Book

Regenesis

At twelve weeks, having doubled in size in the last seven days, Giraud massed 28 grams, somewhat less than a generous shot of the whiskey he’d one day love.     He had gotten fists, and fingerprints, and his general body shape was a little more human. He’d been drinking in the...

Fortress in the Eye of Time (2006)

Besides the tent, he saw the wagon to carry it, and some number of horses grazing within the ruined wall which surrounded the small camp, a ground with pavings here or there breaking surface amid the trampled grasses: it was some former room, or hall, and of men there were thirty or so, hardly mo...

Serpent's Reach

Chaos multiplied, even on Cerdin.     Moth regarded the stacks of printouts with a shiver, and then smiled, a faint and febrile smile.     She looked up at Tand.     “Have you made any progress toward the Istran statistics?”   ...

Destroyer

He came awake with the passage of a shadow between him and the light, and saw Banichi standing between him and the windows. Jago was with him.

Chanur's Venture

Tapes and galley dishes lay heaped in clutter on the desk. "You can't leave things lying." It was the old, old shipboard safety lecture, delivered with tiresome patience. "Good gods, Khym, don't . . . don't do these things." "I'm sorry," he said, and meant it as he did all the other times. She lo...

Well of Shiuan

Gates are outside time. Nothing is fixed. And in this land—once—an unused Gate was flung wide open, uncontrolled, and poured men through into a land that was not theirs. That was not theirs, Vanye. And they took that land... men that speak a common tongue with Andur-Kursh; that remember me."   He...

Pride of Chanur

It was pale, naked, starved-looking in what fleeting glimpse anyone on The Pride of Chanur had had of it. Evidently no one had reported it to station authorities, nor did The Pride. Involving oneself in others' concerns at Meetpoint Station, where several species came to trade and provision, was ...

Finity's End - a Union-Alliance Novel

That made for, in JR's estimation, a far better feeling than it would have been if they'd had to chase Champlain into jump alone.It also made their situation better, courtesy of the station administration, for Finity to have had access to Champlain's entry data, data on that ship's behavior and h...

Tracker (2015)

Standing in the foyer, with staff and baggage all about them, Cajeiri could hear the tires rumbling down the gravel road, and all too soon he could hear the bus turning onto the cobbles of the portico.     There was no way to stop it and no way to gain another hour at Najida. ...

Foreigner: (10th Anniversary Edition)

He spotted Ilisidi high up among towering boulders, Babs moving like one of Malguri’s flitting ghosts past gaps in the rocks. He didn’t see the crest of the hill—he only lost track of Ilisidi and Cenedi at the same moment, and, following them, at the head of their column of twenty-odd riders, cam...

Deceiver: Foreigner #11

It was blissful contentment—not without, however, the awareness that very many people were spending the night in somewhat less comfort, on guard around the estate, even on its roof. A little wind had started up, audibly whistling around the eaves, and there had been clouds in the west, good indic...

Hellburner

Graff took a slow sip of vending machine coffee, keyed the next page on the desktop reader. The report writer liked passives:   ‘will be effectuated,’   ‘will  be seen to have incremented,’ and especially convolutions: ‘may have been cost-effective in the interim while result-negative in the long...

Fires of Azeroth

A man went, walking out to the horse that had stopped its flight a little distance from the picket line. Vanye started back to Roh. Fwar took him by the arm.

Chanur's Legacy

Hallan put his ear to the wall, then backed off as someone began hammering and banging. It sounded as if someone were tearing into the paneling, and maybe taking the whole cabin apart.That was a peculiar kind of thing to do, on a ship that was supposed to be in count to undock. He began to wonder...

Voyager in Night (2014)

Rafe heard only the whisper of his clothing, his own deepened breaths. Kepta made no sound at all, except to talk to him from time to time down the winding hall: "Tired?" Kepta asked.       "Does that matter? You pushed me along this way once, with the lights. What were y...

The Faded Sun Trilogy

Hulagh settled uneasily into his cushions in the rear of the landsled and saw it grow nearer: built of the soil of the mineral flats, cemented and dull-surfaced, it was of a color with the earth, but startling to the eye and forbiddingly sterile in its outlines. It wasted space with its slanting ...

Gate of Ivrel

Then: "Take them both," came across the distance. The riders closed together. For a moment as they were closely surrounded, Vanye had the overwhelming fear that Morgaine might suddenly panic and bring death on both of them, the more so as Paren demanded the surrender of their weapons.   And then ...

Fortunate for the world that mountains rise beyond the Qarain and trap the water that rises in the wind. That gift, passing through the hard rock of the Qarain, feeds the wells of the Lakht. In the same way the Lakht sends water down to the lowlands, turning bitter water into sweet. The unkindest...

The Complete Morgaine (2015)

There is a strange conceit in making them when we are the last—but a race should leave something. The world is going . . . and the end of the world comes, not for us, perhaps, but soon. And we have always loved monuments.     “Know that it was Morgaine kri Chya who wrought thi...

Chanur's Homecoming

"Gods look on us." And with the appearance of a shudder, she looked at Tully and his dark-robed partner. Perhaps in that instant of afterthought she wanted to take that pious wish back. But that would have been an embarrassment. "Hearth and home," she added, and with monumental charity: "and what...
