Naked to the Stars and the Alien Way (TOR SF Double #31)
by Gordon R. DicksonNaked to the Stars: Cal Truant was a tough professional soldier, a Section Leader in the Human Expedition against the Lehuanen. A battlefield promotion had put him in charge of the whole 4th Assault Wing: now he was beginning to wonder whether he was ready for command. Especially against the raccoon-like Lehaunen, who didn't seem to understand such basic military concepts as "truce" or "enemy." So when Cal took a walk into Lehaunen territory, it was anybody's guess whether he'd come back at all--let alone with any memory of what happenned to him... The Alien Way: The Ruml's intentions were clear; they meant to conquer Earth as they had conquered so many other worlds. And so far, none had been able to stand before their onslaught. But Earth had an advantage that set it apart from all the other victims: Jason Barcher. Jason's mind knew, as no one else on Earth could know, how powerful and cruel the Ruml could be. But could he know Kator's plans--or find a way to stop the menace--without losing his identity as a human?

Named of the Dragon
by Susanna Kearsley"I've loved every one of Susanna's books! She has bedrock research and a butterfly's delicate touch with characters—sure recipe for historical fiction that sucks you in and won't let go!"—DIANA GABALDON, #1 New York Times bestselling author of OutlanderFrom bestselling author Susanna Kearsley comes a story in which romance and the paranormal combine in a suspenseful Welsh setting to inspire one woman to confront the past and face her own ghosts.The charm of spending the Christmas holidays in South Wales, with its rich history, crumbling castles and ancient myths, seems the perfect distraction from the nightmares that have plagued literary agent Lyn Ravenshaw since the loss of her baby five years ago.Instead, she meets an emotionally fragile young widow who's convinced that Lyn's recurring dreams have drawn her to Castle Farm for an important purpose—and she's running out of time.With the help of a reclusive, brooding playwright, Lyn begins to untangle the mystery and is pulled into a world of Celtic legends, dangerous prophecies, and a child destined for greatness.Generations of Welsh history haunt Named of the Dragon, but the light that shines through the shadows is sure to draw fans of Diana Gabaldon, Kate Morton and Kate Mosse.Also by Susanna Kearsley:The Winter SeaThe FirebirdA Desperate FortuneThe Rose GardenThe Shadowy HorsesThe Splendour FallsSeason of StormsMarianaBellewether
