Triplanetary (Lensman Ser. #Vol. 1)
by E. E. SmithE. E. &“Doc&” Smith is often referred to as the father of Space Opera.

The Eddorians, a dictatorial, power-hungry race, enter our universe from an alternate space-time continuum after observing our galaxy and its sister galaxy passing through one another.

Triplanetary (Lensman Ser. #Vol. 1)
by E. E. SmithThe first installment in the groundbreaking Lensman series, one of the greatest space opera sagas of all time Nevia, located many light years from the Earth&’s sun, is running out of iron, the primary source of energy for the planet&’s dominant amphibious race. Armed with technology that can extract iron atoms from anything it encounters—rock, machinery, man-made structures, even human blood—the Nevians set their sights on a rich lode of the precious element: the planet Earth. Descending on its unsuspecting target, the Nevian space-ship destroys the city of Pittsburgh and its defenseless inhabitants before heading home with three human specimens in its hold. Among them is Conway Costigan, an undercover intelligence operative for the Triplanetary Patrol. From deep within the bowels of the enemy ship, Costigan must do the impossible: find a way to defeat the Nevians before every man, woman, and child on Earth is annihilated. Known as the &“father of space opera,&” E. E. &“Doc&” Smith imagined remarkable future worlds and breathtaking intergalactic battles before the heyday of Robert Heinlein and Isaac Asimov, and decades before Star Wars and Star Trek became part of the popular culture. His best-known work, the Lensman series, was one of five finalists for the Hugo Award for Best All-Time Series. This ebook has been professionally proofread to ensure accuracy and readability on all devices.

Triplet
by Timothy ZahnThe world was a mass of garish color, surrounding him like splotches of light thrown into a whirlpool. The faint background haze of plant life, the brighter and more localized bits that were animals and insects, the almost painful shining that bespoke a member of humankind--it was a far cry from the grays and blacks of his proper abode. Astaroth hated it all. He hated the humans most, of course, but none of it totally escaped his resentment.

Tripletta di Mezzanotte: Tre Agghiaccianti Novelle Canadesi
by Steve VernonMi piace un buon romanzo. È come un bel pugno secco nell’addome. Dato per bene - ha un impatto! "Una straordinaria morte improvvisa" è stato originariamente pubblicato come una novella a sé. Volevo scrivere un film di serie B - ma ero troppo pigro per imparare a scrivere una sceneggiatura - così ho deciso di scrivere qualcosa che avrebbe divertito sia i lettori che me stesso - tanto quanto un buon film di mostri di serie B - come "Tremors" o "Ragazzi perduti" o "Fright Night-Il vampiro della porta" accanto o "30 giorni di buio". Sono stato a lungo affascinato nel vedere come la gente comune si comporta di fronte al male. Questi sono i miei personaggi preferiti – persone semplici, comuni. Mi piace immaginarle coraggiose e romantiche e selvagge e piena di vita - perché tutti abbiamo questo potenziale sepolto dentro di noi in profondità. Così - quando mi sono seduto a scrivere "Un straordinaria morte improvvisa" ho preso le persone più difficili che avessi mai immaginato e le ho gettate contro le forze delle tenebre. "Hammurabi Road" è stato originariamente pubblicato nel 2007 come la seconda novella di una raccolta di due novelle intitolata HARD ROADS - pubblicata da Gray Friar Press. La storia è il mio modo di rivisitare la mia casa d'infanzia di Capreol, Ontario - una piccola città ferroviaria dove sono cresciuto. L'ultima novella - "Non una storia di fantasmi qualunque" non è mai stato pubblicato prima. Spero che questi racconti vi piacciano quanto mi sono divertito a scriverli.
