The Eyes of Tandor
When Tess Bailey, a skilled NASA technical writer living in the San Francisco Bay Area, learns that her chronic health issues may be due to a unique DNA structure that is also protecting her from the mysterious genetic alterations appearing to afflict decision-makers in Silicon Valley, she assembles a group of retired and outcast scientists and engineers to begin an experiment of epic proportions to discover if and why it's happening. Their incredible answer - that the targeted, DNA-altering energy wavelengths changing the very nature of the human species are coming from a parallel quantum universe - places her team in the crosshairs of Earth-based forces led by altered leaders profitting from a world held in a perpetual state of fear and war. To be taken seriously and mount a defense against this extraterrestrial threat, Tess must prove to the world that the Earth itself is under attack. On a parallel timeline in another quantum universe, Sern, a junior member of the ruling class on the planet Tandor, commits the unforgivable sin of questioning its' species tradition of imposing their Plan for Order in All Things on other sentient beings through manipulation of native genomes. Renowned for their ability to alter molecular structures with mental energy, elder Tandorans have controlled the development of their own young and sentient beings in other quantum realities since time immemorial until their encounter with the species on Earth that shows signs of resistance to their efforts and a movement on their own planet to overthrow the stifling restrictions of the Plan on their population. Gathering the mental energies of other dissatisfied Tandorans, Sern reaches out across the quantum barrier to the Earth-based species also facing a fight between the forces of freedom and control. In the greatest battle of their lives, Tess and Sern must find a way to prevail against all odds if their two species' are to survive.

Opal takes refuge in a deepening friendship with the telepathic alien as she steps into a busy, service-filled life.Among the hibernating Earthborn aboard the ship is Danielle, a U.S. army soldier tasked with ensuring the mission succeeds. She wakes to discover a gorgeous new world, predators she understands better than this new naive, anti-military culture, and a snarl of questions nobody can answer, including the one that keeps her awake at night: what do these aliens want? Danielle doesn't believe Opal's answers. Opal, who trusts the Semqu, tries to befriend Danielle. Suspicion, then a mutually incompatible course of duty, keep the two young women apart.

The Brushfires of Freedom
In a fractured America torn apart by civil war, the fight for the soul of the nation reaches its climactic stage in "The Brushfires of Freedom," the explosive sixth installment in Blaine L. Pardoe's Blue Dawn series. The United States has been divided into two nations-America and Newmerica-each claiming legitimacy over the country's destiny. As the war intensifies, former NSF Operative Caylee Leatrom embarks on a dangerous mission to assassinate the Newmerican Vice President before a Constitutional Convention can solidify the progressive regime's power. Meanwhile, Raul Lopez continues his crusade to liberate Social Quarantine camps where political dissidents are imprisoned and brutalized. General Trip Reager leads American forces in a strategic push to reclaim California from Newmerican control, while Major Judy Mercury employs brilliant psychological warfare tactics to capture St. Louis without bloodshed. As the military struggle progresses across multiple fronts, we witness the human cost of totalitarianism through characters like Braylon Ironsides, who barely survived the horrors of reeducation camps, and Deja Jordan, a Social Enforcer who becomes an unwitting pawn in a deadly power game. With the fate of the nation hanging in the balance, "The Brushfires of Freedom" examines the price of liberty and the dangers of unchecked government power in a taut, action-packed narrative that feels uncomfortably plausible in today's divided America. If you enjoyed "People's Republic," "American War," and "The Handmaid's Tale," you'll love "The Brushfires of Freedom."

Apollo Wept
In 2103, America's last fighter ace faces his strangest mission yet. Pen "Duke" Lencoln once ruled the skies in an F-61 Mustang, defending his country against overwhelming odds. Now, after a forced career change and the dismantling of America's military might, he's relegated to ferrying the elite between Earth and the lunar colonies-a far cry from the adrenaline-fueled combat that defined him. But when government archivists discover the Voyager probe carrying a plaque depicting only male and female humans, a scandal erupts. In New America, where 101 genders and 68 sexual orientations are federally recognized, this "erasure" constitutes the highest crime. To save humanity's cosmic legacy, Pen is selected to command the USS DESPAIR on an unprecedented mission: intercept Voyager beyond the solar system and replace the offensive artifact. With weeks before departure, Pen meets Rene, an elementary teacher in an illegal 1980s-themed speakeasy, igniting an unexpected connection that complicates everything. As he assembles his crew and prepares to leave Earth, Pen discovers that powerful forces in both America and China are conspiring to ensure his mission fails. Armed with little more than his fighter pilot instincts and unexpected allies-including the Second Republic of Texas and help from a relative who died before he was born-Pen must navigate political minefields, sabotage, and impossible odds. The future of Western Civilization hangs in the balance, and failure isn't in Duke Lencoln's vocabulary. Sometimes the most important battles aren't fought in the skies-they're fought in the stars.

Entanglement
Commander Scott McNabb, of the science vessel Hermes, is three years into a five-year-long survey of the asteroid belt. It's an excruciatingly dull mission, yet it keeps him far away from the agencies that are chasing him down. However, his fortunes change, along with the other four crew, when they discover a derelict spaceship in orbit around a binary asteroid. Scott's share of the salvage would be enough to clear his name and start a new life. But the ship contains an experimental quantum device, lost while en route to Europa, and ownership of this technology could fundamentally change the balance of power within the solar system. Now that word is out of its discovery, the Hermes finds itself being hunted down by the very people Scott has spent so much time and effort hiding from. If Scott wants any hope of a new life, then he's going to have to fight for it. Yet, after a lifetime of running and hiding, he's not sure if he has what it takes--maybe he really is just one of life's losers. Then again, there is a deep river of rage welling up inside him, born out of a lifetime of countless accumulated injustices, each one inching him ever closer to the edge--and this could be the one that finally makes him snap.

At his side are a cadre of the Emperor's scarlet-robed Royal Guard, led by Colonel Halland Goth--a decorated soldier with a very personal interest in Vader's mission.

But no matter how far he travels, he cannot escape the shadows within his own soul. Haunted by the echoes of his past, Vader circles the true resolution to his quest: only once all weakness is purged can he become a master of evil.
