Exuberant after scoring a major victory against enemy

embarks on its new mission. Until the pirate network is

Hilldiggers: Asher, Neal
Two planets in the same solar system are locked in war,
when some kind of cosmic super-string is discovered. It
seems packed with alien technology, or even perhaps
life. And for safety it is stored - in four segments -
within a maximum-security space station. A female
research scientist falls pregnant on the station soon
after, and gives birth to quads. Then she commits
suicide. But why? By the war’s end, one planet is
devastated. It fell victim to the other’s incredible
hilldigger weaponry - so named as their blasts create
mountains. Meanwhile, the quads have reached adulthood,
and are gaining power in post-war society. One of them
has his sights set on claiming the hilldiggers and their
power for himself. But with what consequences for
humanity?

Alderscroft, the Wizard of London. Lord Alderscroft asks

The
Gossamer Mage: Czerneda, Julie E
Only in Tananen do people worship a single deity: the
Deathless Goddess. Only in this small, forbidden realm
are there those haunted by words of no language known to
woman or man. The words are Her Gift, and they summon
magic. Mage scribes learn to write Her words as
intentions: spells to make beasts or plants, designed to
any purpose. If an intention is flawed, what the mage
creates is a gossamer: a magical creature as wild and
free as it is costly for the mage. For Her Gift comes at
a steep price. Each successful intention ages a mage
until they dare no more. But her magic demands to be
used; the Deathless Goddess will take her fee, and mages
will die. To end this terrible toll, the greatest mage
in Tananen vows to find and destroy Her. He has yet to
learn She is all that protects Tananen from what waits
outside. And all that keeps magic alive.

engaged in the battle of a lifetime against the
expropriation of the Little Tuvu Hill. With dry and
polished prose, like the stones of her native Sardinia,
Clelia Farris takes us on adventures among the ruins of
a future marred by climate change ("A Day to
Remember") and in a haunting prison inhabited by
the enigmatic figure of "Rebecca." Collected
and translated into English for the first time, these
seven stories represent some of the greatest works from
one of Italy's best science fiction authors.

system, Khidr picks up a distress call from the

Pushing
Ice: Reynolds, Alastair
2057. Humanity has raised exploiting the solar system to
an art form. Bella Lind and the crew of her
nuclear-powered ship, the Rockhopper, push ice. They
mine comets. And they're good at it. The Rockhopper is
nearing the end of its current mission cycle, and
everyone is desperate for some much-needed R & R,
when startling news arrives from Saturn: Janus, one of
Saturn's ice moons, has inexplicably left its natural
orbit and is now heading out of the solar system at high
speed. As layers of camouflage fall away, it becomes
clear that Janus was never a moon in the first place.
It's some kind of machine - and it is now headed toward
a fuzzily glimpsed artifact 260 light-years away. The
Rockhopper is the only ship anywhere near Janus, and
Bella Lind is ordered to shadow it for the few vital
days before it falls forever out of reach. In accepting
this mission, she sets her ship and her crew on a
collision course with destiny - for Janus has more
surprises in store, and not all of them are welcome.

After a devastating galactic war, disgraced veteran
Ralston Muck ekes out a living as a bouncer at Last Stop

Divergence:
Cherryh, C J
The overthrow of the atevi head of state, Tabini-aiji,
and the several moves of enemies even since his
restoration, have prompted major changes in the
Assassins' Guild, which has since worked to root out its
seditious elements - a clandestine group they call the
Shadow Guild. With the Assassins now rid of internal
corruption, with the birth of Tabini's second child, and
with the appointment of an heir, stability seems to have
returned to the atevi world. Humans and atevi share the
space station in peaceful cooperation, humans and atevi
share the planet as they have for centuries, and the
humans' island enclave is preparing to welcome 5000
human refugees from a remote station now dismantled, and
to do that in unprecedented cooperation with the atevi
mainland.
