Publisher's summary
Wer hält sich heutzutage nicht alles für klug? Jugendliche mit dem neusten Smartphone-Modell, Studenten mit mangelhaften Schreib- und Rechenkenntnissen, Pseudo-Besserwisser mit Internet-Zugang zu besonders wahren Informationen, Verschwörungspraktiker mit Spezial-Wissen über globale Machtstrukturen, populistische Politiker, die schamlos an die niederen Instinkte (wie bspw. Patriotismus) der Bürger appellieren, aber andersrum gefragt – wer hält sich selber für dumm? Kurze Zwischenfrage: Sind wir nicht alle ein bisschen Schildbürger? Diese "Schildbürger“ sind ein regionales Landes-Häuflein, deren männliche Mitglieder den höchsten Grad der Klugheit und Weisheit erlangt haben und damit einen Status, der jegliche Kritik an ihren Ansichten ausschließt. Da sich deren Ehefrauen darüber beschweren, dass ihre Männer in fremden Ländern als Ratgeber arbeiten, kehren die Schildbürger für einen Tag zurück und fassen ihren Frauen zuliebe einen interessanten Beschluss. Sie beschließen ihre Weisheit durch Nachahmen (scheinbar) närrischer Handlungen zu vertuschen, doch leider lässt sich jegliches Verhalten und jegliche noch so absurde Idee durch den Aufbau entsprechender Argumentationsstränge rechtfertigen und dadurch relativieren. So bauen sie ein fensterloses Rathaus, versuchen das Licht mit Eimern und Schüsseln einzufangen, lassen sämtliche Bücher aus anderen Ländern verbieten und kommen auf den grandiosen Gedanken, ihre Wirtschaftsbasis zu 100% auf regionale Füße zu stellen. Sie vergessen, dass man sich selber nur durch Andere und Anderes verstehen kann. Um die totale Sicherheit zu gewährleisten wird die Gesetzgebung angepasst, was dazu führt, dass alle Einwohner Schildas als Verbrecher eingestuft und von sich selbst inhaftiert werden. Nach einem kollektiven Ausbruch erreicht die kleingeistige Verherrlichung der eigenen Meinungen und Überzeugungen ihren Höhepunkt und die Schildbürger werden vom geistigen Gift des Patriotismus zum Krieg mobilisiert...

Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 4,653
It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide. Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars. Now, he's sure he'll be the first person to die there. After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he’s alive - and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive. But Mark isn't ready to give up yet.

Inheriting your uncle's supervillain business is more complicated than you might think. Particularly when you discover who's running the place. Charlie's life is going nowhere fast. A divorced substitute teacher living with his cat in a house his siblings want to sell, all he wants is to open a pub downtown, if only the bank will approve his loan. Then his long-lost uncle Jake dies and leaves his supervillain business (complete with island volcano lair) to Charlie. But becoming a supervillain isn't all giant laser death rays and lava pits.
