Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - In the remote mountain town of Bellmare Ridge, every morning begins the same way: with the clear, steady call of a bugle echoing down fir-covered slopes. It is more than a military signal. It is the town's clock, its prayer, its unspoken promise of order.Private Min Yun, the young bugler stationed above the ridge, plays with a devotion that borders on the sacred. His notes set bread rising, children waking, and old men breathing easier. But one winter morning, the bugle does not sound.Silence fractures the town.As Yun vanishes into the forest, Bellmare Ridge begins to unravel. Routine falters. Superstition creeps in. The land itself seems to listen-and respond. A quiet artist named Lina senses that the loss is deeper than a missing soldier, and that the forest may be holding more than echoes.Part literary fable, part atmospheric mystery, The Last Bugle explores how fragile harmony can be, and how renewal rarely comes through restoring the old rhythm-but by daring to hear a new one.A haunting novel about music, memory, and the invisible threads that bind a community to the land beneath its feet.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Book I: Puabi, the Last Oracle opens not with discovery, but with disturbance.Beneath the sun-baked ruins of Ur, where centuries of dust have learned to lie convincingly still, a satellite scan reveals an anomaly no map remembers. Dr. Leila Sadeghi-archaeologist, skeptic, reluctant heir to no myth-joins an elite excavation team expecting ritual artifacts and academic glory. What they uncover instead is a sealed sub-chamber untouched since 2600 BCE, its stones blackened as if night itself were mortared into place.At its center lies a sigil carved into obsidian-neither language nor ornament, but something that resists naming. When Leila takes a forbidden rubbing, the past answers. Visions follow: a red moon, blood poured with intention, a queen who does not kneel before gods but bargains with them. Queen Puabi, long celebrated for her splendor, emerges instead as something far more dangerous-an oracle who chose to become a lock.As the excavation descends, so does Leila. A student vanishes. Bodies are found arranged in spirals that defy funerary logic. Leonard Woolley's sealed not Elektronisches Buch resurface in London, warning across time: Do not let the rosette be turned. And in dreams not her own, Leila speaks fluent Sumerian-words meant to bind, not bless.Pursued by a clandestine order devoted to forgotten moon goddesses, Leila learns the sigil is not inert. It listens. It remembers. And it responds to blood. Genetic evidence reveals a lineage no modern map should contain, tying Leila irrevocably to the queen beneath the sand. Vessel to vessel. Seal to seal.As rituals long denied begin to stir, Leila must confront an unbearable truth: Puabi did not die to protect her people. She endured-holding something the gods abandoned, something that still presses against the walls of time.The question is no longer what lies buried beneath Ur.It is what will happen when the seal-cracked by curiosity, ambition, and fate-finally decides to open.And somewhere, beneath dunes that shift but never forget, the oracle waits-awake, watching, and no longer willing to remain silent.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Book I - Part 1-1Chapters 1-10Beneath the ocean, civilization travels through glass no thicker than a garden hose.When a major transpacific submarine cable suddenly falls silent, governments dismiss it as a technical malfunction. But as outages spread across financial markets, military systems, satellite coordination networks, and coastal landing stations, a terrifying truth begins to surface: Someone is deliberately severing the world's invisible lifelines.Far from political summits and media headlines, the aging repair vessel Pelican Dawn is dispatched into dangerous waters. Commanded by the exhausted but respected Captain Elias Vey, the volunteer crew of engineers, divers, and maritime specialists races to restore connections before global panic spirals out of control.Among them are Hana Seo, a brilliant fiber-optic systems engineer uncovering impossible signal anomalies; Mateo Ruiz, a saturation diver haunted by a previous deep-sea disaster; Naomi Mercer, a cybersecurity strategist tracing ghost traffic hidden beneath normal outages; and investigative journalist Idris Vale, who suspects the world is witnessing the opening moves of a hidden war.As violent storms gather over the Pacific and evidence of sabotage emerges from the abyss, the crew realizes the attacks are neither random nor isolated. Autonomous systems move unseen beneath the waves. Insurance markets begin collapsing. Coastal stations fall silent. And scattered repair crews across the world start answering a desperate call for assistance.What begins as emergency maintenance becomes a race to prevent the unraveling of modern civilization itself.Cold, atmospheric, and frighteningly plausible, Pelican Squad Agenda: Saboteurs of the Abyss blends maritime realism, geopolitical tension, and high-stakes technological suspense in the tradition of The Hunt for Red October, The Abyss, and Michael Crichton-style techno-thrillers.The ocean keeps receipts.And the abyss is beginning to answer back.…

Neuware - Book I - Part 1-2Chapters 11-20The outages were only the beginning.Now the ocean is fighting back.As global communications continue to fracture, the crew of the Pelican Dawn enters a far more dangerous phase of the crisis.

Entire transatlantic routes collapse without warning. Arctic corridors become contested territory. Unmarked black-hull ships appear near critical infrastructure before vanishing into storms and ice fog.For Captain Elias Vey and the multinational volunteers of Pelican Squad, repair missions are no longer acts of maintenance.They are acts of survival.Mateo Ruiz struggles against mounting psychological pressure as memories from a previous North Atlantic disaster resurface during increasingly dangerous deep-sea descents. Hana Seo uncovers evidence that the sabotage systems may be adapting in real time. Naomi Mercer traces disturbing patterns buried inside autonomous coordination networks, suggesting the attacks are no longer fully controlled by human operators.Meanwhile, oceanographer Dr. Leila Soren discovers something impossible beneath the seabed: Hidden installations buried under sediment.Machinery operating without ownership.Signals emerging from the darkness below the cables themselves.As communication delays isolate nations and panic spreads through civilian populations, the fragile illusion of global stability begins to crack. Flights drift off synchronization. Hospitals lose access to remote systems. Financial institutions race to contain cascading failures while governments suppress growing evidence of infrastructure warfare.And scattered through forgotten ports and aging harbors, whispers continue to spread about an older maritime brotherhood known only as: The Last Matroos Network.Retired repair captains, harbor machinists, analog navigators, cable sailors, and independent divers quietly begin mobilizing across the world's coastlines-human continuity rising against algorithmic sabotage.From Arctic ice shelves to black-water shipping lanes, from seabed graveyards to rogue AI coordination systems, Book I - Part 1-2 expands the Pelican Squad saga into a vast and chilling portrait of a civilization discovering how vulnerable its invisible foundations truly are.Cold, atmospheric, and frighteningly plausible, this second movement of the Pelican Squad epic deepens the series' signature blend of industrial realism, maritime suspense, geopolitical tension, and abyssal mystery in the tradition of Das Boot, The Abyss, Sicario, and Tom Clancy-style techno-thrillers.Because the deeper humanity descends into the abyss-the more the abyss begins to watch back.…
