Note the shiny new covers:
In a new world, there are new challenges, new dangers…new
ways to die.
Carl Orin, Basement Five’s first cybernaut is lost in a
universe of bits and bytes. His rival, Dr. Tania Flowers, should be happy that
karma has bitten Carl in the backside, but she’s itching to get into cyberspace
herself and what better excuse than a one-woman rescue mission?
Tania thinks she’s prepared for what she’ll find, but she’s
about to discover that the digital world is more dangerous than she imagined.
When she finds Carl, she faces a bigger issue than her injured pride. An
AI-fuelled botnet is devastating the digital landscape, and only a suicide
mission into its core will avert total disaster. In the midst of their
rekindled passion, hard decisions need to be made. Who will attempt the
impossible? Who will stay behind? And what happens if either of them fails?
This book will appeal to readers who like cyberpunk, a PoC
main character, contemporary setting, and movies such as Tron and Matrix.

Gilthen Ahn is captain of the Darck Banks cartel, a pirate
band working deep in Republic space. He has six ships under his command and,
unless he finds money to pay off his substantial debts, he’ll lose everything.
Tera d’Olzon is a privileged member of Republic high
society, trying to make a difference by thumbing her nose at everything her
family stands for. Unfortunately, things haven’t quite turned out the way she
anticipated and, while running from Security Forces, she is “rescued” by Gil’s
cartel.
The reasonable thing for the cartel to do is to ransom her.
But that won’t bring in enough money. So Gil hatches a plan…
For readers of historical romances, those who like PoC main
characters, sarcastic heroines, space pirates and Pyg(malion) in spaaaacce!
