The Peep planet of Prague and its brutally repressive StateSec regime will never be the same again after the unscheduled, unofficial, and thoroughly catastrophic visit by a pair of Manticoran Marines with a most peculiar taste in their holiday destinations. John Ringo offers his unique blend of nonstop action and deliciously skewed humor in two offerings. Timothy Zahn weighs in with a story of the heavy cruiser HMS Fearless a brilliant young tactical officer on temporarily detached duty Solarian con men secret weapons that aren't quite what they seem to be naval spies, spooks, and dirty tricks courage and honor and a surprising glimpse into one of Admiral Sonja Hemphill's most crucial technological innovations. In this collection, Jane Lindskold gives us the story of a prince on the brink of maturity and an extraordinary young Grayson woman named Judith-a victim of Masadan brutality, who confronts insurmountable odds in a desperate effort to lead her sisters to freedom- or-death among the stars. Her life touches others-and their lives touch hers-directly, or indirectly, whether as a naval officer, steadholder, or duchess.
