Joshua Guess

The crew of the Fallen Angel lived through hell. Months after an invasion powerful enough to threaten all human life in the galaxy, they find themselves in a renamed ship with a new mission to destroy some of the enemy's more insidious weapons.
When one of their own is kidnapped, Grant Stone and his crew will stop at nothing to get him back. Along the way they'll find new friends and enemies, confront conspiracies that will shake the Alliance, and fight their way across half of known space. All the while, Dex must struggle to survive on an alien world while his friends race against time to find him and bring him home.
In the process, everything changes. No crew can win every fight or walk away without scars even in victory. These new struggles will test Grant and his people--his family--beyond anything they've faced before.

Grant Stone and his crew just want to be left alone. They fly at the edges of Alliance space, surveying new systems far from the problems that brought them all together.

Faced with an existential danger, Grant will lead his team into the far reaches of unknown space to keep the brewing conflict from exploding into all-out war.

Ellen Pao

The bold and fearless account of the discrimination case that "has blown open a conversation about the status of women" in the workplace (The New York Times)
In 2015, Ellen K. Pao sued a powerhouse Silicon Valley venture capital firm, calling out workplace discrimination and retaliation against women and other underrepresented groups. Her suit rocked the tech world—and exposed its toxic culture and its homogeneity. Her message overcame negative PR attacks that took aim at her professional conduct and her personal life, and she won widespread public support—Time hailed her as "the face of change." Though Pao lost her suit, she revolutionized the conversation at tech offices, in the media, and around the world. In Reset, she tells her full story for the first time.
The daughter of immigrants, Pao was taught that through hard work she could achieve her dreams. She earned multiple Ivy League degrees, worked at top startups, and in...

Aether of Night

Aether of Night

Brandon Sanderson

Aether of Night is an unpublished, non-canon Cosmere novel. It is also the tenth novel written by Brandon Sanderson.
It follows a character named Raeth as he pretends to be his identical twin, taking over the throne of the Imperium and attempting to lead his people to victory against a foe they don’t understand and have little hope of defeating. “Aether” was a term used as part of the magic system.
The original version of the book was abandoned, as Sanderson felt that it didn’t strike a consistent tone between the almost Shakespearean comedy aspects and the utter destruction of the world. As a result, elements were incorporated into later Cosmere works, such as “Decay” becoming the Shard Ruin in the Mistborn series.
It remains possible that the book will be published in some form, but it would be a complete rewrite. Sanderson has mentioned that the general mechanics of the magic system would be retained. A substance called “Aether” appeared in Oathbringer, leaving the door open for the story to take place in the Cosmere.
