A star-faring religious cult has created an army of robotic zealots designed to follow holy scripture. As the robotic menace spreads across the galaxy, it takes prisoners to be 'excommunicated': hooked into a neural simulation of eternal torment. Captain Rolland Barron leads the Sol Federation Starship Excalibur on a diplomatic mission. Cassia LaCroix is a wormhole hunter, earning a living scouring the galaxy for valuable tunnels through space-time. Prince Zoojin, a psychic alien from a distant galaxy, must prove himself worthy of the throne of Paxis Prime. The paths of these characters converge as they pursue their own motives, leading them towards the mechanical legion that is sweeping across the galaxy.

Il y a quelques années de cela, les scientifiques s'accordaient à dire que les légumes étaient le futur de l'humanité : végétarisme, végétalisme... Tant de nouvelles façons de se nourrir qui pourraient empêcher l'humanité de se reposer sur des ressources épuisables de plus en plus rapidement. Cependant, personne ne pouvait prévoir qu'un jour paisible de deux mille dix-huit, l'humanité prendrait subitement fin à cause d'eux. Une tomate gigantesque se rapprochait alors de la planète et impossible de prévoir les effets qu'elle allait engendrer. Deux ans plus tard, une jeune parisienne et sa logeuse sont contraintes de survivre dans un territoire dangereux, envahi par des légumes gigantesques et menaçants. Mais tout espoir est-il vraiment perdu ? ******************** TW : Sang - Cadavres Cover par @Eunkyung_art, un gros gros merci à elle !

A young boy, Adam, discovers a gold medallion in a lump of coal. He keeps it as a curious good luck piece for the next twenty years, until as a scientist, he discovers it contains a message and is clearly alien. Join Adam and his colleague, Linda, as they embark upon an adventure of revelation, ultimately giving up all they hold dear to discover who we are and who put us here.

"Hi! I am so happy to have found you. For a long time I thought I was alone :-)" Since humanity started texting a mysterious celestial neighbour, fifteen-year-old Leonard Yates had only one dream; to join Earth's finest scientists delving deep into space to meet the entity named Archer, who lives alone on a resource-rich planet. But time for Leo is running out. Nearly all the crew for the expedition have been chosen and are already on their way. Leo knows. He has watched each member enter the Astral-Terrestrial Occum Machine known as The Atom to be teleported aboard a spaceship already soaring through the stars. Leo has one chance; the competition for the last ten spots is on and to make the cut Leo needs an edge. This edge comes in the form of the local hermit, a gruff and mean former-astronaut named Trent Green. Leo must enlist Trent's help to be selected as a potential space-faring candidate. Will Leo have what it takes to reach his dream and step inside the Atom?
