The Proteus Bridge by M. D. Cooper,James S. Aaron Pdf

Croon-ya! Rhymes with ruin-ya! Cruithne Station: an ugly hunk of rock in a wobbly orbit between Mars and Earth. Future Casablanca. Smuggler's paradise. Deep in the Info Jungle. A hive of scum and villainy where anything is had for a price. Croon-ya! So squawk the gray parrots of Cruithne Station's Night Park. How these super-intelligent birds came to occupy a dead fountain in the middle of Sol's criminal underbelly is a story of secret laboratories, uplifted animals and AI experimentation, with a frosty topping of gambling, piracy and totalitarian espionage. For orphans Fugia Wong and Ngoba Starl, growing up in the depths of Cruithne's Lowspin Sector means hustle or die. So they hustle. And they're damn good at it. When friendship with one of the station's famous Gray Parrots opens the door on a secret smuggling operation for illegal AI between InnerSol and Neptune's Proteus, they'll have to choose between the hustle and doing the right thing. Or as Ngoba asks: Why not both? Sometimes winning the game means making your own path. And that path may turn into a bridge that leads not only to Proteus, but to the Sentience Wars.

Desert Bound by TW Iain Pdf

Ryann never wanted to be a commander. Nor did she want to be a fugitive, on the run from the company that trained and enhanced her. And she definitely didn't want to end up in a lawless desert city, hunting an ancient tech relic for a double-crossing crime boss. The relic is the key to untapped power, and others hunt it with ruthless determination, willing to kill any who get in their way. As enemies close in, as the company watches from the shadows, and as her crew crumbles around her, Ryann must fight like she’s never fought before. Desert Bound is the first book in the sci-fi/adventure series ShadowTech.

Now she slings cargo on Dekar Station, falling deeper in debt as she struggles to make enough money to keep her cybernetic body functioning.

Their mission is to kill the world's president, and her mods and abilities are just what they need to get the job done. Whether she likes it or not, Rika is in the business of killing once more as she joins the ranks of the Marauders.

Lyssa's Dream by M. D. Cooper,James S. Aaron Pdf

It has been one-hundred and seventy-five years since the birth of the first truly sentient AI. It has been just two short years since Lyssa's birth... Captain Andy Sykes just wants to keep his family in one piece. Once a combat pilot for the TSF, he gave it all up for love and a family. But two years ago, his wife disappeared, leaving him with two mouths to feed: eight year-old Tim, ten year-old Cara. Since then, he's managed to scrape a living hauling cargo between the Jovian Combine and InnerSol. It's not glamorous, his ship's falling apart, and it's boring as hell, but it keeps them in fuel and calories. When a cargo run to Cruithne Station meets with more than one catastrophe, Andy finds himself accepting an offer a less desperate man would refuse: delivering an illegal AI named Lyssa. The AI is the property of Heartbridge, a powerful, interplanetary corporation, and they want their latest weapon back. With a private army, gangs, and pirates all vying for the precious cargo Andy carries, it's going to take everything Andy has to keep his ship flying, his kids safe, and get Lyssa to her destination. Even if he succeeds, Lyssa's very existence may spark a war like no other humanity has ever seen.
