DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn this collection, 26 stories chronicle deep metamorphosis, where by a lesson, a journey, discoveries, the confluence of ideas, an accident or some other more esoteric circumstances, we become more attuned to the connections - and distances - between the inner and outer worlds than perhaps we were at the beginning. We grow wings, take flight, and start all over again.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKFive years after the Geriatric Brigade’s departure from Earth, a new generation Antarean Mothership has returned. The crew, made up of Antareans and Brigade members, was on a dual mission to extract the sleeping cocooned Antarean army and deliver a wondrous cargo, which included twenty-two pregnant Brigade female “seniors” and one young pregnant Penditan bride to give birth on Earth. The physical processing that had prepared the Geriatric Brigade for deep space travel had stopped, and then slowly reversed, the physiological mechanics of human aging. Among deep space travelers there exists one overriding directive regarding the birth of interplanetary offspring, especially those of a “mixed mating.” This directive requires that these Brigade mothers-to-be return to Earth to give birth. While the cocooned Antarean army was extracted from their secret underwater chamber, the children of the Geriatric Brigade were born. Even as infants, it was clear that the children of the Geriatric Brigade were evolved—a new race possessing new and extraordinary powers. But how these wondrous gifts would affect the children, and their future, was still unknown. Metamorphosis is the sequel to the New York Times bestselling Cocoon trilogy and continues where Cocoon left off—keeping you hooked from the first page and never letting go. Skyhorse Publishing, under our Night Shade and Talos imprints, is proud to publish a broad range of titles for readers interested in science fiction (space opera, time travel, hard SF, alien invasion, near-future dystopia), fantasy (grimdark, sword and sorcery, contemporary urban fantasy, steampunk, alternative history), and horror (zombies, vampires, and the occult and supernatural), and much more. While not every title we publish becomes a New York Times bestseller, a national bestseller, or a Hugo or Nebula award-winner, we are committed to publishing quality books from a diverse group of authors.
