  In the silent corridors of a Morgue Ship drifting between Earth and Mars, Brandon has a single purpose—recover the frozen bodies of fallen soldiers and search for the one that matters most: his own son. But when the retrieval claw hauls in a perfectly preserved man from the year 2100—one of the legendary 51 Scientists who vanished before completing a rumored super-weapon—Brandon realizes he may be holding the key to ending the war once and for all. What follows is a charged battle of morality, loyalty, and desperation as Brandon attempts the unthinkable: revive a man frozen for three centuries. And when the first heartbeat returns, so does hope… along with danger. 
  “Lazarus Come Forth” blends mystery, tension, and emotional depth into a story only Ray Bradbury could write—a tale where science and faith merge, where the dead refuse to stay silent, and where the line between redemption and ruin becomes razor thin. 
  Ray Bradbury (1920–2012) was one of the most influential voices in 20th-century speculative fiction, the author of Fahrenheit 451, The Martian Chronicles, Something Wicked This Way Comes, and more than 600 works across stories, novels, screenplays, essays, and poetry. Though loved for his lyrical language and human-centered storytelling, Bradbury also excelled at darker, suspense-driven tales like this one, exploring the emotional consequences of technology, war, and memory. 
  Whether you’re discovering Bradbury for the first time or returning to a forgotten gem, this story remains a haunting reminder of how far we’ll go to rewrite death—and how high the cost may be when the past wakes up.

  There will be no peace, not even for the people of Espar. 
  The people have suffered long enough under the reign of squabbling princes. Prince Tohmas of Galanth has the perfect solution: supersede the Princes with a King. With the blessing of his Goddess Inac and the strength of the enchanted sword SoulBurner, he will be that King. 
  While half of Espar pledges allegiance, the other half declares war. Tohmas’ eyes turn to his greatest opposition, the Princedom of Trulin, where Prince Kelland is readying his majestic warhorses for battle. Victory in Trulin will only come with persistence and faith, but Inac’s favor is becoming fickle. Without Inac, SoulBurner is nothing, and Tohmas’ claim to Espar cannot be upheld. 
  As magic powers collide and dragons take to the skies, Tohmas faces a threat his training and years of experience in war are useless against: Prince Kelland’s daughter Arnika Trulin.

  The Truth About Pyecraft

  The Truth About Pyecraft by H. G. Wells is a witty and satirical tale blending humor with social critique. The story follows Mr. Pyecraft, an overweight, indolent member of a gentleman’s club, who seeks a magical remedy for weight loss. He convinces the narrator, a skeptical man of Indian descent, to share an ancient family recipe. To Pyecraft’s dismay, the potion works too well—instead of losing weight, he becomes weightless, floating uncontrollably. The situation grows absurd as Pyecraft struggles to adapt, relying on weights and tethers to stay grounded. Wells uses this whimsical premise to mock vanity, indulgence, and colonial attitudes, while exploring themes of unintended consequences. A blend of comedy and sharp observation, The Truth About Pyecraft offers a lighthearted yet incisive commentary on human folly and societal pretensions.
