Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. When Earth collapses, a desperate colonisation mission carries humanity's last hope across the void. Among the crew is Ye-Min, the mission's astronomer - and the first to understand that the new world is not empty.Waiting for them is an apex species: chemically powerful, alien, humane in its own logic, and intelligent enough to recognise humans as an existential threat. Their response is decisive. The crew's minds are reduced to primitive instinct and manipulated into a tribal existence where they worship a false god they call Hexibarber.As weather shifts violently and hidden forces move in the dark, Ye-Min - newly awakened and fighting to reclaim her intelligence - begins to uncover a larger design: abandoned machines acting strangely, unexplained experiments in hidden places, and a native species preparing a future in which humans may have a role. or become prey.To survive, Ye-Min must navigate a world shaped by the Alloy, a universal element binding life, memory, and physics itself.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In an alternate World War I, the Great War has raged for nine relentless years. Trenches havebecome nations, and sanity has become currency. Amid the ruins of Europe, a German professordiscovers an Elixir-a substance capable of reshaping human thought and awakening somethingancient in the human genome.As the conflict grinds toward oblivion, Private Sam Cowan, a drafted soldier, and Sergeant FrankFieldlight, the last survivor of his Australian division, struggle against both the savagery of war andthe transformation of the mind itself. When an Allied war correspondent uncovers Fieldlight'sdesperate intent, the Elixir's influence begins to spread-first through command, then throughspecies.Powder for Drying Wounds is a haunting vision of evolution born from brutality, where war becomesnot an end in itself, but the next stage of human change.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. A lifeless planet should not breathe.A dead species should not remember.And the machines of a lost civilisation should not dream.After the catastrophe that scattered the expedition across an alien world, the survivors find themselves hunted, isolated, and transformed in ways they barely understand. Jessica follows a river into a vast, ancient forest where biology behaves like memory-and memory behaves like a weapon. Tanya, Tom and Jason fight through hostile plains toward a beacon that should not exist. Deep beneath the sea, Polkinghorn enters a silent Citadel where metal grows like flesh and history watches him with mechanical eyes.Everywhere, the same question echoes: What is the Alloy, and why is it choosing them?Across the planet's surface, evolution itself seems to be waking. Creatures return from death. Ancient machines respond to human touch. Hidden messages drift through the air in chemical whispers. And far beyond this world, forces older than humanity are preparing to decide whether the human species is worth saving-or must be removed.As the survivors struggle toward reunion, the truth becomes impossible to deny: Some memories belong to species. Others belong to planets. And some belong to the Universe itself.The Alloy is a story of survival, transformation, alien intelligence and the thin line between life and machine. The machines remember. The species forgets. But the planet never does. This item is printed on demand.
