Battletech; Book I of The Warrior trilogy. Stripped of his rank, exiled Justin Allard is given one last chance to save his honour - by risking his life in the gladiatorial arenas of Solaris VII. But his newest Game World opponent - more skilled at Mech-to-Mech combat than any other rival - raises the stakes even higher. It's Justin's own half brother Daniel, lance commander in the dread Kell Hounds mercenary battalion. But Daniel has more serious worries than dealing with his embittered half brother. Princess Melissa Steiner, heir apparent of the Lyran Commonwealth, has been hijacked and the future of the Inner Sphere depends on her fate. Both Daniel and Justin face fierce battles, but in the Inner Sphere, where nobles have schemed for centuries to win the ultimate power, those who interfere with the Successor Lords are sometimes called heroes - and sometimes called victims.

Way Station: Clifford D. Simak
$115.00Enoch Wallace fought in the Civil War and returned to the simple house where he was born in rural Wisconsin. He still resides there today, and he hasn't aged a day since the war ended in 1865 - nor has his home, impregnable to any known weapon. For years he has secretly manned a way station for a galactic federation's transit network, acting as Earth's unassuming diplomat to the stars. The world around him has gone about its business, slowly building towards another World War and a modern America on the brink of war keeps tabs on odd folks within its borders. When a Washington agency takes an interest in Enoch, it threatens to destroy everything he has built: the trust of the aliens, his studies of advanced sciences, his hopes that one day Earth will join the federation - and the very existence of the way station. Meanwhile, the galactic federation is in turmoil. Now, both his home and the galaxy need a miracle to survive - a miracle that falls to Enoch Wallace to provide. Cover art: Almost Home, Randy J.
