Goldilocks - Úton egy új világ felé


Az ?egyáltalán nem is olyan távoli jövőben az emberi tevékenység következtében a Föld nevű bolygó gyakorlatilag lakhatatlanná válik. Szökőár, tűzvész, mérgezően szennyezett levegő, állat- és növényfajok tömeges pusztulása, kizsigerelt termőföld – a mindennapi élet díszletei. Emellett az emberiség felét más jellegű katasztrófák is sújtják: a nők jogait drámaian megnyirbálják, nincs beleszólásuk a közügyekbe, nem vállalhatnak vezető pozíciót, egyszerű reprodukciós automataként kezelik őket a férfiak irányította világban. Vajon ki hallgatna ilyen körülmények között az egykor sikeres üzletasszonyra, vállalkozó szellemű tudósra, aki képes lenne megoldást találni az emberiség legégetőbb problémájára? Vajon hagynák, hogy az általa toborzott, kizárólag nőkből álló profi legénység űrhajóra szálljon, és a lakhatósági Goldilocks-zónában új otthont teremtsen a Földet elherdáló népességnek? És vajon a tiltás elég ahhoz, hogy elnyomják a nők hangját egy minden szempontból beteg világban? A Goldilocks – Úton egy új világ felé egy hajmeresztő űrutazás története, lebilincselően izgalmas feminista sci-fi, amely olyan felkavaró és fordulatos, akár a bukfencezés a nullgravitációs térben.

Seven Devils


After Eris faked her death, she thought she had left her old life as Princess Discordia - heir to the galaxy's most ruthless empire - behind. But joining the Novantaen Resistance, an organisation opposed to the Empire's voracious expansion, throws her right back into the fray. Resistance fighter pilot Clo has been given a mission: infiltrate an Empire spaceship ferrying deadly cargo to gain vital intelligence. A task made all the more difficult when she's forced to partner with an old enemy - Princess Discordia herself, Eris. They discover more than they bargained for on the ship: fugitives with first-hand knowledge of the Empire's inner workings. With this information, these women might just bring the Empire to its knees. But the clock is ticking: Eris's brother Damocles, new heir to the throne, plans to disrupt a peace summit with the only remaining free alien people, ensuring the Empire's total domination. Unless this band of unlikely rebels stops him, millions will die . .

And the Seven Devils? Biggest score of them all. The Devils take refuge on Fortuna where Ariadne gets a message with unimaginable consequences: the Oracle has gone rogue. The AI has developed a way of mass programming citizens into mindless drones. The Oracle's demand is simple: it wants its daughter Ariadne back at any cost. Time for an Impossible to Infiltrate mission: high chance of death, low chance of success. The Devils will have to use their unique skills, no matter the sacrifice, even if that means teaming up with old enemies. Their plan? Get to the heart of the Empire. Destroy the Oracle. Burn it all to the ground.
