In his previous life, Luodan chose the most outstanding combat style, but he became a space pirate before graduating and died young. After dying, he experienced rebirth before choosing a major. This time, he decisively chose the "Trash major" as his "Guardian System." He had thought that he could avoid the male god Mausoleum of Books and save his son from a tragic death, but he didn't expect that at the very beginning ... Ling Ping: "Fight?" Lordaan put: "dozen bai." In the end ... Ling Ping: "Luodan, something happened to my Battle Mecha. Why don't you accompany me for a round of maintenance?" Ling Ping: "Put it on the table, Rolodan. My brain waves and the Mech's AI are linked a little too deeply. Remember to wake me up." Ling Ping: "Luodan put it down, I ..." "F * ck, don't you hate guardians the most?" Ling Ping: "If you can't wake me up, just kiss me." Rhodan said, "... "# $% *% &!" When the hooligans of the 18th region encountered the male god of the empire once again, they discovered that the entire world had become more and more unscientific!

A FEW GOOD CON MEN.... The starship crew was stuck on a planet where the well-meaning schemes of ivory tower social engineers had created a nightmare of battling gangs. So they pretended to be the "Royal Legions" from a distant star kingdom in hot pursuit of an unspeakably evil and nearly all-powerful villain who was hiding somewhere on the planet. Things went even better than they had hoped, and the planet was rapidly becoming civilized . . . and then the real Royal Flagship showed up. They thought they were doomed, but instead the new arrivals (who also weren't quite what they claimed to be) thought the crew had shown just the sort of initiative and ingenuity that the Interstellar Patrol was looking for. So they were inducted into the Patrol. And that was just the beginning. . . . At the publisher's request, this title is sold without DRM (Digital Rights Management). "I am delighted that someone is making Christopher Anvil's work available once again. Especially the Interstellar Patrol stories. I've always loved Anvil's . . . peculiar sense of humor." ¾David Weber "[Anvil is] insistently readable!" ¾The Encyclopedia of Science Fiction

Dystopia, from the Greek dus and topos “bad place,” is a revelatory genre and concept that has experienced a meteoric rise in popularity at the start of the twenty-first century. This book addresses approaches to the study of dystopia from the academic fields of theology and religious studies. Following a co-written chapter where Scott Donahue-Martens and Brandon Simonson argue that dystopia can be understood as demythologized apocalyptic, ten unique contributions each engage a work of popular culture, such as a book, movie, or television show. Topics across chapters range from the critical function of dystopia, social location and identity, violence, apocalypse and the end of everything, sacrifice, catharsis, and dystopian existentialism. This volume responds to the need for theological and religious reflection on dystopia in a world increasingly threatened by climate change, pandemics, and global war.
