I'm not sure specifically as there could be many works with this title. It might be about the process of thawing in a scientific or post - apocalyptic context, like the thawing of frozen landscapes or beings.
I don't think 'Shards' is a true story. It could be a piece of imaginative literature, crafted to entertain or convey certain ideas rather than recounting real events.
Since I don't know the specific 'the thaw science fiction' work, I can't say for sure. But it could be scientists who are studying the thawing process.
The 'Shards of Glass' short story might be about brokenness, both literal and metaphorical. It could center around a character who is dealing with the aftermath of something shattering in their life, like a relationship or a dream. Maybe the shards of glass represent the fragments of their former self or situation.
The 'A Crown of Shards' novel centers on a character's struggle to possess a unique and powerful crown. This leads them through a series of exciting and dangerous adventures, involving battles, alliances, and self-discovery.
