Sci-Fi and Fantasy bestsellers From Amazon.com The One Kingdom (The Swans' War, Book 1) Sean Russell's "The One Kingdom" is the stunning debut of a lovely and smart new fantasy series called The Swans' War. Politics and royal intrigue tear a land apart after the king dies without an heir, while ancient, dark sorcery still commands the peoples' hearts. Russell's deft characterizations and intricate plotting set this apart from standard fantasy fare. Perdido Street Station China Mieville immerses readers in a darkly potent world in "Perdido Street Station," which serves as something of a sequel to his critically acclaimed "King Rat." New Crobuzon is a dank, sprawling metropolis, part Dickensian London, part Gibsonian Tokyo. Eccentric scientist Isaac Dan der Grimnebulin is asked by a stranger to help him fly, but the results of his experiments are more than either bargained for. The Collected Stories of Arthur C.
