Story
Дженли Аи, посол от Лиги Миров, отправляется на скованную льдом планету Гетен, чтобы убедить ее правителей войти в растущую межгалактическую цивилизацию. Но местные жители не доверяют Аи, ведь он мужчина, в то время как все гетенианцы — двуполые гермафродиты, меняющие свою половую роль по необходимости. Для успеха этой миссии Дженли необходимо преодолеть не только череду интриг, заговоров и предательств, но и пропасть между своими взглядами и традициями неизвестной, но интригующей культуры.FEAT DESC

Story
Клиффорд Саймак — один из отцов-основателей современной фантастики, писателей-исполинов, благодаря которым в американской литературе существует понятие «золотой век НФ». Он работал в разных направлениях жанра, но наибольшую славу — и любовь нескольких поколений читателей — ему принесли произведения, в которых виден его собственный уникальный стиль, который критики называли мягким, гуманистическим и даже пасторальным. За пятьдесят пять лет Саймак написал около тридцати романов и более ста двадцати повестей и рассказов. Награждался премиями «Хьюго», «Небьюла», «Локус» и другими.

Лукас Хильдебрандт, долгое время бывший послом на "ссе, понимает, что вскоре процесс станет необратимым и Земля полностью утеряет свою независимость.

“You like it darker? Fine, so do I,” writes Stephen King in the afterword to this magnificent new collection of twelve stories that delve into the darker part of life—both metaphorical and literal. King has, for half a century, been a master of the form, and these stories, about fate, mortality, luck, and the folds in reality where anything can happen, are as rich and riveting as his novels, both weighty in theme and a huge pleasure to digest.

“You like it darker? Fine, so do I,” writes Stephen King in the afterword to this magnificent new collection of twelve stories that delve into the darker part of life—both metaphorical and literal. King has, for half a century, been a master of the form, and these stories, about fate, mortality, luck, and the folds in reality where anything can happen, are as rich and riveting as his novels, both weighty in theme and a huge pleasure to digest.

Money - investing, personal finance, and business decisions - is typically taught as a math-based field, where data and formulas tell us exactly what to do. But in the real world people don’t make financial decisions on a spreadsheet. They make them at the dinner table, or in a meeting room, where personal history, your own unique view of the world, ego, pride, marketing, and odd incentives are scrambled together. In The Psychology of Money, award-winning author Morgan Housel shares 19 short stories exploring the strange ways people think about money.
