A mission of discovery. A catastrophic miscalculation. A journey with no way back.
Fifty crew members aboard the Leonora Christine set out for a distant planet, fully prepared for the effects of time dilation—aging just five years while decades pass on Earth. But when their ship is damaged in an uncharted nebula, their controlled acceleration spirals out of control. Unable to decelerate, they hurtle ever closer to the speed of light.
As time passes faster and faster outside the ship, their journey stretches beyond anything they imagined. With their destination lost and no way to stop, they must confront an unthinkable fate.
A Hugo Award finalist and a landmark in hard science fiction, Tau Zero is a breathtaking exploration of relativity, survival, and the limits of human endurance in the vast emptiness of space.

About the book
The hardest war is the one a man fights alone.
One hundred years ago, the Eternals, thirteen men and women of immense power, closer, many believed, to gods than mortals, stood against the greatest threat the world had ever faced.
And they lost.
They died.
All save for one, known as the Youngest, who managed to flee with the enemy leader’s weapon, a cursed blade of incredible power.
He has traveled for a hundred years since, alone save for his companion, Veikr, the only remaining horse of a legendary breed.
The last just as he is the last.
Hunted by creatures out of nightmare, he seeks only to survive, to keep the magical blade from the enemy’s grasp.
Not to save the world, for the time for saving it is past. Instead, he seeks only to delay its ending.
It is a battle he fights alone, for after they defeated the Eternals, the enemy used their magic to pose as their conquered opponents, taking over rule of the world in their stead.
For the last hundred years, the people have believed that the legendary Eternals triumphed, that they are safe. Only the wanderer knows the truth, that the world crouches with its head resting on the executioner’s block, waiting for the axe to fall.
And the only thing keeping that axe at bay is him.
He had a name once, but he has it no longer.
He is simply the Last. The Youngest.
He is the Wandering Sword.

Biographies & Memoirs
Our take
By thirteen, Lily Bailey was certain she was bad. OCD ruled her life, forcing her into exhausting rituals to prevent imagined disasters.

A Washington Post Best Book of the Year.

About the book
By the age of thirteen, Lily Bailey was convinced she was bad. Her thoughts alone had caused unimaginable harm. To make up for it, she created intricate, exhausting rituals—checking, counting, confessing—desperate to keep disaster at bay.
But no matter how many compulsions she performed, the guilt never left. Inside her mind, “I” became “we,” an internal battle waged against obsessive compulsive disorder that dictated every moment of her young life. Because We Are Bad is her astonishingly intimate memoir of living with OCD—of struggling to appear “normal,” of fighting against the voices that ordered her forward, and of finally, painstakingly, breaking free.
Raw, harrowing, and ultimately redemptive, this Washington Post Best Book of the Year is an unforgettable journey into the depths of OCD—and the resilience it takes to heal.
