Azrael
by Andrew WoodcockAzrael, the queen of the witches. This title is bestowed upon a young girl, groomed following a personal disaster by the mysterious Master, two of three central characters to this story. Two young women brought together by personal tragedy, unleashed with frightening evil powers by the Master, to wreak havoc upon an unsuspecting London. The classic battle between good and evil, which for the majority of the story, is an uneven battle won convincingly by the evil side. The side who seems to have all the answers and solutions. Relief for the powers of good seems to come in the form of divine intervention, with a final haunting conclusion as the tide finally turns. But does it? There is a frightening twist to this tale, when everything we are safe and comfortable with is brought into question. A thought-provoking page-turner, laced with horror and humour in equal measure, sharply observed and with truly terrifying moments, Azrael is a slap in the face for anyone looking for a comfortable read.

Frankenstein: Annotated for Scientists, Engineers, and Creators of All Kinds
by Mary ShelleyThe original 1818 text of Mary Shelley's classic novel, with annotations and essays highlighting its scientific, ethical, and cautionary aspects.Mary Shelley's Frankenstein has endured in the popular imagination for two hundred years. Begun as a ghost story by an intellectually and socially precocious eighteen-year-old author during a cold and rainy summer on the shores of Lake Geneva, the dramatic tale of Victor Frankenstein and his stitched-together creature can be read as the ultimate parable of scientific hubris. Victor, “the modern Prometheus,” tried to do what he perhaps should have left to Nature: create life. Although the novel is most often discussed in literary-historical terms—as a seminal example of romanticism or as a groundbreaking early work of science fiction—Mary Shelley was keenly aware of contemporary scientific developments and incorporated them into her story. In our era of synthetic biology, artificial intelligence, robotics, and climate engineering, this edition of Frankenstein will resonate forcefully for readers with a background or interest in science and engineering, and anyone intrigued by the fundamental questions of creativity and responsibility. This edition of Frankenstein pairs the original 1818 version of the manuscript—meticulously line-edited and amended by Charles E. Robinson, one of the world's preeminent authorities on the text—with annotations and essays by leading scholars exploring the social and ethical aspects of scientific creativity raised by this remarkable story. The result is a unique and accessible edition of one of the most thought-provoking and influential novels ever written.Essays byElizabeth Bear, Cory Doctorow, Heather E. Douglas, Josephine Johnston, Kate MacCord, Jane Maienschein, Anne K. Mellor, Alfred Nordmann
Memory and Utopian Agency in Utopian/Dystopian Literature: Memory of the Future
by Carter F. HansonFor a genre that imagines possible futures as a means of critiquing the present, utopian/dystopian fiction has been surprisingly obsessed with how the past is remembered. Memory and Utopian Agency in Utopian/Dystopian Literature: Memory of the Future examines modern and contemporary utopian/dystopian literature’s preoccupation with memory, asserting that from the nineteenth century onward, memory and forgetting feature as key problematics in the genre as well as sources of the utopian impulse. Through a series of close readings of utopian/dystopian novels informed by theory and dialectics, Hanson provides a case study history of how and why memory emerged as a problem for utopia, and how recent dystopian texts situate memory as a crucial mode of utopian agency. Hanson demonstrates that many modern and contemporary writers of the genre consider the presence of certain forms of memory as necessary to the project of imagining better societies or to avoiding possible dystopian outcomes.
