Galactic Hellcats
Ki, a quick-witted thief, inherits a high-speed solo-flyer. Selling it could get her off the streets, but she's not that practical. Then she meets Margot, a lonely ex-soldier who impulsively spent her last paycheck on the same kind of flyer. Margot hopes Ki will be a friend; Ki sees her as a quick way to food money. When their lunch date escalates into a trip to planet Ratana, Margot is arrested, and Ki pulls in Zuleikah, a bored rich local, to stage a jailbreak. Together, they free Margot and then make the wild choice to "rescue" Prince Thane from his royal duties. Now, this crew of misfits is tearing across the universe, dodging repo men, authorities, and warring governments as they carve out their own place among the stars.

It's 2112 and war between nations has become a spectator sport.

This year, however, an enterprising company has made it possible for ordinary citizens to bet their lives on their country's team. Winning players will become national heroes, but losers will be responsible for the deaths of millions of their fellow citizens. For North America's talented star player, Megan Mori, death can't come soon enough. Haunted by the loss of her daughter, which she blames on her own government, she has nothing more to lose and no one to fight for. But as the games begin, it becomes clear that a much more sinister agenda is unfolding, and Megan will need to rally her fellow gamers against a threat that could end humanity as they know it.

The Clingerman Files
Widely acclaimed as one of the first successful female science fiction authors, Mildred Clingerman returns with the exciting follow up to her 1961 science fiction collection, A Cupful of Space.

Clingerman's new anthology, The Clingerman Files, includes all of her originally published stories; The Day of the Green Velvet Cloak, Mr. Sakrison's Halt, Wild Wood, The Little Witch of Elm Street and many other favorites. Also included are previously unpublished works; Top Hand, Tribal Customs, The ...
