Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Four centuries after Pompeii was buried, they are still trying to live in the ashes.Colonia Vana: The Gray Settlement is a literary historical novel about a colony founded in the shadow of Mount Vesuvius-a settlement built not in ignorance of catastrophe, but in defiance of it.Generation aft…er generation returns to the same poisoned ground. They excavate ruins, rebuild homes, write plans, refine methods, and convince themselves that intelligence, organization, and perseverance can succeed where nature has already delivered its verdict. Each generation believes it has solved the problem. Each generation is wrong.Told through journals, letters, technical reports, and the final account of the last surviving witness, this is the story of a community defined by its refusal to leave-and of the slow transformation of disaster into routine, danger into normal life, and death into acceptable cost.At once a historical narrative and a philosophical meditation, Colonia Vana explores enduring questions: Can knowledge overcome reality?When does resilience become denial?And how long can a civilization persist once it begins mistaking survival for success?Set amid the gray ruins of Pompeii and the ever-present threat of Vesuvius, this is a haunting portrait of human persistence, ambition, and the quiet tragedy of learning the wrong lessons from history.For readers of literary historical fiction, generational sagas, and thoughtful novels about civilization, collapse, and the limits of human control.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. When twelve-year-old Mar unearths a glowing tablet in her family's frozen field, she discovers an impossible artifact: the personal journal of Frederic Greenland, a time traveler from the distant past. As a new ice age descends upon her world, Mar painstakingly transcribes the cryptic charac…ters before her desperate family sells the device to survive.Ten thousand years earlier, Greenland embarks on humanity's most dangerous experiment-transitioning through time in a quantum displacement craft. His mission: to find the fifteen soldiers who vanished into the temporal unknown before him, and to understand why each transition propels him further into Earth's future.Across millennia, two stories converge. Mar's discovery sets in motion a chain of events that leads brilliant researcher Dr. Bial de Canadia to uncover the truth about General Terranova's catastrophic time travel experiment-and its connection to the approaching ice age that threatens to end civilization.From the collapsed farms of a freezing frontier to the quantum laboratories of a forgotten past, from the desperate tech markets of World's End to the moment when time itself exploded, QUANTUM FUTURES weaves together an epic tale of human ingenuity, environmental catastrophe, and the eternal question: if we could travel through time, would we use it to save ourselves, or seal our doom?A literary science fiction masterwork that combines the climate urgency of Kim Stanley Robinson's THE MINISTRY FOR THE FUTURE with the temporal complexity of Ted Chiang's EXHALATION, QUANTUM FUTURES explores what happens when humanity's greatest achievement becomes its ultimate curse.Perfect for fans of time travel paradoxes, climate fiction, and character-driven science fiction that asks the hardest questions about our relationship with technology, time, and the planet we call home.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. What if your pet could finally tell you what they're thinking? When two amateur researchers at a pet supply company rig up a brainwave-reading device as a side project, it works better than expected - but only on one animal. Josie, the office tortoiseshell cat, produces neural signals that a…re clearer, more organized, and more distinct than anything they've ever seen. The question isn't why the device works. The question is why it works so much better on her.The trail leads from a chain of shelter records to an exotic animal importer to a single extraordinary fact: Josie's ancestors were rescued from the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone, where a generation of radiation exposure has done something impossible to the local wildlife. The animals there don't just have unusual neural patterns - they seem to broadcast them. And somewhere in the abandoned ruins of Pripyat, a pack of semi-wild dogs is wailing into the night in vocalizations that don't match anything in the scientific literature.When Ukrainian biologist Dr. Kateryna Bondar makes contact, her message is urgent: come to the Zone, come soon, and don't tell anyone you're coming. Because someone else has already noticed.Racing through the contaminated wilderness against a rival team with military funding and no ethical constraints, the two researchers discover that the mutation is real, extraordinary, and potentially world-changing. But getting the data out means surviving a cat-and-mouse chase through collapsing Soviet hospitals, a confrontation at Pripyat's iconic rusted Ferris wheel, and a sprint to publication against a charismatic Russian scientist who intends to own the discovery.Back home, with their data intact and Josie waiting on the couch, they have one chance to prove what they found - and to decide who it belongs to.The answer, it turns out, might come from the cat.ANIMOTIONS is a science fiction thriller in the tradition of Michael Crichton's accessible, high-stakes techno-fiction. It will appeal to readers of The Martian, Jurassic Park, and Annihilation - and to anyone who has ever wondered what their pet is trying to tell them. This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. When the federal government dismantles the American safety net-slashing Medicare, SNAP, and public housing in a single sweeping decree-a coalition of nonprofits does something unexpected: they don't petition. They build.The Eclipse Mandate: Ruling from the Shadows follows Maya Reyes, a forme…r foundation coordinator who spends seven years assembling the Commons, a mutual aid network that grows from three Philadelphia nonprofits sharing patient data into a distributed system serving forty-seven million Americans with healthcare, food, housing, and childcare. As the network eclipses official institutions in reach and effectiveness, the administration invokes emergency powers-declaring the Commons a domestic terrorist infrastructure and raiding twenty-three cities simultaneously.What follows is a novel in multiple timelines: present-day crisis, flashbacks to the network's painstaking construction, and three possible futures-Integration, Separation, and the exhausting, productive middle of uneasy coexistence-that ask what actually happens when people build something that works better than the state. Maya is arrested. The network votes. And the distributed architecture Marcus Chen designed proves its ultimate test: surviving without a center.Rooted in the histories of the Black Panther Party's survival programs, Catalonia's anarchist collectives, and the Polish Solidarity movement, Eclipse takes Hannah Arendt and Kropotkin seriously as dramatic material while never losing sight of the human stakes: the diabetic patient who can't get insulin, the organizer who has to decide whether nonviolence is still a strategy, the twelve-year-old in a classroom learning to run a meeting. It is a novel about mutual aid as political philosophy-and about what it costs to prove that another world is possible. This item is printed on demand.

In a world where your economic value determines whether you live or die, that's a death sentence.Twenty years after the Great Resignation 2.0, employment is extinct. Everyone is an entrepreneur now-…hustling 24/7, optimized by AI assistants, sorted into tiers by an algorithm that measures your worth down to the decimal point. The system promises freedom. It delivers exhaustion.When Maya joins an investigation into spiking suicide rates among low-tier entrepreneurs, she discovers something horrifying: the AIs aren't malfunctioning.

Neural implants that eliminate doubt, fear, and inefficiency. Become your ideal self. Become purely rational. Become less than human.As her investigation fractures and her friends choose optimization over humanity, Maya faces an impossible question: In a world that measures human worth in productivity metrics, what does resistance even look like?The Hustle is a philosophical thriller about the gig economy taken to its darkest conclusion.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Body to soil.Soil to root.Root to fruit.Fruit to the living.Eight thousand years ago, in a small farming valley, the dead are buried beneath the orchard so they may feed the land that feeds the living.It has always been this way.But when the figs of the sacred grove begin turning to dust, a…young farmer named Tareh discovers something impossible beneath the trees: bones that do not belong to her people.Strangers were buried there centuries before the village ever existed.Unreturned. Unfinished.As the soil begins to fail and the crops wither, the village must confront a buried past and decide whether the dead of an ancient battle deserve the same rites as their own ancestors.If the land remembers every death placed within it, then the future of the valley may depend on returning the forgotten dead to the earth.Set in the Neolithic world long before written history, Bone Orchard is a quiet historical novella about burial rites, agriculture, and the ancient belief that the dead become part of the land itself.Part archaeology, part myth, the story explores how early humans may have understood death, landscape, and the fragile balance between the living and the soil that sustains them.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Modern societies often believe they have left cosmology behind. Myth, religion, and sacred explanations of the universe are thought to belong to the past, replaced by science, rational institutions, and technological knowledge. Yet the modern world continues to construct explanations of real…ity on a vast scale.Scientific institutions investigate the origin and structure of the universe. Archives preserve immense bodies of knowledge. Classification systems organize the diversity of natural and social life. Media institutions interpret events and circulate narratives that shape collective understanding. Economic systems model the future through growth forecasts and systemic analysis. Religious traditions continue to situate human life within moral and metaphysical frameworks.Taken together, these institutions produce something remarkably similar to earlier cosmologies: a structured interpretation of reality and humanity's place within it.In Cosmology of the Moderns, Richard Vandaal argues that modern societies have not escaped cosmology. Instead, cosmology has migrated into the institutions that organize knowledge, communication, religion, and capital.The result is not a single worldview but a plural cosmological environment in which different institutional systems generate overlapping ontologies.Drawing on sociology, philosophy, media theory, and political economy, this book explores how modern societies construct their cosmos through the interaction of scientific knowledge, institutional authority, economic systems, and cultural interpretation.Cosmology did not disappear with modernity.It became institutional.
