Tim Lebbon könyvei a rukkolán


Tim Lebbon - Alien
Ellen Ripley, a Nostromo legénységének egyetlen életben maradt tagja az űrben sodródik… Egy peremvidéki bányabolygón, ahol a Weyland-Yutani társaság számára folyik az értékes érc kitermelése, a munkások rémülten próbálnak feljutni a bolygókörüli pályán keringő űrhajójukra, amit azonban nem sikerül elérniük. A hajón tartózkodók döbbenten látják a leszállóegységek kamerája által közvetített képeket: pókszerű lények tapadnak a munkások arcára. Ripley mentőkapszulája automatikusan bedokkol a bolygó irányába süllyedő hajóra. Amint magához tér a mélyálomból, a Nostromo katasztrófájának túlélője két ténnyel szembesül: harminchét évig sodródott az űrben, és a kis hajó komputerrendszerében jelen van az a mesterséges intelligencia, amely korábban az Ash nevű androidot irányította. Mielőtt a süllyedő hajó belépne a légkörbe, Ripley és társai kénytelenek látogatást tenni a bolygón, le kell menniük a bányába, ahol választ kapnak arra, hogyan érkeztek erre a helyre a rovarszerű szörnyek. Ripley tisztában van vele, hogy gyenge fegyvereikkel nem igazán védekezhetnek, azt azonban nem is sejti, hogy ha mégis sikerül visszajutniuk a hajóra, egy sokkal rafináltabb ellenség vár rájuk. Egy ellenség, amely nem foglalkozik mással, csak hogy végrehajtsa gazdái, a Weyland-Yutani által belé programozott feladatokat…

In ​space, no one can hear you scream. In this gripping Audible Original performance, Ellen Ripley, the last human survivor of the salvage ship Nostromo, once again takes on the relentless Xenomorphs: vicious, intelligent extra-terrestrials notorious for tearing humans apart. When her lifeboat Narcissus locks onto the mining ship Marion, she awakes from hypersleep to a nightmare: the dreaded creatures are lurking on board, ominously prowling a sealed-off shuttle after slaughtering the crew. When one of the merciless beasts escapes the hold, acting Captain Chris “Hoop” Hooper and his team are faced with an unimaginable horror—and Ripley just may be the crew’s only hope. An ensemble cast, featuring film icon Rutger Hauer and _Harry Potter_’s Matthew Lewis, commands this unforgettable performance, punctuated by immersive sound design from audio master and fan favorite Dirk Maggs. Awarded the 2017 Audie for Excellence in Production, the result is terrifying–and utterly pause-resistant.

Christopher Golden - Tim Lebbon - Blood ​of the Four
The ​acclaimed authors of The Map of Moments and The Secret Journeys of Jack London join creative forces once more in this epic, standalone novel—an exciting dark fantasy of gods and mortals, fools and heroes, saviors and destroyers with a brilliant beam of hope at its core--that should more than appeal to readers of N.K. Jemisin and Brandon Sanderson. In the great kingdom of Quandis, everyone is a slave. Some are slaves to the gods. Most are slaves to everyone else. Blessed by the gods with lives of comfort and splendor, the royal elite routinely perform their duties, yet some chafe at their role. A young woman of stunning ambition, Princess Phela refuses to allow a few obstacles—including her mother the queen and her brother, the heir apparent—stand in the way of claiming ultimate power and glory for herself. Far below the royals are the Bajuman. Poor and oppressed, members of this wretched caste have but two paths out of servitude: the priesthood . . . or death. Because magic has been kept at bay in Quandis, royals and Bajuman have lived together in an uneasy peace for centuries. But Princess Phela’s desire for power will disrupt the realm’s order, setting into motion a series of events that will end with her becoming a goddess in her own right . . . or ultimately destroying Quandis and all its inhabitants.

But when Tom excavates the site, he discovers not his son's remains but the moldering corpse of a little girl animated by a peculiar form of life. Lots more nastiness follows. Fans who prefer their horror to have a sense of humanity should look elsewhere.

Tim Lebbon - Into ​the Void
NEW ​YORK TIMES BESTSELLER On the planet Tython, the ancient Je’daii order was founded. And at the feet of its wise Masters, Lanoree Brock learned the mysteries and methods of the Force—and found her calling as one of its most powerful disciples. But as strongly as the Force flowed within Lanoree and her parents, it remained absent in her brother, who grew to despise and shun the Je’daii, and whose training in its ancient ways ended in tragedy. Now, from her solitary life as a Ranger keeping order across the galaxy, Lanoree has been summoned by the Je’daii Council on a matter of utmost urgency. The leader of a fanatical cult, obsessed with traveling beyond the reaches of known space, is bent on opening a cosmic gateway using dreaded dark matter as the key—risking a cataclysmic reaction that will consume the entire star system. But more shocking to Lanoree than even the prospect of total galactic annihilation, is the decision of her Je’daii Masters to task her with the mission of preventing it. Until a staggering revelation makes clear why she was chosen: The brilliant, dangerous madman she must track down and stop at any cost is the brother whose death she has long grieved—and whose life she must now fear. Includes a special, full-color excerpt from the Dark Horse comic Star Wars: Dawn of the Jedi and an original Dawn of the Jedi short story by John Ostrander!
