› Find signed collectible books: 'Against the Odds'
The worst has happened: Fleet is tearing itself apart. Some of the mutineers see injustice in the unequal spread of the rejuvenation drugs that offer virtual immortality to the rich; others are simply thirsty for power, or for blood. The Loyalists, meanwhile, fight desperately to preserve the rule of law in Familias Regnant space. But when Esmay Suiza-Serrano is unceremoniously booted out of Fleet, the apparent victim of Family politics, she has no idea of the whirlwind of conflict into which she is about to be drawn. As the noose tightens on galactic civilization, great battles will be fought and greater loves affirmed ...and old friends will meet their destinies. [via]

For fans of fast-paced adventure and compelling characters, the military science fiction of Nebula Awardwinning author Elizabeth Moon is the perfect choice.
The brilliantly unorthodox Kylara Vatta, black-sheep scion of Vatta Transport Ltd., one of the galaxys wealthiest merchant houses, is a heroine like no other, blessed with a killer instinct for business and for battle. Now, in the aftermath of cold-blooded assassinations that have left her parents dead and the Vatta shipping empire shattered, Kylara faces her greatest challenge yet.
There is a time for grief and a time for revenge. This is decidedly the latter. Placing her cousin Stella in command of the trading vessel Gary Tobai, Ky embarks aboard the captured pirate ship Fair Kaleen on a twofold mission: to salvage the family business and to punish those responsible for the killings . . . before they strike again.
Since the network providing instantaneous communication between star systems has been sabotaged, news is hard to come by and available information impossible to trust. But as she travels from system to system, with Stella a step behind, Ky pieces together the clues and discovers a conspiracy of terrifying scope, breathtaking audacity, and utter ruthlessness.
The only hope the independent systems and merchants have against this powerful enemy is to band together. Unfortunately, because she commands a ship known to belong to a notorious pirateher own relative Osman Vatta, whom she killed for his part in her parents deathsKy is met with suspicion, if not outright hostility. Rumors swirl about her intent, her very identity. Soon even Stella begins to question her cousins decisions and her authority to make them.
Meanwhile, the conspiracy Ky hunts is hunting her in turn, with agents insinuated into every space station, every planetary government, every arm of the military, and every merchant houseincluding her own. Before she can take the fight to the enemy, Kylara must survive a deadly minefield of deception and betrayal.

In a far-flung capitalistic empire among the stars, generations of colonization without a single contact with an intelligent, non-human species have reduced the colonial process to a franchise system. Amid the abuses of the system which inevitably follow, an old woman decides not to leave when her failed colony is evacuated, thinking the freedom to live alone and die in peace is worth any risk. In this entertaining but suspenseful first-contact novel, Elizabeth Moon's apt depiction of the interaction between old and young plays counterpoint to the interaction between human and alien. [via]

Kylara Vatta is the only daughter in a family full of sons, and her fathers only child to buck tradition by choosing a military career instead of joining the family business. For Ky, its no contest: Even running the prestigious Vatta Transport Ltd. shipping concern cant hold a candle to shipping out as an officer aboard an interstellar cruiser. Its adventure, not commerce, that stirs her soul. And despite her familys misgivings, there can be no doubt that a Vatta in the service will prove a valuable asset. But with a single error in judgment, it all comes crumbling down.
Expelled from the Academy in disgraceand returning home to her humiliated family, a storm of high-profile media coverage, and the gaping void of her own futureKy is ready to face the inevitable onslaught of anger, disappointment, even pity. But soon after opportunitys door slams shut, Ky finds herself with a ticket to ride and a shot at redemptionas captain of a Vatta Transport ship.
Its a simple assignment: escorting one of the Vatta fleets oldest ships on its final voyage . . . to the scrapyard. But keeping it simple has never been Kys style. And even though her father has provided a crew of seasoned veterans to baby-sit the fledgling captain on her maiden milk run, they cant stop Ky from turning the routine mission into a risky venturein the name of turning a profit for Vatta Transport, of course.
By snapping up a lucrative delivery contract defaulted on by a rival company, and using part of the proceeds to upgrade her condemned vehicle, Ky aims to prove shes got more going for her than just her familys famous name. But business will soon have to take a backseat to bravery, when Kys change of plans sails her and the crew straight into the middle of a colonial war. For all her commercial savvy, its her military training and born-soldiers instincts that Ky will need to call on in the face of deadly combat, dangerous mercenaries, and violent mutiny. . . . [via]
