Description:

If not for the intervention of the insectoid beings called the T’lack, the Faceless War would have ended with the extinction of Humanity and its Sibling Species. That intervention came at a great cost for the T’lack. No one knows or understands Humanity’s debt to the T’lack better than Jan Costa, who paid his own terrible price at the end of that war. Now the T’lack are themselves in grave danger, facing a devastating civil war between rival factions and threatened by a mysterious race of beings on the far side of T’lack space. Jan Costa leads a multi-species expeditionary force into the unknown, seeking to save his alien friends both from themselves and the new threat they have aroused. What he discovers out beyond the frontier will change everything, with the very existence of the T’lack hanging in the balance.

Description:

The greatest scientific challenge of our age wasn’t to enable time travel, it was to prevent it. The laws of physics had turned out to be idiotic, erecting no barriers to hopping time. In fact, they make it hard to avoid. Joad Bevan works for the Time Management Agency, an organization charged with the near-hopeless task of ensuring that the world sticks to the sacred rule of One Second Per Second, and that history unfolds according to plan. But he quickly discovers that there is no plan until he makes one.

"I thoroughly enjoyed it—a terrific Time romp that takes a hefty mallet to the Butterfly Theory and leaves it splattered in the road. Really good read."
— Rob Grant, co-creator of the Red Dwarf television series

"Unwin seems to have had quite a lot of fun engineering the plot’s Mobius strip twists and turns .... [The hero’s] refreshing attitude helps wind the mainspring of an SF subgenre that’s grown a bit lax from overuse.... If Michael Crichton’s 1999 novel Timeline had starred as astringent a lead character as Joad, maybe its 2003 movie adaptation would have been better.... Original touches and a misanthropic protagonist keep this clever time-travel tale ticking along nicely."
— Kirkus Reviews

MAROONED BEYOND THE EDGE OF CIVILIZATION
Deserted on a lawless backwater by his former employer, Terson Reilly faces stark choices: become mercenary cannon fodder when his money runs out, buy passage aboard another shady ship and hope the crew doesn’t cut his throat, or help the grifter who got him grounded in the first place find a treasure-laden derelict. The latter choice appears the lesser of three evils.
It would have been better for everyone if they hadn’t found it.

Description:

Jack Madigan is, by many accounts, blessed. He can still effortlessly turn a pretty head. And thanks to his legendary rock star father, he lives an enviable existence in a once-glorious, now-crumbling Boston town house with his teenage son, Harlan. But there is one tiny drawback: Jack is an agoraphobe. As long as his dad's admittedly dwindling royalties keep rolling in, Jack's condition isn't a problem. But then the money runs out . . . and all hell breaks loose.

The bank is foreclosing. Jack's ex is threatening to take Harlan to California. And Lucinda, the little girl next door, won't stay out of his kitchen . . . or his life. To save his sanity, Jack's path is clear, albeit impossible—he must outwit the bank's adorably determined real estate agent, win back his house, keep his son at home, and, finally, with Lucinda's help, find a way back to the world outside his door.
