Condición: Good. SAVE THE SOLAR SYSTEM FROM THE ULTIMATE COLLAPSE In the eighth decade of the Queendom of Sol, three commodities rule the day. The first is wellstone, a form of programmable matter capable of emulating almost any substance. The second is collapsium, a deadly crystal composed of miniature black holes, vital for the transmission of information and matter?including humans?throughout the Solar System. The third is the bitter rivalry between Her Majesty's top scientists. Bruno de Towaji, famed lover and statesman, dreams of building an arc de fin, an almost mythical device capable of probing the farthest reaches of spacetime. Marlon Sykes, de Towaji's rival in both love and science, is meanwhile hard at work on a vast telecommunications project whose first step is the construction of a ring of collapsium around the Sun. But when a ruthless saboteur attacks the Ring Collapsiter and sends it falling into the Sun, the two scientists must put aside personal animosity and combine their prodigious intellects to prevent the destruction of the Solar System?and every living thing within it. About The Collapsium: ?Ingenious and witty . . . as if Terry Pratchett at his zaniest and Larry Niven at his best had collaborated.??Booklist "Fresh and imaginative.  From a plausible yet startling invention, McCarthy follows the logical lines of sight, building in parallel the technological and societal innovations."?Science Fiction Weekly "The future as McCarthy sees it is a wondrous place." ?Publishers Weekly "[McCarthy] studs his narrative with far-out scientific concepts. . . . He certainly has a sense of humor."?The New York Times ?An ingenious yarn with challenging ideas, well-handled technical details, and plenty of twists and turns.??Kirkus.…

Hardback. Condición: Fair. What if our legends are older than we think?  All the Stone Age has left behind are rocks and bones; all other materials have rotted away, leaving no trace.  But what if ?cave men? never existed, and the Stone Age was a time of great sophistication still preserved in our oldest stories? In a brilliant and dangerous brain hacking experiment, Harv Leonel and Tara Mukherjee are about to discover entire lifetimes of human memory coded in our genes, and reveal ancient legends ? from knights and trolls, to flood myths, to the birth of humanity itself ? that are as real as they are deadly. Before disaster erased the coastlines and river valleys of the Antediluvian age?before the Flood?men and women struggled and yearned and innovated in a world of savage contrasts into which Harv and Tara are thrust, unprepared.  Will their science be enough to save them? About Wil McCarthy: "McCarthy is an entertaining, intelligent, amusing writer, with Heinlein's knack for breakneck plotting and, at the same time, Clarke's thoughtfulness."?Booklist ??Imagination really is the only limit.???The New York Times ?The future as McCarthy sees it is a wondrous place.??Publishers Weekly "A bright light on the SF horizon.??David Brin  ?Wil McCarthy demonstrates that he has a sharp intelligence, a galaxy-spanning imagination, and the solid scientific background to make it all work.??Connie Willis  ?In nearly every passage, we get another slice of the science of McCarthy?s construction, and a deeper sense of danger and foreboding. McCarthy develops considerable tension.??San Diego Union-Tribune ?An ingenious yarn with challenging ideas, well-handled technical details, and plenty of twists and turns.??Kirkus.…
