Description: Dark Robe Heart: Dark Robe Society 1 by Jason Edding A disillusioned Jack Harrow escapes the crowded Earth of 2575 and its increasingly militaristic government, hoping to make a new life on the distant small moon of Jupiter. During this long voyage, military recruit Edge Fland catches first his eye, then his lust, but there's more to this quiet man than Jack knows. The Dark Robe Society's assassins are on Jack's trail and will stop at nothing to achieve their goal of returning the item he carries to their society. The Bright Side of Midnight by Angela Fiddler Pleasure or pain? The Dose. On paper, it's a mild mood enhancer that takes the edge of drudgery and keeps workers happy. But people are killing to get it and dying to make it. Tavish knows all about it, his lover is one of the dying and he vows that the truth will get out no matter the means. His quest will take him from the sickness that takes over his lover to inside Alpha Site where the man who controls the colony pushes him to his knees and the edge of his boundaries. Will The Bright Side of Midnight be Tavish's ruin or salvation?

Dewey Decimal Number: 813

Reading Level: 384
 
Description:

Surreal and satiric, this collection of short fiction pays a mesmerizing visit to the shadowy zone that lies between present everyday life and a perilous near future that is frighteningly tangible. In "The Wall of America," the Department of Homeland Security has put up a border wall between the U.S. and Canada, but the NEA has plans to turn it into the world’s largest art gallery. After the Rapture, working-class life for "A Family of the Post-Apocalypse" is not as different as one might imagine, despite the occasional plague of biker-gang locusts. Between addiction and art is "Ringtime," where a criminal is trapped in a recursive compulsion to visit other people's memories while he is forced to record his own for an eager audience. A Somali schoolgirl living in post-WWIII Minneapolis goes on a bloody crusade to rid her town of a familiar predator, one who might just be a monster, in "White Man." Vivid, starkly imagined, and strikingly articulate, this disquieting compilation is a journey that skillfully straddles the line between absurdity and irony.
