Summary
In a world where everyone gets their soul-marks before their twenties, Detective Gavin Reed, 37, is still mark-less. As he finally resigned to the possibility of living the rest of his life alone, one RK900 android shows up at his precinct, asking for a partnership.
Some may think of it as destiny. Everyone taught him that fate is never wrong.
But there must have been a margin of error, could it?“Maybe we can work a way to avoid you thinking of it as a disgrace, Detective”
“You’re saying it right after breaking a hinge of my door and violating the privacy of this sacred house”- Language:

Summary
Sure, he’s not the best detective in the precinct, and sometimes having Nines for a partner still catches him off guard a little. But two years after the Revolution, Gavin Reed thinks he’s doing pretty damn well for himself.
Then someone tries to kill his brother.

Summary
Slowly, like the trickling warmth of the tide coming in, the flush rises in Gavin's cheeks. He doesn't answer, just stomps away as belligerently as he can with two dozen eggs nestled in his apron, while Tina and Chris exchange their animated chatter. Spellbound still, Nines follows Gavin with his eyes until he stomps into the staff entrance and disappears from sight.
Two different things, what Nines is meant to do and what he has come here for.
I came here for you, he thinks.

Summary
Hob saw two things immediately, obvious as anything, in what he felt distantly sure must be the wrong order.
The stranger was surpassing handsome: tall as he was, but lean where Hob was broad, with pale skin, black hair as long as a maiden’s, eyes as sharp and bright as the bite of water in winter, and a mouth that made him think, suddenly and irrationally, of wild roses; and more was the pity for all of it, because the other thing, the thing Hob ought to have noticed first, was that he was staring at Hob like he meant to kill him.
In which Hob and Dream make poor first impressions, become fuck buddies, and, somewhere along the way, start trying to save one another. Out of friendship, of course. A love story.

Summary
"The Corinthian was a monster, nothing but tongue and teeth, and Hob was an unfortunate victim. Hob, however, was all too happy sticking his hand inside the lion’s mouth."
Even after thirty years, the Corinthian continues to struggle with his re-creation. He distracts himself with blood and violence, but the distraction soon comes to a halt when he meets Hob Gadling, his Lord's seemingly indifferent friend.

Summary
Clifford Unger opened his eyes.
The gun was still there. Lisa's heart monitor beeped away. But he hadn't fired the gun yet. He hadn't fired because he suddenly knew what was about to happen. Or what could happen if seemingly inconsequential choices were made, like taking a few seconds too long or turning down a different corridor.
They weren't memories exactly. It was impossible how to describe them, but what was important was the information he got from them. He knew what to do. He knew how to save himself and his BB.

Summary
Markus ordered "no man left behind", so all functional androids are being woken up.
Including the only existing RK900 model, built to succeed Connor, to fulfill the mission he failed, and never, ever turn deviant himself.But when the cracks and fissures in the prototype crash against his new partner's internalized issues and blatant needs, sharp edges fit into painful gaps surprisingly well, and maybe unlikely parts can become more than their sum, and save the world. Well. Or at least lead to really hot sex.

Summary
People didn’t like Gavin Reed. Gavin Reed didn’t like people. It went together like gin and tonic, you can’t have one without the other. Fate decided that Nines hated him and he hated Nines and so they kept playing their game by these set rules, never questioning the absurdity.
Maybe it was a coincidence that six months into their partnership, Gavin distinctly remembered rules are meant to be broken. It turned Gavin into pretending to dislike Nines. On the flip side, it turned Nines into a dense idiot with a crush, unable to grasp the concept of love. Both in utter denial.
Gravity works against them, draws them closer at a frightening pace. The android appears less opposed to it. How long will it take Gavin to realize he has to pull the door and stop pushing it like an imbecile?

Summary
“I’ll guard you for a night,” Hob says, “and say I please you, you can either pay me for a day’s work, or keep me on ‘til you reach where you’re going.”
“Do you know the way to Canterbury?” the lord asks, and Hob nods.
“Oh, yes. It’s a few days’ ride, not more than three or four, by my memory.”
“Then you shall have three days to please me, Robert Gadling.”
In 1389, known mercenary and bandit Hob Gadling offers to escort a strange lord to Canterbury, and wagers that he can guess the man's name in three days.

Summary
The famous Italian short story 'La Realtà di Tutto' is the tragic tale of two men who fall in love in the rolling hills of Calabria and are then separated by forces beyond their control. Nicolo di Genova- one of the few openly gay actors in cinema - has spent years trying to adapt it into a film, and he has assembled the best in the business to help him shepherd the film to success. There's only one thing missing just weeks from day one of shooting: the other leading man.
When Joseph Al-Kaysani - a moderately successful comedian - is cast in what Variety calls, 'the most hotly anticipated film on Netflix's docket,' and what industry insiders call, 'that gay mafia movie,' it's a complete surprise. Joseph is best known for his unflinchingly honest storytelling style, but there's one thing he's never shared with his audience or his family - he is gay.
But Joe isn't the only one with secrets.

“Why are you helping me?” Nicolo asked, his throat croaking in protest. They had been sitting before a fire, just like the one they are before now. He remembered trying to sound fierce, but what came out was barely a mewl.
“Because you needed it. . .” Yusuf answered. He was cutting up the meat of a small catch he managed to capture that day and giving the larger portion to Nicolo. “If I was in the same situation, I would hope someone would carry my burden and help me as well.”

Or that time in the 11th century when Nicolo and Yusuf try to find their way back home. Set 920 years before the first installment.
