady Clare Cranstoun, and her imposing husband, Sir Philip. As they navigate the turbulent seas of personal conflict, societal norms, and deeply buried family secrets, the novel profoundly explores themes of identity, love, and betrayal. At the opening of this mesmerizing tale, we are introduced to Dr. Netherbridge, a young and earnest physician, striving to carve a place for himself in the quiet, almost languid town of Grayling. His life takes a fateful turn when he is summoned to the grand yet oppressive estate of Sir Philip Cranstoun. There, he finds Lady Clare, a vision of beauty cloaked in fragility, who battles not only a severe illness but also the weight of her tumultuous gypsy heritage and the stifling confines of her marriage. As Lady Clare emerges from the shadows of her troubled existence, the narrative unfolds her tragic family history, entwined with a fervent longing for freedom and reconciliation with her roots. This longing sets the stage for a gripping tale tinged with suspense and a sense of impending danger. The intertwining fates of Lady Clare, Dr. Netherbridge, and the rigid expectations of their time create a tapestry of emotion, illuminating their struggles and desires against the stark realities of a society that seeks to bind them.Ver livro
A devastating dust storm. A colony on the edge of extinction. Only one person can save them. But first they need to start a revolution. In the midst of the most devastating dust storm in the history of Mars, the survival of the half million people who call it home is hanging in the balance. Yet for Major Mia Sorelli, of the Mars Law and Order Department, it’s just another sol at the office — another sol trying to keep the desperate and angry citizens from tearing themselves apart. But when she’s sent to investigate the death of a fellow officer in the lawless industrial city of Syrtis, she begins to suspect that the endless dust storm may not be the only thing threatening their survival. With the help of her semi-sentient droid, Gizmo, they uncover a plot so heinous that her faith in humanity is almost shattered — and the only way for her to get it back, and save the colony, is to start a goddamn revolution. About Surface Tension: This is the fifth book in a Sci-Fi series set in a human colony on Mars, but it can also be read as a stand-alone novel. The science depicted is, for the most part, plausible. In other words, what’s technically possible with either current technology or taking experimental research a step or two further. That said, you won’t need a calculator or a slide-rule to enjoy the story. Can be read as a stand-alone novel.Ver livro
