A short story about Earth in a distant of maybe not so distant future, space travel, omnipotent AI and the alien world. And, of course, about the eternal philosophical questions of life.
Pirmā mīlestība — tā ir tik gaiša, godbijīga, iekārojama, un to var sagraut viens neuzmanīgs pārkāpums. Kā pārdzīvot nodevību un noticēt, ka ar to dzīve nebeidzas? Kā palikt dzīvam, kad sirds ir saplēsta? Otrā mīlestība kā likteņa dāvana, kas palīdzēs sadziedēt brūces uz sirds un liks noticēt, ka laime vēl var būt. Taču atkal viens neuzmanīgs pārpratums iznīcina visu, ko mūsu varone tik rūpīgi glabāja savā atdzimušajā sirdī. Un kā pārdzīvot jaunu nodevību? Un kā noticēt, ka pēc kārtējās...
Jauna talantīga zinātniece, dizainere, kosmosa staciju izstrādātāja, satiek noslēpumaino profesoru Stockeru. Ne daudzi cilvēki, kas mūsdienu pasaulē nedzīvo slikti, var domāt ne tikai par savas eksistences galīgumu, bet arī par visas civilizācijas iespējamo nāvi. Entuziastu grupa cenšas glābt pasauli no nenovēršamas iznīcības, izvēršot virtuālu globālu programmu "Kupols", kuras mērķis ir apvienot cilvēci. Bet vai globāla mēroga meli novedīs pie glābšanas?
Brīnišķīgi, kad ilgi gaidītais noslēpuma atklājums nokrīt tieši tev klēpī, lai gan Irisai bija jādodas uz akadēmiju kopā ar brāli, bet viņš viņu pameta pirmajā dienā un aizbrauca. Taču viņai "paveicās" sastapt pūķus, kuri kļuva par potenciālām durvīm viņai un viņas draudzenei uz viņu slēgto impēriju. Un varbūt tas viss nebija nejaušība? Un šī iespēja kādam maksāja daudz pārdomu, pāris sakostus nagus un ticību brīnumiem? Bet ko darīt, kad imperatora brāļadēls, ieraugot raganu, vicina pūķa asti,...
Katram pūķim ir vajadzīga Ēna, lai paliktu cilvēks un valdītu. Dimanta pūķis apgalvo, ka es esmu viņa Ēna. Draud, ka nekad mani neatlaidīs. Ar maģiju pat pieķēdēja mani, un tagad es esmu viņa gūsteknis. Taču es atradīšu ceļu mājās, jo man ir palicis kaut kas ļoti svarīgs. Daļa manas sirds, bez kuras es nevaru izdzīvot. Ja tas nozīmē ieviest kārtību pūķu valdījumā, es esmu gatavs to darīt. Lai maģiskais zobens man palīdz!
Es esmu iegājusi pūķu pasaulē, un katram no tiem ir vajadzīga Ēna, lai paliktu cilvēks un valdītu. Safīra pūķis apgalvo, ka es esmu viņa Ēna. Draud, ka nekad mani neatlaidīs, un uz visiem laikiem aizliedz man doties prom no šīs alas. Tādus cilvēkus kā es šeit ienīst un soda ar nāvi. Es nekļūšu viņa gūsteknis, mani nesalauzīs! Varbūt viņš runās citādi, kad zinās, ka manā rokā ir viņa burvju ierocis. Un, neskatoties uz viņa naidīgumu un neizpratni, viņu pievelk pie manis. Bet vissliktākais ir tas,...

«Казка про Добромола» — це веселий і водночас сумний сатиричний гротеск на нашу сучасність, що цілком органічний у творчій палітрі відомого державного діяча і письменника Олександра Турчинова.

Ця книга-пересторога адресується широкому колу читачів.
Lucius Shepard is a grand master of dark fantasy, famed for his baroque yet utterly contemporary visions of existential subversion and hallucinatory collapse. In Dagger Key, his fifth major story collection, Shepard confronts hard-bitten loners and self-deceiving operators with the shadowy emptiness within themselves and the insinuating darkness without, to ends sardonic and terrifying. The stories in this book, including six novellas (one original to this volume) are: “Stars Seen Through...

One "zombie", victim of a bizarre scientific obsession, breaks away, leaving a trail of muder and miracle as he flees the Project and the horror his "life" hasbecome. Green Eyes is a book that has no respect for genre. Throughout its course, the novel spans the whole of the nebulous speculative fiction genre, taking on the appearance of science fiction, fantasy and horror all in turn. Perhaps the best way to describe...
