The future of our society depends on our gifted children - the population in which we'll find our next Isaac Newton, Albert Einstein, or Virginia Woolf. Yet the gifts and talents of some of our most brilliant kids may never be recognized because these children fall into a group known as twice exceptional, or "2e". Twice exceptional kids are both gifted and diagnosed with a disability - often ADHD or an autism spectrum disorder - leading teachers and parents to overlook the child's talents and focus solely on his weaknesses.

On a planet that was once part of a vast interstellar civilization, humans survive on the edge of barbarism amid the ruins of the once-great empire.

A monolithic computer is using General Raj Whitehall to reunite the planet and start humanity back on the road to technological achievement, but armies of musket- and saber-wielding barbarians stand in the way.

With the aid of a sentient battle computer, Raj Whitehall and his band of sworn Companions struggle to reunite the entire planet of Bellevue and find their mission impeded by Barholm Clerett.

On a mission to reunite the planet Bellvue, Raj Whitehall and his men must conquer a group of barbarians or else his civilization could plunge into an era of darkness.

Planted by interstellar probes on hundreds of human-occupied worlds, the downloaded personalities of Raj Whitehall and the ancient battle computer known as Center work together for planetary unity. Their goal is to prepare those worlds for membership in the Second Federation of Man. But on one planet they do the opposite: on Visager they work to prevent unity.

Somewhere in the backwoods of northwestern Rhode Island lies a secret. During the Revolutionary War, General Washington’s spies were everywhere, passing information about Redcoat troop movements, relaying military orders among the colonies’ militia, gathering and stockpiling caches of resources necessary to the war effort. Yet, many of these “spies” were farmers functioning barely above subsistence levels. What patriotism they felt sometimes had to take a back seat to feeding and sheltering their families. Nathaniel Tillinghast was one such farmer.

In these ten high-heat tales, corporate corridors turn into corridors of temptation, and neat cubicles become stages for desire that refuses to stay buttoned-up. Each story drips with tension—the brush of a tie against bare skin, the whisper of a reprimand that becomes a dare, the scrape of a chair echoing like a promise. The air is thick with the scent of paper, toner, and want; every sound amplifies until even a pen’s click feels like foreplay.
