I felt this one was awesome enough for its own post.
Also, a collation of my recent book previews:
Available Dark by Elizabeth Hand. Noir thriller with Norwegian Black Metal. This book rocks.
Charlie Cochrane’s Dreams of a Hero. A fairly short story about a gay couple living in their happily-ever-after.
Cath Crowley’s Graffiti Moon, a YA about art and love and our real selves.
Firelight by Kristen Callihan, an angsty Paranormal Romance that takes its worldbuilding in some interesting directions.
Heroic Don’ts.

Finding Refuge:
Telepathic warrior Talia Avi, genius engineer Miki Boudreaux, and augmented soldier Faigin Balfour fought the fascist Federated Colonies for ten years, following the charismatic dissenter Jon Churchill. Then Jon disappeared, Talia was thought dead, and Miki and Faigin struggled to take Jon’s place and stay alive. When the FC is unexpectedly upended, Talia is reunited with her friends and they are given sanctuary on the enigmatic planet Refuge. The trio of former guerillas strive to recover from lifetimes of trauma, build new lives on a planet with endless horizons, and forge tender new connections with each other.
