Book Description
“As current as today’s headlines and as disturbing as your darkest nightmare . . . Riveting, provocative, and enthralling.” —James Rollins, #1 New York Times–bestselling author A murdered psychologist with ties to a secret CIA-funded remote viewing project . . . A haunted young Iraq War vet with a “psycho” discharge and a talent that has marked her for death . . . A deadly secret that will rock the world. You can’t hide the truth from those who can see. When the charred remains of Tulane professor Henry Youngblood are discovered in the burned-out ruins of his New Orleans offices, the CIA sends maverick troubleshooter Jax Alexander to investigate.

Pursued by agents of an influential oil and defense conglomerate with ties to the President himself, Jax and Tobie soon find themselves in a breakneck race against time to stop a ruthless killer and avert a diabolical plot that could devastate America. “An engaging premise, smart and exhilarating. An electrifying ride that rings with authenticity. No question, this is an auspicious beginning for C. S. Graham.” —Steve Berry, New York Times–bestselling author “[A] rollicking suspense novel. . . Conspiracy fans will love this impressive series opener.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review) “The pace of the plot in this book is blistering . . . It’ll keep you turning pages.” —The Advocate

Book Description
In the year 2432, humans think they are alone in the universe. They’re wrong. Commander Noa Sato plans a peaceful leave on her home planet Luddeccea ... but winds up interrogated and imprisoned for her involvement in the Archangel Project. A project she knows nothing about. Professor James Sinclair wakes in the snow, not remembering the past twenty four hours, or knowing why he is being pursued. The only thing he knows is that he has to find Commander Sato, a woman he’s never met. A military officer from the colonies and a civilian from Old Earth, they couldn’t have less in common. But they have to work together to save the lives of millions—and their own. Every step of the way they are haunted by the final words of a secret transmission: The archangel is down. Editorial Reviews: "ARCHANGEL DOWN is a compelling sci-fi complete with satisfyingly high-tech gadgetry and high stakes political and social intrigue ... subtle humor pervades the book, often in the form of Noa and James's banter, and the vivid action sequences provide suspense and adventure. " -IndieReader "This is a terrific science fiction selection that explores our human emotion. Anger, fear, self-doubt, love, and humor are on display as the colonists of a new world are forced to realize they are not alone in the universe." -Great Digital Books, "7 Great Books for Star Trek Fans" Keywords: free science fiction, free space opera, free sci-fi, free first contact, free alien invasion, free aliens, free galactic republic, free artificial intelligence, free space colonization, free galactic republic, free space fleet, free galactic republic, science fiction, space opera, sci-fi, first contact, alien invasion, artificial intelligence, AI, space colonization, galactic republic, space marines, speculative fiction, romance, slow burn, fade to black, humor, aliens, robots, fun, First Contact, Space Fleet, Metaphysical & Visionary, Adventure, Mutants, Mystery, Invasion, Contact, Fleet, Extraterrestrial, Action, augmented humans, cyborgs, cybernetics, dystopian, space fleet

The Man Who Plants Trees
Author: Jim Robbins
Publisher: Profile Books
ISBN: 1847659039
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 234
Book Description
This is an extraordinary book about trees. It's an account by a veteran science journalist that ranges to the limits of scientific understanding: how trees produce aerosols for protection and 'warnings'; the curative effects of 'forest bathing' in Japan; or the impact of trees in fertilizing ocean plankton. There is even science to show that trees are connected to the stars. Trees and forests are far more than just plants: they have myriad functions that help maintain the atmosphere and biosphere. As climate change increases, they will become even more critical to buffer the effects of warmer temperatures, clean our water and air and provide food. If they remain standing. The global forest is also in crisis, and when the oldest trees in the world suddenly start dying - across North America, Europe, the Amazon - it's time to pay attention. At the heart of this remarkable exploration of the power of trees is the amazing story of one man, a shade tree farmer named David Milarch, and his quest to clone the oldest and largest trees - from the California redwoods to the oaks of Ireland - to protect the ancient genetics and use them to reforest the planet.

Book Description
JFK is in the Oval Office. "Love Me Do" is climbing the charts. And in West Berlin, a wealthy ex-black marketeer, the Dane, is offering a stolen spy satellite for sale. Nothing unusual there, except the asking price: half a billion dollars. Too much for any satellite—unless it's Hitler's legendary, long-lost Project Archangel. Archangel, it's rumored, is a device capable of shifting the balance of the Cold War. To find it, Mallory and Morse fly to the Monaco Grand Prix and infiltrate the Dane's entourage: a pair of lovely and vicious blonde twins, a ravishing Polish giantess with a taste for movie magazines, and an American ex-mercenary with quiet eyes and hands like stone. The Dane is both a perfect host and a savage killer, and has already done one of the Consultancy's agents to death. But their greatest peril may come from the long-buried passions of the icily beautiful Laura Morse. . . .
