    von Hugh Howey
    16,00 €

    A collection of the year's best science fiction and fantasy short fiction selected by New York Times bestselling author of the Silo series Hugh Howey and series editor John Joseph Adams."These are dangerous stories. The kind that warp reality and threaten to change the world" warns guest editor Hugh Howey in his introduction. The Best American Science Fiction and Fantasy 2024 promises a treasure trove of audacious characters, daring worldbuilding, and twisted realties. A sibling duo of supernatural hitmen. A traveling spellbreaker and his trusty alligator mount. Superheroes registering for work. Sentient spaceships with an AI-human interface grow up together with their human pilots. From a Korean folk-tale retelling about the goddess of shamans, to a car, resurrected from obsolescence via automancy, for a road trip from California to Maine, these are stories that, for Howey, "challenged my worldview, that made me exercise new mental muscles, and that brought me to tears."The Best American Science Fiction and Fantasy 2024 includes A.R. CAPETTA - P. DJÈLÍ CLARK - JAMES S.A. COREY - AMAL EL-MOHTAR - ANDREW SEAN GREER - GRADY HENDRIX - ANN LECKIE - SAM J. MILLER REBECCA ROANHORSE - and others

    »Ich habe aufgehört, mich anzustrengen, und es fühlt sich so gut an.«Keine Lust mehr auf Stress, Selbstoptimierung und Druck von allen Seiten? Dann nimm dir ein Beispiel an Faultieren. Ihr Mantra ist Entschleunigung. Sie schlafen viel, bewegen sich langsam, essen genüsslich, hängen dauernd rum und sind gerne für sich - dies alles jedoch mit nachhaltigem Erfolg: Faultiere gibt es seit 30 Millionen Jahren. Es ist Zeit, die Faulheit auch für uns zu entdecken und von den besten Entspannungsexperten dieser Welt zu lernen. Denn nur denen, die auch mal nichts tun, geht es dauerhaft gut. Willkommen bei den Faultieren und ihrer Lebensphilosophie! Hier ein paar Weisheiten:Schlaf aus - das ist erholsamer für Geist und Körper als um 6 Uhr früh joggen zu gehen. Faultiere schlafen zwischen 10 und 18 Stunden täglich.Iss langsam - Faultiere gehören zur Slow-Food-Bewegung der ersten Stunde. Sie verzehren hauptsächlich frische Blätter, Zweige und Früchte - und kauen stundenlang drauf rum. Plus: Sie essen im Freien, weit weg von ihren Computern.Halt still - Faultiere sind Meister der Reglosigkeit. Sie entkommen Raubtieren, indem sie ganz stillhalten. In unserem aufgescheuchten Medienzeitalter müssen wir dauernd auf irgendwas reagieren. Dies einfach mal nicht zu tun - was für eine Erholung. Sei dir selbst genug: Faultiere sind von Natur aus ungesellig und verbringen den Großteil ihrer Zeit allein. Wir glauben, uns dauernd verabreden zu müssen - und dass Alleinsein etwas Schlimmes ist. Doch das Gegenteil ist der Fall: Endlich mal wieder Zeit für sich zu haben, kann magisch sein.»Ihre Anleitung zu mehr Gelassenheit in einer tierisch hektischen Welt bietet eine humorvolle Lektüre die zum Nachdenken anregt [...].« Mannheimer Morgen »Das Buch ist eine schnelle und leichte Lektüre, trotzdem hat es mein Leben verändert.« GlamourDE

Out of the darkness, someone jostles her, then brushes past. A moment later, she stumbles, collapsing against a tree. When a young mother finds her body and alerts the police, Detective Superintendent Duncan Kincaid and his sergeant, Doug Cullen, are called to the scene.
