Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Braxton Thorpe has discovered a threat to the entire Solar System, but he has a problem: he's dead. Frozen at death, he awakens to find himself uploaded into an electronic matrix. Exploring beyond the matrix and the larger GlobalNet, he discovers the Oort, a distributed electronic entity older than humanity, with an unnerving secret: aliens wiped out nearly all life on Earth once, and are coming back to do it again. The mathematical entity that is Thorpe has to find a way to convince humans of the threat, and in time to do something about it. But how, and what? If you've read Niven's "A World Out of Time" or Taylor's "We Are Legion," the opening of "Icicle" will only "seem" familiar. Buckle up for a wild ride; you ain't seen nothing.

Download or read book SLINGSHOT written by Robert G. Williscroft and published by Fresh Ink Group. This book was released on 2023-06-28 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Slingshot is a love story – about a man, a woman, another man, another woman, some gender-bending...and a machine, the largest ever built. Slingshot is a mystery – about a missing aviatrix, a conspiracy, a true-believer. Slingshot is an adventure – about following a dream, the ocean-deep, outer space. Slingshot is about constructing the first space launch- loop stretching 2,600 km between Baker and Jarvis Islands in the Equatorial Pacific. It’s about high finance, intrigue, unlimited ambition, heroism, fanaticism, betrayal...and about opening space to the common person. The setting is the day-after-tomorrow. Technology has advanced, the web is more pervasive than ever, but human ambition and greed remain unchanged. In Slingshot, Alex Regent, Margo Jackson, and Klaus Blumenfeld reach for the stars as they blend their skills to create the world’s first space launch-loop, backed by major software money. Environmental fanatic Lars Watson with his team of young eco-terrorists are funded by opposing financial interests, who will go to any length to halt the project. Reporter Lori Kutcher indiscriminately applies her own personal skills to ensure it is she who reports the unfolding events to a watching world. With a cast of 69, Slingshot takes you from Seattle’s world financial district, to the ocean bottom at 5,000 feet off Baker Island, to the edge of space 80 km above. You play with dolphins and battle sharks. You fly and sail and dive, you work and play and love across the vast panorama of an Equatorial Pacific being put to leash to serve humanity’s surge into outer space. While its accurate science and precise engineering will appeal to hard science-fiction buffs, Slingshot’s major focus is the grand journey, the opening of outer space to the common person by men and women who loom larger than life as they work, play, and love.

Download or read book Project Mankind written by Ashwin Vinoo and published by Ashwin Vinoo. This book was released on 2023-10-04 with total page 668 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mankind lives in an illusion of freedom, unaware of their true origins and purpose... We didn’t come directly from apes as Darwinians claim. Rather, mankind is the seventh version of a hybridization experiment run by extraterrestrials to create a slave warrior race that can also function as a source of genetic material to advance our creators. Most of these races look humanoid and were once the Gods of our civilization, who descended from the skies in their fiery chariots and guided humanity’s first civilizations. However, over time, man was made to forget his origins as it was deemed that him realizing that he wasn’t free would interfere with the program. A few millennia pass and our cities are buzzing with technology that came out of nowhere shortly after UFO sightings began. Since the 1950s, people have reported lights in the sky, alien encounters, and reports of government-run secret space programs using reverse-engineered extraterrestrial technology. In the meantime, our governments continue to lie about UFOs and extraterrestrials; stating that they lack any tangible evidence despite the incredible number of eyewitnesses coming forward, whose testimonies are detailed and interconnecting. Unbeknownst to the public, there is a plan in place to wipe out the majority of the world population and replace them with grey-human hybrids that were created with reproductive material acquired through mass human abductions conducted by grey aliens. This plan will take place after a solar flash event will raise the background frequency of our planet and induce a pole-shift that will trigger floods and other catastrophes. The shift in frequency will result in the failure of all the electronics we have come to depend on, and it will render our race helpless. In this period of great human suffering, the Gods will descend once again, bearing gifts that will pacify our situation, provided we allow them to administer us. The question is “Will mankind wake up in time to avert their fate?”. This book is tailored to provide the serious investigator a framework of understanding on the ET and paranormal phenomenon

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2019 HUGO AWARD FINALIST, BEST NOVEL The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy meets the joy and glamour of Eurovision in bestselling author Catherynne M. Valente's science fiction spectacle, where sentient races compete for glory in a galactic musical contest…and the stakes are as high as the fate of planet Earth. A century ago, the Sentience Wars tore the galaxy apart and nearly ended the entire concept of intelligent space-faring life. In the aftermath, a curious tradition was invented—something to cheer up everyone who was left and bring the shattered worlds together in the spirit of peace, unity, and understanding. Once every cycle, the great galactic civilizations gather for the Metagalactic Grand Prix—part gladiatorial contest, part beauty pageant, part concert extravaganza, and part continuation of the wars of the past. Species far and wide compete in feats of song, dance and/or whatever facsimile of these can be performed by various creatures who may or may not possess, in the traditional sense, feet, mouths, larynxes, or faces. And if a new species should wish to be counted among the high and the mighty, if a new planet has produced some savage group of animals, machines, or algae that claim to be, against all odds, sentient? Well, then they will have to compete. And if they fail? Sudden extermination for their entire species. This year, though, humankind has discovered the enormous universe. And while they expected to discover a grand drama of diplomacy, gunships, wormholes, and stoic councils of aliens, they have instead found glitter, lipstick, and electric guitars. Mankind will not get to fight for its destiny—they must sing. Decibel Jones and the Absolute Zeroes have been chosen to represent their planet on the greatest stage in the galaxy. And the fate of Earth lies in their ability to rock.
