And all because man continued to confuse emotion with reason. But somehow, as before, man survived....

The Regent's Knight
by J. M. SnyderPrince Amery Llewellen is the only son of King Adin of Pharr and heir to the throne. When his father is lost in battle with the barbaric tribes invading the northern Pharrisian border, Amery becomes regent in his father’s stead. The royal advisers pressure him to take the crown and assume the throne, but doing so will force him to take a wife as well. Amery is loathe to do that, because he’s deeply in love with one of his knights, Sir Tovin Raimus, from the southland.Such a relationship is forbidden -- both because Tovin is another man and because he is a knight, much below the station of a prince. After King Adin forbid their union, Tovin and Amery masked their love with fights and arguments designed to make the servants believe they loathe each other. The whole castle dreads the news that the northern border has been breached, because when Tovin is assigned the position of castellan, that makes him head of castle security. His being stationed so near the regent has the servants believing the two will fight to the death.That’s just a farce to keep their love a secret. But Pharr needs a crowned ruler, and Amery must decide whether to take his rightful place on the throne or forsake his kingdom for the love of one man.

Regiment of Women
by Thomas BergerThe Pulitzer Prize–nominated author of Little Big Man returns with perhaps one of his most imaginative alternate realities yet: a matriarchal society. Women reign supreme in the not-so-distant future, where Georgie Cornell has no choice but to wear the high heel shoe on the other foot. Swept into the chaotic world of publishing, he is at the mercy of his female bosses, especially if his pencil skirt is an inch too short. Georgie only has one male coworker he can lean on for a bit of support, and his friend Charlie&’s fascination with gender roles borders on the scandalous for Georgie&’s taste. Still, when Georgie loses his job it&’s Charlie he turns to for comfort. Spilling a drink on his expensive dress, he has no choice but to wear the women&’s clothes Charlie keeps in secret on the way home. The simple journey quickly turns chaotic when Georgie is taken in by the police for the crime of being a transvestite. A prison escape is only the start of this piercing, insightful, and prescient look at gender norms. &“Imagined with such ferocity and glee that we assent to it almost in spite of ourselves . . . A brilliant accomplishment by one of our best novelists.&” —The New York Times Book Review

by Terry PratchettEn Regimiento Monstruoso, una novela independiente pero que se sitúa en la trigésimo primera posición en la serie del «Mundodisco», se narra una de las historias de guerra más pacifistas (y divertidas) que se han escrito.

Apenas quedan jóvenes que reclutar y, aprovechando la situación de emergencia nacional, Polly decide alistarse para buscar a su hermano Paul, desaparecido en combate.

Dominar el artede escupir, eructar, soltar tacos y andar con las piernas separadas y cierta chulería requerirá algo más de tiempo y un par de calcetines. Pronto, Polly y los otros reclutas se verán, sin apenas entrenamiento, adentrándose en territorio enemigo. Suerte que cuentan con el sargento más artero de todo el ejército, un vampiro adicto a la cafeína, el bueno, el Secreto y todas las artimañas del Regimiento Monstruoso.
