In einer weit entfernten Zukunft gelten die Gesetze von Raum und Zeit nicht mehr, und auf der Erde haben sich Geschöpfe angesiedelt, die uns Menschen nur auf den ersten Blick ähnlich sehen. Lobey ist einer von ihnen: Selbst ein begnadeter Musiker, kann er die Musik im Geist der anderen hören. Als er die eigenwillige, anscheinend taubstumme Friza kennenlernt, glaubt er eine Seelenverwandte gefunden zu haben. Doch dann wird Friza getötet, und Lobey zieht aus, um sie zu rächen - und vielleicht gar aus dem Reich der Toten zurückzuholen. Der zweite Band der Werkausgabe dieses...

The American Shore: Meditations on a Tale of Science Fiction by Thomas M. Disch--Angouleme
ISBN: 9780819567185 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The American Shore: Meditations on a Tale of Science Fiction by Thomas M. Disch--"Angouleme" was first published in 1978 to the intense interest of science fiction readers and the growing community of SF scholars. Recalling Nabokov's commentary on Pushkin's Eugene Onegin, Roland Barthes' commentary on Balzac's Sarazine, and Grabinier's reading of The Heart of Hamlet, this book-length essay helped prove the genre worthy of serious investigation. The American Shore is the third in a series of influential critical works by Samuel R. Delany, beginning with The Jewel-Hinged Jaw and Starboard Wine,...

Starboard Wine: More Notes on the Language of Science Fiction
ISBN: 9780819568847 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In Starboard Wine, Samuel R. Delany explores the implications of his now-famous assertion that science fiction is not about the future. Rather, it uses the future as a means of talking about the present and its potentiality. By recognizing a text's specific "difference," we begin to see the quality of its particulars. Through riveting analyses of works by Joanna Russ, Robert Heinlein, Theodore Sturgeon, and Thomas M. Disch, Delany reveals critical strategies for reading that move beyond overwrought theorizing and formulaic thinking. Throughout, the author performs the kinds of careful inquiry...

Tales of Nevèrÿon
ISBN: 9780819562708 / Angielski / Miękka / 1993 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In his four-volume series Return to Neverÿon, Hugo and Nebula award-winner Samuel R.

The eleven stories, novellas, and novels in Return to Neverÿon's four volumes chronicle a long-ago land on civilization's brink, perhaps in Asia or Africa, or even on the Mediterranean. Taken slave in childhood, Gorgik gains his freedom,...

Nova
ISBN: 9780375706707 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Given that the suns of Draco stretch almost sixteen light years from end to end, it stands to reason that the cost of transportation is the most important factor of the 32nd century. And since Illyrion is the element most needed for space travel, Lorq von Ray is plenty willing to fly through the core of a recently imploded sun in order to obtain seven tons of it. The potential for profit is so great that Lorq has little difficulty cobbling together an alluring crew that includes a gypsy musician and a moon-obsessed scholar interested in the ancient art of writing a novel. What the crew...

Times Square Red, Times Square Blue
ISBN: 9780814719206 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 203 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. If one street in America can claim to be the most infamous, it is surely 42nd Street. Between Seventh and Eighth Avenues, 42nd Street was once known for its peep shows, street corner hustlers and movie houses. Over the last two decades the notion of safety-from safe sex and safe neighborhoods, to safe cities and safe relationships-has overcome 42nd Street, giving rise to a Disney store, a children's theater, and large, neon-lit cafes. 42nd Street has, in effect, become a family tourist attraction for visitors from Berlin, Tokyo, Westchester, and New Jersey's suburbs. Samuel R. Delany... If one street in America can claim to be the most infamous, it is surely 42nd Street. Between Seventh and Eighth Avenues, 42nd Street was once know... |

The green of beetles wings ... the red of polished carbuncle ... a web of silver fire. Lightning tore his eyes apart, struck deep inside his body; and he felt his bones split. Before it became pain, it was gone. And he was falling through blue smoke. The smoke was inside him, cool as blown ice. It was getting darker.
He had heard something before, a ... voice: the Lord of the Flames.... Captives of the Flame is the first novel in the Fall of the Towers trilogy.
