Book excerpt: Meet Maxim Arturovitch Pyatnitski, also known as Pyat. Tsarist rebel, Nazi thug, continental conman, and reactionary counterspy: the dark and dangerous anti-hero of Michael Moorcock’s most controversial work Published in 1981 to great critical acclaim—then condemned to the shadows and unavailable in the U.S. for thirty years—Byzantium Endures, the first of the Pyat Quartet, is not a book for the faint-hearted. It’s the story of a cocaine addict, sexual adventurer, and obsessive anti-Semite whose epic journey from Leningrad to London connects him with scoundrels and heroes from Trotsky to Makhno, and whose career echoes that of the 20th century’s descent into Fascism and total war. This is Moorcock at his audacious, iconoclastic best: a grand sweeping overview of the events of the last century, as revealed in the secret journals of modern literature’s most proudly unredeemable outlaw. This authoritative U.S. edition presents the author’s final cut, restoring previously forbidden passages and deleted scenes

His eyes rolled wildly in his head as he searched for a hiding place. 'They'll surely kill me now. Help me, Manaen. Please help me.'" As a member of the household of Herod the Great, Manaen is immersed in an unpredictable and often violent world. In his search for truth and for love, he finds that it can also be a world of healing and restoration. Manaen is uniquely positioned to witness the entire life of Jesus Christ. The way their lives intertwine provides a fresh perspective on Jesus from the moment of his birth to his persecution, death, and resurrection. Will Manaen's prophecies come to pass, or is he just another false prophet? Though we see mention of the true Manaen in the Bible, we really know little about him. In her novel, "Manaen: Prophet to the King," Robbie Munn Bayler weaves fact and fiction together in a tale of intrigue, adventure, love, and betrayal. From the wealth of the palace to the depth of the tomb, "Manaen: Prophet to the King" is timeless and exciting. It is the story of the influence one man has on every life he touches.

Book excerpt: Jessie Aitkin, the long-time Editor-in-Chief of a leading life sciences journal, receives a fantastic job offer. A young animal rights activist requests an interview with her husband, Peter Dahl, a research scientist at a prestigious institute. An unexpected revelation sets in motion a series of events that shifts the course of their careers and their relationship. In this novel, another page turner by the author of Raw Data: A Novel on Life in Science (Springer 2016), enthusiasm for basic research and for how science is – and could be – communicated combine in a thoughtful reflection on the impact of ambition on personal relationships. In a non-technical appendix, the author discusses the use of narrative in scientific papers and considers alternative modes of science publishing, one of which is featured in the novel. Storytelling in science has the potential to enhance communication, but may also have unintended consequences. This novel and the appendix explore these timely and important issues for the scientific community.
