For eleven years, the Earth has been recovering from the supernova flare, but in the heart of the Texas Hill Country, a new threat has arisen, a bandit horde brutal enough to send Helen Black, the independent minded horse doctor and rugged survivor of the Star Time to seek help from the Austin City Guards. Only James Fuller, son of the despotic Mayor, has his own priorities, with no time for the pretty, but rude and outspoken girl he'd met only once before, when they were children. The fate of the city and all its people depended on what he could do with a handful of troops, broken...

On the poisonous world of Ko, the U'tanse-a breed of psychically gifted humans-struggle to find their destiny under the brutal control of their Cerik overlords. Life or death was at the whim of their masters' claws. Joshua was the first freeborn U'tanse, born to Cyclops, a blinded worker, and Debbie, a Festival girl, at a hidden refuge composed of slaves discarded to die by their masters. Joshua's first assignment as part of the group's network of free telepathic spies was to monitor Samson, a U'tanse warrior bred to be a giant, strong enough to fight alongside the predatory Cerik, and...

The Cerik raid on supernova-damaged Earth was a failure, but with a pair of humans in his claws, the leader hoped to breed a new race of slaves to replace the Builders, their technologists, that they had wiped out in a fit of revenge. Born of necessity, this pact between Abe and Sharon of Texas and the Cerik, was the genesis of the U'tanse, a psychically gifted splinter of humanity-trapped by violent masters and made to be slaves on a poisonous world. Read these tales from the first generations of a new humanity: James, the first boy born without telepathy in a world where everyone else...

It all starts here... The plan always worked for the bloodthirsty Cerik, whose battle-bred claws and muscles made them the uncontested top predator on scores of planets-the radiation pulse from the supernova would turn civilization on the blue-white globe below into chaos within days, making for easy prey. In Texas, in a wooden cabin where she'd hidden from regular humans since birth, telepathic Sharon Dae knew nothing could prevent humanity from becoming another tasty slave race-she'd read it plainly from the thoughts in the sky. A scout ship had crashed in her woods, but these alien...

Mars was terraformed, and the biotech engineers could walk on Luna without breathing gear. Earth had three moons and hundreds of orbiting habitats in the Clusters. The great Terraforming Project was hitting its stride, but there were conflicts over which nations would get favored colonization sites on Luna and the antitechnology Three Sins cult was demanding that it all stop. But what disturbed Dr. Bet Nomad, circuit doctor for many of the minor habitats in the Clusters was a simple cough that seemed to be found every place she visited. The more she learned, using banned genetic...

Samuel Bolls' plan was simple-go to California and parlay his camera and editing skills and the connection with his famous uncle into an entertainment industry career-but fate had other ideas. Rachael Nue, aspiring actress, with enough genetic enhancements to make her perfect saw Samuel as her way to stardom. And the giant living blimps flying overhead had their own fiery date with destiny. A hundred years after the supernova flare had set everything back, the world had been on two conflicting paths to recovery-industrial vs. genetic engineering. Samuel and Rachael's opportunity to...

Joshua was born a Free U'tanse, one of the few humans not under the claw of the Cerik who ruled the poisonous planet Ko. But after the rescue of the abandoned people of Rikna, it became his job to keep the existence of the refugees secret--putting him at odds with people who couldn't realize that a single stray thought was deadly on a world where telepaths were everywhere.

The U'tanse branch of the Project Saga reveals the struggles of a psychically gifted splinter of humanity, making their way on a world that could never be their own.

Captain Pearce never intended to be a teacher, but the only way she could escape her early retirement on Earth and get back out into the vacuum was to share the human side of the great Terraforming Project to young political appointees hoping to become Fleet cadets. Hiding her old secrets had given her a unique view of the past failures and the ongoing dream that powered the greatest macro-engineering task of all-remaking the Solar System into new habitable planets for mankind. Stationed on Ceres, formerly an asteroid, now the second largest moon of Earth and headquarters of the Project,...
