Ever since the outbreak of the mysterious plague known

at least one unlikely couple - privileged Nora Dearly
and dashing zombie ex-soldier Bram Griswold - have found
true love, despite their "differences." Still,
tensions continue to grow between pro and anti-zombie
factions

Proxima:
Stephen Baxter
The very far future: The
Galaxy is a drifting wreck of black holes, neutron
stars, chill white dwarfs. The age of star formation is
long past. Yet there is life here, feeding off the
energies of the stellar remnants, and there is mind, a
tremendous Galaxy-spanning intelligence each of whose
thoughts lasts a hundred thousand years. And this mind
cradles memories of a long-gone age when a more compact
universe was full of light. The 27th century: Proxima
Centauri, an undistinguished red dwarf star, is the
nearest star to our sun - and (in this fiction), the
nearest to host a world, Proxima IV, habitable by
humans. But Proxima IV is unlike Earth in many ways.
Huddling close to the warmth, orbiting in weeks, it
keeps one face to its parent star at all times. The 'substellar
point', with the star forever overhead, is a blasted
desert, and the 'antistellar point' on the far side is
under an ice cap in perpetual darkness. How would it be
to live on such a world?

to Alan Saul, the Committee's network of control is a
smoking ruin and its robotic enforcers lie dormant. But

Humanoid Unit Development, the possibility of eternal
life, and a madman who may hold the keys to interstellar
flight. But Earth's agents are closer than Saul thinks,
and the killing will soon begin.
