P&O "snob" pour Gordon Lyons alors que la lettre sur les licenciements brutaux reste sans réponse

P&O “snob” pour Gordon Lyons alors que la lettre sur les licenciements brutaux reste sans réponse

P&O Ferries semble avoir snobé le ministre de l’Economie alors que la dispute sur le limogeage de 800 employés gronde. ordon Lyons a écrit au directeur général de P&O, Martin Helwig, accusant l’entreprise de “manquer de respect” à l’exécutif. Mais, jusqu’à présent, et après plus de quatre semaines, il n’y a pas eu de réponse de la compagnie qui a repris ses navigations depuis Larne où 50 membres…

[Free eBook] Duende Meadow by Paul Cook [Post-Apocalyptic Science Fiction]

Duende Meadow by Paul Cook is his standalone far-future science fiction novel, free for a limited time courtesy of publisher Phoenix Pick Press.

This was originally published in 1985 by Bantam's Spectra imprint. This is a sort of post-post-apocalyptic rediscovery tale, wherein a war-stricken humanity which hid underground for centuries and changed greatly within that time now re-emerges into the world above, not knowing what they will find.

Offered DRM-free worldwide through the month of March, available directly from the publisher as their Free Book of the Month selection.

Free for a limited time throughout March directly @ the publisher's special promo page (DRM-free ePub & Mobi available worldwide; follow the instructions on the page to reset the price to $0.00 during checkout).

There are two tie-in offers this month. One provides the rest of PPP's Cook catalogue of 7 additional backlist novels (8 total including the freebie) for just $7. I've read and enjoyed his novel Fortress on the Sun, which was a previous giveaway and good enough that I jumped on this exact tie-in offer the first time it made the rounds at a price of $10, many years ago.

The other tie-in includes all the Cook titles, and for the combined minimum price of $8.50 adds 2 of Canadian author Terence M. Green's Mitch Helwig series of science fiction police procedurals previously published by St. Martin's Press in the 1980s, which I've also read/bought the sequel due to a previous PPP giveaway. These are okay stories set in futuristic (for circa 1980s values of projected developments) Toronto with a slightly reactionary somewhat anti-hero.

IMHO, either option is really good value for money if you like Cook's writing and/or are interested in retro-80s future Toronto policing.

Description When the last great war came, a small group of survivors hid themselves below the fields of Kansas, living in a place of eternal twilight.

Over time the energy surrounding the descendants of these survivors turned them into Duendes, ghost-like beings, never having seen real light or knowing anything of the conditions of the world beyond their underground enclosure.

Six hundred years have passed since the war and now some Duendes want to leave the safety of their habitat and finally go “above.” But what will they discover once they have emerged into the sunlight?
