To Your Scattered Bodies Go
by Philip Jose Farmer
All those who ever lived on Earth have found themselves resurrected--healthy, young, and naked as newborns--on the grassy banks of a mighty river, in a world unknown. Miraculously provided with food, but with no clues to the meaning of their strange new afterlife, billions of people from every period of Earths history--and prehistory--must start again.Sir Francis Bacon would be the first to glimpse the incredible way-station, a link between worlds. This forbidden sight would spur the renowned 19th-century explorer to uncover the truth. Along with a remarkable group of compatriots, including Alice Liddell Hargreaves (the Victorian girl who was the inspiration for Alice in Wonderland), an English-speaking Neanderthal, a WWII Holocaust survivor, and a wise extraterrestrial, Burton sets sail on the magnificent river. His mission: to confront humankind's mysterious benefactors, and learn the true purpose--innocent or evil--of the Riverworld . . .
The Magic Labyrinth
by Philip Jose Farmer
The answers behind the enigmatic origins of Riverworld lie at last within reach, as the remarkable gathering of Earthlings--including Sir Richard Francis Burton, Samuel Clemens, Alice Liddell Hargreaves (the real-life Alice in Wonderland), Cyrano de Bergerac, Ulysses S. Grant, and Baron Von Richtoven--finally breaches the stronghold of Riverworld's extraordinary super-race.But answers would lead to more enigmatic questions . . . Who is the Mysterious Stranger who taunted the Riverworld resurrectees with hints of the truth? What is the key to the gargantuan computer that wields the power of life and death? The astonishing secrets lie within the Dark Tower--but only for those brave enough to seek them and wise enough to decipher them . . .
Hard Merchandise
by K. W. Jeter
The bestselling "Bounty Hunters" trilogy's thrilling conclusion revolves around Boba Fett's desperate struggle to survive his powerful enemies' conspiracy against him, Bossk's re-establishment of the bounty hunter's guild, and the shocking outcome of Kuat's machinations. Ties in to blockbuster release of "Episode One: The Phantom Menace."
The Dark Design
by Philip Jose Farmer
Years have passed on Riverworld. Entire nations have risen, and savage wars have been fought--all since the dead of Earth found themselves resurrected in their magnificent new homeworld. Yet the truth about the Ethicals, the powerful engineers of this mysterious "afterlife," remains unknown. But a curious cross-section of humanity is determined to change that situation . . . at any cost.Intrepid explorer Sir Richard Francis Burton leads the most remarkable voyage of discovery he has ever undertaken. Hot on his heels are Samuel Clemens, King John of England, and Cyrano de Bergerac. Spurred by the promise of ultimate answers, they chart a course across the vast polar sea--and toward the awesome tower that looms above it. But getting there will be more than half the battle. For death on Riverworld has become chillingly final . . .
The Final Encyclopedia
by Gordon R. Dickson
Originally published in 1984, The Final Encyclopedia tells of the events which occur when the human race is split into three splinter cultures: the Friendlies, fanatic in their faith; the truth-seeking Exotics; and the warrior Dorasi. But now humanity is threatened by the power-hungry Others, whose triumph would end all human progress.

American author, principally known for his science fiction and fantasy novels and short stories and considered one of the great science fiction writers in the field's history. He was born in Terre Haute, Indiana but spent much of his life in Peoria, Illinois. Some of Farmer's early works were notable for their groundbreaking introduction of sexual themes to science fiction. He is best known, however, for his Riverworld series and the earlier World of Tiers series, as well as his fascination for and reworking of the lore of legendary pulp heroes. In his classic 'biographies' of fictional characters (Tarzan Alive and Doc Savage: His Apocalyptic Life), Farmer introduced the Wold Newton family, a collection of heroes and villains whose family-tree includes Sherlock Holmes, Fu Manchu, Philip Marlowe, and James Bond. Winner of: 1953 Hugo Award, Most Promising New Talent; 1968 Hugo Award for Best Novella, Riders of the Purple Wage; 1972 Hugo Award for Best Novel, To Your Scattered Bodies Go; 2000 Nebula Award, Damon Knight Memorial Grand Master Award, lifetime achievement; 2001 World Fantasy Award for Life Achievement." - Wikipedia. "Thirty-five billion people from throughout Earth's history were resurrected along the great and winding waterways of Riverworld. Most began life anew--accepting without question the sustenance provided by their mysterious benefactors. But a rebellious handful burned to confront the unseen masters who controlled their fate--and these few launched an invasion that would ultimately yield the mind-boggling truth. Now Riverworld's omnipotent leaders have been confronted, and the renegades of Riverworld--led by the intrepid Sir Richard Francis Burton--control the fantastic mechanism that once ruled them. But the most awesome challenge lies ahead. For in the vast corridors and secret rooms of the tower stronghold, an unknown enemy watches and waits to usurp the usurpers . . ." - paperback edition.
