Young Alice Dare is relieved that at last humans and the alien Morrors are now living peacefully together on Earth. But with an influx of too many Morrors, space is getting a bit tight. To make room for all the Morrors, they've been terraforming a cold little moon in the Alpha Centauri system—and Alice and her friends are invited to the inauguration of the Morrors' new home! But just as they're approaching Alpha Centauri, the kids are kidnapped by the hostile Krakkiluks and must save themselves—and the Eemala people in the process!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2022 Heggoy Prize from the French Colonial Historical Society Royal Historical Society's 2022 Gladstone Book Prize Shortlist Hostages of Empire combines a social history of colonial prisoner-of-war experiences with a broader analysis of their role in Vichy's political tensions with the country's German occupiers. The colonial prisoners of war came from across the French Empire, they fought in the Battle for France in 1940, and they were captured by the German Army. Unlike their French counterparts, who were taken to Germany, the colonial POWs were interned in camps called Frontstalags throughout occupied France. This decision to keep colonial POWs in France defined not only their experience of captivity but also how the French and German authorities reacted to them. Hostages of Empire examines how the entanglement of French national pride after the 1940 defeat and the need for increased imperial control shaped the experiences of 85,000 soldiers in German captivity. Sarah Ann Frank analyzes the nature of Vichy's imperial commitments and collaboration with its German occupiers and argues that the Vichy regime actively improved conditions of captivity for colonial prisoners in an attempt to secure their present and future loyalty. This French "magnanimity" toward the colonial prisoners was part of a broader framework of racial difference and hierarchy. As such, the relatively dignified treatment of colonial prisoners must be viewed as a paradox in light of Vichy and Free French racism in the colonies and the Vichy regime's complicity in the Holocaust. Hostages of Empire seeks to reconcile two previously rather distinct histories: that of metropolitan France and that of the French colonies during World War II.

Book excerpt: The Earth is almost dead. The only hope humanity has rests with two giant starships that are speeding across the galaxy. The starships are captained by two captains that have had a dislike for each other since their first encounter. They are headed to the only planet found that would support life as we know it: a planet found by a recon drone and known only as LK80. On board the two ships is the TRANSCON, an interdimensional portal that can teleport the people of Earth to the new planet, if they can reach it in time. Something has happened on Earth, for they have had no communications since a frantic call for help was heard. Was Earth still there? What will they find at the end of their journey? What news if any will they hear from Earth? Find out as The Saga Begins. PART 2 will be out in late 2012 or early 2013. Thanks, Don Walker
