- Shorefall : a novel / by Bennett, Robert Jackson,1984-author.;
"As a magical revolution remakes a city, an ancient evil is awakened in a brilliant new novel from the Hugo-nominated author of Foundryside and the Divine Cities trilogy. Having narrowly saved the metropolis of Tevanne from destruction, Sancia Grado and her allies have turned to their next task: sowing the seeds of a full-on magical-industrial revolution. If they succeed, the secrets behind scriving--the art of imbuing everyday objects with sentience--will be accessible to all of Tevanne's citizens, much to the displeasure of the robber-barons who've hoarded this knowledge for themselves. But one of Sancia's enemies has embarked on a desperate gambit, an attempt to resurrect a figure straight out of legend--an immortal being known as a heirophant. Long ago, the heirophant was an ordinary man, but he's used scriving to transform himself into something closer to a god. Once awakened, he'll stop at nothing to remake the world in his horrifying image. And if Sancia can't stop this ancient power from returning? Well, the only way to fight a god ... is with another god"--- Subjects: Fantasy fiction.; Artificial intelligence; Magic;

- Locklands : a novel / by Bennett, Robert Jackson,1984-author.;
"A god wages war-using all of humanity as its pawns-in the unforgettable conclusion to the Founders trilogy. Sancia, Clef, and Berenice have gone up against plenty of long odds in the past. But the war they're fighting now is one even they can't win. This time, they're not facing robber-baron elites, or even an immortal hierophant, but an entity whose intelligence is spread over half the globe-a ghost in the machine that uses the magic of scriving to possess and control not just objects, but human minds.To fight it, they've used scriving technology to transform themselves and their allies into an army-a society-that's like nothing humanity has seen before. With its strength at their backs, they've freed a handful of their enemy's hosts from servitude, even brought down some of its fearsome, reality-altering dreadnaughts. Yet despite their efforts, their enemy marches on-implacable. Unstoppable. Now, as their opponent closes in on its true prize-an ancient doorway, long buried, that leads to the chambers at the center of creation itself-Sancia and her friends glimpse a chance at reaching it first, and with it, a last desperate opportunity to stop this unbeatable foe. But to do so, they'll have to unlock the centuries-old mystery of scriving's origins, embark on a desperate mission into the heart of their enemy's power, and pull off the most daring heist they've ever attempted. And as if that weren't enough, their adversary might just have a spy in their ranks-and a last trick up its sleeve"--- Subjects: Fantasy fiction.; Novels.; Artificial intelligence; Gods; Imaginary places; Imaginary wars and battles; Magic;

- Mr. Mindbomb : eco-hero and Greenpeace co-founder Bob Hunter : a life in stories / by Hunter, Bobbi,editor.; May, Elizabeth,writer of afterword.; Watson, Paul,1950-writer of introduction.;
A collection of personal essays detailing the life and achievements of a renowned environmental hero and activist. Mr. Mindbomb is a chronology of the significant events of Bob Hunter's life, written chapter by chapter by those who knew him. Where one contributor leaves off, the next picks up, moving the reader through another moment in time, sharing some new insight. This is the real life and legacy of Bob Hunter: Canadian eco-hero, author of 14 books, winner of a Governor General's Award, popular journalist, and recipient of a magical salute of gratitude from a pod of whales. Part adventure thriller, part comedy, part documentary, and part provocation for individuals to stand up for the environment, it's a rare look through the lens and perspective of those touched by Bob's influence. By finding kindred spirits in the voices of each of the contributors, many of whom continue the work, it's a powerful reminder that things don't happen in a vacuum. Fifteen years after Bob's much-too-early passing, Mr. Mindbomb is a reminder that any one person, fuelled by commitment and love, can find others who feel the same, and together they can do extraordinarily heroic deeds for the well-being of all. Contributors include: Cathy Anderson, Aline Barber, David Berner, Jim Deacove, Marlayna Demco, Patricia Demco, Janine Ferretti, Bill Gannon, Douglas Gibson, Bobbi Hunter, Darren Hunter, Donald Hunter, Emily Hunter, Justine Hunter, Will Hunter, Stephen Hurlbut, Teri Innes, Ryan Jackson, Lea Ann Mallett, Marnie Marchant, Rod Marining, Sandy Maskell, Elizabeth May, Joyce Mclean, Peter O'Brian, Chris Pash, Walt Patterson, Ronald Precious, Jim Robb, Jerry Rothwell, Paul Ruzycki, Stephen Scharper, Steve Shallhorn, Todd Southgate, Peter Speck, Paul Spong, Carlie Trueman, Captain Paul Watson, Linda Weinberg, Rex Weyler, Hap Wilson, Dinah Yvonne, and Moses Znaimer.- Subjects: Biographies.; Personal narratives.; Essays.; Hunter, Robert, 1941-2005.; Greenpeace Foundation.; Conservationists; Environmentalists; Journalists;
