Auf eine bislang ungeklärte Art und Weise verschwand das Solsystem mit seinen Planeten sowie allen Bewohnern aus dem bekannten Universum. Die Heimat der Menschheit wurde in ein eigenes kleines Universum transferiert, wo die Terraner auf seltsame Nachbarn treffen. Die Lage spitzt sich zu, als die Planeten von fremden Raumfahrern besetzt und die Sonne Sol "verhüllt" wird. Seither kämpft die solare Menschheit um ihr Überleben.

Seit dem dramatischen Verschwinden des Solsystems mit all seinen Bewohnern hat sich die Situation in der Milchstraße grundsätzlich verändert.

Der unsterbliche Arkonide Atlan begibt sich auf eine gefährliche Fahrt nach Hangay, an den Brennpunkt des Geschehens.

Dabei begegnet er zu seinem Entsetzen einem ihm wohl-bekannten, aber im Auftrag des Feindes operierenden Hantelraumer. Dessen Aktionen lenkt DER NEUE HERR DER SOL...

Subtle links between these 10 powerful stories magnify the consequences of combat for both soldiers and civilians as the violence experienced abroad echoes through their lives in America.

Lee Hood did that rarest of things. He enabled scientists to see things they couldn't see before and do things they hadn't dreamed of doing. Scientists can now sequence complete human genomes in a day, setting in motion a revolution that is personalizing medicine. Hood, a son of the American West, was an unlikely candidate to transform biology. But with ferocious drive, he led a team at Caltech that developed the automated DNA sequencer, the tool that paved the way for the Human Genome Project.

In 1953, a 27-year-old factory worker named Henry Molaison - who suffered from severe epilepsy - received a radical new version of the then-common lobotomy, targeting the most mysterious structures in the brain. The operation failed to eliminate Henry’s seizures, but it did have an unintended effect: Henry was left profoundly amnesic, unable to create long-term memories. Over the next 60 years, Patient H.M., as Henry was known, became the most studied individual in the history of neuroscience, a human guinea pig who would teach us much of what we know about memory today.

Provence, 1970 is about a singular historic moment. In the winter of that year, more or less coincidentally, the iconic culinary figures James Beard, M.F.K. Fisher, Julia Child, Richard Olney, Simone Beck, and Judith Jones found themselves together in the South of France. They cooked and ate, talked and argued, about the future of food in America, the meaning of taste, and the limits of snobbery.

When Luke Allnutt suddenly found out his father had only a few months left to live, he expected a time of deep conversations and long reflective walks along the beach -- about where they had both been and where they both were going. He expected some sort of denouement, an ultimate reckoning, a performance in which his father would play the dying sage and he would play the dutiful son. In the end, it was nothing like that. But in his father’s silence, he found something surprising -- and, in the end, all the more meaningful.

When Gulliver Leverenz abandons LA to make a fresh start in New York, he leaves behind his family, his friends - and one bastard ex-boyfriend.

As luck would have it, Gully soon snags a job with a talent agent and even finds himself a new boyfriend. There’s just one catch...

Learning should be fun. However, memorizing a list of vocabulary is rarely fun and usually ineffective. Even though you go through your flashcards a hundred times, by the next day, you’ve probably forgotten 50 percent of the vocabulary. But what if you could hear and see the vocabulary used over and over again in context? What if that context was a fun story that you would enjoy reading or listening to over and over again? 

We've been duped. We were raised to think we could have it all. In college we were told that men weren't necessary. Pop culture told us that career, not family, came first. The idea of being a stay-at-home mom was for losers. And yet are we happier than our mothers or grandmothers, who grew up before women were "liberated" by the sexual revolution? For many women, the answer is no.
