We are not alone. On Ganymede, breadbasket of the outer planets, a Martian marine watches as her platoon is slaughtered by a monstrous supersoldier. On Earth, a high-level politician struggles to prevent interplanetary war from reigniting. And on Venus, an alien protomolecule has overrun the planet, wreaking massive, mysterious changes and threatening to spread out into the solar system. In the vast wilderness of space, James Holden and the crew of the Rocinante have been keeping the peace for the Outer Planets Alliance. When they agree to help a scientist search war-torn Ganymede for a missing child, the future of humanity rests on whether a single ship can prevent an alien invasion that may have already begun . . . Caliban's War is a breakneck science fiction adventure following the critically acclaimed Leviathan Wakes.

The book is the basis for the first season of The Expanse, a new original series premiering on Syfy in December 2015. Leviathan Wakes is James S. A. Corey's first novel in the epic series the Expanse, a modern masterwork of science fiction where humanity has colonized the solar system. Two hundred years after migrating into space, mankind is in turmoil. When a reluctant ship's captain and washed-up detective find themselves involved in the case of a missing girl, what they discover brings our solar system to the brink of civil war, and exposes the greatest conspiracy in human history.

In the fourth installment of the bestselling Expanse series, the crew of the Rocinante faces a new frontier as the rush to colonize new planets spirals into chaos and potential conflict. The gates to a thousand worlds have opened, and settlers eager for new beginnings flood out from humanity's home planets. However, the first human colony on this frontier, Ilus, is born amidst violence and turmoil. Independent settlers clash with a powerful corporate colony ship, relying solely on their determination and skills honed during past wars. As innocent scientists are killed while surveying this alien world, the struggle on Ilus threatens to reverberate back to Earth. James Holden and his crew are dispatched to restore peace amid the chaos, but Holden suspects their mission is destined to fail. He is haunted by the memory of a dead man, reminding him of the once-great galactic civilization that existed on this land and the mysterious forces that led to its demise. The narrative explores themes of survival, conflict, and the dark legacy of colonization as the characters navigate a treacherous landscape filled with uncertainty and danger.

Abaddon's Gate is the third book in the New York Times bestselling Expanse series. For generations, the solar system - Mars, the Moon, the Asteroid Belt - was humanity's great frontier. Until now. The alien artefact working through its program under the clouds of Venus has emerged to build a massive structure outside the orbit of Uranus: a gate that leads into a starless dark. Jim Holden and the crew of the Rocinante are part of a vast flotilla of scientific and military ships going out to examine the artefact. But behind the scenes, a complex plot is unfolding, with the destruction of Holden at its core. As the emissaries of the human race try to find whether the gate is an opportunity or a threat, the greatest danger is the one they brought with them.

Kidnappers have snatched the teenage son of super-star golfer Linda Coldren and her husband, Jack, an aging pro, at the height of the U.S. Open. To help get the boy back, sports agent Myron Bolitar goes charging after clues and suspects from the Main Line mansions to a downtown cheaters' motel--and back in time to a U.S. Open twenty-three years ago, when Jack Coldren should have won, but didn't. Suddenly Myron finds him self surrounded by blue bloods, criminals, and liars. And as one family's darkest secrets explode into murder, Myron finds out just how rough this game can get. In novels that crackle with wit and suspense, Edgar Award winner Harlan Coben has created one of the most fascinating and complex heroes in suspense fiction--Myron Bolitar--a hotheaded, tenderhearted sports agent who grows more and more engaging and unpredictable with each page-turning appearance.

Un popolo misterioso costruisce nel villaggio primitivo dei Manth una torre fatta di tronchi e canne (il "Cantore"); il vento che si incanala nelle canne fa uscire una musica celestiale che incanta l'intero villaggio e quel villaggio diventerà, secoli dopo, la città di Aramanth. Qui l'appartenenza dei singoli cittadini e delle famiglie ai ranghi sociali dipende dai punteggi assegnati loro in una serie infinita di esami che iniziano fin dalla prima infanzia; in base al punteggio avvengono brutali trasferimenti nei quartieri inferiori e ambite promozioni in quelli più ricchi ed eleganti. Solo la famiglia Hath contesta questa opprimente forma di "democrazia".

Kim Lord is an avant-garde figure, feminist icon, and agent provocateur in the L.A. art scene. Her groundbreaking new exhibition Still Lives is comprised of self-portraits depicting herself as famous, murdered women--the Black Dahlia, Chandra Levy, Nicole Brown Simpson, among many others--and the works are as compelling as they are disturbing, implicating a culture that is too accustomed to violence against women. As the city's richest art patrons pour into the Rocque Museum's opening night, all the staff, including editor Maggie Richter, hope the event will be enough to save the historic institution's flailing finances. Except Kim Lord never shows up to her own gala. Fear mounts as the hours and days drag on and Lord remains missing.
