Free from predators and human impact, the whales thrive in their new home, growing in size and intelligence. Everything is perfect. Until humans decide to establish floating towns on Cachalot, drawn by the planet's abundant natural resources. Now someone or something is killing off Cachalot's human population, a mystery a team of marine biologists has to been sent to Cachalot to solve—a mission that could cost them their lives.

  Men could not survive outside their world. 
  Líf believed this. Her family believed this as well. So, what they had done was just short of impossible. They had left Midgard's shores only to arrive in Jötunheim, the realm of giants that gave this land its name. Gods be with them. 
  After freeing the slave, Brasir, Líf and her family were outlawed. The only way to regain the good graces of their people was to prove that the warning Brasir brought was true. All humanity was in peril, and only he, because of his unique and innate gift, could prevent it. Yet, he was not the only one born with a special ability. Líf could see and communicate with each person's animal-shaped guardian spirit. 
  Líf's trust in this stranger's word had begun this dangerous journey. But would she be alive when it ended?

  Fee of The Frontier

  Fee of the Frontier by H. B. Fyfe	- They didn't think of themselves as pioneers. They simply had a job to do. And if they had to give up money, or power, or love—or life itself—that was the FEE OF THE FRONTIER 
  From inside the dome, the night sky is a beautiful thing, even though Deimos and Phobos are nothing to brag about. If you walk outside, maybe as far as the rocket field, you notice a difference. 
  Past the narrow developed strip around the dome, the desert land lies as chilled and brittle as it did for eons before Earthmen reached Mars. The sky is suddenly raw and cruel. You pull your furs around your nose and check your oxygen mask, and wish you were inside something, even a thin wall of clear plastic. 
  I like to stand here, though, and look out at it, just thinking about how far those ships grope out into the dark nowadays, and about the men who have gone out there on a few jets and a lot of guts. I knew a bunch of them ... some still out there, I guess. 
  There was a time when nearly everything had to be rocketed out from Earth, before they organized all those chemical tricks that change the Martian crops to real food. Domes weren't fancy then. Adequate, of course; no sense in taking chances with lives that cost so much fuel to bring here. Still, the colonies kept growing. Where people go, others follow to live off them, one way or another. It began to look like time for the next step outward. 
  Oh, the Asteroids ... sure. Not them. I did a bit of hopping there in my own time. In fact—on account of conditions beyond my choice and control—I spent too much time on the wrong side of the hull shields. One fine day, the medics told me I'd have to be a Martian for the rest of my life. Even the one-way hop back to Earth was "not recommended." 
  So I used to watch the ships go out. I still remember one that almost missed leaving.
