Book Description

On an earth inhabited by a cat-like race of women, one felina stands alone—from the award-winning author. “His tales have heart” (Strange Horizons). Few true humans remain on the future Earth, where caimen, shrugleggers, and felinas dominate. The peoples are descendents of crocodiles, alien races, and jaguars, and they are much different than the humans--they are products of genetic experiments, created to perform specific functions. Some work in the swampy lands, others are the strong burden-bearers, but none are as beautiful as the felines-- not even the humans. And no one is worthy enough to win over the most attractive felina, Karina. She is a rare beauty of great prowess, with a tempting sculpted physique that could lure anyone to her.

Book Description

"We must keep working. We have to tell the story of what happened during the Holocaust. Our synchro program will help people understand. No one must ever forget." A few weeks after 9/11, African-American coach Jems Wilson choreographs a "Holocaust" program for the Jazzicals Intermediate Synchronized Skating Team. The program is supposed to fight hatred and teach the world how to love. Instead, the program seems to ignite a wave of hate crimes against the Jazzicals and their coach. Racist symbols desecrate property, skates are vandalized, and violent threats are raised against Jems. In response, the team forms a White Rose Club, inspired by the World War II underground resistance organization called "The White Rose." Hundreds of skaters from all over the world join the club and pledge to "love one another." But the hate crimes continue and the Jazzicals begin to suspect each other. No one knows who to trust. Karina Kowalski and her substitute father, Officer Chuck Zander, step into the mire of suspicion and deceit to try to solve the mystery, and the Intermediates learn that they must be willing to pay a high price to bring love to a world filled with hate. The White Rose Affair is the third novel in the Jazzicals series about synchronized skating, the world's fastest-growing ice skating sport.

Book Description

The planet Arcadia was on the verge of economic collapse. Its human colony had been decimated by the strange Relay Effect; in the aftermath, still more colonists were leaving for other worlds. The Hetherington Organisation promised to change that. If the remaining colonists put themselves entirely in their hands for a five-year period, they would transform Arcadia into the most prosperous planet settled by mankind, while preserving its great natural beauty. It was an offer the Arcadians could not possibly refuse, for the alternative, after all, was an accelerating slide into poverty and, eventually, savagery. Only when the Hetherington Organisation's first cargo ships arrived, unloading a huge stream of brontomeks - huge robot agricultural machines, heavily armoured - and an army of amorphs, aliens who were capable of moulding themselves into human form, did the colony begin to realise what it had committed itself to. Brontomek! is a sequel to two earlier books, Syzygy and Mirror Image. Like it's predecessors it is an ingenious, adventurous tale of the type which has rapidly made Coney one of SF's foremost entertainers. Brontomek! won the 1977 BSFA award for best novel.

In this romantic whirlwind of a novel, follow Cat as she flies to Italy to rediscover who she is, and takes the chance of a lifetime. Thirty-four-year-old Manhattan accountant Cat Connelly has always lived life on the safe side. But after her little sister gets married, Cat wonders if she has condemned herself to a life of boredom by playing by the rules. To shake herself free from her old life, she decides to accept an invitation to spend a month with an old flame in Italy. But her reunion with the slick and gorgeous Francesco is short-lived, and she finds herself suddenly alone in Rome.

It will take an unexpected friendship with a fiery Italian waitress, a whirlwind Vespa tour of the Eternal City with a handsome stranger, and a surprise encounter with an old acquaintance to show Cat that life doesn't always work out the way you expect, but sometimes you have to have fall in order to fly.
