Book excerpt: Here are six exciting scifi books from genre author, Adam Drake. Ranging from LitRPG to post-apocalyptic to space opera. Shadow Gambit (Shadow For Hire Book 1) An impossible quest for a legendary item. I love questing for loot. And the more difficult the quest, the greater the reward. So when I'm offered a chance to retrieve the ultimate treasure of all, I signed up. Yet no one warned me the task would be impossible. Against overwhelming odds I'm also expected to defeat an ancient evil - one with the power of a god. But you know what? Some loot is worth risking it all. Shadow Hunting (Shadow For Hire Book 2) The most powerful player in the gaming universe wants me dead. Now I have a price on my head with tens of thousands of bounty hunters out to kill me. But I can only run for so long. I need to put an end to this madness once and for all. If I'm going to die, it will be on my own terms. The tables must be turned. Time to go hunting. Shadow Wars (Shadow For Hire Book 3) I'm a loot-hunting adventurer, not a general. I play online MMOs for exciting quests, to level my character and find cool loot. Not to lead armies. But now I have to fight a battle to get the quest item I desperately need. I've never commanded troops or built bases or strategized an attack more complex than a dungeon raid. When it comes to war, I'm a complete noob. Yet, defeat isn't an option. I've got to win or everything I've worked so hard for will be lost. So, they want a war? I'll give them one. Shadow Blade (Shadow For Hire Book 4) A hallowed weapon hidden in a jungle hell. Forced to prove my worthiness to an elite group of players, I must earn the right to enter one of the most notorious locations in the game. The Emerald Caldera has a fearsome reputation for chewing up would-be adventurers and quickly sending them back to the newbie zone. Filled with dungeon temples, monstrous beasts and dark-magic cults, the jungles of this mysterious island are deserving of respect. And I must plunge headlong into them because it's here where I can find the next elusive item in my Legendary Armor Set: The Shadow Blade Blackout: Day One The nightmare begins. In one fell swoop, civilization is changed forever. No one is unaffected, few are prepared. Some become survivors, others - easy prey. Only the strong, and crazy, will survive. Through the blood and chaos, civilization will be permanently transformed. And it all begins with one terrifying moment, when the lights go out and never come back on. Blackout.

When Ash and Femke Quinly decide to steal a transport ship from the local criminal syndicate, their troubles have just begun. With enemies in relentless pursuit, and their options dwindling, an already dangerous situation becomes more futile. But when the universe is gunning for you, there is one insane option only the truly desperate can take: They must escape to the Fringe! litrpg, fantasy, gamelit, rpg, cyberpunk, female mc, female protagonist, series, action, adventure, video games, mmo, role playing games, vr, virtual reality, wuxia, cultivation, science fiction, bundle, collection, omnibus, space opera, thriller, series, space ship, alien, aliens, space, dystopian, post apocalyptic, horror, series, survivor, bunker, emp

Download or read book Machines in the Head written by Anna Kavan and published by New York Review of Books. This book was released on 2020-02-18 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Enter the strange and haunting world of Anna Kavan, author of mind-bending stories that blend science fiction and the author's own harrowing experiences with drug addiction, in this new collection of her best short stories. Anna Kavan is one of the great originals of twentieth-century fiction, comparable to Leonora Carrington and Jean Rhys, a writer whose stories explored the inner world of her imagination and plumbed the depths of her long addiction to heroin. This new selection of Kavan’s stories gathers the best work from across the many decades of her career, including oblique and elegiac tales of breakdown and institutionalization from Asylum Piece (1940), moving evocations of wartime from I Am Lazarus (1945), fantastic and surrealist pieces from A Bright Green Field (1958), and stories of addiction from Julia and the Bazooka (1970). Kavan’s turn to science fiction in her final novel, Ice, is reflected in her late stories, while “Starting a Career,” about a mercenary dealer of state secrets, is published here for the first time. Kavan experimented throughout her writing career with results that are moving, funny, bizarre, poignant, often unsettling, always unique. Machines in the Head offers American readers the first full overview of the work of a fearless and dazzling literary explorer.

Download or read book The Best Science Fiction Bundle written by Michael Mathiesen and published by Michael Mathiesen. This book was released on 2023-03-08 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Best Science Fiction Book Bundle is a combination of two of my latest works. First: The Book to End All Books and Second: The Jupiter Sun. During the writing of The Book to End all Books, I found my heroine traveling to a moon of Jupiter and working on igniting the Gas Giant of Jupiter into our 2nd Sun in the sky. As I was writing this story, it seemed to me that this kind of thing could only be possible after we convinced the populations of the Earth that it was necessary to have a 2nd sun in the sky and present them all with far fewer totally dark nights. Many of the days would be longer or at least Moonlit due to the 2nd sun in the sky. SO, this part of my story when we do finally get our 2nd sun takes place almost one thousand years from now. After finishing that book, I suddenly realized that we didn't have that kind of time left at the rate that we're continuing to use fossil fuels more and more and more people all around the world are demanding a higher standard of living which means even more CO2 in the air wherefore the tipping point, the point in time where we would no longer be able to stop the rush to our own extinction would become closer and closer. Some say it's too late already. But, always being an optimist rather than a pessimist and always seeing the glass as half full rather than half-empty, I decided to write a companion book that would explain in great detail and using the latest scientific evidence that if we did Ignite Jupiter into our 2nd sun, it might be enough extra solar energy, free, clean and renewable energy that could rapidly replace fossil fuels and thus save our planet. So, the two books combined, I believe make a really effective case for igniting the planet Jupiter which came close to being our 2nd sun but did not have a midwife nearby to attend the birth of same and so the poor planet lies off in the outer parts of our solar system, on the other side of Mars and waits patiently for some intelligent life to come along and help her in her delivery. If we can put a man on the moon, as they say, we can surely do just about anything we set our minds to. Here's to humans saving their planet and SOON. If you share my desire to be part of something really spectacular like creating a star in the sky, and being able to say that you were alive at the moment when mankind reached their pinnacle of knowledge and wisdom and at the time when they could create humankind's greatest achievement, then get this book bundle and jump on in.
