TIME IS RUNNING OUT

Agent Raibert Kaminski and the crew of the Transtemporal Vehicle Kleio have stumbled across a temporal implosion that has claimed two whole universes, and neither Raibert nor his crew can figure out what caused this calamity, or how to stop its spread. Navigating the paradoxes of time can be a killer task—especially when dogged by those who seek your destruction at every turn. The crew of the Kleio won't go down without a fight, no matter where—or when—the threat to their home comes from.

TALES OF THE WAR THAT MIGHT HAVE BEEN

What if the United States had gone to war with the Soviet Union? What if these rival superpowers had fought on land, sea, air, and the astral plane? What if the Soviets and Americans had struggled for dominion across parallel dimensions or on the surface of the moon? How would the world have changed? What wonders would have been unveiled? What terrors would have haunted mankind from those dark and dismal dimensions? Come closer, peer through a glass darkly, and discover the horrifying alternative visions of World War III from some of today’s greatest minds in science fiction, fantasy, and horror.

In David Weber and Jacob Holo's The Valkyrie Protocol, Raibert Kaminski must put a stop to wrongdoers in multiple realities, across the multiverse. And the new anthology Weird World War III, edited by Sean Patrick Hazlett, asks what strange horrors might have been unleashed had the Cold War turned hot.

October Books

The Valkyrie Protocol
David Weber & Jacob Holo
(hardcover)

The crew of the Transtemporal Vehicle Kleio must travel to the past to prevent the collapse of the universe. To do so, they’ll need help from throughout time and the multiverse. Time is running out for Raibert and his team. But the crew of the Kleio won't go down without a fight, no matter where—or when—the threat to their home comes from.


Weird World War III
edited by Sean Patrick Hazlett
(trade paperback)

What if the United States had gone to war with the Soviet Union? How would the world have changed? Come closer, peer through a glass darkly, and discover the horrifying alternative visions of World War III from some of today’s greatest minds in science fiction, fantasy, and horror.


Sassinak
Anne McCaffrey & Elizabeth Moon
(trade paperback)

Sassinak was twelve when the raiders came. That made her just the right age: old enough to be used, young enough to be broken. Or so the slavers thought. But Sassy turned out to be different from the typical slave girl. Maybe it was her unusual physical strength. Maybe it was her friendship with the captured Fleet crewman. Maybe it was her spirit. Whatever it was, it wouldn't let her resign herself to the life of a slave.


1636: The China Venture
Eric Flint & Iver P. Cooper
(mass market paperback)

The newly formed United States of Europe sends an embassy to the Chinese empire for all important critical resources nobody has ever needed before—at least not before an entire town showed up from 300 years in the future! But convincing the mandarins to establish trade with the newly formed USE won't be easy.


Target Rich Environment, Vol. 2
Larry Correia
(mass market paperback)

More stories from the creator of Monster Hunter International, The Grimnoir Chronicles, and the Saga of the Forgotten Warrior. The second volume collecting all of best-selling author Larry Correia's short stories, novelettes, and novellas. Correia delivers short stories that pull no punches and take no prisoner.


The Cunning Man
D.J. Butler & Aaron Michael Ritchey
(mass market paperback)

It’s the depths of the Depression, and a mining town in Utah is shut down. Something has awakened underground, and now a monster roams the tunnels. Along comes Hiram Woolley, a man with mystical abilities derived from the commonsense application of Scot-Irish folk wisdom and German Braucher magic.

Don’t forget to check out the newest Ebook releases here. Plus, read this month’s free short story “At the Seams” by Jacob Holo here. And check out the second installment in Tom Kratman's "Notes on the Carreraverse" here.
