Kurt Vonnegut's first novel spins the chilling tale of engineer Paul Proteus, who must find a way to live in a world dominated by a supercomputer and run completely by machines. Paul's rebellion is vintage Vonnegut – wildly funny, deadly serious, and terrifyingly close to reality.

What happens when the haggling is done and the shops are closed? When the quest has been given, the steeds saddled, and the adventurers are off to their next encounter? They keep the world running, the food cooked, and the horses shoed, yet what adventurer has ever spared a thought or concern for the Non-Player Characters? In the town of Maplebark, four such NPCs settle in for a night of actively ignoring the adventurers drinking in the tavern when things go quickly and fatally awry.

Confessions of an Ageing Tennis Player is the guidebook that navigates dreams and disappointments, failures and triumphs—a satirical mid-life-crisis handbook for everyone who has never quite fulfilled their fantasies, on the tennis court or anywhere else. This is the story of a man of a certain age who has never quite moved on from his youthful fantasies as he goes from sporting zero to sporting hero. And back again. Set against the backdrop of Wimbledon in 2013 when Andy Murray was the first British player to win the championship for decades, unsurprisingly, ‘Andy’ makes an appearance.

Unwritten in the annals of the sporting world is the story of a man with unlimited potential who was denied his rightful place in the lore of golf...It is a story that might never have been told had Charley Hunter not accepted a summer internship at Butler & Yates, a prestigious Atlanta law firm. Bobby Jones, the legendary amateur golfer, had once been a partner at the firm and his old legal files had been severely neglected over the years.

There's a certain percentage of women who've never experienced the big O. I happen to be one of them. When I confide that in my two best friends, they decide I can't go a moment longer without experiencing it. Next thing I know, they've signed me up for a dating app that's sure to get me all my jollies and then some. I'm not so sure. With a bar to run, a venture-capitalist partner telling me how to run it, and a past that makes my present difficult day to day, adding any kind of relationship—temporary or not—to that is a complication I just don't need.

I, Tillie Jean Rock, am not in love with my brother’s teammate. Sure, he might have those biceps and that “I am the grouchiest of grouchy bears” smolder, and he might shovel snow off his driveway next door wearing nothing but boxer shorts and rubber boots, and he might be running a side business feeding all the stray goats in town, but studliness is only skin-deep.

Hi, I'm Player Zero and welcome to the Metaverse. I was part of a Virtual Reality gaming experiment that's gone horribly wrong and I've been pulled inside the game. The Metaverse is a hub where all the game worlds collide. I have to try to find my way to the end of the game and how to get back to the real world. With the help of my friends Roman the Tutorial Robot and Johnny Chaotic (The Glitch), we traverse from one game to the next to find our way through all the dangers (and laughs) this world provides.
