This Is Not Civilization
Author: Robert Rosenberg
Publisher: Houghton Mifflin Harcourt
ISBN: 0618562060
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 309
Book Description
In the tradition of Prague and White Teeth, This Is Not Civilization is an inspired, sweeping debut novel that hopscotches from Arizona to Central Asia to Istanbul with a well-meaning, if misguided, young Peace Corps volunteer. Jeff Hartig lies at the center of this modern take on the American-abroad tale, which brings together four people from vastly different backgrounds, each struggling with the push and pull of home. A young Apache, Adam Dale, forsakes the reservation for the promise of a world he knows little about. Anarbek Tashtanaliev, of post-Soviet Kyrgyzstan, operates a cheese factory that no longer produces cheese. Nazira, his daughter, strains against the confines of their village's age-old traditions. With captivating insight, realism, and humor, Robert Rosenberg delivers a sensitive story about the cost of trying to do good in the world.

Pages : 738
Book Description
Features 9 colour illustrations from the Iron series: Mobile Command Station (MCS) Mark 6 SU 401 Fighter X.77 Laser Pistol Ischian Clover Leaf Laser Rifle Ischian Light Cruiser Battleship John F. Kennedy Ischian Battleship Lu-kshîa LC5150 "Bullpup" Laser Carbine Please note: these images may not display correctly on all devices. Links to online images, most high resolution, are provided. Don't miss the opportunity to download Running, prequel to the Iron series, FREE on Google Play. Book 1: Too Bright the Sun A man hell-bent on revenge for the death of his friend, in battle! Seeking revenge for the death of a friend ten long years ago, Major Jake Nanden has pursued his own personal demons with an almost religious fervour through life and through battle. He is a soldier so highly decorated for bravery that his fame reaches far beyond the desolate Jupiter moon, Io, where his battalion is stationed. His victories in the Jupiter Wars are hollow though, for he is a man scared of his own soul. His life seems to be a trap from which he cannot escape. His is the Replicant Company, and replicants, or clones, are despised by all. Book 2: Unknown Place, Unknown Universe Three rookie space cadets crash on an unknown planet with aliens hot on their tail! While a dissident alien scientist struggles to control time, he discovers that his wife will betray him. His favourite student discovers a way to see into the past but find himself surrounded by enemies in a complex, fragmenting culture. Meanwhile, Stone, douchebag son of Iron Cross winner Jake Nanden, a nerd and a feminist from the Space Fleet Academy crash-land on an unknown planet after falling through a worm-hole in this gripping and visionary science fiction thriller. Called Anubians by humans, the jackal-headed aliens are now revealed as Ischians but they are hiding something on this unknown planet in an unknown universe. Stone's world is shattered while he tries to escape and warn Earth of danger. Book 3: Worlds Like Dust Domes now cover Earth's big cities and soon a force field will trap Earth inside! The jackal-headed Ischians are here! When General Jake Nanden retired from the USAC, he could never have guessed that his greatest battle was still to come. Since then, he has joined a spiritual cult called the Blue Path, trying to establish communication with a few peaceful Ischians. But now his world has been torn apart; his wife and youngest son have been killed, probably his eldest too and the Los Angeles and Washington citizens sweat it out under inescapable alien domes. His son, Stone, warned him of the invasion and he joined up with Gary Enquine to form a rudimentary resistance network. Now, they must find a way to rise up and defeat the conquerors of Earth! Nanden must escape and unite the remaining human and clone forces, scattered across the Solar System. Likened to a cross between Blade Runner and Paths of Glory, you simply must read this beautifully constructed, intensely dark and powerful Science Fiction thriller Series, if you love Phillip K. Dick and Isaac Asimov. Character interview with Jake Nanden. Name (s): Jake Nanden Age: 34 Please tell us a little about yourself. I am 5'11', dark hair, short - Army cut, slightly curly. Green eyes. Describe your appearance in 10 words or less. Getting middle aged, slightly paunchy with drying skin - like paper in places - except my mech arm. That's synthetic skin on there and as smooth and supple as the day it was sprayed on. I even had mine tattooed but don't tell anyone. Would you kill for those you love? I kill every day - most days - to keep my culture intact. I would say that is killing for those I love. Of course there is a moral code... And as a soldier the moral code is almost everything. After a while... killing... it sometimes seems to be the only thing you have left. Family are too far away.

Category : Fiction

Pages : 244
Book Description
The millions who live there call it Civilization. It's both a nation and a megastructure where they live peaceful and productive lives. Where The Lord Protector watches over them. Where they are free from vices like lust, gluttony, and family. Eric XXII is a model citizen. So he's shocked when, one day, he's kidnapped by a secret society and shown that his world is not all as it seems—and that he has powers beyond those of a normal human. As he tries to sort out the truths from the lies, he's thrust into a war of survival between this tiny sect of superhuman, true-believers and the unlimited juggernaut of Civilization itself. If that weren't enough, Eric discovers romantic feelings for the first time. For Bria. She's brilliant. She's irresistible. And she's taken... by the deadliest insurgent of all. Insurgents of Civilization was the first novel written by author Richard L. Sanders (The Phoenix Conspiracy) and it and its sequel, Insurgents of Wasteland, were completed in 2004, when the author was only 17 years old.
