Publisher's Summary
Merle Corey è un giovane e brillante designer di computer, ma è anche Merlin, figlio dell'ex principe di Ambra, Corwin, di cui ha ereditato i meravigliosi poteri. Nel tentativo di comprendere meglio suo padre, Merlin ha trascorso gli ultimi anni sulla Terra, a San Francisco, studiando informatica e progettando uno straordinario computer mai visto prima.
Adesso è deciso a tornare ad Ambra, ma prima di farlo intende scoprire chi sta cercando di ucciderlo e perché. A tale scopo inizierà una disperata corsa attraverso le ombre, non solo per sfuggire alla misteriosa forza che minaccia la sua vita, ma per proteggere il segreto mortale che potrebbe distruggere entrambi i suoi mondi...

We were fighting on the wrong side of a war we couldn't win. And that was the good news. The Ruhar hit us on Columbus Day. There we were, innocently drifting along the cosmos on our little blue marble, like the native Americans in 1492. Over the horizon come ships of a technologically advanced, aggressive culture, and BAM! There go the good old days, when humans only got killed by each other. So, Columbus Day. It fits. When the morning sky twinkled again, this time with Kristang starships jumping in to hammer the Ruhar, we thought we were saved.

Zachary Quinto - best known for his role as the Nimoy-approved Spock in the recent Star Trek reboot and the menacing, power-stealing serial killer, Sylar, in Heroes - brings his well-earned sci-fi credentials and simmering intensity to this audio-exclusive novella from master storyteller John Scalzi. One day, not long from now, it becomes almost impossible to murder anyone - 999 times out of a thousand, anyone who is intentionally killed comes back. How? We don't know.

Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

When an experiment to study quantum uncertainty goes spectacularly wrong, physics student Bill Rustad and his friends find that they have accidentally created an inter-dimensional portal. They connect to Outland - an alternate Earth with identical geology, but where humans never evolved. The group races to establish control of the portal before the government, the military, or evildoers can take it away. Then everything changes when the Yellowstone supervolcano erupts in an explosion large enough to destroy civilization and kill half the planet.
