Chess with a Dragon

"From the Hugo and Nebula Award–winning author of The Martian Child: 'This playful, intricate game of survival . . . is one of Gerrold's best books.' —Publishers Weekly   The human race has been played for a fool. Though welcomed into the galactic community and given access to the combined knowledge of thousands of intelligent species, humans are largely regarded as an evolutionary mistake. Reptilian, insectoid, and other unclassifiable species are the dominant forms of intelligence. If it hadn't been for that annoying comet, the dinosaurs would have continued their evolutionary journey to sentience. Instead the ridiculous mammalians survived. And they want to be treated as equals.   Now the humans find out that the Galactic Encyclopedia has a user fee—and they are overdrawn! If the debt can't be paid, humanity will be sold as slaves . . . or food. Asst. Liaison Officer Yake Singh Browne feels personally betrayed. He comes up with a strategy: If humanity can't win playing by the rules of the game, he'll just have to change the rules.   Game on!   'Taut and well-constructed, providing a convincing glimpse of alien biology and psychology . . . A good yarn.' —Kirkus Reviews   'Gerrold has written a fine but demanding science-fiction novel . . . Those with perseverance will enjoy the story's campy humor and unexpected plot twists.' —School Library Journal    "

Demon Marked

"Life has taught me one very important lesson: . . . other people SUCK! I just spent my 21st birthday in a coma with a head injury, while my now-EX-boyfriend Adam used it as an opportunity to start dating my backstabbing now-EX-roommate. And ever since the accident, weird things have been happening . . . Enter the gorgeous Carter Black—tall and clean-shaven, with mysterious dark brown eyes that make my inner goddess shiver in anticipation. Oh yeah, did I mention he’s a VAMPIRE? But hey, nobody’s perfect. He claims he can help me figure out what is going on with me—insists I need his protection from evil things that go bump in the night. I’m a survivor, but I’ll admit, this DEMON crap is starting to scare me. But no matter how much Carter has me thinking naughty thoughts . . . Something tells me there is more to him than meets the eye I’ve been down this road before with hot guys, and I won’t make the same mistake again. Now I’ll just have to figure out how to STAY ALIVE without his help . . ."
