But Bill, a Technical Fertilizer Operator from a planet of farmers, wasn't interested in honor-he was only interested in two things: his chosen career, and the shapely curves of Inga-Maria Calyphigia. Then a recruiting robot shanghaied him with knockout drops, and he came to in deep space, aboard the Empire warship Christine Keeler. And from there, things got even worse...
From the sweltering fuse room aboard the Keeler, where he loses an arm while blasting a Chinger spaceship, to the Department of Sanitation far below the world-city of Helior, where he finds peace, job security, and unlimited trash...here is Bill, a pure-hearted fool fighting a deluxe cast of robots, androids, and aliens in a never-ending losing battle to preserve his humanity while upholding the glory of the Empire.

Find This Book
› Find signed collectible books: 'The Kraken Wakes'Book summary:It started with fireballs raining down from the sky and crashing into the oceans' deeps. Then ships began sinking mysteriously and later 'sea tanks' emerged from the deeps to claim people. For journalists Mike and Phyllis Watson, what at first appears to be a curiosity becomes a global calamity. Helpless, they watch as humanity struggles to survive now that water - one of the compounds upon which life depends - is turned against them. Finally, sea levels begin their inexorable rise. "The Kraken Wakes" is a brilliant novel of how humankind responds to the threat of its own extinction and, ultimately, asks what we are prepared to do in order to survive. [via]

In the course of practicing deep-space medicine, that staff has seen more than its share of challenges--from plagues caused by cafeteria food, to cafeteria food that resembles alien species. But now they are facing a disquieting new development: the terrifying Chief Psychologist, Dr. O'Mara, has been promoted to head of the hospital.
Worse, he's been given the job on a temporary basis, for just as long as it takes to train his own replacement. After that, he is up for mandatory retirement. Nobody at Sector General can begin to imagine what they'll do without him--assuming they last long enough to find out.More editions of Mind Changer:

The sphere is alien in origin, but has been controlled by man for millennia. A legend as old as the stars rules this constructed world: When the seventh seventh seventh human Heptarch is crowned, he will be the Kristos and will bring eternal salvation . . . or the destruction of the cosmos.
Patience is the only daughter of the rightful Heptarch, but she, like her father before her, serves the usurper who has destroyed her family. For she has learned the true rulers honor: Duty to ones race is more important than duty to ones self.
But the time for prudence has passed, and that which has slept for ages has awakened. And Patience must journey to the heartsoul of this planet to confront her destiny . . . and her world's.More editions of Orson Scott Card's Wyrms:

A Thousand Words for Strangerby Julie E. CzernedaISBN 0886777690 (0-88677-769-0)
Softcover, Daw Books
Find This Book
› Find signed collectible books: 'A Thousand Words for Stranger'Book summary:When she and her companion are attacked on the streets of Aourd, a backwater planet on the fringe of regular trade routes, Sira gets separated from her companion Barac. Her memory gone, she's left with only a strange compulsion to seek the help of Jason Morgan, an independent trader and starship captain. Sira's amnesia is so pervasive that she has even forgotten which species she belongs to. That species is the Clan, a telepathic race that has kept itself aloof, refusing to join in the Trade Pact formed by human beings and a host of other species. With some persuasion, Sira finds refuge on Morgan's ship, the Silver Fox. As they leave Aourd, the real quest for answers begins. Who has suppressed Sira's memories, and why is she running away?
A Thousand Words for Stranger begins slowly, with the introduction of characters and exposition necessary to establish the feel of Czerneda's universe. The book picks up steam as each revealed secret leads to a new mystery. It's an old writer's trick, but the Czerneda uses it to good effect, pulling the reader into a story that becomes more compelling with every page. The concept of an adventure story set in a multispecies universe with good aliens, bad aliens, and unexpected surprises along the way is, of course, hardly new. What matters, then, is how good a job the writer does in telling the story and portraying the characters. In A Thousand Words for Stranger, Julie Czerneda handles that task very well indeed. --Greg L. Johnson [via]

Softcover, Daw Books
Find This Book
› Find signed collectible books: 'To Trade the Stars'Book summary:With To Trade the Stars, Julie Czerneda wraps up her Trade Pact Universe trilogy, and, like a fine meal at Claws and Jaws, the multispecies restaurant owned by Huido Maarmatoo'kk, leaves her customers happy and satisfied. But, like most journeys, there are plenty of trials and tribulations along the way, especially for Sira Morgan (a.k.a. Sira di Sarc), now head of the Clan Council, and her human partner, Jason.
At first, their problems seem to amount to nothing more than the necessity of repairs to the Morgans' spaceship, the Silver Fox. A series of events at Huido's restaurant and on Drapskii, where Sira's sister Rael has taken her place as Mystic One to the Drapsk, alert everyone to the presence of imminent danger. That danger probably comes from the schemes of Ren Symon, a character from Jason Morgan's violent past. But there is also a problem in the M'hir, the realm that links the telepathically gifted Clan to each other. While Jason Morgan, Sector Chief Bowman, and others pursue Symon, Sira slowly comes to the realization that the actions of the cute yet misunderstood Drapsk may pose the greatest threat. In To Trade the Stars Czerneda once again shows a talent for leading the reader in one direction, while deftly taking the book in another. During the story, enemies become friends, places of safety become dangerous, and solutions arrive in unexpected ways. It's a fitting conclusion to an enjoyable series. --Greg L. Johnson [via]
