Ja, legenda
Jakie istoty zostają legendami? Może ostatni człowiek na ziemi, kosmiczna kreatura albo szalony wynalazca. Małe stworzonka ze szczytów Himalajów, o których istnieniu nie mieliście pojęcia lub najbardziej sumienny kanar z koszmarów tych, którzy jeżdżą bez biletu. Może cizia z ajfonem. Artysta błądzący w mroku i szaleństwie pomiędzy obrazami, wędrowiec pośród snów, rycerz bez skazy, król marzyciel. Czy słyszeliście kiedyś myśli nanocząstek? Patrzyliście na koguta, który wzbija się pod sam sufit, pokonawszy grawitację? Czy chcecie poczuć świat, na chwilę wyłączając wzrok lub zarazić go swoimi emocjami tak, by przeżarły jego elementy niczym rdza? W Ja, legenda czeka na Was to i jeszcze więcej.

Napoleon Victorious!
It is June 1815 and an Anglo-led Allied army under the Duke of Wellington’s command and Gebhard Leberecht von Blücher is set to face Napoleon Boneparte near Waterloo in present-day Belgium. What happens next is well known to any student of history: the two armies of the Seventh Coalition defeated Bonaparte in a battle that resulted in the end of his reign and of the First French Empire. But the outcome could have been very different, as Peter Tsouras demonstrates in this thought-provoking and highly readable alternate history of the fateful battle. By introducing minor – but realistic – adjustments, Tsouras presents a scenario in which the course of the battle runs quite differently, which in turn sets in motion new and unexpected possibilities. Cleverly conceived and expertly executed, this is alternate history at its best.

The Stone God Awakens
Twentieth-century scientist Ulysses Singing Bear had no idea his experiments with atomic stasis would result in a twenty-million-year journey to a world peopled by the descendants of present-day mammals. It was the world of Awina, the cat-woman who impossibly loved Ulysses. It was the planet of the mammoth continent-spanning intelligence-The Tree, whose branches touched the heavens and whose roots clasped hell-who knew that Ulysses, the newly-awakened Stone God, could destroy his reign. To enable his species to survive, Ulysses had to find a human mate. To do so, and to fulfill the single condition set by his worshippers, he had to confront The Tree. It would have been an easy task for a god, but he was only a man-and the only man at that... Originally published as an ACE paperback in 1970, The Stone God Awakens has been reprinted numerous times throughout the '70s and into the '80s, but is still one of Philip José Farmer's lesser-known works. And that is a shame because, as Danny Adams (co-author with Philip José Farmer of The City Beyond Play and Dayworld: A Hole in Wednesday) spells out in his introduction, it is "a breathless mix of adventure, intellect, and myth."
