After settling into a new job, new home and new living arrangements, Andersson Dexter has finally found a comfortable life in both the physical and virtual worlds. But that sense of security is blown apart when an explosion rocks Dex's real-life Nice neighbourhood. He and his colleagues begin an investigation into a string of seemingly senseless and random vandalism attacks, that remind them all of similar attacks in the simulated world Marionette City. While at first the attacks seem more like a nuisance than a threat, Dex discovers that there are more serious - even fatal - consequences. As the trail leads Dex closer and closer to home, he is forced to confront the lengths he is willing to go for justice.

Devi and the crew are crossing the Pacific - not bad for someone who'd never even stepped on a sailboat a month ago.

She gets hired by Really Remote Desktop, a cloud data storage company that keeps their servers in odd places, like the bilge of a hundred-foot sailboat. How can a homebody like Devi step on to a boat with six strangers and sail away from everything she has ever known? All while trying to do her best at her first real job?

Two dozen tales of far away worlds, future Earths, a reality that lives beside our own. From childhood dreams that haunt adulthood to alien creatures trapped in a never-ending cycle to visions of a future among the stars, the stories in this collection span the realms of the fantastic but with a core of humanity. You'll find hope in dystopia, despair in perfection and one or two bug-eyed aliens. Includes "Fire.Escape." (shortlisted for the Sir Julius Vogel award for best novella, 2013) and "The Interview" - both part of the Andersson Dexter universe.

Beset by doubts about whether his feelings are truly his own, he worries his love for his boyfriend, Horatio, is an illusion, all the while driven by a consuming need for revenge. While he has a method, there is a madness in it, and Hamlet's actions will leave no corner of Elsinore unscathed.A beat-by-beat retelling of the Shakespeare classic, Hamlet, Prince of Robots grapples with conscience, ambition, and pain, and what it means to be, or not to be, human.
