Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New Ceres, a planet in the outer colonies, embraced the Age of Enlightenment nearly two hundred years ago and refused to let go. Refugees and opportunists come to New Ceres in search of new lives, escaping the conflicts of the interstellar war that has already destroyed Earth. New Ceres Nights presents thirteen exciting stories of rebellion, debauchery, decadence, subterfuge and murder set against the backdrop of powdered wigs, coffee houses, duels and balls that is the shared world of New Ceres. . .Table of ContentsDebutante — Dirk FlinthartThe Widow’s Seven Candles — Thoraiya DyerCode Duello — J C HayMurder in Laochan — Aliette de BodardTontine Mary — Kaaron WarrenFair Trade — Stephen DedmanA Troublesome Day for Jacky Midnight — Matthew FarrerProsperine When It Sizzles — Tansy Rayner RobertsCandle to the Devil — Sue IsleBlessed Are the Dead that the Rain Falls Upon — Martin LivingsThe Sharp Shooter — Sylvia KelsoSmuggler’s Moon — Lee BattersbyThe Piece of Ice in Miss Windermere’s Heart — Angela Slatter Reviews The Australian-based shared world project New Ceres has produced an enjoyable anthology, New Ceres Nights, set on a planet with artificially restricted tech. The stories hint at (and sometimes show directly) some dark aspects of this future, though many are fairly light in tone. I particularly liked Tansy Rayner Roberts’s “Prosperine When It Sizzles”, featuring the very popular character La Duchesse and her assistant M. Pepin – about whom we learn some secrets as he meets an old offworld acquaintance while the two of them try to rescue a prominent politician’s children from some unfortunate choices in entertainment; and Sylvia Kelso’s “The Sharp Shooter”, in which the title character comes to a remote farm to help eliminate a dangerous beast. Rich Horton, Locus June 2009 While [the stories] share the same setting, each explores different aspects, and the result is a surprising variety…these were all strong offerings, and set in an inspired order, to gently introduce readers to the world’s quirks before they become important subtleties in later tales. SF Book Reviews, July 2009 … marvel that a story set a thousand years in the future, at a remove of many light years from Earth, and seeking to recapture an era two or three centuries before our own, can hold up such a mirror to our own mode of existence. Simon Petrie, Specusphere, September 2009

Book excerpt: In the second novel in the Hybrid Chronicles—perfect for fans of Ally Condie, Lauren Oliver, and Scott Westerfeld—Eva and Addie struggle to share their body as they clash over romance and the fight for hybrid freedom. Addie and Eva escaped imprisonment at a horrific psychiatric hospital. Now they should be safe, living among an underground hybrid movement. But safety is starting to feel constricting. Faced with the possibility of being in hiding forever, the girls are eager to help bring about change—now. The answer seems to lie in a splinter group willing to go to extremes for hybrid freedom, but as Addie and Eva fall ever deeper into their plans, what they thought was the solution to their problems might just be the thing that destroys everything—including their bond to each other.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I guess I always felt even if the world came to an end, McDonald's still would be open. High school sophomore Miranda's disbelief turns to fear in a split second when an asteroid knocks the moon closer to Earth, like "one marble hits another." The result is catastrophic. How can her family prepare for the future when worldwide tsunamis are wiping out the coasts, earthquakes are rocking the continents, and volcanic ash is blocking out the sun? As August turns dark and wintery in northeastern Pennsylvania, Miranda, her two brothers, and their mother retreat to the unexpected safe haven of their sunroom, where they subsist on stockpiled food and limited water in the warmth of a wood-burning stove. Told in a year's worth of journal entries, this heart-pounding story chronicles Miranda's struggle to hold on to the most important resource of all--hope--in an increasingly desperate and unfamiliar world. An extraordinary series debut Susan Beth Pfeffer has written several companion novels to Life As We Knew It, including The Dead and the Gone, This World We Live In, and The Shade of the Moon.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If he had been with me everything would have been different... I wasn't with Finn on that August night. But I should've been. It was raining, of course. And he and Sylvie were arguing as he drove down the slick road. No one ever says what they were arguing about. Other people think it's not important. They do not know there is another story. The story that lurks between the facts. What they do not know—the cause of the argument—is crucial. So let me tell you...
