Reunited with some welcome, familiar faces from his past, Kris’ quest to track down Vincent is on. A strange but compelling lead takes him to a glitzy casino in Monaco, and whispers of a fugitive arms dealer, and a shipment of human blood mysteriously stolen from a clinic.

Through hails of bullets and high-stakes poker, Kris finds himself drawn to the war-torn African nation of Nubalaya. There, he’s tasked with finding and capturing a fearsome rebel warlord, a man accused of the most heinous crimes, and believed by his enemies to possess supernatural strength.

Deep within the remorseless African wilderness, Kris will come to confront the so-called warlord, only to discover he’s quite unlike any foe he’s ever encountered…

A brand-new production of Andy Weir’s modern sci-fi classic, narrated by the incomparable Wil Wheaton, and featuring bonus content from the writings of Mark Watney.

Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars.

Now, he’s sure he’ll be the first person to die there.

After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he’s alive – and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive.

Chances are, though, he won’t have time to starve to death. The damaged machinery, unforgiving environment, or plain old “human error” are much more likely to kill him first.

But Mark isn’t ready to give up yet. Drawing on his ingenuity, his engineering skills – and a relentless, dogged refusal to quit – he steadfastly confronts one seemingly insurmountable obstacle after the next. Will his resourcefulness be enough to overcome the impossible odds against him?

Wil Wheaton, who has lent his voice to sci-fi blockbusters like Ready Player One and Redshirts, breathes new life (and plenty of sarcasm) into the iconic character of Mark Watney, making this edition a must-listen for both longtime fans of The Martian and new listeners alike.

BONUS MATERIAL: This edition includes the following extras:

“Diary of an AssCan” – Mark Watney, new astronaut“I Made It!” – A happy letter to Mom“Car Trouble” – A somewhat sad letter to Mom“The Earthling” – A postscript. *Available for the first time in this recording

Unlikely Stories (1st edition) is an anthology of horror & comedy stories — an exorcism, an alien encounter, a haunted lift, a seance, a shapeshifter, a werewolf — all wrapped in a very witty love story. The author originally intended to write a non-fiction book based on real-life incidents. He was however forced by several governments to name this book as ‘Unlikely Stories’ and release it only as a fiction title. The stories have turned out to be supernatural/paranormal/sci-fi fantasies with ample doses of action, horror and humour. The entire book is in first person and everything happens very fast. There is never a dull moment.

The trip: The lead is invited by his friend to a resort where he meets the first heroine Vampira.The swim: The lead decides that Vampira is his soul mate he has been waiting all his life. He tells several stories to entertain his friend’s kids and also impress Vampira.The exorcist: The second lead is an Indian crook who escapes to the West to start a new life. He attempts to go legit but finds competition from a professional medium operating under the trade name of Mademoiselle Zuma. She is dangerous because she is a mind-reader.Alien encounter: After the successful exorcism, this lead is asked to help a teenager who has been repeatedly ‘abducted’ by an alien.The lift: A recently deceased security guard haunts a lift where he had died and seeks revenge.Femme fatale: The second lead has a showdown with a female animal spirit.The seance: A young woman in the city is troubled by nightmares involving a hooded skeleton. A newly married nurse blanks out every night. She is also troubled by bizarre nightmares. Mademoiselle Zuma solves both cases.The haunting: An old mansion is haunted by a presence. Every new buyer and his family gets driven to such desperation that they eventually sell. The second lead investigates and almost gets killed.Family planning: The first lead and Vampira plan their life together. In the first ending, they get married. In the second ending (written by the lead after their first night), Stone Age Man (SAM) and Stone Age Woman (SAW) discover the mystery of life. (This is an over-the-top parody of the controversy about MEN WRITING WOMEN.) Other than some intimate events implied in comic fashion, there is no physical contact between the sexes in the entire book. Not even a kiss. The book is clean throughout. No swear words. No corny mushy dialogue. No degeneracy. No weirdness. Just no low-hanging fruit.

I can’t leave him on the side of the road.

Another storm hovers in the distance, and he’ll die if I don’t do anything. My nephews know it, and they beg me to help him. Their mother should be here to tell me what to do, but she’s gone.

Everyone’s gone.

When we lift his unconscious body into my Jeep, leaving for the refuge, I hope this will be the end of our struggles, but it’s only the beginning.

Now we’re trapped together, pretending to be married, forced to hide our identities and my… abilities.

We were once two strangers that collided by happenstance, but now we’re in this together, until the end.

Rowan is her nephews’ only hope of surviving the harrowing storms threatening to destroy the earth. She would do anything to protect them, including seeking refuge on a military vessel under an assumed identity. On their journey to safety, she and the boys stumble upon an unconscious stranger.

When Sam awakens in Rowan’s care, he’s given a chance at a fresh start. A man haunted by mistakes he made during the storms, he’s searching for redemption. He assumes the role of father and husband, hiding with them on the ship, hoping his old life never resurfaces.

They both have secrets — deep, dark things that can hurt their newfound family. Their floating refuge soon turns dangerous when the desire for power turns the people they depended on against them.

Neither of them can outrun their past, and Rowan is forced to tap into a part of herself she thought was dormant – forces others would be happy to steal and use to their advantage. Now they find themselves trapped out at sea, trusting no one but each other.

From the author of Exhalation, an award-winning short story collection that blends “absorbing storytelling with meditations on the universe, being, time and space … raises questions about the nature of reality and what it is to be human” (The New York Times).

Stories of Your Life and Others delivers dual delights of the very, very strange and the heartbreakingly familiar, often presenting characters who must confront sudden change—the inevitable rise of automatons or the appearance of aliens—with some sense of normalcy. With sharp intelligence and humor, Chiang examines what it means to be alive in a world marked by uncertainty, but also by beauty and wonder. An award-winning collection from one of today’s most lauded writers, Stories of Your Life and Others is a contemporary classic.

The classic collaboration from the internationally bestselling authors Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett, now an original series starring Michael Sheen and David Tennant.

Season 2 of Good Omens coming soon!

“Good Omens . . . is something like what would have happened if Thomas Pynchon, Tom Robbins and Don DeLillo had collaborated. Lots of literary inventiveness in the plotting and chunks of very good writing and characterization. It’s a wow. It would make one hell of a movie. Or a heavenly one. Take your pick.”—Washington Post

According to The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch (the world’s only completely accurate book of prophecies, written in 1655, before she exploded), the world will end on a Saturday. Next Saturday, in fact. Just before dinner.

So the armies of Good and Evil are amassing, Atlantis is rising, frogs are falling, tempers are flaring. Everything appears to be going according to Divine Plan. Except a somewhat fussy angel and a fast-living demon—both of whom have lived amongst Earth’s mortals since The Beginning and have grown rather fond of the lifestyle—are not actually looking forward to the coming Rapture.

And someone seems to have misplaced the Antichrist . . .
