Odyssey (Academy - Book 5) - Jack McDevitt
''Why read Jack McDevitt? The question should be: Who among us is such a slow pony that s/he isn''t reading McDevitt?'' Harlan EllisonTo boost waning interest in interstellar travel, a mission is sent into deep space to learn the truth about ''moonriders'', the strange lights supposedly being seen in nearby systems. But the team soon discovers that their odyssey is no mere public-relations ploy, for the moonriders are no harmless phenomenon. They are very, very dangerous ... in a way that no one could possibly have imagined.''McDevitt''s energetic, character-driven prose serves double duty by exploring Earth''s future political climate and forecasting the potential dangers awaiting humanity among the stars'' Booklist

Deepsix (Academy - Book 2) - Jack McDevitt
''Jack McDevitt is that splendid rarity, a writer who is a storyteller first and a science fiction writer second. In his ability to absolutely rivet the reader, it seems to me that he is the logical heir to Isaac Asimov and Arthur C. Clarke'' Stephen KingIn 2204, tragedy and terror forced a scientific team to prematurely evacuate the rare, life-supportingplanet of Maleiva III. Nineteen years later, it is hurtling through space and the opportunity to study it is about to be obliterated. With less than three weeks left before the disaster, superluminal pilot Priscilla ''Hutch'' Hutchins - the only even remotely qualified professional within light years of the ill-fated planet - must lead a small scientific team to the surface to glean whatever they can about its life forms and lost civilizations before time runs out. But catastrophe awaits when they are stranded on this strange and complex world of puzzles and impossibilities. And now Hutch and her people must somehow survive on a hostile world going rapidly mad as the clock ticks towards apocalypse for a doomed enigma now called Deepsix.

Odysea - Jack McDevitt
Dlouhé období politické korektnosti a přehlížení vesmírného programu, především v podobě neustálých vládních škrtů rozpočtu Akademie, muselo nevyhnutelně vést ke katastrofě. Během dálkového skoku hyperprostorem zmizel jeden z přetížených a nedostatečně udržovaných nadsvětelníků, ocitl se mimo rádiové spojení nebo se ztratil v neznámu. Mediální rozruch kolem této události popisuje vesmírný program jako černou díru, ve které mizí peníze daňových poplatníků. Kampaň proti Akademii nevede nikdo jiný než kontroverzní novinářská hvězda Gregory MacAllister. Požaduje ukončení výzkumu a využití prostředků na poslední pokus o záchranu Země před globálním oteplováním. Vedoucí operací Akademie Priscilla Hutch Hutchinsonová podnikne zoufalý pokus přitáhnout zájem veřejnosti mezihvězdnému cestování. Vysílá misi do hlubokého vesmíru s cílem studovat záhadné černé kulovité kosmické lodě, které byly spatřeny v okolí mnoha výzkumných objektů a oblíbených vesmírných destinací. Let směřuje nejdříve ke prastarému orbitálnímu chrámu nebo tisíce kilometrů dlouhému hyperkolosu, a má se jej zúčastnit i skeptický kritik MacAllister. Vše se změní, když mimozemšťané přesměrují dráhu asteroidu, a ukáže se, že vůbec nejsou tak mírumilovní, jak se zdálo. Zájem lidstva o vesmírný program je rázem na vrcholu. Stejně tak i hrůza z vyhlazení mimozemskými vetřelci … Jack McDevitt skvěle kombinuje vědecké spekulace a fascinující pocit úžasu nad záhadami, které na nás čekají ...

Thunderbird - Jack McDevitt
A startling and majestic epic from Jack McDevitt, the Nebula Award-winning author of the Alex Benedict and the Priscilla Hutchins novelsA working stargate dating back more than ten thousand years has been discovered on a Sioux reservation. Travel through the gate currently leads to three equally mysterious destinations: (1) an apparently empty garden world, quickly dubbed Eden; (2) a strange maze of underground passageways; or (3) a space station with a view of a galaxy that appears to be the Milky Way.The race to explore and claim the stargate quickly escalates, and those involved divide into opposing camps who view the teleportation technology either as an unprecedented opportunity for scientific research or a disastrous threat to national - if not planetary - security. One thing is for certain: questions about what the stargate means for humanity''s role in the galaxy cannot be ignored.Especially since travel through the stargate isn''t necessarily only one way...

The Long Sunset - Jack McDevitt
From Nebula Award winner Jack McDevitt comes the eighth installment in the popular The Academy series—Priscilla “Hutch” Hutchins discovers an interstellar message from a highly advanced race that could be her last chance for a mission before the program is shut down for good.Hutch has been the Academy’s best pilot for decades. She’s had numerous first contact encounters and even became a minor celebrity. But world politics have shifted from exploration to a growing fear that the program will run into an extraterrestrial race more advanced than humanity and war. Despite taking part in the recent scientific breakthrough that rejuvenates the human body and expands one’s lifespan, Hutch finds herself as a famous interstellar pilot with little to do, until a message from an alien race arrives. The message is a piece of music from an unexplored area. Despite the fact that this alien race could pose a great danger and that this message could have taken several thousand years to travel, the program prepares the last interstellar ship for the journey. As the paranoia grows, Hutch and her crew make an early escape—but what they find at the other end of the galaxy is completely unexpected.

Jack the Ripper - Paul Woods, Gavin Baddeley
Five brutal murders shocked London in the summer and autumn of 1888. They have never been forgotten.The Jack the Ripper case has never been solved - the killer remains a blood-spattered silhouette. Although ‘Jack’ as an entity was almost certainly invented by an unscrupulous journalist, he became an archetype - decked in the top hat and cloak of a Victorian melodrama villain, stalking the fog-wreathed streets of the old East End. The numerous Ripper theories which emerged at the time tell us more about Victorian attitudes than they do about the killer’s true identity.In Jack the Ripper the authors follow the grim homicidal trails that have permeated popular culture since the Whitechapel murders of 1888. It tells the victim’s stories in all their desperate poignancy, and explores the theories and suspects of the burgeoning field of ‘ripperology’. Conspiracy theories and myths that swirl around the case to this day, from black magicians to the royal family, are considered, as is the modern forensic view of the Ripper murders as sex crimes, with reference to disturbing modern cases such as that of the ‘Plumstead Ripper’.Terrifying and unignorable, this is the ultimate book on Jack the Ripper.

The Way of St Benedict - The Rt Hon Rowan Williams
With typical eloquence and wisdom, in The Way of St Benedict Rowan Williams explores the appeal of St Benedict’s sixth-century Rule, showing it to be a document of great relevance to present day Christians and non-believers at our particular moment in history.For over a millennium the Rule – a set of guidelines for monastic conduct – has been influential on the life of Benedictine monks, but has also served in some sense as a ‘background note’ to almost all areas of civic experience: artistic, intellectual and institutional.The effects of this on society have been far-reaching and Benedictine communities and houses still attract countless visitors, testifying to the appeal and continuing relevance of Benedict’s principles.As the author writes, the chapters of his book, which range from a discussion of Abbot Cuthbert Butler’s mysticism to ‘Benedict and the Future of Europe’, are ‘simply an invitation to look at various current questions through the lens of the Rule and to reflect on aspects of Benedictine history that might have something to say to us’.With Williams as our guide, The Way of St Benedict speaks to the Rule’s ability to help anyone live more fully in harmony with others whilst orientating themselves fully to ...
