War: Agent Cormac: Neal Asher
When one of Erebus's wormships kills millions on the
world of Klurhammon for no tactical reason and the AI
entity controlling the lethal Jain technology attacks
the Polity, it falls to Agent Cormac to figure out why.
But, as further attacks ensue, it brings some of the
most dangerous individuals in the Polity to the front
lines of the war, including Mr. Crane, the indefatigable
brass killing machine, and Orlandine, a vastly augmented
haiman who herself controls Jain technology as she seeks
both allies and a weapon of appalling power. Meanwhile,
with death and destruction on the horizon, scientist
Mika is kidnapped and forced to wake the makers of the
Jain technology from their five-million-year slumber.
But are Erebus's attacks not erratic and instead
completely planned out? And could that spell the end of
the Polity?

edges of the Unknown Regions, a threat to the Empire is
taking root - its existence little more than a glimmer,
its consequences as yet unknowable. But it is troubling

Emperor knows it's not the first time Vader and Thrawn

When she began writing in the 1960s, Ursula K. Le Guin
was as much of a literary outsider as one can be: a

"enre" literature as unserious, and a
westerner living far from fashionable East Coast
publishing circles. The interviews collected here -
spanning a remarkable forty years of productivity, and
covering everything from her Berkeley childhood to Le
Guin envisioning the end of capitalism - highlight that
unique perspective, which conjured some of the most
prescient and lasting books in modern literature.

For
the Killing of Kings: Howard Andrew Jones
Their peace was a fragile thing, but it had endured for
seven years, mostly because the people of Darassus and
the king of the Naor hordes believed his doom was
foretold upon the edge of the great sword hung in the
hall of champions. Unruly Naor clans might raid across
the border, but the king himself would never lead his
people to war so long as the blade remained in the hands
of his enemies. But when squire Elenai's aging mentor
uncovers evidence that the sword in their hall is a
forgery she's forced to flee Darassus for her life, her
only ally the reckless, disillusioned Kyrkenall the
archer. Framed for murder and treason, pursued by the
greatest heroes of the realm, they race to recover the
real sword, only to stumble into a conspiracy that leads
all the way back to the Darassan queen and her secretive
advisors. They must find a way to clear their names and
set things right, all while dodging friends determined
to kill them - and the Naor hordes, invading at last
with a new and deadly weapon.

Edition: Ursula K. Le Guin and Brian Attebery
This fourth volume in the
Library of America's definitive Ursula K. Le guin

ecological catastrophe living in a future Napa Valley,
Always Coming Home (1985) is an utterly original
tapestry of history and myth, fable and poetry,
story-telling and song. Prepared in close consultation
with the author, this expanded edition features new
material added just before her death, including for the
first time two "missing" chapters of the Kesh
novel Dangerous People. The volume concludes with a
selection of Le guin's essays about the novel's genesis
and larger aims, a note on its editorial and publication
history, and an updated chronology of Le guin's life and
career.
