I’m a trained cadet at the Warrior Academy on Haden. I’m female Hoganthan and full of feline ferocity. My squad and I are stretched to the limit, but will NOT. . . ever. . . opt out. So, our instructors sent us on a final test exercise - I think to get rid of us and our attitude. . . or maybe just to get rid of MY attitude. Anyway. That test turned out to be the easy part. Getting attacked again and again was a bit of a surprise, but hey, we’re warriors now. We’re used to it. That’s WHY we are at the Academy in the first place. Right? But. . . being attacked by a Cren invasion ...

I'm a raw cadet at the tough Warrior Academy on Haden. I've made it this far. . . barely. I know I just survived the assassination attempts by the alien pirates - authorized BY MY parents, the Emperor and Empress of the galactic Hoganthan Empire, but puleeeze, really? They had my brother sign the death decree? Really? And now, the only place I'm safe - uh, yeah, that IS a relative term - is the Warrior Academy as a rank, raw, untested cadet - the only place the House elites have limited reach. Well, yeah, but that doesn't stop them from trying to reach across space and kill me there, too. I...

I never expected to meet a handsome stranger on a family vacation with my brother, Chance, and his wife and son. And I sure as hell didn't expect to hop on a 19-day cruise with said handsome stranger across the Pacific. Hey, you only live once, right? I didn't have the best track record. I'd made some bad decisions in my life and hurt people in the process. For some reason, this trip felt like a new beginning for me; a fresh start to finally get my life back on track. I just didn't plan to fall in love in the process.

Renowned as FDR's favorite warship, the cruiser USS Houston was a prize target trapped in the far Pacific after Pearl Harbor. Without hope of reinforcement, her crew faced a superior Japanese force ruthlessly committed to total conquest. But the men of the Houston fought back with dignity, ingenuity, sabotage, willpower, and the undying faith that their country would prevail.

I’m 17 year-cycles old, female, feline Hoganthan and was on my journey to become an elite class space warrior. It is my life path and the one I chose. Actually, I’m thrilled with it - or, rather, was. . . I was THE princess of the monarchy, then disowned by my parents, then sentenced to death by my brother at the demand of the arrogant elites, then escaped the space pirates trying to kill me so that I could get to the Warrior Academy on Haden, just to have to deal with a really dumb invasion from space (what were the Cren thinking anyway?). But now? I’ve learned my parents and brother...

The Cruisers are in trouble - again. The freedom of expression they've enjoyed by publishing their own school newspaper, The Cruiser, has spread all the way to England, where kids from a school "across the pond" are now contributors to their own school's most talked-about publication. When photos start to go alongside the articles written by kids, things get suspicious. Zander, Kambui, LaShonda, Bobbi - and a bunch of students from Harlem’s Da Vinci Academy and London’s Phoenix School - come to learn that words and pictures in a newspaper don’t always tell the whole story.

Trinity can handle blowhards, bouncers, and self-styled sadhus. But jet-lag is a bitch. Cool, sympathetic, funny.
