Iscriviti per consentire a LibraryThing di scoprire se ti piacerà questo libro. Attualmente non vi sono conversazioni su questo libro. Its not often I encounter and author whose stories cross several genres such as Mosley. Its obvious his primary genre is crime/detective stories, though the two in this book are pure science fiction with a humanitarian bend. Merge I found curious due to the 'alien creatures' that morph into humans, while Disciple's "Bron" comes across as a 'universal alien/spirit' who picks Hogarth to carry out his mission. Mosley's ability to engage regardless of the genre is quite good, though I prefer his fiction to this genre, "John Woman" his latest and greatest in particular. I enjoyed the two stories and think those who like science fiction will as well. ( ) nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

"MERGE Raleigh Redman loved Nicci Charbon until she left him heartbroken. Then he hit the lotto for $26 million, quit his minimum wage job and set his sights on one goal: reading the entire collection of lectures in the Popular Educator Library, the only thing his father left behind after he died. As Raleigh is trudging through the eighth volume, he notices something in his apartment that at first seems ordinary but quickly reveals itself to be from a world very different from our own. This entity shows Raleigh joy beyond the comforts of $26 million dollars....and merges our world with those that live beyond. DISCIPLE Hogarth "Trent" Tryman is a forty-two year old man working a dead-end data entry job. Though he lives alone and has no real friends besides his mother, he's grown quite content in his quiet life, burning away time with television, the internet, and video games. That all changes the night he receives a bizarre instant message on his computer from a man who calls himself Bron. At first he thinks it's a joke, but in just a matter of days Hogarth Tryman goes from a data entry clerk to the head of a corporation. His fate is now in very powerful hands as he realizes he has become a pawn in a much larger game with unimaginable stakes--a battle that threatens the prime life force on Earth.
