Condition: Good. SAVE THE SOLAR SYSTEM FROM THE ULTIMATE COLLAPSE In the eighth decade of the Queendom of Sol, three commodities rule the day. The first is wellstone, a form of programmable matter capable of emulating almost any substance. The second is collapsium, a deadly crystal composed of miniature black holes, vital for the transmission of information and matter?including humans?throughout the Solar System. The third is the bitter rivalry between Her Majesty's top scientists. Bruno de Towaji, famed lover and statesman, dreams of building an arc de fin, an almost mythical device capable of probing the farthest reaches of spacetime. Marlon Sykes, de Towaji's rival in both love and science, is meanwhile hard at work on a vast telecommunications project whose first step is the construction of a ring of collapsium around the Sun. But when a ruthless saboteur attacks the Ring Collapsiter and sends it falling into the Sun, the two scientists must put aside personal animosity and combine their prodigious intellects to prevent the destruction of the Solar System?and every living thing within it. About The Collapsium: ?Ingenious and witty . . . as if Terry Pratchett at his zaniest and Larry Niven at his best had collaborated.??Booklist "Fresh and imaginative.  From a plausible yet startling invention, McCarthy follows the logical lines of sight, building in parallel the technological and societal innovations."?Science Fiction Weekly "The future as McCarthy sees it is a wondrous place." ?Publishers Weekly "[McCarthy] studs his narrative with far-out scientific concepts. . . . He certainly has a sense of humor."?The New York Times ?An ingenious yarn with challenging ideas, well-handled technical details, and plenty of twists and turns.??Kirkus.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. In the idyllic town of Lake Esther, Florida, little is allowed to ripple the surface calm--which is just the way Sheriff Kyle Deluth likes it. But when Deluth "removes" two young children from the local school because of the color of their skin, the sheriff's senseless act of cruelty sparks a fire under the women of Lake Esther that will scorch the lives of all involved. In their pursuit of justice, an indomitable heiress, a revered journalist, and a fading Southern Belle will forge an unlikely alliance across the racial divide. One that will change the face of the town--and their lives--forever.

Paperback. Condition: Good. When the Florida Agricultural College in Lake City became the University of Florida and moved south to Gainesville in 1906, it had a very fledgling football team, although worthy opponents were difficult to find. Little by little, as the school increased in size and reputation, its football team attracted higher-performing athletes and sterner opponents until it was willing to play any team in the country. In 1966, the team had its first Heisman Trophy winner, but it was not until 30 years later that UF won its first national championship. Since then UF has chalked up two more Heisman Trophy winners and two more national championships. With a selection of fine historic images from his bestselling book, Historic Photos of University of Florida Football, Kevin McCarthy provides a valuable and revealing historical retrospective on the growth and development of University of Florida football. Remembering University of Florida Football chronicles the rise of one of the premier football programs in the country through over one hundred black-and-white photographs, each of them captioned and with introductions. The book includes photos of the university and the surrounding community to which the Fightin' Gators have become so much an integral part.…

What if our legends are older than we think?  All the Stone Age has left behind are rocks and bones; all other materials have rotted away, leaving no trace.  But what if ?cave men? never existed, and the Stone Age was a time of great sophistication still preserved in our oldest stories?
