In the many-worlds theory of quantum mechanics, all possible events exist, have existed or will exist as each act or decision spins-off a plethora of parallel universes. This means, among other things, that every project I haven’t put into practice has in fact been accomplished by one of my many-world selves. Think then of all that I’ve accomplished over the years as I procrastinated, dithered and postponed putting my ideas into action!
in The Night’s Dawn Trilogy (The Reality Dysfunction, The Neutronium Alchemist and The Naked God), the very survival of humanity is on the line as the dead possess whole planets in a high-tech future. This massive epic is one hell of a ride; a relentless and incredibly entertaining space-opera of awesome proportions!
The Mars Trilogy (Red Mars, Green Mars & Blue Mars) is one of the most mind-expanding reading experiences I’ve ever had. It is a rich, sweeping, epic chronicle of the colonization of Mars as well as the rest of the solar system; the power humans have to transform their own environment and how that environment can transform humanity as well; the long-term impact of extending human lifespan by centuries and the catastrophic consequences of rising sea levels on Earth. But most of all, it is a roadmap to building a better civilization free from the poisons of the past.
You will never find a funnier, more densely informative, action-packed adventure about money, slavery, the birth of science and the love life of Isaac Newton.
Thanks to sharp writing, slick design and dark, offbeat humor this video game has become an industry milestone and a universal example of what good game design can achieve. It is a must for anyone looking for a highly polished, offbeat and clever gaming experience.
In the grand tradition of “What If” stories, the early Marvel universe is translated into 17th century costumes and historical context. Through Neil Gaiman’s magic, Marvel’s classic Silver Age characters are thus reborn anew into something completely different and yet, somehow, exhilaratingly the same.
Half-Life 2 feature a thoroughly immersive and engaging experience as you are drawn further into the ongoing saga of Gordon Freeman, scientist turned hero, and join the human resistance to Earth’s occupation by The Combine, a mysterious alien organization. Even if the underlying game technology has since been surpassed by other games, this follow-up to the ground-breaking Half-Life (1997) smash hit remains a mind-(and alien)-blowing experience of a rare level of intelligence and sensibility for any game.
It’s World War II and the allies have cracked the encryption of a major Axis communication codes. How can they act without revealing their access to this precious intelligence? Detachment 2702, a rag-tag group of soldiers and intelligence agents, is dispatched to create believable (and hilarious) alibis to justify why German and Japanese convoys keep getting sunk.
A megalomaniac IT billionaire with messianic delusions and access to high-tech nano- and bio- technology threatens the very soul of humanity: our free will.
