What if you really had to start again from scratch? After saving Earth for the second time, Josie thought she finally had time to deal with personal business. But a booby trap in the Greenstar's engines meant she really got away from it all. Trapped in a featureless void, with only the Greenstar’s crew and an equally odd interloper for company, she discovers that even being the first woman in a new universe won't protect her from having to solve everyone else's problems.
Josie Stein saved humanity and they hate her for it. Josie foiled a scheming, homicidal AI. She saved the Earth from the Kalmari. But nothing is good enough for Burger Supreme: they think a ray forcing everyone to have a conscience is a bad thing. Dispatching Vesta Hartman, a captain with two itchy trigger fingers and everything to prove, Burger Supreme want the Greenstar brought to justice at any cost. Even if it means turning it to powder first. Pursued relentlessly, Josie is faced with impossible choices: run and spend an eternity with Pol, or try to redeem the Greenstar before Vesta catches them.
Humanity’s best hope is a wicker spaceship. Josie Stein woke up a thousand years in the future and was immediately elected captain of the U.F.S. Greenstar, a recycled spaceship on a mission to stop the self-destructive aliens of the galaxy from wiping themselves out. Now the Kalmari, a homicidal race of aliens, have set their sights on Earth. How can the ramshackle Greenstar possibly stand in their way? A fun and fast-paced episodic season of stories that will have you laughing out loud. Find out just how weird the future can get.
The problem with a eco-friendly spaceship is that it tends to shed. Like the science-fiction serials it pays homage to, Greenstar generated promotional content and deleted scenes. Greenstar Special Features gathers them all in one place, so you don't have to risk the lower decks in search of the BetaSnax Story-in-a-Pill versions. Curious what happened to Bao Lei when the ship visited Plankton Station in Season One? 'Rescuing Bao Lei' reveals all the events that we couldn't show. Wondering about Pol's attempts to retake the captiancy? 'Pol's Holotainement Revolution' details another crazy scheme that we couldn't quite squeeze into Season Two. Want to know what the Land of Nod trapped Connor in during Season Three? 'Connor and the Humansters' fills in the adventures we had to cut from Season Three. Looking for more on the history of Greenstar before Josie joined the crew? The first set of Crew Diaries reveal Pol's purchase of the Greenstar and recruitment of the original crew. All this content and more in this collection of four short stories and three sets of crew diaries.
Some people are born to advantage, privilege. Edmond was born to village idiots who put all his skill points into Luck. They knew an opportunity to win the lottery when they saw it. Edmond doesn’t want to be a winning ticket. He dreams of becoming a great hero and scholar. Impossible goals when your Intelligence and Wisdom stats couldn’t be lower. Is Edmond nothing but a walking rabbit’s foot? Will his parents’ dreams of easy fortune come true? It’s all just a lucky roll away.
On Earth, life held for him only the fate of a recluse--confined to daydreams and the lore of ancient wonders but apparently destined never to share them--until he found the formula that let him cross space to the world of the Green Star. There, appearing in the body of a fabled hero, he is to experience all that his heroid fantasies had yearned for. A princess to be saved . . . an invader to be thwarted . . . and otherworldly monsters to be faced! A thrilling adventure in the grand tradition of Edgar Rice Burroughs, as only Lin Carter can tell it! This edition includes an afterword by Lin Carter.
How to Regain and Retain Your Health by Tony Akinyemi Among the creatures walking the face of the earth, none has encountered more complications than humans when it comes to matters regarding health. This is because, humans, with the advent of civilization, have become 'experts' at altering the pristine course for healthy living, the cause of anatomical and psychological complications that are unheard of anywhere else in the animal kingdom. How to Regain and Retain your Health: A Primer on Healthy Living by Tony Akinyemi presents a holistic approach to addressing health conflicts that have today compromised human potential for optimum health, as well as ideas that challenge the blind alleys of traditional medicine and healthcare practiced all over the world.
