Sinossi

A Princess of Mars is a science fantasy novel by Edgar Rice Burroughs, the first of his Barsoom series.
John Carter, a Confederate veteran of the American Civil War, goes prospecting in Arizona immediately after the war's end. Having struck a rich vein of gold, he runs afoul of the Apaches. While attempting to evade pursuit by hiding in a sacred cave, he is mysteriously transported to Mars, called "Barsoom" by its inhabitants. Carter finds that he has great strength and superhuman agility in this new environment as a result of its lesser gravity and lower atmospheric pressure. He soon falls in with a nomadic tribe of Green Martians, or Tharks, as the planet's warlike, six-limbed, green-skinned inhabitants are known. Thanks to his strength and martial prowess, Carter rises to a high position in the tribe and earns the respect and eventually the friendship of Tars Tarkas, one of the Thark chiefs.

He's fought spider-dragons, battled space clowns, and been repeatedly tortured by the galaxy's oldest assassin.And don't even get him started on the squirrel-tits.Now all that's behind him, Cal just wants to kick back and relax. The universe, however, has other ideas.He and his crew find themselves in possession of the Symmorium Sentience, a once god-like entity now stripped of its power. The Sentience needs help to return home and restore the Symmorium species, which recently found itself the subject of an unfortunate genocide.But with dark forces seeking to turn the Sentience's power into a planet-pulverizing weapon, the team's trek across the galaxy becomes a desperate race against time, with the fate of the very cosmos at stake.Featuring awkward space-dates, gene-splicing villains, and a packet of coconut fingers as old as time itself, Space Team: Sentienced to Death is the eleventh book in the bestselling Space Team series by multi-award-winning author Barry J. Hutchison, and perfect for fans of funny stuff happening in space.Performed by Phil Thron, Danny Gavigan, Carolyn Kashner, Darius Johnson, Yasmin Tuazon, Christopher Walker, Stephanie Németh-Parker, Marni Penning, Laura C.

    Alien Firestorm is a fast-paced military sci-fi shooter filled with guns, tech and warfare. It follows on from book 1 in the Fire and Rust Series: Iron Dogs. Humanity has made peace with the Fangrin aliens and now it turns out the dogs were never the real threat. Now, the Raggers have come. An unprovoked Ragger incendiary attack on the human city of Satra kills millions. Not everyone dies. Lieutenant Tanner Conway and a few of his squad survive the flames, as does Captain Jake Griffin, his spaceship Star Burner brought down by enemy fire. The survivors want payback, but it’s hard to beat an alien attack fleet when you’re stuck in the middle of a burning city. The fight will take Conway and Griffin from the ruined city to a spaceship with capabilities beyond reckoning. Victory will save billions from death, but it’s going to take skill, guts and a lot of dead aliens before it happens.
