Sinopsis

A public assassination puts a bounty on Leilani's head . . . and another mystery in her lap. Leilani Falconi is no longer an IIS agent; in fact, no one is. With the Imperial Investigative Service disbanded, and an entire system after her for the murder of Admiral Jason Dorthy, Leilani evades detection with her inherent smarts and skill. But there's an ever-present gnawing at the back of her mind: she's missing something, something big. Apparently, so are the known galaxies. When she returns to her roots at ELU, identities unravel-no one is who they appear to be, even herself. To make matters worse, unfolding historical timelines point to a complicated mystery still shaping present-day conflicts. Lei knows the power-grab that started the puzzle is far from over. What was hidden must be found-by her first, if she wants to keep a powerful technological revolution from falling into the wrong hands, and preserve the galaxy from spiraling into oblivion. The mystery and wit in Wendi Coffman-Porter's second book of the Eldrilin Chronicles, The Grand Veeshali, will have readers on their toes as this sci-fi crime bridges the line between fantasy, technology, and reality.

    When reporter Joe Dunn wakes atop the RCA Building after a violent storm, he expects the noise and pulse of Manhattan below. Instead, he finds a city without motion, sound, or people—an entire world halted in a single moment of time. As he wanders through silent streets, deserted buildings, and motionless rivers, he becomes convinced he may be the last man left alive. But everything changes when he discovers that he isn’t alone, and that the truth behind the frozen world may lie in the cryptic warnings of a strange man he once interviewed in New Jersey. 
    The Last Man in New York unfolds as an atmospheric, thoughtful tale of isolation, unexpected companionship, and cosmic bookkeeping gone awry. Paul MacNamara blends urban eeriness with an imaginative twist, turning a familiar metropolis into a haunting landscape of stillness and unanswered questions. 
    Paul MacNamara was a mid-century science-fiction writer known for his strong character voices and unexpected story turns. Writing during an era when magazines were the heart of the genre, he contributed memorable tales that blended humor, suspense, and big-idea speculation. His works often reflected the anxieties and aspirations of the postwar world, grounding cosmic possibilities in recognizable human emotions. 
    Though less widely known today, MacNamara’s stories remain a window into the era’s inventive spirit. His writing continues to intrigue listeners and readers who enjoy imaginative storytelling with a playful but unsettling edge.

    Never Trust A Thief! by Robert Silverberg - Kiley felt all-powerful with the alien guiding him in the looting of a world. Now the whole galaxy was his if he could remember to—Never Trust A Thief! 
    Kiley took one last, fond look at the glittering heap of jewels in the back of the spaceship, nodded happily to himself, and began to set up a blastoff orbit. Somewhere down on the field far below, he could see dot-like figures—spaceport attendants, all firmly convinced that this was an authorized flight. 
    He chuckled. This is the right way to pull a job, he thought contentedly. Hypnotize 'em silly and then walk in and take what you want. 
    His fingers skipped lightly over the control panel as he readied the ship for blastoff. For the first time in his life he felt truly happy. Two million stellors of rare gems in the back of the ship, and even after cutting Thaklaru in for his share, that still left a million. A million stellors! Lord, that sounded good! 
    Well, Kiley, are you going to spend all day dreaming? I'm waiting for you! 
    The rolling thunder of Thaklaru's voice in Kiley's mind jolted him back to reality. "I'm on my way," he said out loud, knowing that the alien was listening. "I've got the stuff, and I'll be there before you know it." 
    Good. I'm anxious to see those jewels. 
    "Don't worry about it, Thaklaru."
