Larry Niven & Edward M. LernerBetrayer of Worlds Doherty, Tom Associates, LLC 2011 0765364980 / 9780765364982 First Edition Edition Mass Market Paperback New Ships in 10-14 Day After Release date Fleeing the supernova chain reaction at the galactic core, the cowardly Puppeteers of the Fleet of Worlds have?-just barely?-survived. They've stumbled from one crisis to the next: The rebellion of their human slaves. The relentless questing of the species of Known Space. The spectacular rise of the starfish-like Gw'oth. The onslaught of the genocidal Pak. Catastrophe looms again as past crises return?-and converge. Who can possibly save the Fleet of Worlds from its greatest peril yet? Louis Wu? Trapped in the Wunderland civil war, all he wants is to go home?-but the only possible escape will plunge him into unknowable danger. Ol't'ro? The Gw'oth ensemble mind fled across the stars to establish a colony world free from tyranny. But some problems cannot be left behind, and other problems?-like the Fleet of Worlds itself?-are racing straight at them. Achilles? Despite past disgrace, the charismatic Puppeteer politician knows he is destined for greatness. He will do anything to seize power?-and to take his revenge on everyone who ever stood in his way. Nessus? The insane Puppeteer scout is out of ideas, out of resources, with only desperation left to guide him. Their hopes and fears, dreams and ambitions are about to collide. And the winner takes . . . worlds. 9780765364982 0.00 Price:

Larry Niven & Brenda CooperBuilding Harlequin's Moon Doherty, Tom Associates, LLC 2006 0765351293 / 9780765351296 1st edition Mass Market Paperback New Ships in 10-14 Days The first interstellar starship, John Glenn, fled a Solar System populated by rogue AIs and machine/human hybrids, threatened by too much nanotechnology, and rife with political dangers. The John Glenn's crew intended to terraform the nearly pristine planet Ymir, in hopes of creating a utopian society that would limit intelligent technology. But by some miscalculation they have landed in another solar system and must shape the gas giant planet Harlequin's moon, Selene, into a new, temporary home. Their only hope of ever reaching Ymir is to rebuild their store of antimatter by terraforming the moon. Gabriel, the head terraformer, must lead this nearly impossible task, with all the wrong materials: the wrong ships and tools, and too few resources. His primary tools are the uneducated and nearly-illiterate children of the original colonists, born and bred to build Harlequin's moon into an antimatter factory. Rachel Vanowen is one of these children. Basically a slave girl, she must do whatever the terraforming Council tells her. She knows that Council monitors her actions from a circling vessel above Selene's atmosphere, and is responsible for everything Rachel and her people know, as well as all the skills, food, and knowledge they have ever received. With no concept of the future and a life defined with duty, how will the children of Selene ever survive once the Council is through terraforming and have abandoned Selene for its ultimate goal of Ymir? 9780765351296 0.00 Price:

Larry Niven & Hal ColebatchMan-Kzin Wars X: The Wunder War Baen Books 2005 0743498941 / 9780743498944 Mass Market Paperback New Ships in 10-14 Day After Release date "The first colonists from Earth named the planet Wunderland. Generations later, the felinoid alien invaders called kzin came and turned it into hell." "Touched on in other accounts of the Man-Kzin wars, here for the first time is the decades-long saga of humankind's victorious Battle for Wunderland:" "How the Wunderlanders first learned of the kzin attacks on Earth by slow-as-light communications, barely in time to prepare to fight back; how the valiant human defenders turned to guerilla warfare in the Wunderland jungles and caves after the feline warrior race had destroyed or seized the cities; how, after the war ended in ignominious defeat for the Kzin, some humans and kzin worked for good will between the two species - their work complicated by humans wanting revenge and Kzin who still saw humans as a somewhat annoying food source; and how a human-kzin team was sent to investigate a mysterious asteroid and found a threat not only to both species, but to the entire galaxy." The humans wanted to destroy it, but the kzin saw an opportunity to conquer the human worlds. The only hope was a kzin telepath raised by humans from a cub. Which side would he choose, his Inner Monkey or his war-cat heritage? 9780743498944 0.00 Price:

Some secretly hatched schemes for a rematch, others concentrated on gathering power within the kzin hierarchy, and some shamefully cooperated with the contemptible humans, though often for hidden motives. In war and in uneasy peace, kzin and humans continue their adventures, as told by Hal Colebatch, Paul Chafe, and Michael Joseph Harrington, expanding on the concepts created by New York Times best-selling writer Larry Niven. 9781439134108 0.00 Price:
