Paperback. Condición: Very Good. Computer programmer Chloe Malcolm doesn't know how she let her best friend talk her into attending her ten-year high school reunion. But when Dylan Echols--her former crush turned major league baseball player--mistakes her for a popular cheerleader, she decides to make the most of the Cinderella moment. Dylan can't believe it when the gorgeous woman he just kissed runs away. He's even more stunned to discover she's not the person he thought she was. Chloe knows she can't deceive the sexy sports star forever. But once she tells Dylan the truth, will she turn back into her tongue-tied former self? Or will he love her for who she is and give her the happily-ever-after she's always dreamed of.…

Hardback. Condición: Very Good. The dawn of the twenty-second century finds women in a new world where water-the lack of it or the over-abundance of it-shapes their inner and outer lives. Sara turns eighteen and longs to join the all-women's Kurdish army to wrestle control of the headwaters of the Euphrates River from the grip of Turkiye's first woman President, who calls herself "Ataturka." These two women share a common enemy that has infected the globe: climate despair. And yet, in the darkest hour there is cause for hope. A new technology born of the secret substances of the Earth could transform the planet. Only the power structures of humanity stand in the way. Can Sara and Ataturka help one another create a new form of power defined by the depth and scope of their hearts, or will the Water War bitterly divide them? Will their passion for life, for love, for a world where all living things can flourish pull them down into the darkest cavern of the human soul or catapult them to the stars.…

Paperback. Condición: Good. Winner of the 2012 James Tiptree Jr. Award, Ancient, Ancient collects the short fiction by Kiini Ibura Salaam, of which acclaimed author and critic Nalo Hopkinson writes, ''Salaam treats words like the seductive weapons they are. She wields them to weave fierce, gorgeous stories that stroke your sensibilities, challenge your preconceptions, and leave you breathless with their beauty.'' In naming Ancient, Ancient one of the Best Fantasy and Science Fiction Books of 2012, Jeff VanderMeer writes, Magic and sexuality permeate these stories that seek the emotional core of their characters. Interesting settings and Salaam's exuberant but controlled prose help to anchor narratives that are continually question, pushing for something beyond the usual. Indeed, Ms. Salaam's stories are so permeated with sensuality that in her introduction to Ancient, Ancient, Nisi Shawl, author of the award-winning Filter House, writes, ''Sexuality-cum-sensuality is the experiential link between mind and matter. And it is the throbbing, glistening heart of Kiini's body of work. This book is alive. Be not afraid.'' ''Kiini Ibura Salaam's collection of short fiction, Ancient, Ancient, demonstrates that she deserves to be considered one of today's most promising contemporary genre writers. With writing that challenges assumptions on gender, the nature of fantasy, the uses of myth and much more, she offers the readers stories that they will not soon forget. A marvelous introduction to a marvelous writer.''--Jack Womack, author of Random Acts of Senseless Violence '''Kiini Ibura Salaam is a natural-born storyteller and a gorgeous writer who chooses her characters and words with the care and skill of a poet. Her stories are transformative, wise and vivid with the quality of fantasy and fable. I loved reading this ''--Sheree Renee Thomas, author of Shotgun Lullabies: Stories and Poems and editor of the award-winning Dark Matter anthologies This collection of moving stories interleaves many themes, perhaps the most effective for me being the alienation of the foreigner.Throughout the language is stunning, like music become words. I found my own mind dazzled and my imagination stretched to keep up with the flow of images.-- Martha Hubbard , The Future Fire.…
