Foreigner: 30th Anniversary Edition
The groundbreaking novel that launched Cherryh's beloved space opera series of first contact and its consequences to become one of the longest running science fiction series in existence Now available in trade paperback for the first time, this 30th Anniversary Edition features a brand-new afterword by the author It had been nearly five centuries since the starship Phoenix, lost in space and desperately searching for the nearest G5 star, had encountered the planet of the atevi. On this alien world, law was kept by the use of registered assassination, alliances were defined by individual loyalties not geographical borders, and war became inevitable once humans and one faction of atevi established a working relationship. It was a war that humans had no chance of winning on this planet so many light-years from home. Now, nearly two hundred years after that conflict, humanity has traded its advanced technology for peace and an island refuge that no atevi will ever visit. Then the sole human the treaty allows into atevi society is marked for an assassin's bullet. The work of an isolated lunatic? The interests of a particular faction? Or the consequence of one human's fondness for a species which has fourteen words for betrayal and not a single word for love?

Empire's End
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - Following Star Wars: Aftermath and Star Wars: Life Debt, Chuck Wendig delivers the exhilarating conclusion to the New York Times bestselling trilogy set in the years between Return of the Jedi and The Force Awakens. EVERY END IS A NEW BEGINNING. As the final showdown between the New Republic and the Empire draws near, all eyes turn to a once-isolated planet: Jakku. The Battle of Endor shattered the Empire, scattering its remaining forces across the galaxy. But the months following the Rebellion's victory have not been easy. The fledgling New Republic has suffered a devastating attack from the Imperial remnant, forcing the new democracy to escalate its hunt for the hidden enemy. For her role in the deadly ambush, Grand Admiral Rae Sloane is the most wanted Imperial war criminal--and one-time rebel pilot Norra Wexley, back in service at Leia's urgent request, is leading the hunt. But more than just loyalty to the New Republic drives Norra forward: Her husband was turned into a murderous pawn in Sloane's assassination plot, and now she wants vengeance as much as justice. Sloane, too, is on a furious quest: pursuing the treacherous Gallius Rax to the barren planet Jakku. As the true mastermind behind the Empire's devastating attack, Rax has led the Empire to its defining moment. The cunning strategist has gathered the powerful remnants of the Empire's war machine, preparing to execute the late Emperor Palpatine's final plan. As the Imperial fleet orbits Jakku, an armada of Republic fighters closes in to finish what began at Endor. Norra and her crew soar into the heart of an apocalyptic clash that will leave land and sky alike scorched. And the future of the galaxy will finally be decided.

Twice-Spent Comet
The fall from hopeful revolutionary to prison laborer is a hard one. Fer's world has shrunk from the whole damn universe to this anonymous asteroid and the four other convicts who share it with them. It's a fitting end, for someone who used to wish on stars but now can only seem to collect endings.But magic and falling stars have ways of finding those who need them, and when Fer takes a chance and looks up, there's a mermaid staring back at them, silhouetted by stars.twice-spent comet is a fairy tale for forgotten places and the people whose stories are stuck waiting for the next sentence.This story is both fantastical and deeply human, offering a reminder that even in the darkest places, magic and hope can find a way to break through. . . . A must read."- Cassandra Bivens, Casla Reads
Broken
Disguising herself as a human is easy for shapeshifter Alira. Living as one turns out to be harder than she'd expected. And imitating a human well-known to millions on all the colony worlds may have been a mistake. To make matters worse, the harvests of knowledge and memories she's gathered from the dead aren't adequate to fully understand her assumed role-unless she surrenders control to the one internal voice she thinks can make things right. But that harvest isn't willing to share the space in her head, and soon Alira is no longer sure which voice is his, and which is her own.Galen has vowed to help Alira succeed and follows her increasingly unbalanced directives, until he realizes that her harvests have corrupted her conscience, maybe even her sanity. Galen has never been a leader. But as the crisis screams toward them, he must make a choice: abandon their people to save Alira or sacrifice her to save them all.

Aftermath (Star Wars)
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - Journey to Star Wars: The Force Awakens "Star Wars: Aftermath [reveals] what happened after the events of 1983's Return of the Jedi. It turns out, there's more than just the Empire for the good guys to worry about."--The Hollywood Reporter As the Empire reels from its critical defeats at the Battle of Endor, the Rebel Alliance--now a fledgling New Republic--presses its advantage by hunting down the enemy's scattered forces before they can regroup and retaliate. But above the remote planet Akiva, an ominous show of the enemy's strength is unfolding. Out on a lone reconnaissance mission, pilot Wedge Antilles watches Imperial Star Destroyers gather like birds of prey circling for a kill, but he's taken captive before he can report back to the New Republic leaders. Meanwhile, on the planet's surface, former rebel fighter Norra Wexley has returned to her native world--war weary, ready to reunite with her estranged son, and eager to build a new life in some distant place. But when Norra intercepts Wedge Antilles's urgent distress call, she realizes her time as a freedom fighter is not yet over. What she doesn't know is just how close the enemy is--or how decisive and dangerous her new mission will be. Determined to preserve the Empire's power, the surviving Imperial elite are converging on Akiva for a top-secret emergency summit--to consolidate their forces and rally for a counterstrike. But they haven't reckoned on Norra and her newfound allies--her technical-genius son, a Zabrak bounty hunter, and a reprobate Imperial defector--who are prepared to do whatever they must to end the Empire's oppressive reign once and for all. Praise for Aftermath "The Force is strong with Star Wars: Aftermath."--Alternative Nation "The Star Wars universe is fresh and new again, and just as rich and mysterious as it always was."--Den of Geek "[Chuck] Wendig neatly captures the current states of the Empire and Rebel Alliance and does so through flawed, real, and nuanced characters. His writing gets you up close and personal. . . . Wendig does wonders with dialogue and voice and carving out space for everyone to breathe. Aftermath is a strong foot forward into unexplored territory and puts down just enough foundation that you can start picturing the Resistance and First Order of The Force Awakens taking shape."--Nerdist "If the opening chapter of the Wendig's Aftermath trilogy is any indication, the 'Journey to Star Wars: The Force Awakens' will be every bit as exciting as the movie."--New York Daily News "A wonderful Star Wars adventure by a gifted author."--SF Book Reviews

Interdimensional energy beings see matter-based life forms as an energy-consuming plague-and to support their case, sentients do have a habit of destroying every world we touch. Either matter-beings will be forced to give back the energy we've co-opted, or we need someone else to fill that deficit.Njandejara is the Progenitor energy being, and the only life-form with enough juice to stop the drain. Unlike the other interdimensionals, he's deeply in love with matter, and would gladly give all of himself to save these little worlds.But Njandejara can't die. It's physically impossible. If he could, the Universe that depends on him would spiral into nothingness. Not nonexistence, but a harsh, hellish, meaninglessness. There's a little bioship hopping from planet to planet trying to stop the heat death, though. And on board they have Njandejara's greatest vulnerability. With death at the end of the road, either they're about to save the Universe ... or they'll be the ones to damn it forever.

But the mission of the Ark is more than simply saving the human species.

But the cost to the church will be its very existence. In order to unify, all agree that the Ark must not carry the symbols, books or even the knowledge of any of the old religions. To survive, humanity must lose God and have faith that God will find them in the stars.
