Lightning! Tentacles! Zeppelins! War rages. The dreaded Empire of Octung has taken everything from Dr. Francis Avery. His wife. His daughter. His life. Now, serving as doctor aboard a whaling ship far out on the Atomic Sea, he pulls a mysterious woman named Layanna from the lightning-wreathed depths. Somehow she’s alive, unharmed by the toxins . . . and she knows a way to stop Octung. Avery decides to aid her, even if it means taking on spies, monsters, enemy armies and all the terrors of a nightmarish world. It’s been a thousand years since the terrifying Atomic Sea has grown to encompass nearly every body of salt water on the planet, killing or mutating all it touches. Its contamination has transformed the world, but the reason for the change remains unknown—except to the Empire of Octung, the country making war on the world. Somehow the Empire is connected to the source of the mystery. But how? The Atomic Sea is the first volume in an exciting, globe-spanning series by New York Times bestselling author Jack Conner. With the grand scope of Dune or Lord of the Rings, The Atomic Sea series is an atmospheric thrill-ride in a world unlike any you've ever imagined.

"Brilliant! Every chapter holds a twist you can't see coming. Fast moving and worth the reading ride." Chernobyl contaminated Europe. Fukushima irradiated Japan. And now ... Broome? Worm Turning nuclear waste plant is fast-tracked on sacred ground near Broome, in Australia's wild north-west. A certain Great Power says it'll take all responsibility. Sadly it's lying. Life ashore becomes surprisingly threatening for scientist Lena and hacker Jessie, and their only refuge is Simon's old lugger. Sadly he's lying too. An eerie blue boat turns up with a glowing cargo, Worm Turning's gala night is a disaster, and a cyclone called Cyril is on the move. And when a lethal warship pursues the lugger to an ancient land of carved red rocks, Lena discovers a committee isn't her worst nightmare after all.

It is 1943, and 11-year-old Dewey Kerrigan is traveling west on a train to live with her scientist father—but no one, not her father nor the military guardians who accompany her, will tell her exactly where he is. When she reaches Los Alamos, New Mexico, she learns why: he's working on a top secret government program. Over the next few years, Dewey gets to know eminent scientists, starts tinkering with her own mechanical projects, becomes friends with a budding artist who is as much of a misfit as she is—and, all the while, has no idea how the Manhattan Project is about to change the world. This book's fresh prose and fascinating subject are like nothing you've read before. Everyone who deals with middle-grade kids — parents, teacher, librarians — is busy answering questions about a movie they have heard so much about, but are too young to see. Green Glass Sea will answer their questions and more.

Have you ever looked up into the night sky or maybe seen outer space through the lens of the Hubble telescope and asked yourself, Is there life out there? If the universe is that vast, why are we the only planet with life? Or maybe you had a fall. For instance, it may have been the death of a loved one, a divorce, bankruptcy, or another major setback that brought you to the point of asking, What am I doing? Why am I here? What is this for? These questions have been the driving force behind decades of research. We are satisfied that within the covers of this book, those questions have been answered. You are embarking on a universal journey—from an explanation of what fills space to how worlds are made; what consciousness is and how it becomes man; how we are all immortal, spiritual beings; and finally, the true significance behind our existence.
