On Disinformation
The effort to destroy facts and make America ungovernable didn’t come out of nowhere. It is the culmination of seventy years of strategic denialism. In On Disinformation, Lee McIntyre shows how the war on facts began, and how ordinary citizens can fight back against the scourge of disinformation that is now threatening the very fabric of our society.
The Night Land
Humankind’s survivors huddle below Earth’s frozen surface in a fortress city under siege by enormous slugs and spiders and malevolent “Watching Things” from another dimension. When an unnamed protagonist receives a telepathic distress signal from a woman whom he’d once loved in a previous incarnation, he sets off on an ill-advised rescue mission into the Night Land.
