*2018 HUGO AWARD FINALIST FOR BEST NOVEL*

"John Scalzi is the most entertaining, accessible writer working in SF today." --Joe Hill, author of The Fireman

The first novel of a new space-opera sequence set in an all-new universe by the Hugo Award-winning, New York Times-bestselling author of Redshirts and Old Man's War

Our universe is ruled by physics. Faster than light travel is impossible--until the discovery of The Flow, an extradimensional field available at certain points in space-time, which can take us to other planets around other stars.

Riding The Flow, humanity spreads to innumerable other worlds. Earth is forgotten. A new empire arises, the Interdependency, based on the doctrine that no one human outpost can survive without the others. It's a hedge against interstellar war--and, for the empire's rulers, a system of control.

The Flow is eternal--but it's not static. Just as a river changes course, The Flow changes as well. In rare cases, entire worlds have been cut off from the rest of humanity. When it's discovered that the entire Flow is moving, possibly separating all human worlds from one another forever, three individuals--a scientist, a starship captain, and the emperox of the Interdependency--must race against time to discover what, if anything, can be salvaged from an interstellar empire on the brink of collapse.

"Fans of Game of Thrones and Dune will enjoy this bawdy, brutal, and brilliant political adventure" --Booklist on The Collapsing Empire

"Political plotting, plenty of snark, puzzle-solving, and a healthy dose of action...Scalzi continues to be almost insufferably good at his brand of fun but think-y sci-fi adventure." --Kirkus Reviews on The Collapsing Empire

"Scalzi is one of the slickest writers that SF has ever produced." --The Wall Street Journal on The Human Division

Nice small wallet, almost too small, ID pocket not very useful
Color: Two Tone - Cobalt Blue
It looks really nice and well-made, but the ID windowed pocket is too tight to easily get out your ID then you need to use it. No one lets you keep your ID in the wallet, so why bother with a clear window pocket?

Lots of Space for a Small Bag
Colorful and great! All Haven't been without a Coach bag since the early 1970s. I'm usually not fond of the signature bags, but this one is striking. Of course it is well made. The bag has two compartments that are large enough for checkbook & phone. It has 8 card holders, 2 smaller places for business & library cards, a place for folding money, a zipper middle compartment and 3 flat compartments for receipts, notes, etc that are all packed into a cool small bag. It comes with both a crossbody metal strap and a leather wrist strap.dd Often, I've found Coach credit card holders inside their bags are too small for credit cards. This bag has larger cardholders. Overall, I give it an A+.
