Book Description
War across the systems. A lifelong quest to find intelligent life. And—on a harsh, desolate planet—a sentient species, struggling to build a civilization. Stealing the Sun, a space-based Science Fiction series from frequent Analog contributor and bestselling Amazon Science Fiction author Ron Collins --- STARCLASH Two star systems, one galaxy Universe Three has destroyed Everguard. The United Government has to strike back. Humanity sits on the edge of an intergalactic war never before imaginable. Torrance Black: Everguard’s hero signs up to help. Casmir Francis: Universe Three’s director wants a peaceful path to freedom for his people while Deidra—his daughter and heir to his leadership—wants to fight it out now. Is she right? Is she wrong? Can the galaxy survive either answer? --- STARBOUND One war across the stars, two paths to the future Torrance Black never planned to become a war hero, but this latest twist—turning politician—came as the ultimate shock. Universe Three renegades fight for freedom under their new leader. Or is it revenge? United Government leaders want control. But Torrance, science ambassador, joins the most advanced minds in the Solar System to complete one task: set the future course for scientific exploration of the known universe. He believes intelligent life lives in the Alpha Centauri system. He thinks humanity is destroying it. Draining its star. Problem is: No one else agrees. --- STARCRASH First You Have To Survive Torrance Black: wounded, alone, and adrift in deep space. His tiny shuttle holds short rations and scant fuel. Ahead lies his only chance—a planet too desolate to support life. At least that’s what the “experts” told him. But someone must have sent the signals that changed his life back when he was on Everguard. Torrance believes. He’s always believed. If he makes it to the planet he can finally learn if he was right. But first, he has to survive. --- “STARCLASH proves once again that Ron Collins is a master of the science fiction adventure story—not the crazy stuff you remember from the pulps, but the kind of interstellar adventure that has believable characters, plotting that makes sense, and a future that rings true." Mike Resnick, Hugo Award–winning author of Kirinyaga

Book Description
A long time ago, Raven was pure white, like fresh snow in winter. This was so long ago that the only light came from campfires, because a greedy chief kept the stars, moon, and sun locked up in elaborately carved boxes. Determined to free them, the shape-shifting Raven resourcefully transformed himself into the chief's baby grandson and cleverly tricked him into opening the boxes and releasing the starlight and moonlight. Though tired of being stuck in human form, Raven maintained his disguise until he got the chief to open the box with the sun and flood the world with daylight, at which point he gleefully transformed himself back into a raven. When the furious chief locked him in the house, Raven was forced to escape through the small smokehole at the top — and that's why ravens are now black as smoke instead of white as snow. This engaging Tlingit story is brought to life in painterly illustrations that convey a sense of the traditional life of the Northwest Coast peoples. About the Tales of the People series: Created with the Smithsonian's National Museum of the American Indian (NMAI), Tales of the People is a series of children's books celebrating Native American culture with illustrations and stories by Indian artists and writers. In addition to the tales themselves, each book also offers four pages filled with information and photographs exploring various aspects of Native culture, including a glossary of words in different Indian languages.

ALICE FEENEYS NEW YORK TIMES AND INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER “Boldly plotted, tightly knotted—a provocative true-or-false thriller that deepens and darkens to its ink-black finale. Marvelous.” —AJ Finn, author of The Woman in the Window My name is Amber Reynolds. There are three things you should know about me: 1. I’m in a coma. 2. My husband doesn’t love me anymore. 3. Sometimes I lie. Amber wakes up in a hospital. She can’t move. She can’t speak. She can’t open her eyes. She can hear everyone around her, but they have no idea. Amber doesn’t remember what happened, but she has a suspicion her husband had something to do with it. Alternating between her paralyzed present, the week before her accident, and a series of childhood diaries from twenty years ago, this brilliant psychological thriller asks: Is something really a lie if you believe it's the truth?

Mystery-book aficionado Birdie Lindberg has an overactive imagination. Raised in isolation and homeschooled by strict grandparents, she’s cultivated a whimsical fantasy life in which she plays the heroic detective and every stranger is a suspect. But her solitary world expands when she takes a job the summer before college, working the graveyard shift at a historic Seattle hotel. In her new job, Birdie hopes to blossom from introverted dreamer to brave pioneer, and gregarious Daniel Aoki volunteers to be her guide. The hotel’s charismatic young van driver shares the same nocturnal shift and patronizes the waterfront Moonlight Diner where Birdie waits for the early morning ferry after work.

To uncover the writer’s puzzling identity, Birdie must come out of her shell…discovering that the most confounding mystery of all may be her growing feelings for the elusive riddle that is Daniel.
