More than two decades have passed since Sarah Connor prevented Judgment Day, changed the future, and re-wrote the fate of the human race. Now, Dani Ramos is living a simple life in Mexico City with her brother and father when a highly advanced and deadly new Terminator – a Rev-9 – travels back through time to hunt and kill her. Dani's survival depends on her joining forces with two warriors: Grace, an enhanced super-soldier from the future, and a battle-hardened Sarah Connor.
As the Rev-9 ruthlessly destroys everything and everyone in its path on the hunt for Dani, the three are led to a T-800 from Sarah’s past that may be their last best hope.

Living Hot tells the blunt truth about our current climate change
predicament: it's time to get cracking on making Australia resilient to
intensifying climate extremes. If we prepare well, we can give
ourselves a fighting chance to preserve some of the best of what we
have, build stronger and fairer communities, find a path through the
escalating pressures of a warming world – and even find new ways to
flourish.
To get there, we must leave behind both the doomism and the wishful
thinking currently holding us back. In Living Hot, highly respected
academic Clive Hamilton and policy consultant George Wilkenfeld shift
the emphasis away from reducing carbon emissions and on to making
Australia resilient, outlining a vision for an all-embracing and
on-going program of investment and social change to protect ourselves
from the ravages of a changing climate.
Living Hot is a sober assessment of the challenges we face, and a
farsighted road map for what we must do next if we want to survive and
even thrive on our heating planet.
A cat's-eye view of history! Discover secrets, stories and facts
about historyâs most fascinating felines! Young historians may
never look at the past - or cats! - in quite the same way again.
Cats have prowled Earth for millennia, yet the history of the world
has always been told through the eyes of humans. But now it's time
to - finally! - set the record straight and uncover the key role
that cats have played in shaping the course of history. Did you
know that ancient Egyptians loved cats so much that they had
special laws to protect them? Or that Isaac Newton's cat helped him
develop the theory of gravity? How about that FĂŠliette, a French
street cat, was the first cat to go into space in 1963? A History
of the World (According to Cats!) introduces us to fur-raising
facts and adventures from around the world and across the
centuries. Discover unknown stories about real-life felines,
including WWII heroes, courageous adventurers and even an astrocat
that travelled in space (and made it back to Earth to tell the
tale), this book places cats as the heroes of their own stories.
Full of real-life stories, with all the boring stuff left out, this
book takes a look at the world's history through feline eyes.

Humanity rises to meet a powerful alien threat, in this extraordinary conclusion to Peter F. Hamilton’s Salvation Sequence. This is a high-octane adventure from 'the most powerful imagination in science fiction' (Ken Follett).
Live in hiding – or die for freedom
Humanity welcomed the Olyix and their utopian technology. But mankind was tricked. Now these visitors are extracting a terrible price.
For two years, the Olyix have laid siege to Earth, harvesting its people for their god. One by one, cities are falling to their devastating weaponry. And while millions have fled to seek refuge in space, others continue to fight an apparently unwinnable war.
As Earth's defeat draws near, a team attempts to infiltrate the Salvation of Life – the Olyix’s arkship. If it succeeds, those chosen will travel to a hidden enclave thousands of light years away. Once there, they must signal its location to future generations, to bring the battle to the enemy. Maybe allies scattered throughout space and time can join forces. Yet in the far future, humanity are still hunted by their ancient adversary. And as forces battle on in the cold reaches of space, hope seems distant indeed . . .
The Saints of Salvation is the third and final book in the Salvation Sequence by Peter F. Hamilton.
