Salvage Rat—An excerpt
Salvage Rat—An excerpt Larry N. Martin
Star Force pilot and hero Wyatt McCoy left his medals and career behind after the Rim Wars, disillusioned and bitter when he learns the truths behind the conflict. He takes his converted gunship, the Nellie B, and heads to the Near Fringe, salvaging derelict ships and abandoned mining colonies. Dr. Beth Parker is a space archeologist, documenting the history of planetary expansion and colonization for Kalok Enterprises. A piece of alien technology embeds itself in Beth’s arm, giving her the ability to see the energy impressions of long ago people and events. When Beth uncovers proof of genocide that could bring down the big mining companies, she’s the target of assassins. Wyatt makes a split-second decision to intervene, launching them both into a high-stakes cat-and-mouse game.
Larry always gives you a great ride.
Salvage Rat (by Larry N. Martin) Blasts off as fast as the hero's gunship. From gunfights to intrigue. It's got all the ingredients for a Thriller with a hot splash of SciFi!
An intriguing premise - this sounds like a story with lots of opportunities for twists and turns!

Quiet Post (Preview)
Quiet Post (Preview) Stephen Goldin
The Quasiverse: A land that’s a combination of Oz, Wonderland, Discworld, and general surreality, where anything can happen and often does; a land of snow globe mines and french fries plantations; a land where bossy birds can have teeth and locks can be very particular about how you stick a key in them; a land where you never know what color the sky will be when you wake up in the morning and where murder victims can be only randomly dead.
Martia Rosenthal is escaping a bad love affair, and enlists for a diplomatic assignment in the Quasiverse. With the combination of her wealth and the position of sub-legate, she’s assured it will be a quiet post. But this bizarre world and the unusual nature of her friends, as well as her enemies, threatens to end her sanity--if not her life.

I'm honored to be able to include Nebula Finalist Stephen Goldin's Scavenger Hunt in my "select few" Group Giveaway. This vintage classic channels Barbarella while dishing out such delightfully diva-esque dialogue as "I'd turn positively green with envy, except then I'd clash with my own gown, so of course I won't" and "I've had three husbands since then... No, don't ask me what their names were, darling, I'm not an almanac..."

Excerpt of Some Can See
Excerpt of Some Can See JR Erickson
This is not a full-length novel. It is an excerpt from the novel, Some Can See.
The dead have stories to tell. Are you willing to listen?
On a sunny August morning, in 1935, thirteen-year-old Sophia Gray finds her friend Rosemary wandering in the woods. Rosemary’s yellow dress is tattered and stained, she walks with a strange lurch, and her eyes are vacant and glassy. She beckons to Sophia, desperate to show her something, and Sophia follows.
In an abandoned cabin, beneath a tattered blanket, Sophia discovers Rosemary’s body.
It was not Rosemary who led her there, but Rosemary’s ghost.

Fighting off a rampaging troll in the woods just to rescue her milk cow wasn't the first thing on her list today.
Neither was finding a male wood nymph who needed her help.
What didn't help was his attitude of being "Nature's gift to women", but his broken leg meant he was going to perish out there when the next troll came along.

Sigmund always believed that the only reality there is in the world is the one which we all perceive: waking up, paying the bills, being depressed and working to make a living. Although when comparing to others, he wondered why he and his family are always alone in the world: moving from place to place, knowing no one but his own mother and siblings, nor he has a clue of his ancestry's story. And when his mother is asked upon, she would always panic to change the subject; denying him of the answers he rightfully deserves.
But ALL SECRETS MUST EVENTUALLY BE BROUGHT TO LIGHT when one night he encounters the 'Stranger' that will alter his beliefs and start his journey towards discovering his family's mysterious and controversial history.

I knew exactly why I was still here. To haunt whoever had pushed me overboard.
My only problem was finding them. And if they weren't still alive, they had relatives.
Meanwhile, I kept amused by haunting the ship's passengers and crew. And the cruise line didn't have a problem with it. Their "haunted cruises" were a big hit. Full capacity for this old boat and its evening dinner cruises out beyond the harbor.
"Misstep Mary" they called me. Even had a faded photo of me blown up and cut out so passengers could take photos with me "haunting" them. Because they ruled my death accidental. But would I still be here if it was?
So I arranged for the Ghost Hunters to show up and solve this. Otherwise, there was no peaceful 'going into the light'. Getting revenge might be all I get...

Ellina doesn't trust the human, and not merely because he speaks the language of men. Men lie. In elvish, however, lying is impossible. In a moment of intuition, Ellina decides to give Venick a chance: learn elvish, reveal his truths, and she will set him free.
That is not, of course, what happens.
As Ellina and Venick come to know each other, their feelings start to shift. Then Venick uncovers a dark secret, and suddenly the fate of the elflands seems to rest in his hands. But will Venick risk his life to save an elf he's not allowed to love?

Vacation Amok by C. C. Brower
Vacation Amok by C. C. Brower Living Sensical
Some vacation. Not like I'd planned - or the brochures.
Now I'm in a space suit after some sort of freak accident. Lucky I knew how to get in one, and one was nearby. First time for everything.
But now, I had just so much air, and a huge gap to jump. Because the explosion left a big hole behind. Guess there's a first time for more than one thing...
Excerpt:
No power. Little air.
Deep space, off the trade routes.
Helluva way to start a vacation.
The explosion had happened in hyperspace. It threw us out of “warp” and we appeared in normal space several parsecs from where we could be found.
My problem was more immediate though. Power and Air existed on the other half of the ship.
Separated from me by a big hole that explosion had left...

Anti Life

The opposite of life isn't death; it's something far worse.
In an anarcho-capitalist future, space-based corporate settlements have replaced the State. Colonel John Alvarez, a fifteen-year veteran, is unwilling to waste more years leading missions into deep space. He wants to start over and make a new life with his wife and son.
But when a distress message from a distant research probe is received, Novos Corp reactivates Alvarez's contract. He must carry out one last mission, a rescue attempt. Unknown to Alvarez, however, is the hidden threat that awaits him, one that—if he cannot stop it—will doom humanity to a fate worse than death.

I picked this up to write a blurb then couldn't put it down! Really good SF about a future where Statists and Corporations are at war. It has a detailed and interesting outer space setting, an original take on warp speed and likeable characters. Great stuff.

Great descriptions and an unexpected ending.
Sounds so good! Can’t wait to read this one!

When Sue crash-lands back on Earth, she didn't know what to expect. What she found was a telepathic wolf pack, capable of reasoning and the dominant life form on the planet. They were in a fight for survival with the feral species of wolves, as well as the remnants of humankind.
In the first part of this, Sue learns to communicate and to travel with the pack as they fight and escape from the hunting ferals. In doing so, she fights alongside Tig, the hunting pack leader, to save both their lives.
What she wanted was to get back to the moon base to rescue her family. She didn't know how bad the collapse was.
But before she can get anywhere, she has to prove to the sentient wolf pack that she can be trusted. This means a "probe." Something no human has survived.

Danny knows the metal Cube is magic. Of course, when you're only 13, people tend to doubt statements to that effect. The draw the Cube in Uncle Ethan's home has on Danny is irresistable, causing the boy to take matters into his own hands.
When the Cube's magic is activated, not only Danny, but his entire family are pulled into another world.
Trapped in a society they don't understand, running from a madman who covets the power of the Cube, they set out to discover the way back home, finding adventure, excitement, and danger along the way. The question is, can they even get back home, or will they need to adjust to new lives in this place?

When the Cities Died, I Danced by C. C. Brower Living Sensical
A couple of days after the cities died, I was there. Dancing.
Whether it was appropriate or not, there was no one around to care.
I had things to celebrate and this was my way.
Because I and my family were still alive. And perhaps it was a wake for those who weren't.
It wasn't a sad occasion, but joyous.
...That was my reason for dancing. I was thankful. Grateful. To be alive. To have my family. To be able to enjoy this earth.

I was her closest friend. But didn't know she was dead.
Until I saw the full page ad in the paper advertising her funeral. And my company ran that ad - without my knowing it.
Another mystery was in how she died. No corpse, just an urn filled with ashes that was distributed over the harbor without any witnesses. Shown by a slick video played at her funeral.
No motive. Just a disappearance. The coroner's report from an upstate, rural county stated natural causes. For a young 20-something advertising executive.
But there were no details left unaccounted for. Funeral arrangements paid for in advance. Even the police chief said it was a closed case. That didn't stop Detective Johnson from being curious...

The next day he meets two women who visit his cabin, arriving out of the blue, literally. (Well, one arrived with pitched black darkness which filled his cabin and made her cough.)
These two have an offer for Stark. All he really wanted was to enjoy the small cabin and solitude so he could write his detective stories.
These ladies had another offer - to help them solve the reasons ghosts don't move on. Plenty of new inspiration for stories, decent pay, won't interrupt his writing schedule.
Of course, he could die doing it...

Code of Rainbow: Soaring Flame and the Dragon-transcending Magimal Weiqi Wang
This is the first book of a teen fantasy book series that nurtures the bloom of MAGIC in the soil of SCIENCE - something rarely attempted. The transition from magic to science will be bit by bit, so the early books do read like a "mainstream" magic fantasy.
Soarame has a pair of special eyes. He can see magic elements in this world, which are supposed to be invisible. This enviable gift of his could reveal the truth of the world, but it also puts him in danger.
Many animals in this world possess magic power, so they are called “magimals” - dragons as examples. Soarame fortunately got a baby magimal as his best friend, but they got into troubles together - troubles that were a lot bigger than dragons.
Could they survive?

Nothing like a thriller when the plan falls apart and the heroes have to wing it! Makes it all the harder for the reader to guess what is going to happen...
Fast and enjoyable.

Monticelli's original Italian has been translated to English for her Red Desert series, giving a charming flavor to the prose. Her characters are 3d, and her hard sci-fi setting is researched impeccably. Novella-length book one, "Point of no return," serves as an introduction, constructing the hooks that power future volumes and ramping up the tension and mystery.

"… and perhaps less than ninety years ago men and women lived in equality. The evidence on that point is entirely conclusive. The present matriarchy evolved by accident, not design. Ninety years ago entertainment and advertising were exclusively directed at satisfying a woman's whim. No product was sold without some sort of tie-in with women. Fiction, drama, television, motion pictures—all glorified a romantic thing called love. In that same period business was in the process of taking over government from statesmen and politicians.

A Pandemic Survivors Omnibus
A Pandemic Survivors Omnibus Living Sensical
Pandemics have a way of showing up over and over.
All throughout our history. And there is no good time for them to appear.
And so writers have imagined all the different outcomes and what-if's to explore all the things that could happen, that might happen.
In these works, we see our options, the many possible decisions we can make. No matter if it's in distant history, in a foreign land, across town, or down the street.
These stories were written about the survivors. Some are gruesome, some just unsettling. Some modern, some classic. While its said that fiction is used to educate as well as entertain - here's hoping your choices in "real life" are less deadly than the one's you read about here...

Cultural Theorist Seg Eraranat was ready to conquer his first new world, claim its riches, and return to his dying planet a hero.

Hunted by enemies across two dimensions, Seg and Ama will have to strike an uneasy alliance to survive. The fate of two worlds is in their hands.
Warp tech, military, romance and world-building all combine to make this a real page-turner.

To rescue a 12,000 year old ghost, you have to learn to breathe water.
Our next mystery to solve was the toughest yet. We thought ourselves prepared to deal with being submerged several hundred feet below the surface.
My question was how to communicate with something who was older than all civilization as we knew it. What did it have in common with our modern culture? How to talk through an energy shield built to withstand the pressures of that depth?
I didn't have long to wait after we arrived.
Because something pulled me out of that shield and wanted to talk with me right now - deep underwater, ready or not...

Shambleau by C. L. Moore
Shambleau by C. L. Moore Midwest Classics Press
HAD Northwest Smith, the famous outlaw of the spaceways, been able to foresee the future, he would not have shielded the frightened, scarlet-clad girl from the wild mob pursuing her through the narrow streets of Lakkdarol, Earth's last colony on Mars. "Shambleau! Shambleau!" the crowd cried with loathing and disgust, but Smith drove them off with his blaster and took the exhausted girl to his quarters. There was no hair upon her face — neither brows nor lashes; but what lay hidden beneath the tight scarlet turban bound around her head?
So begins one of the strangest, and possibly the most famous, of stories by C. L. Moore. When it first appeared "Shambleau" was acclaimed by readers, authors, and editors as the debut of a truly gifted talent...

The Autists by J. R. Kruze
The Autists by J. R. Kruze Living Sensical
Carol and Reggie were different. They thought different. Reggie could talk "the ears off a corn stalk." He was an expert on history, like a walking Wikipedia on ancient times (if people could stand to listen to him.) Carol hardly talked, but her hugs could tell you the world. She could solve quintic polynomial equations. And a 4x4 Rubic's cube with one hand.
They were autists. "Special needs" people. Savants, kind of.
They were perfect for each other. Or maybe not. So different.
Between them, they understood the universe.
It was no small surprise that they were part of the next stage in human evolution. The one that's already here. Of course they knew it. But most of humanity didn't...

Tesseracts fold time and space. I inherited the ability to both find and control them.
Unlimited access to all universes. Sort of.
Yea, freaky. I know too well how freaky.
So I spent my life on the move - through many times, and many spaces. Forgetting where and when I'd been wasn't an option. My salvation was mastering the trick of retracing my path. To find my original home, to find the love I'd lived so long without.
It wasn't just missing a normal childhood.
If I didn't figure out how to get my life back under control, I'd just be growing older.
Alone.
Without any home or family or lover to ever call my own.

Most people could never kill without regret.
I don't have that luxury. I'm an artificial creation who exists solely to follow the orders of a tyrannical maniac. Death is the only constant I know.
I want more, so I'm running.
What lies beyond the realm of my former master, presents a whole new set of problems, including a mistake that lands me at death's door. I accept that. Welcome it, really. For a relic of war, death is my inevitable release.
But fate is a fickle creature.
When a dragon saves me—a creature said to be long extinct—then offers me a chance at revenge, I don't know what to believe. Trust gets people killed, but something is different about this creature.
Will he give me the freedom I desire, or is my fate sealed when I agree to his terms?

But no one noticed, as usual.
The world felt more and more programmed. Or pre-programmed. Life had become a video game, a matrix-spawn. All around me thought this was normal
But no one considered that I would simply revolt.
Because I found out a secret. By visiting an old used book store. One where they somehow made a living selling used books over and over. There were no monitors there, no TV. Smartphones stayed in pockets, preferably off. This store even had a local jammer installed just to make sure people didn't interrupt other people.
That day, I found a secret. Written in print on an actual piece of paper.
It started a revolution. It pulled me out of "sync" - and so I was hunted...

A tender love story of a woman who struggles to reconcile her own need for independent and personal fulfillment with the feelings for a new man in her life. He's strong, a protector but is that what she needs or wants as she establishes her own place in the world.
Breanna's work is sweet and sexy and full of naughty! When you read her work you feel the desire and want to be taken into the Daddy Dom's arms and scolded like the bad little that you are!
Wonderful cover :)

And once I found her, we'd only have until sundown...

In the Blue, the world’s last city, all is not well.
Julia is stuck within its walls. She serves the nobility from a distance until she meets Lucas, who believes in fairytales that her world can’t accommodate. The Blue is her prison, not her castle, and she’d escape into the trees if she didn’t know that contamination and death awaited humanity outside.
But not everyone in the Blue is human, and not everyone can be contained.
Beyond the city’s boundaries, in the wild forests of the Red, Cameron has precious little humanity left to lose. As he searches for a lost queen, he finds an enemy rising that he thought long dead. An enemy that the humans have forgotten how to fight.
One way or another, the walls of the Blue are going to come down.

Love the cover! Cover is totally what made me click to read the blurb.
I tend to hesitate when blurbs have a female & male povs especially in teen fiction because of my reading preferences - but the premise is strong enough to make me want to read it. Search for a lost queen... intriguing! I've gone and picked up a copy.

But why was this troll out of his territory and why was he hunting her? Not just his hunger, that much was certain.
The troll needed food, but she had a secret message to deliver.
And that one message could prevent humans and fairies from losing a coming troll war...

***If the Matrix had a prequel, this would be it.***
Excerpt:
We were called to war. And all volunteers. Not for god or country but for our corporation.
The global one. The one we were all warned against. It came in the back door that had built into our culture. The China-Russia pact had founded it, and gradually its handouts and bribes co-opted all the governments until it was just the U.S. and a handful of holdouts that weren’t on board. Until they were.
Our job was simple. We coded. All day, all night. Jacked in and plugged in with all the nutrients we needed to keep us going...
