Tuck Durante, a shipraider, and Lana Gray, a curator, must work together to try to rescue a space capsule hijacked by nightmarish creatures who kill with a scream in this frightening, fast-paced adventure from the author of the acclaimed horror novel "Shutter."
This novella length hard Sci-Fi book begins the "Stasis Stories," a series of tales from the near future. They tell us about Kaem Seba, a sickly and financially destitute young man who uses his extraordinary math talents to work out a way to stop time within limited volumes of space-time. He and Arya Vaii, a business student, set out to develop the phenomenon.It quickly becomes obvious that, beyond the fact that time stops inside the stasis field, the volume of space-time in stasis might be useful for some of its other phenomenal properties. Since it essentially can't be altered (time's stopped inside) it's stronger than any known substance and, unlike matter, does not melt. This makes it the perfect material for building rocket engines. They set out to sell such engines in order to provide their budding business enough profit to let them develop other useful products.Unfortunately, the owner of the lab that tested the properties of their samples also recognizes their potential. His desire to share in their profits unhinges his shaky grasp on reality. When he can't talk them into letting him join their enterprise, he demands a share at gunpoint.
This hard Sci-Fi novel is the third book in the "Stasis Stories," a series of optimistic tales of technological innovation in the near future. They follow Kaem Seba, a sickly and financially destitute young man with extraordinary math talents. With his friends, he's developed a device that allows him to stop time within limited volumes of space-time. In this story, Kaem and company are commercially developing "Stade," which is what they call a piece of space-time that's in stasis. Stade's phenomenal properties (because it essentially can't be altered since time's been stopped within it) allow it to reflect all radiation. When a nearby nuclear reactor undergoes a meltdown, the first thought is that stade might be used to limit the radioactivity from the accident.But a little further thought makes it obvious that stade is also the perfect material for dealing with radioactive waste. They also become interested in using it to remediate a toxic chemical dump.They're still using it to build rocket engines. And working on plans for a space elevator!
Hugo and Shirley Jackson award-winning Peter Watts stands on the cutting edge of hard SF with his acclaimed novel, Blindsight Two months since the stars fell... Two months of silence, while a world held its breath. Now some half-derelict space probe, sparking fitfully past Neptune's orbit, hears a whisper from the edge of the solar system: a faint signal sweeping the cosmos like a lighthouse beam. Whatever's out there isn't talking to us. It's talking to some distant star, perhaps. Or perhaps to something closer, something en route. So who do you send to force introductions with unknown and unknowable alien intellect that doesn't wish to be met? You send a linguist with multiple personalities, her brain surgically partitioned into separate, sentient processing cores. You send a biologist so radically interfaced with machinery that he sees x-rays and tastes ultrasound. You send a pacifist warrior in the faint hope she won't be needed. You send a monster to command them all, an extinct hominid predator once called vampire, recalled from the grave with the voodoo of recombinant genetics and the blood of sociopaths. And you send a synthesist—an informational topologist with half his mind gone—as an interface between here and there. Pray they can be trusted with the fate of a world. They may be more alien than the thing they've been sent to find. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.
This hard Sci-Fi novel is the second book in the "Stasis Stories," a series of tales from the near future. They tell us about Kaem Seba, a sickly and financially destitute young man with extraordinary math talents. He's developed a theory and an electronic device that allows him to stop time within limited volumes of space-time. In this story Kaem and Arya are trying to sell "stade," which is what they call a piece of space-time that's in stasis. Stade has phenomenal mechanical properties because it essentially can't be altered (time's stopped within it). It's stronger than any known substance because, unlike matter, stade cannot not melt, burn, bend or break. It's also a perfect insulator and reflects all radiation.Though it's the perfect material for thousands of different purposes, they've initially focused on selling it to companies that can use it to build rocket engines. Stade truly shines under the extreme conditions of rocketry, and that renders it precious. He and Arya are struggling to negotiate the best prices they can, while simultaneously fighting another company's bid to preempt their patent.As if those struggles weren't sufficient, Kaem's beloved father develops cancer. Kaem must try to help his family through that crisis while simultaneously attempting to save the new company they're calling "Staze."
This hard Sci-Fi novel is the fifth book in the "Stasis Stories," a series of optimistic tales of technological innovation in the near future. They follow Kaem Seba, a young man with extraordinary math talents. With his friends, he's developing a device that allows time to be stopped within limited volumes of space-time. In this 5th story, Kaem's newfound physical fitness is letting him perform at an astonishing level in physical endeavors such as soccer, and martial arts. The company he, Arya Vaii, and Gunnar Schmidt founded to commercially develop his time-stopping discovery making money hand over fist. Currently, their profits come from their use of the phenomenal physical properties of a time-stopped segment of space-time to build rockets.But now they are building their space tower. Taking off at a thirty-degree angle from eastern Virginia, it's 200 kilometers long and a hundred kilometers high. By placing the interior of their spacecraft-and its passengers-in stasis they can accelerate launches at fifteen gravities, reaching orbital speeds before the craft leaves the rail! This lets them put payloads in orbit for a thousand times less than a rocket. The world, and some unscrupulous people, are turning to Kaem and his company to further our exploitation of orbital space...
This hard Sci-Fi novel is the sixth book in the "Stasis Stories," a series of optimistic tales of technological innovation in the near future. They follow Kaem Seba, a young man with extraordinary math talents. With his friends, he's come up with a device that allows time to be stopped within limited volumes of space-time. In this 6th story, the company Kaem, Arya Vaii, and Gunnar Schmidt founded to commercially develop his time-stopping discovery is working with NASA to move into deep space.Using the space tower from book 5 they launch large payloads into orbit to start building a rotating wheel space station and launch a successor to the James Webb Space Telescope. Then they put a space-launch tower on the moon that's aimed at sending craft all over the solar system.Unbeknownst to them, the Haliq, a race of aliens in the Epsilon Eridani system is launching its own ships to the Sol system with the intent of finding more space for their burgeoning population. When they arrive, they're alarmed to find intelligent beings in the system they've come to populate, but their obvious solution is to exterminate the problematic humans.The aliens have an advanced technology that lets them jump across interstellar and interplanetary space.But they don't have stasis...
THE STORY: The home of the Blackwoods near a Vermont village is a lonely, ominous abode, and Constance, the young mistress of the place, can't go out of the house without being insulted and stoned by the villagers. They have also composed a nasty s
Sixteen-year-old Olwen, who lives alone on the planet Isis with her faithful robot, falls tragically in love with an arrival from earth who is unaware that her natural form has been hidden in a humanlike space suit.
In a long overdue contribution to geography and social theory, Katherine McKittrick offers a new and powerful interpretation of black women’s geographic thought. In Canada, the Caribbean, and the United States, black women inhabit diasporic locations marked by the legacy of violence and slavery. Analyzing diverse literatures and material geographies, McKittrick reveals how human geographies are a result of racialized connections, and how spaces that are fraught with limitation are underacknowledged but meaningful sites of political opposition. Demonic Grounds moves between past and present, archives and fiction, theory and everyday, to focus on places negotiated by black women during and after the transatlantic slave trade. Specifically, the author addresses the geographic implications of slave auction blocks, Harriet Jacobs’s attic, black Canada and New France, as well as the conceptual spaces of feminism and Sylvia Wynter’s philosophies. Central to McKittrick’s argument are the ways in which black women are not passive recipients of their surroundings and how a sense of place relates to the struggle against domination. Ultimately, McKittrick argues, these complex black geographies are alterable and may provide the opportunity for social and cultural change. Katherine McKittrick is assistant professor of women’s studies at Queen’s University.
