Book Description
After a poker game turns to bloodshed, John (Doc) Holliday is forced to leave Wichita, fleeing the law through the thick of a thunderstorm. He arrives in Dodge City, sick, wounded and depressed. He returns to his old trade as a dentist, but his tuberculosis and reputation as a gunfighter leaves him with few patients. He saves lawman Wyatt Earp's life one night and despite their differences, becomes a loyal friend. When Doc suffers a serious lung hemorrhage, Wyatt in turn saves his life and oversees his new friend's recovery. Despite having a wicked reputation as a gunfighter, Doc proves that he is loyal and can be trusted to assist the lawmen of Dodge City. Doc Holliday's loyalty is tested to its limit when Wyatt Earp and his family's lives are placed in danger in Tombstone, Arizona. Doc must choose to risk not only his own life, but his home, and reputation at the Gunfight at the O.K. Corral. It will amount to the biggest gamble of Doc's life. How far would you go to keep a friend and fight for something you believe in?

Hell and Hazard
Fall; or, Dodge in Hell
Author: Neal Stephenson
Publisher: HarperCollins
ISBN: 0062458736
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 896
Book Description
New York Times Bestseller A New York Times Notable Book The #1 New York Times bestselling author of Seveneves, Anathem, Reamde, and Cryptonomicon returns with a wildly inventive and entertaining science fiction thriller—Paradise Lost by way of Philip K. Dick—that unfolds in the near future, in parallel worlds. In his youth, Richard “Dodge” Forthrast founded Corporation 9592, a gaming company that made him a multibillionaire. Now in his middle years, Dodge appreciates his comfortable, unencumbered life, managing his myriad business interests, and spending time with his beloved niece Zula and her young daughter, Sophia. One beautiful autumn day, while he undergoes a routine medical procedure, something goes irrevocably wrong. Dodge is pronounced brain dead and put on life support, leaving his stunned family and close friends with difficult decisions. Long ago, when a much younger Dodge drew up his will, he directed that his body be given to a cryonics company now owned by enigmatic tech entrepreneur Elmo Shepherd. Legally bound to follow the directive despite their misgivings, Dodge’s family has his brain scanned and its data structures uploaded and stored in the cloud, until it can eventually be revived. In the coming years, technology allows Dodge’s brain to be turned back on. It is an achievement that is nothing less than the disruption of death itself. An eternal afterlife—the Bitworld—is created, in which humans continue to exist as digital souls. But this brave new immortal world is not the Utopia it might first seem . . . Fall, or Dodge in Hell is pure, unadulterated fun: a grand drama of analog and digital, man and machine, angels and demons, gods and followers, the finite and the eternal. In this exhilarating epic, Neal Stephenson raises profound existential questions and touches on the revolutionary breakthroughs that are transforming our future. Combining the technological, philosophical, and spiritual in one grand myth, he delivers a mind-blowing speculative literary saga for the modern age.
