Peter Roth is a talented musician and an expert drunk. For years, he's heard voices in his head, voices of anyone he's ever respected, and they're all judging him for his failures. As his twenties are dwindling away, Peter decides to embark on a make-or-break trip to the West Coast with his girlfriend and his sister, honing his music along the way. One of the voices comes along for the ride - only it turns out that this one is real. As Peter makes his way across the country, he has no idea that there are dark forces gathering against him - and what it's going to take to survive.

In this science fiction satire of westerns, after the American West was destroyed in a series of biological disasters, rebuilding it is a lot like building it in the first place, but there are crucial differences. For example, new, partly mechanical cattle with computer brains are called steerites. They speak and sing a lot more than the original steers. Most of the cowboys, outlaws, and lawmen are partly mechanical, too, except for those few humans called control-naturals. That group has to keep all their original equipment, just like the original cowboys.

He offers them both the ultimate gamble - their souls, for another shot at life.

It's the late 1970s and city league softball - and partying - reign supreme. Talented Jo Jo Van Dyne and company struggle to right themselves from a winless first season, in part by renaming themselves the Streakers because their first year team name, the Hard Machine, hadn't exactly brought them any kind of luck. This time around, though, the early twenties team has high hopes. This is a year where, they all truly believe, anything can happen. And who knows...maybe it will.

Lawless Hour is a gripping political thriller that explores the dark descent of a society under authoritarian rule. In a near-future America, the newly elected regime introduces a radical policy: an unimpeded hour of law enforcement power to "restore order." But as the night stretches on, it becomes clear that this is not a simple exercise in justice—it's a systematic purge targeting anyone deemed undesirable by the state's new laws.
