ALL NEW NARRATION by Grammy-winner Stefan Rudnicki! Blackmailed! Wrongly discredited as a space pilot, Panglor Balef is doomed to die in space, if sheer luck doesn’t bring him through. But luck has never been in Panglor’s cards. Bad enough to be coerced into a mission of murder and suicide, he must also contend with Alo—a young woman, stowaway, and impossible companion. Neither of them, nor his empathic ou-ralot, could possibly anticipate the journey through space-time they are about to embark on, through a door to an insane reality from which there is almost certainly no return. It could be the discovery of the millennium, but the only way home is to journey even further into the heart of madness. The stunning prequel to the famed Star Rigger Universe of Jeffrey A. Carver, Nebula-nominated author of Eternity’s End and The Chaos Chronicles, and recipient of Frank Herbert Lifetime Achievemen Award for science fiction.

CARVER: “Masterfully captures the joy of exploration.” —Publishers Weekly “Carver writes powerfully and clearly and has produced a book that is likely to find an audience among hard SF readers.” —Booklist “Carver is a strong SF writer, with a good feel for both the hard SF elements and the people he populates them with.” —Amazing Stories “One of the few hard SF writers whose characters are as interesting as the deep science.” —Melissa Scott, author of DreamshipsShow book

Bound to the destiny of every and all, Yvaine races against the crumbling Dark Gate. Will she find the power she needs before their fates are sealed? Contains mature themes.Show book
The Last Winter describes the agony of a researcher and, broadly speaking, of the honest Romanian intelligentsia, in the muddled period that followed the overturn of Nicolae Ceausescu’s dictatorship in late 1989. The deprivations that politicians imposed on the Romanian public for the sake of an ambivalent switch to the market economy and delusive future welfare took a serious toll on the country. The lead character, a researcher, found himself caught between two ostensibly different worlds that hardly differed in reality, insofar as they were products of the same clique of politicians that only paid lip service to Eastern Europe’s political U-turn of the 1990s. Persecuted under the Communist regime, the character has trouble adjusting to the mock capitalism that follows. His is a self-denying struggle for preserving the fundamental values of humankind embodied by the endangered library—that of his own research institute and its symbolic counterpart, Assurbanipal’s famous library in Nineveh. The researcher is killed while unsuccessfully trying to save the former but compensates by saving the latter in his dying hour’s visions—a silver lining to this gloomy ending as the author believes that fundamental values will eventually prevail.Show book
