Working in Denmark might seem straightforward for Americans: Danes speak excellent English, and Denmark is a great place to do business. Infrastructure is good, corruption is minimal, innovation is respected, and business structures are flexible. Still, many Americans put a foot wrong - often by being too energetic, too upbeat, too aggressive, too American.

Denmark is often called "the happiest country in the world", but what's it really like to live there? Can you find a job in Denmark only speaking English? How hard is it to deal with the long Danish winters - and is it true that people ride bicycles in the snow? What do modern Danes think about the Vikings? Is The Little Mermaid really worth a visit?

The Union of Humanity exists only because the aliens demanded it. After a hundred different treaties and countless broken promises, mankind's powerful neighbors forced humanity into a common defense and a single diplomatic voice. Yet within the Union's borders, the human race is as fractious as ever. When the star system of Archangel is invaded by the three greatest corporations in human space, the Union is powerless to intervene. Corporal Alicia Wong thrives on the front lines.
