The Bricklayer's MarkNew York in 1853 was a city built by men who had lost everything and were determined to build something new with their hands. Patrick Sullivan had lost his farm in County Cork to a blight that turned potato leaves black overnight. He was twenty years old when he stepped off the boat at Castle Garden, carrying a canvas bag with three shirts, a photograph of his mother, and a pair of hands that...0 Σχόλια 0 Μοιράστηκε 2 Views 0 ΠροεπισκόπησηΠαρακαλούμε συνδέσου στην Κοινότητά μας για να δηλώσεις τι σου αρέσει, να σχολιάσεις και να μοιραστείς με τους φίλους σου!

The Promise That Contained the PromiseThe promise Victor Sterling made was not one promise. It was a promise that contained within itself an infinite regress of smaller promises, each one a fractal repetition of the whole. At the largest scale, the promise was simple: one thousand people would leave Earth and establish a new civilization on a planet orbiting sixty-one Cygni. This was the promise as it appeared in the newspapers, in...0 Σχόλια 0 Μοιράστηκε 2 Views 0 Προεπισκόπηση

The Rust and the FireFrank Mitchell found the generator in the basement of the abandoned steel mill on East Sixth Street. It was buried under a pile of rusted rebar and broken concrete blocks, the kind of stuff you stack somewhere because throwing it away costs money you don't have and keeping it around costs nothing except space, which you also don't have but don't really need. The generator was about four feet...0 Σχόλια 0 Μοιράστηκε 2 Views 0 Προεπισκόπηση

The Crystallization of Arthur PendletonThere is a temperature at which everything changes. Water becomes ice at thirty-two degrees Fahrenheit. Iron becomes liquid at two thousand eight hundred degrees. A man becomes something else at a temperature no thermometer can measure. Arthur Pendleton had been in the white room for seven years, three months, and eleven days when the change began. He did not know the exact count at the...0 Σχόλια 0 Μοιράστηκε 2 Views 0 Προεπισκόπηση

THE WEIGHT OF NOTHING### Act I: The Spark Ethan Cross stood in the supermarket aisle for twelve minutes before making a decision. The decision was about cereal. There were fourteen brands on the shelf, from store-brand corn flakes at three dollars a box to artisanal granola at nine dollars, and Ethan was trying to choose one. Not because he was hungry—hunger was not the issue. The issue was that each choice carried...0 Σχόλια 0 Μοιράστηκε 2 Views 0 Προεπισκόπηση

The Gilded PupilAct I: The Accident It began with a lamp and a bottle of absinthe and a moment of perfect, terrible clarity that Julian Vane would spend the rest of his life trying to reproduce and failing. He had been in his studio in Montmartre for three days without sleep, painting a portrait of a woman he had met at a salon in Saint-Germain and could not remember the name of, though he could remember...0 Σχόλια 0 Μοιράστηκε 2 Views 0 Προεπισκόπηση

The Starlight TempleThe Cotton Club breathed. It exhaled smoke and trumpet notes and the sweat of three hundred bodies packed into a space that had never been designed for so much joy. Marcus Chen sat at the piano and let his fingers do the thinking, because sometimes the thinking was too heavy for the mind to carry. He was twenty-two years old and his hands knew things his brain had not yet learned. The piano was...0 Σχόλια 0 Μοιράστηκε 2 Views 0 Προεπισκόπηση

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 Σχόλια 0 Μοιράστηκε 15 Views 0 Προεπισκόπηση

The Leviathan's WakeI am nine meters tall and I eat worlds, and I hate myself for it. My name is Darek, though the name means nothing. Names mean nothing on the Ring. We are numbers on the Ring. I am Number Seven-Two-Nine-Four, assigned to Sector Gamma, Resource Extraction Division, Sub-Section Twelve. My job is to watch the planet being consumed and make sure the extraction cables hold. I have done this job for...0 Σχόλια 0 Μοιράστηκε 14 Views 0 Προεπισκόπηση

The Gray SanatoriumThe rain in Chicago does not fall. It arrives like a verdict. I got to Graystone Sanatorium at four in the afternoon. The ferry from Wacker Drive cost me five dollars and a letter of introduction I did not ask for. The woman who hired me — Mrs. Edith Ashworth, silver-haired, silver-toothed, the kind of money that buys its own sunlight — told me her daughter Claire had gone there for "rest" and...0 Σχόλια 0 Μοιράστηκε 14 Views 0 Προεπισκόπηση

THE BEAUTY OF DEATHThe rain had been falling on London for eleven days when the order arrived. Captain Shane Holt sat in the train compartment watching fog swallow the suburbs, his fingers resting on the ring in his pocket. Elena's ring. Five years since she disappeared near Whitechapel. Five years since he had held her hand in a hospital in Dover and watched her breathe stop with the quiet dignity of a woman who...0 Σχόλια 0 Μοιράστηκε 21 Views 0 Προεπισκόπηση
