"I wonder what dinner means," I said. "Meaning's a lot to ask of a bolt."I've been thinking about the Captain a lot lately. Not because he was important — well, maybe because he was supposed to be important — but because when it all comes down to it, he's the person I remember most from those fifteen years under the Hudson. His real name was Richard Walton, but everyone called him the Captain, not because he had ever commanded a ship — though he had, once, a cargo...0 التعليقات 0 المشاركات 3 مشاهدة 0 معاينةالرجاء تسجيل الدخول , للأعجاب والمشاركة والتعليق على هذا!

The Footprint in the SnowThe silence of the Norwegian winter was not a lack of sound, but a presence. It was a heavy, white blanket that muffled the world, turning the small village of Isfjorden into a ghost town. Inside a small cabin of blackened pine, Lars lay in a bed of wool and sheepskin, watching the frost crystallize on the windowpane. He was a man of few words, a retired teacher who had spent forty years...0 التعليقات 0 المشاركات 2 مشاهدة 0 معاينة

The Audit of StarsThe Galactic Trade Network was a shimmering web of wormholes and credit-exchanges, where entire star systems were bought and sold like commodities. CEO Thorne was the most powerful man in the network, a predator who viewed the universe as a giant balance sheet. He had discovered the "Cosmic Auditor," a high-dimensional entity that periodically performed a "Value Assessment" of the universe. If...0 التعليقات 0 المشاركات 3 مشاهدة 0 معاينة

The Man Who Tended the SoilI Frank Delaney woke at six in the morning every day, regardless of the season, because his body had learned the rhythm of the factory whistle even though the factory had been closed for three years. He lay in bed for a moment, listening to the silence of the room, the silence of the house, the silence of the town. Oakhaven, Ohio had been quiet for a long time now, but it was a different kind...0 التعليقات 0 المشاركات 3 مشاهدة 0 معاينة

The Patient from BelowPart I: The Lock Henri Leclerc was thirty-three years old, the youngest mathematics professor at the Ecole Normale Superieure in Paris, and in the spring of 1893 he was on the verge of a discovery that would have changed the course of mathematics. He had been working on hypergeometric functions—specifically, on a class of functions that extended the concept of infinity to higher dimensions. In...0 التعليقات 0 المشاركات 3 مشاهدة 0 معاينة

THE QUIET ENDFrank O'Malley woke at six in the morning. It was not an alarm clock that woke him. It was the habit of waking at six, established twelve years ago in a base camp in the Ho Chi Minh Trail and never broken, even after he broke everything else. He lay in the dark. The apartment was small—one bedroom, one bathroom, a kitchen that was really just a corner with a stove and a refrigerator the size of...0 التعليقات 0 المشاركات 3 مشاهدة 0 معاينة

The Magnolia AbattoirI. The cellar door had been locked for as long as Pauline DuBois could remember, which was twenty years, three months, and twelve days. She counted because counting was something you could do without asking permission, and in the Welch manor, permission was the one thing they never gave. The lock was old—rust eating at the iron teeth, the keyhole clogged with decades of Mississippi humidity....0 التعليقات 0 المشاركات 3 مشاهدة 0 معاينة

The Scholar of the RhineJulian Voss was born into the suffocating embrace of a Prussian military family, but his heart beat to the rhythm of a different drum. While his brothers mastered the art of the saber, Julian mastered the art of the book. In the late 19th century, the universities of Europe were the new battlefields, and Julian was a soldier of the mind. His journey began in Heidelberg, where he sought to...0 التعليقات 0 المشاركات 3 مشاهدة 0 معاينة

The Reclamation of StoneOn the morning of her fifty-ninth day in 1921, Isabel Wentworth stopped being the woman Arthur had preserved. She had spent fifty-eight days being grateful. Grateful to the young couple who found her. Grateful to the doctors who woke her. Grateful to be breathing air that did not smell of chemicals and old stone. She had worn the modern dresses Eleanor bought her and smiled at the motorcars and...0 التعليقات 0 المشاركات 3 مشاهدة 0 معاينة

The Luxury of IgnoranceI. The White Noise Samuel lived in a house of glass and silence in the hills of Vermont. For ten years, he had been the "All-Seeing Man." He didn't have a gift; he had a curse. He perceived the world as a constant, overlapping stream of total information. He knew the exact number of ants in the garden, the secret regrets of the mailman, and the precise second the sun would eventually swallow...0 التعليقات 0 المشاركات 3 مشاهدة 0 معاينة

The饲养 ManualThe reactor glowed blue in the White House underground bunker. It was the size of a basketball, smooth and black and utterly unremarkable except for the fact that it was producing more energy than the entire state of California consumed in a year. President Catherine Walsh stared at it the way a child stares at a magic trick—wide-eyed, smiling, trying not to show how desperately she wanted to...0 التعليقات 0 المشاركات 3 مشاهدة 0 معاينة

Sample V-09: The Geometry of Madness(Style F: Psychological Thriller) Mr. Finch believed in the absolute authority of the right angle. In his classroom in the isolated hills of Vermont, everything was a matter of precision. The desks were aligned to the millimeter; the students' pens were placed at exactly ninety degrees to the edge of the paper. "Chaos is the enemy of the mind," Finch would declare, his voice a sharp, rhythmic...0 التعليقات 0 المشاركات 7 مشاهدة 0 معاينة
