David WeberMidst Toil and Tribulation

The hotly anticipated sixth volume in the New York Times bestselling Safehold series

After centuries of stasis, the island kingdom of Charis began to defy the edicts of the Church of God Awaiting—egged on, some say, by the mysterious warrior-monk Merlin Athrawes. Now, in the wars and intrigues that have cascaded from Charis’s declaration of independence, the populous Republic of Siddermark is sliding into chaos. Facing a pending civil war at harvest time, King Cayleb of Charis, his queen Sharleyan, and Merlin Athrawes will have their hands full trying to stave off wholesale starvation in Siddermark while at the same time shipping in enough land combat units to fend off the “volunteers” from the Church’s Temple Lands.

And while Vicar Clyntahn is hailed in the Church for his boldness and audacity, there are those who remember how dependent Church power is on money from Siddermark…and who wonder what will happen if Siddermark starves.

Scott Britz-CunninghamCode White A terrifying near-future medical thriller debut from a prominent doctor

Neurosurgeon Ali O’Day might have a Nobel Prize in her future—if she can survive the next thirteen hours. Surrounded by live television cameras, she is about to implant a mini-computer into the brain of a blind boy. If it works, he will see again. But once she begins to operate, the hospital pagers crackle, “CODE WHITE.” A bomb has been found, and no ordinary bomb. As minutes tick toward the deadline, Ali suspects that she herself may be the true ransom demand.
