Agent of change -- Carpe diem."Agent of Change: Once a brilliant First-in-Scout, Val Con yos'Phelium was "recruited" by the shadowy Liaden Department of Interior and brainwashed into an Agent of Change--a ruthless covert operative who kills without remorse. Val Con has been playing a deep game, far from the orderly life of clan and kin. Fleeing his latest mission, he saves the life of ex-mercenary Miri Robertson, a Terran on the run from interplanetary assassins. Thrown together by circumstances, Val Con and Miri struggle to elude their enemies and stay alive without killing each other-or surrendering to the unexpected passion that flares between them. Which name -- or face -- will the agent choose when the game gets tough and an escape for only one of them seems possible?"--Amazon.com, viewed May 17, 2011."Carpe Diem: On the run from interplanetary assassins and a ruthless interstellar crime cartel, covert operative Val Con yos'Phelium and former mercenary sergeant Miri Robertson formed an alliance of necessity and wound up stranded on a planet with no rescue in sight. Their on-world problems were looking manageable after they assumed new identities as musicians, that is until a local war forced them to reveal their alien combat skills -- and doubt their own growing partnership of trust and love. By then the relentless hound of an agent on Val Con's trail was closing in with the very weapon Val Con and Miri most feared, and the game got very rough indeed"--Amazon.com, viewed May 17, 2011.

Neogenesis : a new Liaden Universe novel / by Lee, Sharon,1952-author.(CARDINAL)703618; Miller, Steve,1950 July 31-author.(CARDINAL)675559;
"NEW ENTRY IN THE NATIONALLY BEST-SELLING LIADEN UNIVERSE SERIES. Sequel to national bestseller The Gathering Edge. Menace from Back Space Looming out of the Dust of Time The Complex Logic Laws were the result of a war waged hundreds of years in the past, when two human powers threw massive AI navies at each other and nearly annihilated themselves. Being human, they blamed their tools for this near miss; they destroyed what was left of the sentient ships, and made it illegal to be, manufacture, or shelter an independent logic. Strangely, however, the Free Ships and other AIs did not turn themselves in or suicide, they merely became wary of humans, and stayed under their scans. A clandestine support network grew up, including hidden yards where smart ships were manufactured, and mentors--humans specially trained to ease a new intelligence into the universe--socialized them, and taught them what they needed to know to survive. Among those with a stake in the freedom of Independent Logics is Theo Waitley, who is somewhat too famously the captain of intelligent ship Bechimo. Theo's brother, Val Con yos'Phelium, presides over a household that has for a generation employed an AI butler. Recently, he approved the "birth" of the butler's child, who was sent, with human mentor Tolly Jones, to rescue or destroy an orphaned AI abandoned at a remote space station. Then there's Uncle, the shadowy mastermind from the Old Universe, whose many projects often skirt the boundaries of law, both natural and man-made - and the puppet-masters at the Lyre Institute, whose history is just as murky - and a good deal less honorable. All have an interest in the newly-awakening Self-Aware Logic that is rumored to have the power to destroy universes. The question is: Whowill get to it first? About Dragon in Exile: "[S]prawling and satisfying. Space opera mixes with social engineering, influenced by Regency-era manners and delicate notions of honor. [I]t's like spending time with old friends."--Publishers WeeklyAbout Necessity's Child: "Compelling and wondrous, as sharp and graceful as Damascus steel, Necessity's Child is a terrific addition to Lee & Miller's addictive series."--#1 New York Times best seller, Patricia Briggs About the Liaden Universe

"A series milestone as we welcome the twentieth amazing entry in the nationally best-selling Liaden Universe."The luck runs rough around Theo Waitley. Not only are people trying to kill her and capture the self-aware intelligent ship Bechimo to whom Theo is bonded, they're also trying to arrest her crew members. No wonder Theo and her crew needed a break and retired to what Bechimo refers to as 'safe space.' Unfortunately, safe space may not be so safe anymore. It seems things are leaking through from another universe and another time. In face, whole spaceships are coming through. One of those ships is a blasted battleship seemingly fleeing a long-lost war. What's more, its crew may be members of Theo's ancient ancestral line--her relatives. Now Theo has a choice to make and it seems Bechimo's 'safe space' is about to become deadly perilous"--

"A new novel in the popular and exciting science fiction Liaden Universe"Beset by the angry remnants of the Department of the Interior, challenged at every turn by opportunists on their new homeworld of Surebleak, and somewhat low on funds, Clan Korval desperately needs to reestablish its position as one of the top trading clans in known space. To this end, Master Trader Shan yos'Galan, aboard Korval's premier trade ship, Dutiful Passage, is on a mission to establish new business associations. But reestablishing trade and preserving the lives of the few remaining members of the clan aren't all of Korval's problems. Accustomed to being welcomed, Dutiful Passage finds itself denied docking while agents of the DOI mount armed attacks under the very eyes of port security systems. Traveling with Dutiful Passage is Padi yos'Galan,Shan' heir and apprentice. Padi is eager to make up for lost time due to Korval's unpleasantness with the DOI but she is also keeping a secret so intense that her very life is threatened by it"--

"NEW ENTRY IN THE LANDMARK LIADEN UNIVERSE® SERIES Jethri Gobelyn has risen far: from despised youngest on a Terran family Loop ship to second trader on premier Liaden tradeship Elthoria under the guidance of his unlikely foster-mother Norn ven'Deelin Clan Ixin. Master Trader ven'Deelin has taught Jethri much, and she expects great things from him. Indeed, one might say she demands them. Jethri has inherited a mission from his father, a plan that will allow family Loop ships like the one he grew up on to survive the encroachment of Rostov's Dust. In this, he's backed by several prominent Looper families who are scheduled to meet and plan at the South Axis Trade Fair. In what seems to be a fortunate pairing of missions, Master Trader ven'Deelin sees Jethri become lead trader on his own small ship, which is scheduled to arrive at the South Axis Fair. Unfortunately, that "fortunate coincidence" may instead be a test of Jethri's loyalties, as he's thrust into a tangle of gray-trading, mistaken identity, misinformation, and galactic politics. . .
