Bear, Greg Darwin's Children: Darwin Book 2
New York, NY, U.S.A. Ballantine Publishing Group 2003 0345448359 / 9780345448354 First Edition Trade Paperback As Shipped from Publisher Advanced Reading Copy (ARC)
Advance reading copy.Cover copy - In Greg Bear's stunning new thriller, nature is more of a bitch goddess than a kindly mother, and evolution is no longer just a theory - it's an urgent and dangerous fact. In DARWIN'S CHILDREN, human society is about to get a complete makeover. A new kind of humanity is growing up. Some call them the Virus Children. They are special children, equipped with significant natural upgrades that allow them to communicate and socialize in ways we can hardly imagine, or resist. Charming, gentle, persuasive, beautiful... in them can be seen a future that may make all of human history until now seem clumsy and brutal. As products of an extraordinary evolutionary event called SHEVA that swept through the population like a contagious disease over a decade ago, they carry ancient viruses that could cause our extinction, viruses that may be triggered at any moment by stress, anger... or puberty. The new children are being methodically rounded up and sequestered in special schools where they are studied, measured and biopsied. Stella Nova, the daughter of Kaye Lang and Mitch Rafelson, is one of them. She is driven by instinct to be with her own kind, to establish a new kind of social order and discover her potential. Kaye and Mitch wish to protect her, but to do so, they must keep her isolated, stifled in a blanket of security that they all know must eventually be lifted. Despite their best efforts, Kaye, Mitch, and Stella are tracked by security forces that could break them apart as a family. The new children must be controlled, these forces believe; and the time may come when both species must either separate, or engage in outright war. In DARWIN'S CHILDREN, human society is about to get a complete makeover, and who will win is anyone's guess. For, as Kaye Lang discovers, silence is also a signal...

Bradley, Marion Zimmer THE STORM QUEEN
NY Greg Press 1979 0839825048 / 9780839825043 First edition in hardcover Hardcover / Boards VG No Jacket as issued
THE STORM QUEEN . Marion Zimmer Bradley.Gregg Press,New York. 1979. ISBN 0-8398-2504-8. First HARDCOVER EDITION. A VG+ COPY. Issued without DJ. Printed on acid free paper from the paperback original. Green cloth boards with holographic signature in gold leaf on front cover. Synopsis Published as a paperback original in 1978, this book is considered by most to be the second book in Darkover's timeline. It taking place during the Age of Chaos, when the Seven Domains of Darkover are ruled as independent, warring fiefs engaged in a psychic arms race, developing deadly weapons through the use of their psionics and genetically engineering their children to produce ever-stronger mental powers. One of the casualties of this breeding program is Dorilys, the Stormqueen of the title. Sweet-natured, yet extremely willful and spoiled, she is denied nothing--not only because she is Heir to the Aldaran Domain, but because she is able to enforce her demands with psychically-generated lightning bolts. But as she grows older, she becomes less and less able to control her storm-causing abilities.

But the Deputy Minister of Defense, who had by grudging common consent become Acting Premier, was a career army officer & only too ready to seize the military option as the best means of assert ing & consolidating his new power. And the target was not only obvious but vulnerable. "The Republic of Texas," intoned Acting Premier Luchenko. "we shall crush it underfoot as if it were a cockroach."
