Grave
(Queen of the Dead): Michelle Sagara
Emma and her friends have survived the Necromancers sent
to the city to kill them. They've gone to ground in a
cottage north of the city, but time is not on their
side. There are no barriers that can keep the dead out,
and the dead obey their Queen. It's only a matter of
time before they're found. Nathan has been blessed by
the Queen of the Dead. She has granted him a physical
body. He can eat, he can breathe, he can speak and be
heard. The Queen calls this resurrection. Nathan calls
it Hell. The living think he's alive. He's not. He's
trapped in the citadel that the Queen of the Dead calls
home. Emma wants to free him. To do that she has to
survive long enough to reach the City of the Dead, and
face its ancient Queen. But the city of the dead is the
heart of the Queen's stronghold - and her power. Emma
can't do it alone. She's not alone. But even with
hunters and her own dead at her side, what hope does she
have against a woman who has lived so long, and grown so
powerful, she's almost a god?

Infinity's Illusion:
Richard
Farr
After narrowly surviving an encounter with the
Architects, Daniel Calder experiences visions of global
destruction, dreamlike moments of insight, and vivid
"memories" of a meeting with a famous
scientist - none of which ever happened. When he and his
sister, Morag Chen, are attacked by unknown assailants
deep in the cavernous city of the I'iwa cave dwellers,
they must escape with an enigmatic, centuries-old
mathematical calculation. Time is running out. All signs
point to the final "Anabasis," when the Babel
myth will reach its terrible culmination. But thousands
of miles of hazardous jungle and unforgiving ocean lie
between the siblings and their one slim chance to fight
back. As they undertake their perilous journey, the
apocalypse seems imminent: scores of vanished believers,
global telecom failures, societies in chaos. The
Architects have set the stage for their conquest, and
Morag and Daniel - armed only with a list of mysterious
numbers and the dreams of an aging astrophysicist - seem
hopelessly outmatched.

Blood
Binds the Pack: Alex Wells
War is coming to Hob Ravani's world. The company that
holds it in monopoly, TransRift Inc, has at last found
what they're looking for - the source of the power that
enables their Weathermen to rip holes in space and time,
allowing the interstellar travel all of human society
now takes for granted. And they will mine every last
grain of it from Tanegawa's World no matter the cost. Since Hob Ravani used her witchy powers to pull a
massive train job and destroy TransRift Inc's control on
this part of the planet, the Ghost Wolves aren't just
outlaws, they're the resistance. Mag's miner collective
grows restless as TransRift pushes them ever harder to
strip the world of its strange, blue mineral. Now Shige
Rollins has returned with a new charge - Mr Yellow, the
most advanced model of Weatherman, infused with the
recovered mineral samples and made into something
stranger, stronger, and deadlier than before. And Mr
Yellow is very, very hungry.

may be in jeopardy.
Chris Holt, working in his office at the Space Resources
Corporation, discovers that one of the asteroids he is
surveying for mining is actually not an asteroid at all
but a derelict spaceship. The word gets out and soon the
world's powers are competing to explore and claim for
themselves the secrets that it holds. What they don't
know is that across the galaxy, a war has been underway
for millennia. A war between alien civilizations that
have very different ideas about what should be done
about emerging spacefaring civilizations like our own.
The artificial intelligence resident in the derelict
Holt discovered has been in our solar system since
before the dawn of human civilization, watching, waiting
and keeping quiet lest the interstellar war return and
wipe out the sentient race that now resides there -
humanity. And that war might soon be again coming to our
front door. The truth can only be discovered on Methone,
a tiny, egg-shaped moon of the planet Saturn. Who will
get there first? And will it be in time?

Star
Trek: Discovery: Drastic Measures: Dayton Ward
It is 2246, ten years prior to the Battle at the Binary
Stars, and an aggressive contagion is ravaging the food
supplies of the remote Federation colony Tarsus IV and
the eight thousand people who call it home. Distress
signals have been sent, but any meaningful assistance is
weeks away. Lieutenant Commander Gabriel Lorca and a
small team assigned to a Starfleet monitoring outpost
are caught up in the escalating crisis, and bear witness
as the colony's governor, Adrian Kodos, employs an
unimaginable solution in order to prevent mass
starvation. While awaiting transfer to her next
assignment, Commander Philippa Georgiou is tasked with
leading to Tarsus IV a small, hastily assembled group of
first responders. It's hoped this advance party can help
stabilize the situation until more aid arrives, but
Georgiou and her team discover that they're too late -
Governor Kodos has already implemented his heinous
strategy for extending the colony's besieged food stores
and safeguarding the community's long-term survival.

Time
Shadows: Deborah D. Moore
Morgan, a powerful 800-year-old sorceress, wants to make
amends for the bad things she's done during her long
life. She has perfected a spell that opens a gateway to
the past - the only problem is that she can't return to
a time she's already lived through. If she does, both
her younger spirit and her current form would cease to
exist. The only solution is to convince someone to
travel back for her - someone that wouldn't be missed if
things went wrong. Sage Aster doesn't really believe
that Morgan can send her back to the past, so as payment
for the kindness Morgan showed her when she was homeless
and alone, Sage agrees to the time travel experiment.
She is then stunned to find herself transported back to
1912 aboard the doomed Titanic. Again and again Sage is
sent back to different timelines, never quite knowing
what she is supposed to accomplish - or how to make
things right.

Zero
Day: Ezekiel Boone
The world is on the brink of apocalypse. Zero Day has
come. The only thing more terrifying than millions of
spiders is the realization that those spiders work as
one. But among the government, there is dissent: do we
try to kill all of the spiders, or do we gamble on
Professor Guyer's theory that we need to kill only the
queens? For President Stephanie Pilgrim, it's an easy
answer. She's gone as far as she can - more than two
dozen American cities hit with tactical nukes, the
country torn asunder - and the only answer is to believe
in Professor Guyer. Unfortunately, Ben Broussard and the
military men who follow him don't agree, and Pilgrim,
Guyer, and the loyal members of the government have to
flee, leaving the question: what's more dangerous, the
spiders or ourselves?
