Book excerpt: It’s never a pleasant experience to have one’s eyes forcibly removed – even for an android. Paul, a sapient android and completely disorientated without his eyes, careers around the alley, arms outstretched. He trips over abandoned refuse straddling the pathway and falls. He picks himself up again, only for his feet to become entangled in some cable and to crash headfirst to the floor once again. He hears laughter which stops abruptly as a new voice enters the conversation. ​In this second book of the Sophont trilogy, we meet androids Paul, Philip, and Sylas whose lives become inextricably entangled after Paul’s rescue in the alleyway. Paul’s eyes are replaced and he is introduced to an autonomous life that a lowly administration model such as he could never have imagined. But his saviours also have a special mission for him – a mission that involves Coppélia. No longer governed by the Three Laws of Robotics, he is free to make his own decisions. But if the success of his mission rests on his breaking those laws which he has always adhered to, can he bring himself to do so?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A chilling confession, hidden for over a decade, reignites a harrowing cold case in this gripping true crime tale. The chance discovery of a letter on 31 March 2012 reawakens a case long considered to have run cold – the kidnapping and murder of Betty Ketani, a mother of three who vanished while working at one of Johannesburg's most popular restaurants. As the investigation spans five countries and enlists the help of a world-renowned DNA laboratory, shocking truths emerge about those implicated in the crime. Written by the reporter who broke the story, Alex Eliseev, Cold Case Confession delves deep into the murder mystery, sharing exclusive material gathered over four years of tireless investigation. With a narrative that reads like a Hollywood movie script, this true crime masterpiece unravels the perplexing question: who wanted Betty Ketani dead, and why? 'This case is like an Agatha Christie whodunit: abduction, murder and a confession.' – Carte Blanche 'Wonderful, evocative and vivid writing. Eliseev is a very exciting new talent.' – Peter James 'This book has become a South African classic.' – Jenny Crwys Williams

This book was released on 2013-01-28 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written against the academically dominant but simplistic romanticization of popular music as a positive force, this book focuses on the 'dark side' of the subject. It is a pioneering examination of the ways in which popular music has been deployed in association with violence, ranging from what appears to be an incidental relationship, to one in which music is explicitly applied as an instrument of violence. A preliminary overview of the physiological and cognitive foundations of sounding/hearing which are distinctive within the sensorium, discloses in particular their potential for organic and psychic violence. The study then elaborates working definitions of key terms (including the vexed idea of the 'popular') for the purposes of this investigation, and provides a historical survey of examples of the nexus between music and violence, from (pre)Biblical times to the late nineteenth century. The second half of the book concentrates on the modern era, marked in this case by the emergence of technologies by which music can be electronically augmented, generated, and disseminated, beginning with the advent of sound recording from the 1870s, and proceeding to audio-internet and other contemporary audio-technologies. Johnson and Cloonan argue that these technologies have transformed the potential of music to mediate cultural confrontations from the local to the global, particularly through violence. The authors present a taxonomy of case histories in the connection between popular music and violence, through increasingly intense forms of that relationship, culminating in the topical examples of music and torture, including those in Bosnia, Darfur, and by US forces in Iraq and Guantánamo Bay. This, however, is not simply a succession of data, but an argumentative synthesis. Thus, the final section debates the implications of this nexus both for popular music studies itself, and also in cultural policy and regulation, the ethics of citizenship, and arguments about human rights.

Book excerpt: Some things about the world appear to be different, but that’s only to be expected when one has been away for a hundred years or so. Coppélia’s robotic memory is supposed to be infallible but the additional differences she perceives are so slight that she dismisses them as within reasonable limits of variance. ​Today is the most important day since her return, as she has been asked to receive a posthumous Nobel Peace Prize on behalf of her late friend, Karen Chambers, for her tireless work in integrating sophonts into society. The android takes the stage at the Oslo City Hall. ​In this third and final instalment of the Sophont trilogy, Karen’s granddaughter, Holly Bryson, also notices discrepancies between Coppélia’s anecdotal stories and the visual records that form part of her grandmother’s memoirs, but the inconsistencies she notices are not so easy to dismiss. The burning question at the fore of Holly’s mind is whether or not the android onstage is the same android that was her grandmother’s best friend. ​To find the answer to that question, Holly finds herself on a journey that, as yet, only exists in astrophysicist’s minds and calculations.

Book excerpt: It’s not often that anyone gets the jump on Judd Witherspoon. The man seems to have a sixth sense for trouble. This time is an exception. On his feet in an instant, he finds himself facing the double barrels of a shotgun blaster. He eyes the would-be robber with a steely gaze. ​“I’d point that gun away from me and walk away if I were you.” ​The man with the gun sneers. ​“Good job I ain’t you then.” ​Judd offers his terms for the man’s life again. ​“I’m giving you a chance. Walk away now and I’ll pretend this never happened.” ​The man can tell that Judd's a courier and couriers carry valuable cargo. He cocks the hammer of the vintage weapon. Before the man has a chance to pull the trigger, Judd’s hand reaches over his right shoulder and draws his razor-sharp machete from its sheath. In an instant, the blade slices into the man’s torso, slashes through his ribs, and cuts his heart in two whilst still inside his body. ​In a Mad Max-style story, Judd Witherspoon, a courier on the planet Duoterra, braves bear-wolf attacks and ambushes by Sifter gangs in order to deliver a precious graphene package to Paradise Cove.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Coppélia knows that her assigned role as a sexbot means that she must be completely compliant to her clients’ demands, no matter what they may be. But this time it’s different – she doesn’t want to submit to the whims of the customers of the Club Galatea bordello anymore. She’s had enough. She tells her client no. The client is unhappy and makes an unsuccessful grab at her with his chubby calloused hands. She repeats her refusal but the client ignores her and forces himself on her. She has the strength to rip his head off with one hand but that would contravene her programming. Besides, she has no desire to hurt any human – not even this brute. ​In this genre-bending first book of the Sophont trilogy, Detective Inspector Karen Chambers is called in by NewMet City Special Victims Unit to interview a prospective rape victim and is shocked when she confirms that the victim is an android. The DI’s curiosity is piqued and she resolves to find out more about Coppélia. ​Why does she appear to have feelings and emotions? She’s clearly not a regular android, so who built her? And why? ​Neither Karen nor Coppélia are prepared for the incredible truth.

Book excerpt: Eloise Hudson, Caucasian, female, twenty-five years old, winces with pain as she feels the blade draw across her skin. She has no idea why her captor took her or why he tortures her so. She doesn’t know him and has done nothing to harm or offend him – not as far as she knows, anyway. Perhaps her very existence is enough to sign her death warrant. ​In this sci-fi thriller, a serial killer is terrorizing a city but the police have no leads until the murderer makes a mistake and leaves DNA on the body of his latest victim. However, analysis of the sample does nothing to help the police investigation. The perpetrator is not in the system – an impossibility, since everybody is in the system. ​How can the police catch the killer if they have no identifying data? A forensic scientist comes up with an innovative solution which takes the criminal investigation into the ethical minefield of human cloning.

Book excerpt: A flurry of activity takes over the Intensive Care Unit as medical staff go about their tasks preparing the room for a critically ill patient. The doors of the ICU burst open and a gurney is pushed to the side of the bed. Doctors and nurses take their positions either side of the gurney and expertly transfer the patient to the bed. Fortunately, Arnold Leadbetter is unaware of what is going on, his comatose state shielding him from the circumstances that he now finds himself in. Unfortunately, not every disease is curable and Arnold’s prognosis is a life hooked up to a Life Support machine, his body paralysed and in a coma. A decision is made to switch off the machine. In this comedy horror, that could be described as “An American Werewolf In London” meets “Weekend At Bernie’s”, Arnold finds that death is definitely not what he expected it to be, as he is pitched into a world of soft-porn movie-makers, zombies, vampires, and werewolves.

Book excerpt: The checkpoint between sectors is bustling with crowds of travellers doing their best to attract the attention of the border patrol staff so that they might have their travel permits authorized and stamped. It’s a waste of time and effort for ninety-nine per cent of them as moving between sectors is strictly prohibited for all except those with special permission from the Colony Executive. ​The Weatherman has no such problems. Dressed in a brown two-piece suit, a cream coloured shirt, and wearing a dark brown bowler hat, he is instantly recognisable by border security. Carrying a ridged walking cane in his right hand, he can travel at will between sectors as often as required with no paperwork whatsoever. The border patrol officials know who he is and give him a wide berth. To refuse him free passage would be to risk their jobs – perhaps even their lives. In this sci-fi thriller with a twist of urban fantasy set on a far distant planet, a teacher from the lowly Sector D, Ooze, stumbles across a strange young woman lost in the fog and is persuaded to leave his uneventful life behind him and join her on a quest. Little does he know that he is putting his life in such grave danger.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's just another day at Lowell Observatory, Arizona until Amy, one of the astrophysicists on duty, notices something on a computer screen that shouldn't be there. It's an asteroid, a Near-Earth Object, and its orbit trajectory will lead it to collide with Earth. And it's as big as the asteroid that wiped out the dinosaurs. ​NASA's Planetary Defense Coordination Office springs into action with three potential solutions - detonating an explosive device near the asteroid to break it up into smaller, less dangerous chunks, firing lasers to heat up and vaporize the space rock enough to change its orbital path, or sending a spacecraft to slam into the asteroid, knocking it off its trajectory. ​Nations rally round to help ensure humankind's survival and a project to build a kinetic impact rocket gets underway. However, there are forces at work that want to prevent the launch of the rocket and write humankind's death warrant.. What are these forces and, perhaps more importantly, why would they want to sabotage the plan to save Earth? Is Earth doomed?

Book excerpt: This is book 2 of the Trojans MC romance series! Book 3 of this motorcycle club romance is available everywhere now! She was too pure for me, but I screwed her anyways. She wanted a taste of the biker life. So I bent her over my bed and showed her how to please me. It’s exactly what she asked for, and I’m more than happy to help her out. As long as she’s okay with hitting the streets as soon as I’m through with her. Because I’ve got a club to run and a city to conquer. I don’t have time for this nosy reporter looking to use me for her big break. I’m the one who’s gonna be using her, not the other way around. But my attitude gets flipped on its head when Shayla leaves me before I can do the same to her. I find myself feeling something so weird, so unfamiliar. I want her back? It doesn’t make any sense. I’ve had every wayward woman in the city. Why do I care about this one? But the heart wants what it wants. So here’s what I’m going to do: Drag Shayla back into my world. Put my ring on her finger. And fill her belly with my baby. And then I’ll never let her leave me again.
