Tyson, O'Brien's unstable replacement, joins the miners on a treacherous descent, battling geological hazards and Tyson's deteriorating mental state. Rhinehart, now afflicted, takes a morally questionable risk to find a cure, forcing a confrontation with Dr. Fielding over the consequences of human consumption and the potential cosmic repercussions of their choices. This gripping tale blurs the line between ingenuity and hubris, questioning humanity's role in the universe.

    There’s no room for failure in the robot apocalypse, not if you don’t want to get eaten. 
    With the world destroyed by insane, man-eating robots, only technomancers stand between humanity and utter annihilation. 
    Unfortunately, 64Bit might be the one technomancer who can’t command robots with his mind. As an acolyte, he has managed to hide his shame, but then an army of hungry robots came marching right toward his home settlement. Hopelessly unprepared, beyond the point that revealing his secret would do any good, 64Bit gambles everything on the slim chance that he might be able to wake his master from a coma before everyone is devoured.

    One second, the world works. The next, it doesn’t. 
    For ER nurse Sarah Mitchell, it was just the end of another brutal shift. For survivalist Jake Cooper, it was the day he’d been preparing for his entire life. When a high-altitude electromagnetic pulse (EMP) erases a century of progress in a silent flash, the two neighbors are thrown into a world without power, without rules, without hope. 
    While the unprepared descend into chaos, the organized and ruthless rise to build empires from the ashes. A brutal warlord named Marcus begins to consolidate power, hunting for those with the skills to rebuild his new world—or die resisting. At the top of his list: a combat-trained medic named Sarah. 
    Forced into an uneasy alliance, Sarah’s battle-hardened instincts and Jake’s encyclopedic knowledge of survival become a last-ditch effort to protect the innocent. Together with a small band of survivors, they must navigate a city that has become a hunting ground, where every shadow could hide an enemy and every choice could be their last. 
    This complete first season is a relentless, high-octane journey from the first moment the lights go out to a stunning cliffhanger that reveals the true, terrifying scope of the global catastrophe. When the world goes dark, the real monsters come out to play. 
    Don’t miss Blackout Nation: The complete Season One bundle narrated by the incomparable Adam Barr.

    A banished prince with the power to talk to animals must battle dangerous foes to free a princess in this fantasy adventure inspired by Russian folklore. 
     
    “A charming coming-of-age tale filled with earthy wit and magic.” —Publishers Weekly 
     
    Ilya, son of a Russian prince, is largely ignored by his father and tormented by his larger, older brothers. His only friends are three old people: a priest, a magician, and a woman who toils in the palace dairy. From them Ilya learns faith, a smattering of magic, and the power of love—all of which he will need desperately, for his life is about to be turned upside-down. 
     
    The prince’s magnificent cherry orchard is visited at midnight by the legendary Firebird, whose wings are made of flame. Ilya’s brothers’ attempts to capture the magical creature fail. When Ilya tries to catch the Firebird, he sees her as a beautiful woman and earns a magical gift: the speech of animals. 
     
    Banished, the young man journeys through a fantastical Russia full of magical mazes, enchanted creatures, and untold dangers. As happens in the best fairy tales, Ilya falls in love with an enchanted princess, but to win her freedom will be no easy task.

    The legendary Baron recounts his outrageously exaggerated exploits, blending humor, wit, and imagination. From riding cannonballs to outwitting Turkish armies, his tales defy logic and physics, showcasing his larger-than-life persona. Set against a backdrop of 18th-century travel and adventure, the stories satirize human vanity and the art of storytelling itself. Each escapade is more fantastical than the last, filled with absurdity, bravery, and cleverness. Raspe’s work captures the timeless allure of tall tales, celebrating creativity and the boundless limits of human imagination in a world where reality bends to whimsy.
