"It's a short story about the right answer to the right question, about lies about society, about everything in the human lifestyle. I was developed as an author reading books of American sci-fi of the '60s, the golden age of English sci-fi short stories. So the story is somehow referred to that time. And probably at the right time, the story would have become famous back then. Unfortunately, I was born a bit later, and nowadays, a few read those great masters who earned their "Nebulas" and "Hugos". My "Hugo" and "Nebula" won't come. Too late.

Liara T'soni did not believe in luck. After all that had happened, what she believed in was redundancy. With the Reapers on the way, she didn't put all her hope in her lover. Most of it? Yes. But not all.... more>>

Some plans, she told others about. Such as her preparation of knowledge repositories. Time capsules for the next cycle, intended to prepare future species for the Reapers. Others, she told no one about. Sponsoring the Andromeda initiative was one such effort, as it would ensure that some of their species would be far beyond the reach of the Reapers. She told no one, so that no one would ever know to follow them in the first place.

But...there were other projects, ones she didn't mention to anyone. Not out of security concerns, but because they were utterly absurd. Shots in the dark, mystical gobbly-gook, things she didn't expect to work but threw a few million meaningless credits at...just in case. So when the sacrificial guinea pig of one such experiment finds themself waking up in their younger body, years before the Reaper invasion? Well, that was one no one was expecting to work. Unfortunately, the person that went back wasn't the one that was meant to. Fortunately? That person was Oriana Lawson... <<less

***

It has been a month since the events in the Great Crater of Paldea, and Arven is still struggling to accept what AI Sada told him and his friends. A chance encounter with the Legendary Pokémon Miraidon encourages him to use its powers to re-open the time machine and send them back to the time of Paradox Pokémon, where they find the young but mysterious android.

All Sada wants is for Arven to have a mother's love. After a trip through time to the future, she is given the gift to bring her son to her; only this gift proves to be nothing more than something that wants to steal her humanity.

At the end of the day, Sada's fate does not rest with the human emotions but Arven's struggle against his infrared. Will he accept Professor Sada's fate, or will the Mastermind of Deception pull him and AI Sada apart before they can call themselves mother and son?

Efforts at communicating with marine mammals such as... more>> whales and dolphins whose brains are larger than our own have had very limited success to date, less so than the success we've enjoyed in teaching some gorillas and chimpanzees to communicate using sign language although their brains have less capacity than our own.

When a dedicated marine biologist/linguist makes a breakthrough in the near future that allows true communication to take place, what rewards may we expect from her research, and what might our aquatic cousins learn about us and teach us about ourselves? <<less

In 2036, an eccentric billionaire funded humanity’s first trip to Mars as an ego project. That expedition made the most significant discovery in human history: proof of extraterrestrial life.

Almost a century later, humanity has shown that despite their use of advanced technology, some things haven’t changed. Greed and xenophobia still run rampant amongst the stars, and wars are common between humanity’s dozens of extrasolar colonies.

Kayden is a recently discharged military pilot, just trying to make his way in the big universe. Fortunately for him, he’s about to stumble upon humanity’s next great discovery – one that could have an even more profound impact on the course of human history than finding the Mars outpost.

Trillion wasn’t expecting to have her mind uploaded into a spaceship today. But it happened and now there’s no turning back for her and three others.
The four of them now travel through space, looking for new worlds to terraform - looking to build A New Eden.

Should I read this book?:
YES. If you like a good sci-fi space adventure that’s a mix of action/mystery/thriller/science. No ‘lit-RPG’ here.

Above all, is their friendship going to survive the calamity? <<less
