The Deathdancers have broken contact with every government and gone rogue. ConglomMilitia wants the Kali captured and Seedaus erased. When Cross creates an ultimate weapon—the Singularity, he sets out to hunt the Kali and bring her back—in pieces if need be. Now the Blackjacks must complete a suicide mission. Sneak onto the Raptor, ConglomMilitia’s super destroyer, destroy the Singularity before Cross unleashes its devastation on the Kali, and escape before anyone notices. Jump onboard the Warlock and into a deep space adventure with the Blackjacks, as they face off against overwhelming odds and discover that burning bridges you’re standing on is usually a bad idea!
Sam and Katie find a stray dog and make a big mistake, but it's hard to make amends--how can you apologize to a dog? A dirty, skinny dog shows up in Sam and Katie's neighborhood. They start to follow it, and they don't like what they see: The Wilson sisters yell at it because it goes in their garden and the Tracy twins chase it on their bikes and throw things at it. Sam and Katie want the dog to know they'll be its friends. They think it should have a name. Most of all, they want it to like them. But then they do something thoughtless, and after that, it's hard to make things right, especially because the dog now won't come near them. How they earn the dog's trust, help it find its place in their town and how it gets its name, makes for a heartwarming story told in two voices using prose and poetry. Blue Daisy is illustrated with 20 black-and-white illustrations and includes recipes for dog biscuits and snickerdoodles. Now available in paperback.

Now, with bounties on their heads, and Conglom Industrial hunting them, Jack and his crew must pilot his sentient ship, the Warlock, through some of the most dangerous parts of space. Outgunned and outnumbered, Jack has one secret weapon his enemies didn’t count on-magic.
