Saltation (Liaden Universe)

Saltation (Liaden Universe)by Sharon LeeBaen

#12 in the Liaden® space opera series.  Theo, star pilot wannabe and troubled misfit has been accepted, against all her expectations, to Anlingdin. It’s the Hogwarts of star piloting academies, and Theo has been selected to train there with the best-of-the-best.  Even better – she can finally leave behind the gawky, misfit days of teenage angst her previous life so complicated before. Great Liaden star pilots are born with a bang and not a whimper–and Theo has set a course to graduate from misfit to genuine maverick.

Saltations

Saltationsby Jennifer StillThistledown Press

Jennifer Still’s lyric poetry investigates the ancestral forces and early family memories needed to construct the abrupt speciation of self. Avoiding the pitfalls of first book hauteur and odious confessionals, Saltations suggests how we evolve into the complex spirits, and personalities in which we find ourselves as adults, and “where am I now” becomes a reflective mantra in living. In language with textual dexterity and verbal intelligence, Still moves through prairie landscapes, precise flora and fauna, in intricate metaphors shrewdly worked for their resonance and harmony, and balances their weight with earthy, familiar universals of the human condition. These are poems of unmistakable quality and consistency, poems that herald a significant new poet.
