Halo: Retribution Troy Denning Titan Books Ltd
December 2553. Less than a year after the end of the Covenant War, a string of violent incidents continues to threaten the tenuous peace in human-held space ... culminating in the assassination of UNSC fleet admiral Graselyn Tuwa and the abduction of her family. It is a provocation so outrageous that the Office of Naval Intelligence must retaliate swiftly and ferociously-but only after its operatives identify her killer and rescue the hostages. This mission will be the first for homicide-detective-turned-ONIoperative Veta Lopis and her young team of Spartan-IIIs, and something feels wrong from the start. The obvious suspect is an infamous Brute who leads the Keepers of the One Freedom, an ex-Covenant splinter group in fierce opposition to the UNSC. But Lopis and her team soon realize that the truth is much more insidious than they could ever have imagined, and with Fred-104, Kelly-087, and Linda-058 of Blue Team for combat support, they must stop a plan hatched in the bowels of the secret research station Argent Moon-a plan so sinister it could destroy all those still reeling from thirty years of intergalactic conflict ...

Halo: Silent Storm Troy Denning Titan Books Ltd
2526. It has been a year since humanity engaged in its destructive first contact with a theocratic military alliance of alien races known as the Covenant. Now the hostilities have led to open war, and the United Nations Space Command understands virtually nothing about its new enemy. There are only two certainties-the Covenant is determined to eradicate humanity, and they have the superior technology to do just that. The UNSC\'s only hope lies with the Spartans: enhanced supersoldiers raised and trained from childhood via a clandestine black ops project to be living weapons. Their designated commander, Petty Officer John-117, has been assigned to lead the Spartans on a desperate counterattack designed to rock the Covenant back on its heels, to buy humanity the time it needs to gather intelligence and prepare its defenses. But not everyone wants the Spartans to succeed. A coalition of human insurrectionist leaders believes an alliance with the Covenant to be its best hope of finally winning independence from the United Earth Government. To further their plans, the insurrectionists have dispatched a sleeper agent to sabotage the UNSC counterattack and ensure that John-117 and the Spartans never return from battle. . . .

Gears of War: Bloodlines Jason M. Hough Titan Books Ltd
The new novel set within the action of the Xbox Game Studios video game Gears 5, by New York Times bestselling author Jason Hough. THE OFFICIAL TIE-IN TO THE EXCITING VIDEO GAMES GEARS 5 AND GEARS TACTICS In the aftermath of Settlement 2\'s destruction, Kait Diaz reels from the near loss of a close friend amid utter defeat at the hands of the Swarm. To move forward, she must choose either to walk the Outsider path of her mother, or rise to her beckoning duty as a Gear, as her father did. As Kait grapples with her circumstance, an unexpected ally illuminates secrets from the past that offer a new perspective. Over four decades before, the two superpowers of Sera - the Coalition of Ordered Governments, and the Union of Independent Republics - wage a bitter, worldwide conflict known as the Pendulum Wars. For nearly a century, the two have fought to wrest control over Sera\'s most precious energy resource: Imulsion. On the 79th year of the Pendulum Wars, Gabriel Diaz is a decorated Lieutenant Colonel serving the Coalition, assigned to Vectes Naval Base - a fortress that\'s seen little action despite its close proximity to UIR territory. The island\'s relative quiet is disturbed when a COG special forces team known as Ghost Squad arrive with a mysterious mission to the nearby island of Knifespire: an unforgiving rock of seemingly no strategic value. When the Ghosts send out a distress call, it\'s up to Gabe to evacuate them - and what he discovers on Knifespire could change the very course of the Pendulum Wars. There, the Battle of Gatka Ridge will define Gabe\'s legacy, and shape the future of his daughter, Kait Diaz. Σελίδες: 352, Διαστάσεις: 13x13cm

This Virtual Night C.S. Friedman Head of Zeus -- an AdAstra Book
A return to the world of This Alien Shore, set in the second age of stellar colonization. When deep-space travel altered the genes of the first interstellar colonists, Earth abandoned them. But some of the colonies survived, and a new civilization of mental and physical \'Variants\' has been established, centered around clusters of space stations known as the outworlds. Now the unthinkable has happened: a suicide assault has destroyed the life-support system of a major waystation. All that is known about the young men responsible is that in their last living moments they were receiving messages from an uninhabited sector of space, and were playing a virtual reality game. Two unlikely allies have joined forces to investigate the incident: Ru Gaya, a mercenary explorer with a taste for high risk ventures, and game designer Micah Bello, who must find the parties responsible for the attack in order to clear his name. From the corridors of a derelict station lost to madness to an outlaw stronghold in the depths of uncharted space, the two now follow the trail of an enemy who can twist human minds to his purpose, and whose plans could bring about the collapse of outworld civilization. Praise for C. S. Friedman: \'In interweaving the many threads of her narrative, Friedman has created a potent metaphor for the toleration of diversity\' – NEW YORK TIMES \'In many ways, C. S. Friedman\'s work reminds me of William Gibson\'s – unique settings, complex and fascinating (though not necessarily likeable) characters, cool ideas and technology, a smart and savvy style\' – FANTASY LITERATURE \'There is so much of interest here and rather than spend paragraph after paragraph describing it all, which I could easily do, I will simply tell you to read it. It is a great book and well worth your time\' – WORLDS WITHOUT END Σελίδες: 528, Έτος Έκδοσης: 1201, Διαστάσεις: 12.9x12.9cm

The Body Snatchers Jack Finney Gateway
Originally published in 1955 Jack Finney\'s sinister SF tale has outgrown the initial debate about whether it satirized Communism or the conformity of US society at the time, to become a classic of paranoia; an examination of our fear of \'the other\'.Most people know the story from seeing THE INVASION OF THE BODY SNATCHERS, the classic 1978 remake (one of the few Hollwood remakes said to better than the original, made in 1956) starring Donald Sutherland. Here\'s your chance to read the original source; a story that has resonated with readers and viewers for more than 50 years. Σελίδες: 240, Έτος Έκδοσης: 2010, Διαστάσεις: 13x13cm
