Publishers in flux
Books go out of print -- and/or publishers out of business. The books then often move to a new publisher (if not always immediately). If an old post's embedded Amazon (or Kindle) link to a book doesn't work, try searching on the title at Amazon directly.

Juggler of Worlds (FoW #2)
“A snazzy thriller/mystery that keeps us (and our hero) guessing until the very end ...

Betrayer of Worlds (FOW #4)
“Rescues, captures, kidnappings, reluctant temporary alliances, backdoor negotiations, propaganda campaigns, bluffs and double-bluffs, alien and cross-species politics, and, of course, betrayals.

About Me
- Edward M. Lerner
- I'm a physicist and computer scientist (and an MBA, of less relevance to most of these posts). After thirty years in industry, as everything from individual technical contributor to senior vice president, I now write full-time. Mostly I write science fiction and techno-thrillers, now and again throwing in a straight science or technology article.
For a bibliography, more detailed biography, and lots more, visit my website. For occasional announcements sent direct to your mail box, join the Edward M. Lerner news group. Or follow me on facebook
