I LINKED HIS FIRST PUBLICATION LAST MONTH. THE YOUNG MAN HAS FOLLOW-THROUGH:

FROM SCOTT SLACK:  By Three Moons’ Light.

 

Lieutenant Brown has a simple set of orders: Destroy a buried Karstian anti-orbital laser. If he does, the Strathar fleet he’s vanguard for can take the fight to the Karstian invaders who seized the planet from Strath.

Unfortunately, simple’s not the same as easy on the planet Jotunheim. First, his platoon has to make a long march undetected through the deep wilderness. If they survive, there’s still the hard fight against the military installation ahead. If he fails, the fleet and the invasion are at risk.

A story of The Ares March.

 

ALL HUMAN LIVES. EVERY SINGLE ONE:  Whose Lives Matter?

IF IT IS ON FACEBOOK YOU CAN BE CONFIDENT IT IS (POLITICALLY) CORRECT:  China using propaganda ads on Facebook to show oppressed Muslims happy.

About as valid as the Russians declaring Putin sexy, to be fair. Okay, maybe a little less though you know people who consider Putin sexy probably don’t remember what sex is.

OF COURSE HE IS…  HE’S ALSO AN EX KGB DIRECTOR, SO HE KNOWS WHEN YOU SLEEP AND HE KNOWS WHEN YOU’RE AWAKE:   Putin is Russia’s sexiest man, Russian poll finds.

Not that this would influence anyone’s poll answer.

TO BE FAIR, ALREADY 20 YEARS AGO THEY CRACKED DOWN ON MIDDLE CLASS KIDS, BUT GAVE A PASS TO THOSE THEY WERE SCARED OF:  Colorado Bill Will Legalize Crime In Schools.

This just makes it clear and visible.

FROM CEDAR SANDERSON:  The Case of the Perambulating Hatrack.

She was trouble, and from the moment she sailed into his office in search of a PI, Soldagh Dennessey was caught in her wake.

In a city where the streets started mean and went worse, Soldagh had carved a relatively solitary existence out between the goblins in their dens of minty iniquity, and the gnomes who’d snitch on their own mothers for rent money. Rough as it was, he’d come from worse family, and had no intention of going back.

As the case grows tangled and terrifying, Soldagh is starting to suspect the past he’s been avoiding lies at the bleeding heart of the matter. And only the few friendships he’s made and an unexpected ally might be enough to save them now…

THERE MIGHT BE A TIME FOR GLOOM. BUT THIS IS NOT IT: But The Lizard Will Surely Die.

Anger, yes. Rage, yes. Gloom? Oh, please.

FROM M.C.A. HOGARTH:  Mindtouch.

Seersana University is worlds-renowned for its xenopsychology program, producing the Alliance’s finest therapists, psychiatric nurses and alien researchers. When Jahir, one of the rare and reclusive Eldritch espers, arrives on campus, he’s unprepared for the challenges of a vast and multicultural society… but fortunately, second-year student Vasiht’h is willing to take him under his wing. Will the two win past their troubles and doubts and see the potential for a once-in-a-lifetime partnership?
