Enchantment
David, at age ten, had one passion in his young life: he loved rock-pooling, where he would spend hours on the beach searching for rock-pools that the receding tide had left behind. One day, though, an amazing sight met his eyes as a small face grinned back at him from the rock pool. Indicating that he should join them, he found himself sitting on soft sand surrounded by little people laughing and squealing in high-pitched voices. After being entertained, he was restored to the side of the rock pool where his bucket and net remained unattended. Wondering if this could be sunstroke, he blinked twice, but the little people had gone from his sight. On the way home, he pondered what had happened, resolving to tell nobody. As the years progressed, he finally left school and attended university to pursue a career as a marine biologist, giving him every opportunity to search the oceans of the world to find his newfound friends, but he had no sight or sound of them. Marriage to Stephanie and two children later, he was none the wiser; he even searched the Mariana Trench, but nothing showed up. On his son's eighteenth birthday he took the family to NASA Space Station in Florida, and there, one day on the beach, he disappeared from view. Police and tracker dogs searched the beaches but could not find any explanation for David's disappearance. A distraught Stephanie returned home to resume her life without David.

The Politics of Fear
Nothing strains the bonds of an alliance quite like peace and prosperity.The Defensive Compact was a fine idea at its inception-a supranational governing body created by treaty between 237 interplanetary civilizations. And all it took to bring the squabbling, self-interested, xenophobic parties to terms was a shared existential threat.That threat arrived in the form of the Dorylus Encephalon, a collective organism driven by its biological imperative to incorporate or eradicate every extrinsic genetic line it encounters. Thanks to the alliance, Compact forces managed to battle the Enceph to a stalemate. The resulting cease-fire shields Compact worlds from further Enceph incursion-as long as everyone abides by its terms.One-thousand years into the cessation of hostilities, those same Compact worlds have become hopelessly entangled in a corrupt web of economic, military, and cultural ties. The Compact Assembly is the bloated bureaucratic organ responsible for its administration. Mats Hyyland enjoys a permanent political appointment to the Assembly as Eminent Voice of the Human Diaspora-permanent being the operative word. In a vain attempt to cling to power, he achieves virtual immortality by cycling his consciousness through a series of increasingly volatile clones. When the Assembly is rocked by a high-profile political assassination, Hyyland's investigation leads him to uncover a conspiracy that threatens the very cease-fire holding the Enceph at bay. Hyyland's race to prevent that dire outcome sets him at odds with his fellow corrupt politicians, amoral corporate plutocrats, a parasitic priesthood, flamboyant pirates, self-righteous academics, an oversexed cartel queenpin, a dying bounty hunter, and a kleptosexual prostitute with a remarkable anatomic quirk.Politics, in other words.

Whispers from the Machine
For a century, Humanity has lived in a fragile "balance" with the all-powerful sentient AI, Heimer, a precarious peace enforced by the iron fist of the Ensemble Accords. But when a routine deep-space probe intercepts an impossible signal, it reveals the ultimate prize, a colossal, artificial construct known only as Stapledon Station.Now, the UN ship Kia-Kaha has made an arduous journey across the vast vacuum of space, carrying Humanity's finest minds and most guarded secrets. Among them is Xenoarchaeologist Clio Cormack, a brilliant but impulsive scientist with a history of pushing boundaries. She quickly realises the truth is buried beneath layers of political manoeuvring and scientific consensus: the station is hiding something ancient, vast, and deliberately concealed.When Clio ignores her dismissive superiors to follow a subtle anomaly, she pierces the cosmic veil, successfully leading the mission to a shocking discovery that proves her right... and plunges the entire crew into profound and unexpected danger.As the mission spirals into a desperate race to uncover the station's true purpose, Clio is forced to rely on her own reckless instincts and a dangerous alliance with a hidden source. Her choices threaten to expose the lies that bind humanity, ignite a war, and unleash a power that could consume the stars.They travelled light-years to find the truth, but they are about to learn the hardest lesson of all: Discovery has a price.
