From the award-winning, bestselling author of Ender’s Game, comes The Worthing Chronicle "No one saw the brief flare in the star named Argos; it would be years before astronomers would connect the Day of Pain with the End of Worthing. And by then the change was done, the worlds were broken, and the golden age was over." If you would be a God, you must pay the price. Jason Worthing was a telepath, and the best of the ark captains sent to conquer and seed humankind anew on a hundred new worlds. He vowed that his new-world would be different from the stagnant one he had fled. He established his colonists and his descendants; and when he was sure that they would survive, he sealed himself in the last somec chamber in all the galaxy, triggered to awaken him when his world had built a new civilization. But using somec to disturb and manipulate the natural course of life cultivated dangers of its own. Worthing slept for fifteen thousand years. And when he awoke from his frozen slumber, it was to a future he had never dreamed of. Corrupt forces had emerged and a strange form of mind reading had been carried down to other generations. In a profound tale that spans thousands of years and barren lands, Jason tries to reconcile the past with the present, amidst those who lost their memories entirely and dreams that bring strange, disturbing visions of the past. Reflecting on the arrival and purpose of pain and sorrow, The Worthing Chronicle is a gripping science fiction tale that considers communal experiences of joy emerging from suffering in deconstructed worlds.

A couple hatches a highly dubious scheme to put the spark back in their marriage in this independent comedy drama. Annie (Katie Aselton) and Darren (Dax Shepard) have been married for seven years, and they love each other as much as the day they were wed; they're affectionate, have fun together, and enjoy games such as crossword puzzle races. They would seem to have a perfect relationship, except for one thing -- they haven't had sex in ages, and seem to have lost all interest in making love with one another, no matter how they try to put each other in the mood. Hoping to put some adventure back into their lives, Annie and Darren come up with an unusual idea -- they each get one night in which they're free to find someone and have sex with them, scot-free. But is this going to help their relationship, or is it just going to turn a small problem into a big problem?
