"A razor-sharp comedy and a smart meditation on the nature of gaming." --"Boston Globe"
When Russell joins Black Arts games, brainchild of two visionary designers who were once his closest friends, he reunites with an eccentric crew of nerds hacking the frontiers of both technology and entertainment. In part, he's finally given up chasing the conventional path that has always seemed just out of reach. But mostly, he needs to know what happened to Simon, his strangest and most gifted friend, who died under mysterious circumstances soon after Black Arts' breakout hit.
As the company's revolutionary next-gen game is threatened by a software glitch, Russell finds himself in a race to save his job, Black Arts' legacy, and the people he has grown to care about. The deeper Russell digs, the more dangerous the glitch appears--and soon, Russell comes to realize there's much more is at stake than just one software company's bottom line.

Immerse yourself in the terror of Peter Benchley's vintage thriller, Jaws. Released in 1974 and inspiring Spielberg's cinematic masterpiece, the book has sold over twenty million copies globally and remains a landmark in classic literary horror.

It's never safe to go back in the water . . .

A small Atlantic resort. The mutilated body of a young woman, or what is left of it, washes up on the long, white stretch of beach on the beach. It is merely a harbinger of the horror that is about to unfold, as a sun-drenched holiday turns into a nightmare.

You'll never look at the sea the same way again. A summer of terror has begun.
