Can a proud and warlike people find common cause
with their alien conquerors in the face of a greater danger? That's the question
that military SF ace Flint (1633) and two-time Nebula Award finalist Wentworth
(This Fair Land) ask in this thought-provoking far-future novel. After defeating
the human species, some of the sea lion-like Jao consider finishing off the job
through mass asteroid strikes. But the young Aille, newly arrived commander of
Jao Ground Forces, seeks to win over the humans not only by showing them the
threat posed to all intelligent life by the Ekhat, the elder race that raised
the Jao to sentience, but also by trying to forge bonds between the vanquishers
and the vanquished. The authors excel at describing how human and Jao customs
clash, allowing the reader to discover along with the characters the core
beliefs of each society and how these beliefs could be adjusted and harmonized
with one another. The Ekhat presents a truly alien threat of the sort that could
well merge two belligerent societies into one, not just out of fear but through
ties of blood and honor. Building to an exhilarating conclusion, this book cries
out for a sequel. --Publisher's Weekly |

The Imperium Game |
Kerickson is the main programmer of the Imperium Game, a three-dimensional
recreation of the Roman Empire, complete with a slave market, public baths,
gladiatorial combat, and a pantheon of ingeniously programmed deities. The
Game is incredibly popular, exciting and flawless-or so it seemed, until the
god programs unexpectedly began to exceed their parameters. |

Black on Black |
Rescued from a slave market by a human trader and raised as his son, one
question has haunted Heyoka Blackeagle through the years: who-and what-is
he? He feels human, indeed he feels like a somewhat alienated member of
his father's tribe. So what if he is seven feet tall, furry, and equipped
with retractable claws? Human is as human does...Right? |
|
House of Moons |

Moonspeaker herself. |
