From the creators of the acclaimed TREES graphic novels, which are currently being adapted for television, comes something completely different.

As the 21st century dawns, a battle-hardened Authority turns its attention to a previously unchallenged class of villains--the invisible power brokers who manipulate the world''s political figureheads to advance their own selfish interests. The powers that be, however, didn''t get where they are by playing nice. They''ve made plans for every contingency--including teams of insanely powerful superhumans with sentient, city-sized, interdimensional spaceships. So when the Authority begins to seriously upset their hard-won networks of control, the backlash that results is as swift as it is devastating. But as bad as things get, these attacks are still comprehensible on a human scale. The same can''t be said for what is following in their wake. Taking over the groundbreaking title created by Warren Ellis and Bryan Hitch, renowned writer Mark Millar is joined by a host of comics'' greatest artists--including Frank Quitely, Dustin Nguyen, Art Adams and others--for this second volume of Absolute Authority, collecting for the first time the uncensored, original pages of Authority #13-29, Authority Annual 2000 and stories from Wildstorm Summer Special! Also includes an all-new introduction by Tim Miller, director of Deadpool.

A smart, tight, provocative techno-thriller straight out of the very near future—by an iconic visionary writer Some people call it "abyss gaze." Gaze into the abyss all day and the abyss will gaze into you. There are two types of people who think professionally about the future: foresight strategists are civil futurists who think about geo-engineering and smart cities and ways to evade Our Coming Doom; strategic forecasters are spook futurists, who think about geopolitical upheaval and drone warfare and ways to prepare clients for Our Coming Doom. The former are paid by nonprofits and charities, the latter by global security groups and corporate think tanks. For both types, if you''re good at it, and you spend your days and nights doing it, then it''s something you can''t do for long. Depression sets in. Mental illness festers. And if the "abyss gaze" takes hold there''s only one place to recover: Normal Head, in the wilds of Oregon, within the secure perimeter of an experimental forest. When Adam Dearden, a foresight strategist, arrives at Normal Head, he is desperate to unplug and be immersed in sylvan silence. But then a patient goes missing from his locked bedroom, leaving nothing but a pile of insects in his wake. A staff investigation ensues; surveillance becomes total. As the mystery of the disappeared man unravels in Warren Ellis''s Normal, Dearden uncovers a conspiracy that calls into question the core principles of how and why we think about the future—and the past, and the now. The ebook edition also includes four conversations with Warren Ellis about Normal, featuring Robin Sloan, Laurie Penny, Geoff Manaugh, and Lauren Beukes. The conversations originally appeared on tor.com.
