About the book
**Los Angeles Times Book Prize Finalist**
"[D]extrously blends genres in this suspenseful sci-fi mystery.... Rob Hart and Blake Crouch fans should check this out." — Publishers Weekly
"Lovers of sharp, fast sci-fi from the likes of Neal Stephenson will be right at home with Esperance." —BookPage (starred)
A whip-smart thriller in the vein of Blake Crouch, Andy Weir, and Neal Stephenson, Esperance plumbs the depths of a seemingly impossible crime rooted in racism, intergenerational trauma, and an inhuman concept of justice
Detective Ethan Krol is on the twentieth floor of a Chicago apartment building. A father and son have been found dead, their lungs full of sea water—hundreds of miles away from the ocean.
Abidemi Eniola has arrived in Bristol, England. She claims to be Nigerian, but her accent is wrong and she can do remarkable things with technology, things that her new friend, Hollie Rogers, has never seen before. Abi is in possession of a number of heirlooms that need to be returned to their rightful owners, and Hollie is more than happy to go along for the ride.
But neither Abidemi Eniola nor her heirlooms are quite what they seem. Abi is a target of Ethan Krol’s investigations, and Hollie’s life is about to become far stranger than she bargained for. In a clash of cultures, histories, and different ideas about justice, the consequences will be deadly…

About the book
August 1942: Hitler’s 6th Army advanced across the Russian steppe, convinced Stalingrad would fall in weeks. The Luftwaffe had already reduced the city to rubble. German soldiers dreamed of victory and Christmas at home. Instead, they found themselves trapped in one of the deadliest battles in human history.
For five brutal months, Soviet defenders and civilians fought block by block, refusing to yield even as nearly two million lives were lost. By the end, the 6th Army was annihilated—its destruction marking the turning point of World War II.
Drawing on five years of research, survivor interviews, and international archives, William Craig’s Enemy at the Gates is the definitive account of Stalingrad: a story of hubris, endurance, and the battle that broke Hitler’s war machine.

Shelby Richmond was an ordinary Long Island teenager until one tragic night rewrote her life. Her best friend’s future was destroyed in a single accident, while Shelby survived—left with guilt, grief, and a heart she no longer recognizes.
As she stumbles through the aftermath, Shelby pulls away from love, from her family, from any sense of hope. Chinese takeout, stray dogs, and the wrong men become her companions in place of a future she can’t yet imagine. But New York City brings unexpected connections: a circle of lost souls, a chance at healing, and the presence of an angel who’s been with her since that icy night.
In Faithful, Alice Hoffman spins beauty from sorrow in a moving story of survival, love, and the long road back to yourself.

About the book
Darkness and death have come to Torch Falls. This is the last hour.
Horror novelist Jared Cole wakes from a coma with a terrifying curse: he can see souls—and experience the darkness growing inside them. The visions can be devastating and strike without warning.
Returning to his hometown to salvage his career, he’s triggered by an accident that opens a supernatural link with Kit, a cloudy-eyed boy whose seizures reveal horrifying prophecies. It’s a gateway between their souls—a dark door that should have stayed sealed.
A parasitic shadow emerges from the breach, infecting minds with thoughts of murder and self-destruction. Now, this sleepy Montana town is eating itself alive. The streets run red with blood from grisly acts of violence that Kit predicts with haunting precision—each vision tearing at the bond that’s made him and Jared reluctant brothers in terror.
With each incident, Jared grows weaker and more monstrous as the entity drains his life force. He realizes the creature is hunting Kit—and severing their connection may be the only way to stop the carnage. But as the town tears itself apart and he loses more of his humanity with each passing hour, he faces an impossible choice …
He has no idea how to slam this hell-gate shut—and closing it might destroy the only person who understands his curse.

Mockingbird
Dystopian · Post-Apocalyptic
Our take
In a dying future where reading is forbidden and human life has thinned to a numb, drifting existence, one machine longs for death while two fragile people awaken to desire and possibility. Mockingbird fits dystopian sci-fi readers who want emotional desolation, philosophical tension, and a story about what survives when culture, curiosity, and human connection begin to disappear.
Choose your retailer
About the book
This sci-fi masterpiece is "a moral tale that has elements of Aldous Huxley's Brave New World, Superman, and Star Wars" (Los Angeles Times Book Review).
In a world where the human population has suffered devastating losses, a handful of survivors cling to what passes for life in a post-apocalyptic, dying landscape. People wander, drugged and lulled by electronic bliss, through a barren landscape with no children, no art, and where reading is forbidden. From this bleak existence, a tragic love triangle springs forth. Spofforth, the most perfect machine ever created, runs the world, but his only wish is to die. Paul and Mary Lou are a man and a woman whose passion for each other sparks a jealousy in Spofforth—and provides the only hope for the future of human beings on Earth.
Walter Tevis, author of The Hustler, The Man Who Fell to Earth, and The Color of Money, delivers an elegiac dystopia of mankind coming to terms with its own imminent extinction.
"Because of its affirmation of such persistent human values as curiosity, courage, compassion, along with its undeniable narrative power, Mockingbird will become one of those books that coming generations will periodically rediscover with wonder and delight." —The Washington Post
