But when his employer's mines are threatened by a vicious alien machine, Yorick is shipped back home to hunt it. All he wants is to do his job and get out. Instead, Yorick is pulled into a revolution brewing beneath Ymir's frozen surface, led by the very last person he wanted to see again—the brother who sent him off in pieces twenty years ago..

Book SynopsisAmerica today is teetering on the edge of the alarming vision presented in LeVar Burton's debut novel, written more than two decades ago . . .In 2012, the first African American president is assassinated by a white extremist-just four days after he is elected. The horrific tragedy leads to riots, financial collapse, and ultimately, a full-on civil war. In its aftermath, millions are left homeless as famine and disease spread throughout the country.But from Chicago, a mysterious voice cries out . . .To Leon Crane, a former NASA scientist now struggling to survive on the streets, the pleas he hears remind him of the wife he could not save-and offer him a chance at redemption.To Jacob Fire Cloud, a revered Lakota medicine man, the voice is a sign that the White Buffalo Woman has returned to unite all the races in peace and prosperity.And to little Amy Ladue, the cries are those of her mother, who disappeared during the devastating St. Louis earthquake-and who must still be alive.These three strangers will be drawn together to rescue someone they have never met, a woman who holds the key to a new future for humanity-one remarkably brimming with hope."LeVar Burton brings a strong new voice to science fiction with this powerful, even disturbing, novel." -Ben Bova, New York Times-bestselling author"An amazingly good first novel." -Rocky Mountain News"I highly recommend this book!" -Whoopi Goldberg

WW Norton & Co 36 Righteous Men
Book SynopsisNew York homicide detectives pursue a serial killer in this apocalyptic thriller.Trade Review"Pressfield keeps the revelations coming at an apocalyptic pace in this page-turner, where the planet’s fate comes to hang by the thread of a single human life." -- Tom Nolan - Wall Street Journal"36 Righteous Men hits my favorite reading pleasures—history, mystery, and theology—all wrapped up in a page-turning thriller. I couldn’t put it down" -- Randall Wallace, Oscar-nominated screenwriter of Braveheart"Steven Pressfield writes as enchantingly of the hard-boiled mean streets of the future as he has of those same byways of the sword-and-sandals past." -- David Mamet"36 Righteous Men is a stunning futuristic noir thriller that mines the core of Jewish mysticism in search of the future of human survival. Its daring narrative held me in its grip from the start to the shocking end." -- Robert Faggen, professor of literature, Claremont McKenna College"Every scene in 36 Righteous Men unfolds with cinematic intensity. Pressfield’s imagination is fierce and disciplined as well as wildly creative, and those qualities serve him well in this strikingly inventive novel." -- Rosanne Cash, singer-songwriter and author of Composed: A Memoir"Like Tom Clancy, Pressfield … writes fast-paced, stripped-down prose that is regularly interrupted by lovingly technical descriptions of computers, cars, and weaponry." -- Adam Kirsch - Tablet Magazine"[U]nputdownable…. While many narrative elements are noteworthy—the character depth, the powerful political and social commentary, the nonstop action, the breakneck pacing—it’s the author’s meticulously described and alarming realistic near-future earth that will chill readers to their core." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review)"[A]n absorbing take on good vs. evil, and disasters pulled from today’s headlines lend unsettling realism to the supernatural-tinged apocalyptic setting." -- Booklist

Watkins Media Limited New People of the Flat Earth
Book SynopsisAfter ten years in a Zen monastery, Proteus knows it's time to leave. A troubled, solitary man, he knows what he seeks is not to be found sitting in meditation. His problem is that, during his time at the monastery, he's discovered something strange inside his mind: the ability to connect with a mysterious, silent, metallic spherical object he calls Mosquito. His connection to this possibly extraterrestrial object, which seems to dwell on an existential plane of its own, gives Proteus a flimsy sense of purpose. So when Mosquito abruptly disappears one day, Proteus can't bear the loss, and he sets off in pursuit of answers. Thus starts a surreal, philosophically maddening quest for meaning. Chasing the elusive Mosquito leads Proteus to in-between worlds where things do not quite hold together, and where the living and the dead must learn to live in and out of the boundaries of time. The further he gets from sanity, the closer he comes to something that may turn out to be wisdom. Playful but unapologetically challenging, New People of the Flat Earth is a breathtakingly original novel that defies categorisation or summary.
