Phisika Meta Ta
by Alejandro Hernández Muñoz<P>Si encuentras silencio, valdrá más que gastar energía innecesaria. <P>En un futuro mermado de población, estamos sometidos a unas normas de convivencia impuestas por los gobernantes. <P>En Marte, la armonía con los sueños de la Tierra hace que gracias al Satélite dure treinta segundos la forma de holograma entre los Egoms y veamos reflejadas las contestaciones a las preguntas del Juego de las Charlas. <P>En el rito de las diez, esperamos a que pase el Haz de Luz a las diez y media, sobrecogiéndonos al poder de la retroalimentación divina con el silencio. Cuando aprendes a convivir en paz y armonía, el constante sosiego hace que las vueltas de la vida solo sean sueños. <P>En Marte hacen lo posible por llevarse a un grupo de personas hacia el planeta rojo. <P>En la Tierra, los vientos y las incesantes lluvias en épocas frías hacen que en el nuevo sitio sea posible la realidad de esos sueños que se comparten, y hagan posible encontrar la forma de llegar hasta allí.
Phobos
by Ty DragoLt. Mike Brogue is one of a kind: the only native Martian to be a commissioned officer. He's the military's poster boy for relieving political tensions between Mars Colony and Earth---but he wants nothing to do with it. Brogue is just a man trying to do his job as a tactical analyst and prefers to leave the politics to civilians and government subcommittees.After he manages to save a top Terran official from an extremist plot, however, the only way to avoid the spotlight is to get offplanet. So he pulls some strings and gets shipped to one of the small moons of Mars to help unravel a mystery.Some people at the research station on Phobos---Mars's smallest moon---have been killed, and it seems like the culprit is a native life form. The first military team sent in quickly discovered just how lethal the Phobos beast could be.Brogue, however, doesn't focus on the dust clouds and barren rock that compose the beast's lair but rather turns his attention to the high-tech research facility and its crew.He soon learns that there's no such thing as a safe haven from political upheaval.At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Sentenced to stay until his eighteenth birthday, Carl plans to play by the rules, so he makes friends with his wisecracking bunkmate, Ross, and a mysterious gray-eyed girl named Octavia. But he makes enemies, too, and after a few rough scrapes, he earns himself the nickname "Hollywood" as well as a string of punishments, including a brutal night in the "sweatbox." But that's nothing compared to what awaits him in the "Chop Shop"--a secret government lab where Carl is given something he never dreamed of. A new life. . . . A new body. A new brain. Gifts from the fatherly Old Man, who wants to transform Carl into something he's not sure he wants to become. For this is no ordinary government project.
