Book excerpt: Whenever I set out to write a story it is inevitably inspired by what I call a 'Big Question'. A small question would be, "I wonder what color car I should buy?". A Big Question would be, "What will be Humanity's role in the universe if we don't begin to evolve into a socially responsible creature?" or, "Why are there so many strikingly similar legends and historical allegories found around the world despite eons of cultural isolation and independent social evolution?", or "If Earth's historical Manifestations or Avatars of a Universal God, or even if they're just an indescribably complex clock-work universe's design, shouldn't Their influence be capable of a much farther reaching capacity than just this one little planet?", or "Why does Human religion feel like it wants people to be anything but what they naturally are?"Explore these questions in these four tales.

Download or read book How Rory Thorne Destroyed the Multiverse written by K. Eason and published by Astra Publishing House. This book was released on 2019-10-08 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First in a duology that reimagines fairy tale tropes within a space opera—The Princess Bride meets Princess Leia. Rory Thorne is a princess with thirteen fairy blessings, the most important of which is to see through flattery and platitudes. As the eldest daughter, she always imagined she’d inherit her father’s throne and govern the interplanetary Thorne Consortium. Then her father is assassinated, her mother gives birth to a son, and Rory is betrothed to the prince of a distant world. When Rory arrives in her new home, she uncovers a treacherous plot to unseat her newly betrothed and usurp his throne. An unscrupulous minister has conspired to name himself Regent to the minor (and somewhat foolish) prince. With only her wits and a small team of allies, Rory must outmaneuver the Regent and rescue the prince. How Rory Thorne Destroyed the Multiverse is a feminist reimagining of familiar fairytale tropes and a story of resistance and self-determination—how small acts of rebellion can lead a princess to not just save herself, but change the course of history.

Book excerpt: Liam Michaels isn't just a wealthy art dealer and photographer. He is actually Azrael, the angel of death, an immortal sentinel created thousands of years ago before the dawn of man for the purpose of finding and destroying true evil. Azrael and his Core, a group of highly trained commandos, have just squashed attempted attacks on New York and Chicago by terrorists wielding neutron bombs. In the process, they discovered who was behind the threat: the Ba, an ancient warrior people controlled by a demon-the demon Azrael has been battling for more than three thousand years. Now the fight is about to come to a climax as Azrael and his team pursue the demon across the United States and Europe in a desperate effort to prevent a global nuclear holocaust. While this high-tech thriller rides the borders of the imagination and tangles with the unthinkable, the futuristic weaponry and advanced military systems employed by Azrael and his commandos arise from technologies that actually exist today in prototype form. In this chilling tale of terrorism, Azrael and the Core must utilize their most daring maneuvers, ingenious countertactics, and flat-out heroics in a brutal battle over the fate of the world.

Download or read book The Allure of the Multiverse written by Paul Halpern and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2024-01-16 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A rich and rewarding history of one of the most astounding ideas in physics and astronomy” (Marcia Bartusiak) – that the universe we know isn’t the only one Our books, our movies—our imaginations—are obsessed with extra dimensions, alternate timelines, and the sense that all we see might not be all there is. In short, we can’t stop thinking about the multiverse. As it turns out, physicists are similarly captivated. In The Allure of the Multiverse, physicist Paul Halpern tells the epic story of how science became besotted with the multiverse, and the controversies that ensued. The questions that brought scientists to this point are big and deep: Is reality such that anything can happen, must happen? How does quantum mechanics “choose” the outcomes of its apparently random processes? And why is the universe habitable? Each question quickly leads to the multiverse. Drawing on centuries of disputation and deep vision, from luminaries like Nietzsche, Einstein, and the creators of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Halpern reveals the multiplicity of multiverses that scientists have imagined to make sense of our reality. Whether we live in one of many different possible universes, or simply the only one there is, might never be certain. But Halpern shows one thing for sure: how stimulating it can be to try to find out.
