Sisyphus's QuarkACT I: THE RISING The blackboard in Tom O'Brien's office at NYU had not been erased in three weeks. It was covered in equations--quark mass calculations, quantum chromodynamics, the mathematics of strong nuclear force--and Tom stared at them every morning when he came in, before his students arrived, before his colleagues nodded to him in the hallway, before the day began and he had to perform...0 Σχόλια 0 Μοιράστηκε 1 Views 0 Προεπισκόπηση

The Threshold of MadnessACT I: THE RISING The laboratory beneath Cambridge was not supposed to exist. Adrian Cross had spent six months and most of his personal fortune converting a storage cellar into a facility that would have made any health and safety inspector pass out. The brain-computer interface alone had cost more than a mid-range car. The quantum computer was leased, not owned, and came with a clause that...0 Σχόλια 0 Μοιράστηκε 2 Views 0 Προεπισκόπηση

The Whale's ElegyACT I: THE RISING The laboratory beneath London smelled of salt and iron, as though the sea itself had been dragged into the earth and left to rot. Dr. Eleanor Whitmore stood before the glass partition and watched it breathe. Leviathan. That was what they called her, though Eleanor knew the name was arrogance wrapped in poetry. The whale was forty-five meters of living blue, her skin mapped...0 Σχόλια 0 Μοιράστηκε 1 Views 0 Προεπισκόπηση

The swamp does not give up its dead easily. It keeps them the way a miser keeps gold—close to the chest, in the dark, where no one can take them away.Elias Thibodeaux knew this. He had grown up on the edges of the Atchafalaya Basin, where the cypress knees rose from the black water like the knuckles of something ancient and patient. But he had been away for twenty years—twenty years in Europe, twenty years in field hospitals and mortuaries and places where death was a numbers game rather than a neighborhood. He came back because there was...0 Σχόλια 0 Μοιράστηκε 2 Views 0 Προεπισκόπηση

The SublimationThe bay did not change overnight. That was the first thing people misunderstood about the ocean. It looked the same at sunrise as it had at sunset, gray and patient and indifferent to the small dramas that played out along its edges. But something in the pressure had shifted. Tom Callahan could feel it in his bones, the way old sailors felt weather coming before any instrument could measure it....0 Σχόλια 0 Μοιράστηκε 7 Views 0 Προεπισκόπηση

Sample V-04: The Shadow of the Sun(Style B1: New York Realism) I spent four years catching for a man who believed he was a god. His name was Leo Vance. To the press, he was the "Solar Flare," a pitcher whose velocity was a mathematical impossibility and whose confidence was a weapon of mass destruction. To me, he was just the guy who screamed in my ear during the third inning and forgot to pay his share of the rent in our...0 Σχόλια 0 Μοιράστηκε 1 Views 0 Προεπισκόπηση

The Twin Mirror on Riverside DriveThe Twin Mirror on Riverside DriveThe first time I lost time, I was in the operating room at Riverside Veterinary, holding a scalpel over a golden retriever named Cooper who had swallowed a sock, and then I was standing in the hallway twenty minutes later, the scalpel still in my hand, Cooper's abdomen sutured shut, and no memory of doing any of it.I dropped the scalpel. It clattered on the...0 Σχόλια 0 Μοιράστηκε 3 Views 0 Προεπισκόπηση

The Noir DescentThe rain in Los Angeles didn't fall; it collapsed, a heavy, grey curtain that tried to drown the neon lights of the Sunset Strip. Elias sat in his office, the air thick with the smell of stale tobacco and old regrets. The gold lettering on the door still said "Private Investigator," but the gold was peeling, much like Elias’s faith in humanity. He had once been the golden boy of the LAPD, the...0 Σχόλια 0 Μοιράστηκε 2 Views 0 Προεπισκόπηση

Sample V-06: The Family Tree of Flesh(Southern Gothic Style) The Blackwood Manor did not stand upon the earth; it seemed to be sinking into it, swallowed by the weeping willows and the oppressive humidity of the Georgia swamps. Silas Blackwood, the last of a dying line, had spent his inheritance on forbidden texts and jars of preserved organs, all in a desperate attempt to bring back the laughter of his dead daughter, Clara. He...0 Σχόλια 0 Μοιράστηκε 3 Views 0 Προεπισκόπηση
