La guerre totale opposant des créatures surpuissantes entre dans sa phase finale, balayant planètes et soleils comme fétus de paille. Les robots klikiss ont longtemps prétendu être les amis de l'humanité, pour mieux implanter un cheval de Troie. Leur plan laisse la Ligue Hanséatique terrienne sans défense et menace toute vie humaine dans notre Galaxie.

Os Anjos do Tempo é uma história de ficção científica escrita pelo mestre do gênero steampunk Kevin J. Anderson, inspirada nas músicas da lendária banda de rock Rush, em parceria com o compositor e baterista Neil Peart. Uma fábula "nostálgica, estranha e encantadora", ilustrada pelo premiado designer Hugh Syme, sobre a beleza que há na luta entre a ordem e o caos, entre a realidade e o sonho.

In the Unnatural Quarter, golems slave away in sweatshops, necromancers sell black-market trinkets to tourists, and the dead rise up—to work the night shift. But zombie detective Dan Shamble is no ordinary working stiff. When a local senator and his goons picket a ghostly production of Shakespeare in the Dark—condemning the troupe’s “unnatural” lifestyles—Dan smells something rotten. And if something smells rotten to a zombie, you’re in serious trouble….

Dan Shamble, zombie PI, is on the case, trying to stop an all-out gang war between full-time and full-moon werewolves. As he combs through the tangled clues to hunt down the bald facts, things get hairy fast. Shamble lurches through a loony landscape of voodoo tattoo artists, illicit cockatrice fights, body builders assembling make-your-own human kits, and perhaps scariest of all, crazed fans in town for the Worldwide Horror Convention. Yet the reign of hair-raising terror grows longer. If Shamble can't snip this off at the roots, the whole world could end up howling mad.

Even being murdered doesn’t keep a good detective down, and in the Unnatural Quarter—inhabited by ghosts, vampires, werewolves, mummies, and all sorts of creatures that go bump (or thud!) in the night—a zombie PI fits right in. Dan Chambeaux, aka “Shamble,” solves a string of madcap cases with his ghost girlfriend Sheyenne, his Best Human Friend Officer Toby McGoohan, and his firebrand lawyer partner Robin Deyer.

When Howard Phillips Publishing announces the 12 + 1 anniversary edition (due to unavoidable production delays) of the famed Necronomicon—the very book that caused the Big Uneasy in the first place—it takes zombie P.I. Dan Chambeaux, a.k.a. “Shamble,” to root out the diabolical schemes surrounding the book, and the fanatics who wish to destroy it.

The 14 dad authors of Tales from Fatherhood have a combined 874 years of fatherhood experience! This collection of stories of triumph over the seen and unseen challenges of fatherhood is sure to inspire, motivate, and challenge many of the “conventions” about the blessed assignment of fatherhood. You will hear stories from fathers who had to create their own blueprint for raising and loving their children, some who grew up in loving homes with their own fathers as that blueprint, and those who would mark their relationship status with their dad as “it’s complicated”.

Alla fine dell'ultimo romanzo di Frank Herbert, "La rifondazione di Dune", una nave che trasporta un equipaggio di rifugiati s'inoltra in una galassia inesplorata, in fuga da un terrificante e misterioso Nemico. I fuggitivi hanno usato la tecnologia genetica per far rivivere le figure chiave del passato di Dune - tra cui Paul Muad'Dib e Lady Jessica - usando poi i loro talenti speciali per affrontare le sfide che li aspettano.

Die atemberaubende Reise in die Vergangenheit des Wüstenplaneten geht weiter! Vor Jahren hat Lady Jessica, die Geliebte von Herzog Leto Atreides und Mutter Pauls, eine Entscheidung getroffen, die schon bald das Gefüge des gewaltigen Sternenreichs erschüttern wird. Doch zunächst muss sie ihre neue Heimatwelt Caladan verlassen, denn die Schwesternschaft der Bene Gesserit hat sie in ihr Hauptquartier zitiert.

Ideato dal genio creativo di Frank P. Herbert, "I cacciatori di Dune" è l'odissea dell'astronave di Duncan che dovrà eludere le diaboliche trappole disposte da un feroce e sconosciuto nemico. Per rafforzare le sue difese, l'equipaggio dovrà ricorrere all'uso della tecnologia genetica di Scytale, l'ultimo Maestro di Tleilaxu, per far tornare in vita personaggi chiave del passato di Dune, tra cui Paul Muad'Dib e la sua amata Chani, Lady Jessica, Stilgar, Thufir Hawat e persino il dottor Wellington Yueh. Fallire non è previsto.

It's all-out war between the players and characters in a role-playing game that has taken on a life of its own. The fighter Delrael, the sorcerer Bryl, as well as famed scientists Verne and Frankenstein, use every trick in the Book of Rules to keep the world of Hexworld intact while the outside group of players does everything possible to destroy it. The end is here. Or will it be a new beginning?

Over the past two years, a group of four players had given so much to their role-playing world that it had developed a magic of its own. The creatures, warriors, sorcerers, thieves—all came alive. Now, there is an odd connection between the gamers and their characters, splitting into factions to determine the fate of the Game itself, and both the inside and the outside worlds. One thing is for certain. Hexworld will never be the same.
