Pyramids - Terry Pratchett - Bog - Orion Publishing Co - Plusbog.dk

A classic Discworld novel featuring Sir Terry Pratchett''s signature style and wit. A fascinating and hilarious exploration of organised religion ''An enduring, endearing presence in comic literature'' Guardian ''Look after the dead'', said the priests, ''and the dead will look after you''. Wise words in all probability, but a tall order when you have just become the pharaoh of a small and penniless country whose largesse - and indeed treasury - is unlikely to stretch to the building of a monumental pyramid to honour your dead father. And particularly when your only visible means of support is a recently acquired qualification from the Guild of Assassins where running a kingdom and basic financial acumen were not prerequisites for course entry... Readers love Pyramids : '' Clever, funny and amusing . Very familiar and yet fresh. Maybe it''s because I like mummies and ancient Egypt, I enjoyed it so much, but parody on gods and religion is very witty '' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ''Philosophically, this is the richest Discworld novel so far . . . It mounts a delightful critique of tradition and religion'' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐''Oooo, I needed that!!!! Just as exquisite and funny and inelegant as I needed it to be!!!! I LOVE this author!!!'' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ''Fantastic early largely stand-alone story in my beloved Discworld series'' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐

Dead Doubles - Trevor Barnes - Bog - Orion Publishing Co - Plusbog.dk

Dead Doubles - Trevor Barnes - Bog - Orion Publishing Co - Plusbog.dk

THE PORTLAND SPY RING was one of the most infamous espionage cases from the Cold War. People the world over were shocked when its exposure revealed the shadowy world of deep cover KGB ''illegals'' - spies operating under false identities stolen from the dead.The CIA''s revelation to MI5 in 1960 that a KGB agent was stealing crucial secrets from the world-leading submarine research base at Portland in Dorset looked initially like a dangerous but contained lapse of security by a British man and his mistress. But the couple were tailed by MI5 ''watchers'' to a covert meeting with a Canadian businessman, Gordon Lonsdale. The unsuspecting Lonsdale in turn led MI5''s spycatchers to an innocent-looking couple in suburban Ruislip called the Krogers.But within weeks the CIA rang the alarm - their critical source of intelligence was to defect within hours - and MI5 was forced to act immediately. The Krogers were exposed as two of the most important Russian ''illegals'' ever, whom the Americans had been hunting for years. And Lonsdale was no Canadian, but a senior KGB controller.This astonishing but true story of MI5''s spyhunt is straight from the world of John le Carré and is told here for the first time using hitherto secret MI5 and FBI files, private family archives and original interviews. Its tentacles stretch around the world - from America, to the USSR, Canada, New Zealand, Europe and the UK. DEAD DOUBLES is a gripping episode of Cold War history, and a case that fully justified the West''s paranoia about infiltration and treachery.

An immersive, unforgettable gem'' RACHEL CLARKE ''Propulsive, funny and filled with suspense'' SARAH LANGFORD You''re trained to save the lives of others. How far would you go to protect your own? Ruthlessly ambitious Olivia, anxious perfectionist Laura and free-spirited risk-taker Anjali couldn''t be more different. Yet their friendship, which began on the first day of medical school, has kept them inseparable for twenty-five years. As wild all-nighters and exam pressures gave way to the struggles and joys of new motherhood and intense jobs, their bond remained unbreakable. Years ago they promised that nothing would come between them and that they''d do anything for one another, including burying one night they have never spoken about: a drug-fuelled university party that forced them to make a deadly choice that could still destroy them. When an eerily similar tragedy strikes involving their teenage children, everything the three women have built threatens to shatter around them. And they are left asking: just how far can you stretch a friendship before it snaps? ''Each new twist screeches like nails on plaster'' KATHRYN MANNIX ''Where medicine meets morality... with page-turning twists'' NATHAN FILER ''Intelligent, propulsive and disturbing... I couldn''t put it down'' NIKKI SMITH ''An extraordinary book'' JOHN SUTHERLAND ''No-one writes about the drama of medicine like Christie Watson'' DR GAVIN FRANCIS

Diaspora - Greg Egan - Bog - Orion Publishing Co - Plusbog.dk

Diaspora - Greg Egan - Bog - Orion Publishing Co - Plusbog.dk

After the extinction of humans, how do you define humanity? Since the Introdus in the twenty-first century, humanity has reconfigured itself drastically. Most chose immortality, joining the polises to become conscious software. Others opted for gleisners: disposable, renewable robotic bodies that remain in contact with the physical world of force and friction. Many of these have left the solar system forever in fusion-drive starships. And there are the holdouts: the fleshers left behind in the muck and jungle of Earth-some devolved into dream apes, others cavorting in the seas or the air-while the statics and bridgers try to shape out a roughly human destiny. But the complacency of the citizens is shattered when an unforeseen disaster ravages the fleshers and reveals the possibility that the polises themselves might be at risk from bizarre astrophysical processes that seem to violate fundamental laws of nature. The orphan Yatima, a digital being grown from a mind seed, joins a group of citizens and flesher refugees in a search for the knowledge that will guarantee their safety-a search that puts them on the trail of the ancient and elusive Transmuters, who have the power to reshape subatomic particles, and to cross into the macrocosmos, where the universe we know is nothing but a speck in the higher-dimensional vacuum. Readers are having their minds blown by DIASPORA: '' Diaspora is a work of staggering imagination '' - Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐''Diaspora is one of the greatest science fiction books I have ever read. Reading it brought into my mind a sense of wonder and of sheer visceral infinity that I hadn''t felt for years'' - Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐''Absolutely stunning concepts are fired at you every couple of pages . . . Spectacular '' - Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐''Egan takes us into areas of multi-dimensional maths and wormhole physics that stretch the readers'' minds . . . all told with a clarity and skill that makes Egan one of the finest and most important writers working in SF today '' - Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐'' Totally mind-blowing sci-fi. It manages to be plausible but audaciously imaginative'' - Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐

Mort - Terry Pratchett - Bog - Orion Publishing Co - Plusbog.dk

''He is screamingly funny. He is wise. He has style'' Daily Telegraph ''His spectacular inventiveness makes the Discworld series one of the perennial joys of modern fiction'' Mail on Sunday It is known as the Discworld. It is a flat planet, supported on the backs of four elephants, who in turn stand on the back of the great turtle A''Tuin as it swims majestically through space. And it is quite possibly the funniest place in all of creation...Death comes to us all. When he came to Mort, he offered him a job.After being assured that being dead was not compulsory, Mort accepted. However, he soon found that romantic longings did not mix easily with the responsibilities of being Death''s apprentice. Terry Pratchett''s hilarious fourth Discworld novel established once and for all that Death really is a laughing matter... Readers can''t get enough of Mort: '' This book was so good that if I knew the way to Sheepridge, I''d be heading there next Hogswatch Eve hoping to be chosen as DEATH''s next apprentice . . . This book is laugh out loud , want to read the funny bit to someone (anyone) funny, it is witty, very witty, cleverly witty, it is deceptively simple, but wonderfully complex, an enigma, a dichotomy. Oh ok it is bloody good and outrageously funny, just read it '' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐'' This was the very first Discworld novel I''ve ever read . . . It became instantly dear to me, prompting me to immediately buy the English original and reading it once again, but I had almost forgotten just HOW GOOD this was . After this re-read it is clear that it shall remain one of my all-time favourite books '' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐'' The story itself is simple to follow , what makes this book so incredible is the fantastic descriptions of the way this universe works and the different realities and places and people . . . I didn''t want to leave this world and I will definitely be returning soon! '' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐''The fourth Discworld novel is right up there with my favourites . . . it''s fun to watch [Death] stretch his legs a little, witness Pratchett pushing the character in interesting and imaginative directions and without a shadow of a doubt the best conversations involve the grinning skeleton with the sparkle in his eye . . . If you''re wondering where to start with the incredibly large body of work that makes up the Discworld then this is the one I suggest '' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐
