A Matter of Trust
Robert Moriyama
The Morningstar has penetrated the defences of the Conlegium Magistris itself, seriously injuring the College's Master
of Combat Magic in the process. It seems that Al Majius and his allies must prepare for a final battle against their godlike foe
— until Janine Majius suggests an alternative.
Cat's Eye
Jeani Rector
She was a nobody, all but invisible to the world. But seeing the cat, with the impossible-to-ignore gaping hole where an eye had
been, suggested a solution to her problem.
Foray
Mary Brunini McArdle
The chance to do some serious research and make a little more money was irresistible. A bizarre murder mystery and an unexpected
romance just made things more interesting.
Girl Facing Village
Lee Alon
The world had changed radically with the spreading of Societal Order as the central pillar of the justice system. The Good People
had decided that they would no longer stand for boorishness and hooliganism — leading to virtual civil war with the advocates
of 'freedom'. Anna Fin had withdrawn from the whole mess after her own case had served as a flashpoint for the change. But it
looked like she couldn't escape the chaos — not for long, anyway.
Hollow
Frank Byrns
Eddie DiSilva had gone from small-time hood to steel-skinned superpowered enforcer. He'd gone mano a mano with some of
the big guns in his time. But his impenetrable hide was worse than useless now that he was in a fight to the death.

Last Movement
McCamy
Taylor
'The Butterfly Effect' is just a metaphor for the unpredictability of the effects of even the smallest of
actions. Wiping out a species of worms millions of years in the past couldn't affect the modern world — could it?
Oota's Tale
J.W. Bennett
The shaman Oota Dabun has seen the future, and it is a dark one. Now he must take young Yuma on a journey through time to prepare
him for what is to come.
Still Under Warranty
Arnold Emmanuel
Henry Willingsworth loved Beth, his girlfriend, with all his heart. Even when her hand fell off and he couldn't get it to lock
back into place, he couldn't imagine trading her in…
The Periambulant Oracle
Frederick Rustam
The Oracle was the most sophisticated Artificial Intelligence ever created — so much so that it
needed to directly experience the world it helped to govern instead of seeing it only as data from other systems. Journalist
Tom Topping thus found himself helping the Oracle go walkabout …
The Superior Species
Walt
Trizna
The discovery of perfectly preserved specimens of Homo neandertalis created opportunities for great scientific advances.
For example, one could clone a species that wasn't quite human. But the experiment would also reveal other things, things
that no one wanted to know.
