The Lone Sentinel
by Jo DereskeTHE LONE SENTINEL Erik knew he was doing wrong. His father had been killed and he'd failed to report it. Instead, he'd gone on alone caring for the beam that was the Lone Sentinel. The beam protected biosote, a strange growth needed by an alien race, the Helgatites. People of the Earth colony on the planet Azure guarded the biosote in return for material and protection provided by the Helgatites. Erik had lived all his life at the Lone Sentinel. But he knew that Trust Control, the overseers of all the sentinels, would not let him stay there alone. He would have to move to the only city on Azure, New Province. What that would be like he knew too well from videos: too many people, too many buildings, too much to fear. Erik carefully followed all the rules by which the keepers of the sentinels lived. But nothing in his instructions prepared him for the arrival of Willa and Augusta, two runaways from New Province, or for the failure of his radio contact with Trust Control and the unexpected arrival of the Helgatites, who'd come, they said, to give the biosote a special treatment. What was he to do about Augusta and her mysterious sister, Willa? And what was it, really, that the Helgatites were doing? Sometimes it takes more than one head to solve big problems. It took all three of them, Erik, Augusta, and Willa, to discover what was really going on at the Lone Sentinel. And the only possible way to solve it involved more danger than Erik had ever thought he might face, even in New Province.

Lone Star Planet
by H. Beam PiperIn 1999, this novel won the Prometheus Award, Hall of Fame Award for Best Classic Libertarian SF Novel. This tale features a planet of Texans whose dinosaur-sized cattle have to be herded with tanks, and whose system of government derives its character from H.L. Mencken's classic essay "The Malevolent Jobholder". The protagonist is an insubordinate junior diplomat who is appointed as ambassador to this cantankerously independent planet in the hope that he will be assassinated (as the previous ambassador had been), thereby justifying the forcible invasion and conquest of the Texans. The crux of the story is the trial of the previous ambassador's assassins--actually paid killers hired by an alien empire also planning invasion--under a legal system that considers the killing of a practicing politician to be justifiable homicide.
