Wanderers: A Novel <b>A decadent rock star. A deeply religious radio host. A disgraced scientist. And a teenage girl who may be the world’s last hope. From the mind of Chuck Wendig comes “a magnum opus . . . a story about survival that’s not just about you and me, but all of us, together” (<i>Kirkus Reviews</i>, starred review).</b><br /><br /><b>NOMINATED FOR THE BRAM STOKER AWARD • NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY <i>The Washington Post </i>• NPR • <i>The Guardian</i> • <i>Kirkus Reviews </i>• <i>Publishers Weekly </i>• <i>Library Journal </i>• <i>Polygon</i></b><br /><br /> Shana wakes up one morning to discover her little sister in the grip of a strange malady. She appears to be sleepwalking. She cannot talk and cannot be woken up. And she is heading with inexorable determination to a destination that only she knows. But Shana and her sister are not alone. Soon they are joined by a flock of sleepwalkers from across America, on the same mysterious journey. And like Shana, there are other “shepherds” who follow the flock to protect their friends and family on the long dark road ahead.<br /><br />For as the sleepwalking phenomenon awakens terror and violence in America, the real danger may not be the epidemic but the fear of it. With society collapsing all around them—and an ultraviolent militia threatening to exterminate them—the fate of the sleepwalkers depends on unraveling the mystery behind the epidemic. The terrifying secret will either tear the nation apart—or bring the survivors together to remake a shattered world.<br /><br /><b>In development for TV by Glen Mazzara, executive producer of <i>The Walking Dead</i> • Look for the sequel in 2022<br /><br /></b> “This career-defining epic deserves its inevitable comparisons to Stephen King’s <i>The Stand</i>.”<b>—<i>Publishers Weekly</i> (starred review)</b><br /><br /> “A suspenseful, twisty, satisfying, surprising, thought-provoking epic.”<b>—Harlan Coben,<i> </i>#1<i> New York Times </i>bestselling author of<i> Run Away</i></b><br /><br /> “A true tour de force.”<b>—Erin Morgenstern, <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of <i>The Night Circus</i><br /></b><br /> “A masterpiece with prose as sharp and heartbreaking as <i>Station Eleven</i>.”<b>—Peng Shepherd, author of <i>The Book of M</i></b><br /><br /> “A magnum opus . . .

And, this time, one of them must die. Vultures is a heart-pounding conclusion to the series: “Think <i>Six Feet Under</i> cowritten by Stephen King and Chuck Palahniuk” (<i>SFX</i>). The Raptor & the Wren (Miriam Black Book 5) <b>In the fifth book of the “wildly entertaining” (<i>Kirkus Reviews</i>) Miriam Black series, Miriam continues her journey to find answers on how to change her fate and begin to make right some of what she’s done wrong.</b><br /><br />Armed with new knowledge that suggests a great sacrifice must be made to change her fate, Miriam continues her quest and learns that she must undo the tragedies of her past to move forward.<br /> <br />One such tragedy is Wren, who is now a teen caught up in a bad relationship with the forces that haunt Miriam and has become a killer, just like Miriam.

Ryan Stradal<br /><br /> </b><i>In an age of space exploration, we search to find ourselves.</i><b><br /> </b> <br /> In four years, aerospace giant Prime Space will put the first humans on Mars. Helen Kane, Yoshihiro Tanaka, and Sergei Kuznetsov must prove they’re the crew for the historic voyage by spending seventeen months in the most realistic simulation ever created. Constantly observed by Prime Space’s team of "Obbers," Helen, Yoshi, and Sergei must appear ever in control. But as their surreal pantomime progresses, each soon realizes that the complications of inner space are no less fraught than those of outer space. The borders between what is real and unreal begin to blur, and each astronaut is forced to confront demons past and present, even as they struggle to navigate their increasingly claustrophobic quarters—and each other. <br /><br /> Astonishingly imaginative, tenderly comedic, and unerringly wise, <i>The Wanderers</i> explores the differences between those who go and those who stay, telling a story about the desire behind all exploration: the longing for discovery and the great search to understand the human heart.

This is the second book in the Miriam Black series.<br /> <br />“Visceral and often brutal, this tale vibrates with emotional rawness that helps to paint a bleak, unrelenting picture of life on the edge.” —<i>Publishers Weekly</i></b><br /><br />Miriam is trying. Really, she is. But this whole “settling down thing” just isn’t working out.<br /> <br />She lives on Long Beach Island all year in a run-down, double-wide trailer. She works at a grocery store as a checkout girl. And her relationship with Louis—who’s on the road half the time in his truck—is subject to the mood swings Miriam brings to everything she does. It just isn’t going well.<br /> <br />Still, she’s keeping her psychic ability—to see when and how someone is going to die just by touching them—in check. But even that feels wrong somehow. Like she’s keeping a tornado stopped up in a tiny bottle. Then comes the one bad day that turns it all on her ear. Blackbirds (Miriam Black Book 1) <b>The first book in the Miriam Black series: “A sassy, hard-boiled thriller with a paranormal slant” (<i>The Guardian</i>) about a young woman who can see the darkest corners of the future.</b><br /><br />Miriam Black knows how you’re going to die. This makes her daily life a living hell, especially when you can’t do anything about it, or stop trying to. She’s foreseen hundreds of car crashes, heart attacks, strokes, and suicides. She merely needs to touch you—skin to skin contact—and she knows how and when your final moments will occur. Miriam has given up trying to save people; that only makes their deaths happen. But when she hitches a ride with Louis Darling and shakes his hand, she sees in thirty days that Louis will be murdered while he calls her name— Louis will die because he met her, and Miriam will be the next victim. No matter what she does she can’t save Louis. But if she wants to stay alive, she’ll have to try.<br /> <br /> “Think <i>Six Feet Under</i> co-written by Stephen King and Chuck Palahniuk” (<i>SFX</i>), and you have <i>Blackbirds</i>: a visceral, exciting novel about life on the edge.

The would-be cyberspies discover that behind the scenes lurks a sinister NSA program, an artificial intelligence code-named Typhon, that has origins and an evolution both dangerous and disturbing.
