A spellbinding tale of one woman’s fight for life, and one man’s sacrifice to save her.
Civilization collapses: temperatures rise, viruses destroy medical capacities, ravaging weather systems leave fields barren, and the grid system fails. Human society shrinks until only refugee camps remain. But from this precipice The Centers arise. Telepathic, organic, harmonious biospheres of perfect natural balance. Consciousness is shared, body parts recycled, group mind intuition organizes society; it is a world in which the wrongs of human history have been righted. The Centers save humanity. But 25 years after their creation, a new disease threatens their existence.
Willa arrived at The Center an orphan and has happily assimilated into Center life, but she wakes up after her arm transplant surgery to discover the disease progressing faster in her than anyone before. She must make an emergency journey into the wild Exterior where hyenas prowl overgrown interstates, ice hurricanes shatter summer days, and marauders kill and steal what they can.
Ben, a survivalist in what was once Montana, is the one person who may be able to heal her. But he will have to face his own demons, reckoning with his choice to leave society, now that humans have returned into is life. Willa's arrival unsettles him in ways he thought long dead. And the arrival of the spring herd migrating from the Great Plains has brought an old enemy back; a band of men that tried to kill him years ago has returned to take what he's built.
Six people risk their lives to deliver Willa to safety. But they are up against an invisible enemy, a hidden force of balance embedded within The Centers program which threatens to unleash the lethal mutation into the entire population. Willa's fate may determine the fate of The Centers themselves.
To survive, they must each face something long buried, the dead. The creation of The Centers was marked by a sacrifice, and the haunting memories of that day will no longer rest. Only through choosing death do they have any hope of succeeding.

Dave Cartwright used to be good at a lot of things: good with his hands, good at solving problems, good at staying calm in a crisis. But on the heels of his third tour in Iraq, the fabric of Dave’s life has begun to unravel. Gripped by PTSD, he finds himself losing his home, his wife, his direction. Most days, his love for his seven-year-old daughter, Bella, is the only thing keeping him going. When tragedy strikes, Dave makes a dramatic decision: the two of them will flee their damaged lives, heading off the grid to live in the wilderness of the Pacific Northwest.

Many of us feel trapped in a grind of constant change: rolling news cycles, the chatter of social media, our families split along partisan lines. We feel fearful and tired, on edge in our bodies, not quite knowing what has us perpetually depleted. For Katherine May, this low hum of fatigue and anxiety made her wonder what she was missing. Could there be a different way to relate to the world, one that would allow her to feel more rested and at ease, even as seismic changes unfold on the planet?

Years ago, when plagues and natural disasters killed millions of people, much of the world stopped dreaming. Without dreams, people are haunted, sick, mad, unable to rebuild. The government soon finds that the Indigenous people of North America have retained their dreams, an ability rumored to be housed in the very marrow of their bones. Soon, residential schools pop up — or are re-opened — across the land to bring in the dreamers and harvest their dreams.

In 2010, Nick Polizzi did something unimaginable. He assembled a group of eight desperately ill patients from around the world and brought them into the heart of the Amazon rain forest to put the mysterious medicines of native shamans to the test. The healing journey that unfolded would change their lives - and his own - forever. In The Sacred Science, we join Nick as he explores these primordial traditions and learns firsthand what it takes to truly heal ourselves of physical disease, emotional trauma, and the sense of "lostness" that so many of us feel in these modern times.

Five hundred years in the future, earth is no longer populated by humans. The new guardians of Earth, the genetically engineered Erta, have reversed climate change. They are now faced with a dilemma; if they reintroduce the rebellious and violent Homo sapiens, all of their work will be undone. They decide to raise one final child, a sole human to help decide if humanity should again inherit the Earth. But the quiet and clinical Ima finds that there is more to raising a human than she had expected and that there is more to humanity's history than she has been told.

Change or die: the only options available on the Durallium Company-owned planet GP. The planet's deadly virus had killed most of the original colonists - and changed the rest irrevocably. Centuries after the colony had lost touch with the rest of humanity, the Company returned to exploit GP, and its forces found themselves fighting for their lives. Afraid of spreading the virus, the Company had left its remaining employees in place, afraid and isolated from the natives.

It turns out Addison was right: The world as he knew it did come to an end by means of a killer virus. He’s by himself now, near what was Sicily, Oklahoma, tending to a wilted vegetable garden, foraging for rabbits, and eking out not quite enough water from a dried-up well. It’s time to move. Uncle Izzy, whom he’s decided to seek out in his survivalist cabin hundreds of miles away, had prepared him well for an apocalypse - all but for the loneliness. But the virus didn’t quite kill everybody. And humanity isn't all that humane anymore.
