Meistens fühlt sich Sarya ganz normal. Überhaupt nicht wie das furchterregendste Geschöpf im ganzen Kosmos. Meistens kommt sie auch ganz gut damit klar, dass sie der letzte Mensch im Universum ist, und dass sie wohl nie erfahren wird, warum die Menschheit eigentlich ausgerottet wurde. Denn meistens ist sie damit beschäftigt, ihre wahre Identität vor den Hunderten von Aliens, die Watertower Station bevölkern, zu verbergen. Oder ihre Adoptivmutter, eine riesige Alienspinne, daran zu hindern, die Nachbarn zu fressen.

Mein Name ist Theo und ich bin ein Einwohner Oasis’, dem letzten bewohnbaren Fleckchen Erde. Es sollte ein Paradies sein, ein Ort, an dem wir alle glücklich sind. Schlechtes Benehmen, Gewalt, Geisteskrankheiten und andere Gesundheitsprobleme sind nur noch eine entfernte Erinnerung - auch der Tod ist keine Bedrohung mehr.

Sie sagt, ihr Name sei Phoe - und sie ist meine Wahnvorstellung.

Ludwig von Mises is to economics what Albert Einstein is to physics. Human Action is his greatest work: a systematic study that covers every major topic in the science of economics. It is also one of the most convincing indictments of socialism and statism ever penned. When it first appeared in 1949, it ignited an eruption of critical acclaim.

There's no place like home. Or is there? After an 'incident' one wet Friday night where he is found walking naked through the streets of Cambridge, Professor Andrew Martin is not feeling quite himself. Food sickens him. Clothes confound him. Even his loving wife and teenage son are repulsive to him. He feels lost amongst an alien species and hates everyone on the planet. Everyone, that is, except Newton, and he's a dog. Who is he really? And what could make someone change their mind about the human race?
