Book Description
Chasing the Phoenix: a science fiction masterpiece from a five-time Hugo Award winner Michael Swanwick! In the distant future, Surplus arrives in China dressed as a Mongolian shaman, leading a yak which carries the corpse of his friend, Darger. The old high-tech world has long since collapsed, and the artificial intelligences that ran it are outlawed and destroyed. Or so it seems. Darger and Surplus, a human and a genetically engineered dog with human intelligence who walks upright, are a pair of con men and the heroes of a series of prior Swanwick stories. They travel to what was once China and invent a scam to become rich and powerful. Pretending to have limited super-powers, they aid an ambitious local warlord who dreams of conquest and once again reuniting China under one ruler. And, against all odds, it begins to work, but it seems as if there are other forces at work behind the scenes. Chasing the Phoenix is a sharp, slick, witty science fiction adventure that is hugely entertaining from Michael Swanwick, one of the best SF writers alive. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Book Description
THE GREATEST WESTERN WRITER OF THE 21ST CENTURY In his authentic, powerfully told tales of the American frontier, William W. Johnstone has defined the Western hero and established an action-packed series that ranks among the bestselling in print. In this rugged new novel, Johnstone sets his sights on the one place that was too wild even for the Wild West . . . No Man’s Land Kansas doesn’t want it. Neither does Texas. The 35-mile wide strip of land destined to become the Oklahoma panhandle is a place unlike any other on the frontier: with no laws, no rules, and a powerful attraction for killers, looters, and fugitives. Frank Morgan, a gunfighter feared by all and hated by some, has been warned to stay the hell out of “the strip.” But warnings never did work well on Morgan, and he’s more determined than ever to stay—when an ambush nearly takes his life. Soon, in a remote cabin in the heart of No Man’s Land, Morgan will wake up to discover that he has just cause and a burning need to go out and fight. All he lacks is an ally—in a place where all his enemies want him dead . . .
