Surviving the Transition

How Writers Can Thrive in the New World of Publishing

By: Kristine Kathryn Rusch

Most writers run their careers the same way they did in the 1990s. But publishing has changed so much since then that any writer who works on the old model will no longer make a living. In this short book, international bestselling writer Kristine Kathryn Rusch shows you how to think about the new world of publishing, who to trust, and who not to trust. She also gives you a blueprint for survival—what to learn, what to ignore, and how to find help. If you are a successful professional writer—or hope to become one—then this book is for you. “I have friends who have absolutely relied on Rusch's advice and it never leads them astray.”—Orson Scott Card,New York Times bestselling author“Not many people understand the publishing business as well as the author business—Kris Rusch is one of them.” —Kevin J. Anderson, New York Times bestselling author“Kristine Kathryn Rusch still knows twice what I do about writing and publishing. Good thing she's put all her wisdom down in a book so I can start stealing some of it.”—Steve Hockensmith,New York Times bestselling author

Stealth: A Diving Universe Novella

By: Kristine Kathryn Rusch

Stealth tech: a lost science everyone wants to reclaim. The woman who helped Boss dive the Dignity Vessel, known then as Squishy, claims a long and storied history with stealth tech. Her research into the lost science caused deaths before, and she failed to prevent them during that fateful dive. Now, she vows to find a way to destroy the technology once and for all. Chosen as one of the best novellas of 2011 by the readers of Asimov's SF Magazine, Stealth tells Squishy's story and adds a rich dimension to the quest for stealth tech. The Stealth novella also appears in a slightly different form in its entirety in the novel Boneyards. "Stealth" is an exciting SF tale set in a rich, well-constructed world, and for that it deserves to be read by any SF fan. -Tangent Online What new can I say about Kristine Kathryn Rusch? She's one of the best in the business and ["Stealth"] is another example of why I think so. -SFRevu

Soon he will be utterly alone, faced only with survival and what will become the driving force of his life: the quest to recover his stolen inheritance, his usurped throne, his home.

Skirmishes

A Diving Universe Novel

By: Kristine Kathryn Rusch

The answers Captain Jonathon "Coop" Cooper and the crew of the Ivoire seek lie in the Boneyards. But they must wait for Boss and her team to dive it, explore the wrecks, and piece together what happened in that faraway place. Boss loves the challenge. Thousands of ships, centuries of history, all play to her strengths. In her absence, she trusts Coop to defend the Nine Planets Alliance against the Enterran Empire. But an encounter from Coop's recent past shows up to haunt him, an encounter he never told Boss about, an encounter that could threaten her future, his life, and the fragile peace between the Alliance and the Empire. A combination of first-person and third-person narrative and flashback segments makes this a complex and compelling story. It's like having three tales in one, with an added peek into the bad guys' activities, all of them intriguing, classic science fiction. It leaves the reader eager to explore this universe again and see what will happen next with these characters. -RT Book Reviews The Diving Universe, conceived buy Hugo-Award winning author Kristine [Kathryn] Rusch is a refreshingly new and fleshed out realm of sci-fi action and adventure. And the latest offering...doesn't disappoint. -Dave Dickinson, Astroguyz ..".there's wreck diving, space battling, and even a bit of romance here. Throw in plenty of suspense and several plot twists, and you have adventure SF in the old tradition." -Bill Crider's Pop Culture Magazine "There's adventure, suspense, intrigue, and not a few surprises, all in Rusch's quick, light prose. Boss, as much historian as salvager, reminds one of a Poul Anderson or Gordon R. Dickson protagonist. This is definitely a fun universe to visit: dive in!" -Don Sakers, Analog

Santa and Other Christmas Criminals

By: Kristine Kathryn Rusch

Think about it: Santa sneaks in during the dead of night. He steals cookies, drinks some milk, maybe tracks ashes all over the living room. Yeah, he leaves presents, but maybe that's just a cover for more nefarious behavior. Who knows...besides Santa himself? The darker side of Santa shows up in two of the Christmas stories in this collection, "Doubting Thomas" and "Rehabilitation." Real criminals-the scary kind-make an appearance in "Snow Angels" and "Substitutions." And just to add a bit of the proper Christmas sentiment, "Nutball Season" closes the volume-with a not-so-sinister Santa, a little boy, and a cop stamping his feet in the snow on Christmas Eve. "Rusch is a great storyteller." -Romantic Times "[Rusch's] short fiction is golden." -The Kansas City Star

The Enemy Within

By: Kristine Kathryn Rusch

One of Kristine Kathryn Rusch's most acclaimed short stories becomes one of her most original novels. February, 1964: Two men die in a squalid alley in a bad neighborhood. New York Homicide Detective Seamus O'Reilly receives the shock of his life when he looks at the men's identification: J. Edgar Hoover, the famous, tyrannical director of the FBI, and his number one assistant, Clyde Tolson. O'Reilly teams up with FBI agent Frank Bryce to solve the second high-level assassination in only three months. Because in November of the previous year, someone assassinated President John F. Kennedy. The cop and the FBI agent must determine if the same shadowy organization committed all three murders. To do so, they must act quickly before some of the nation's most powerful men-from Kennedy's brother, Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy, to the President of the United States, Lyndon Baines Johnson-do something rash to keep Hoover's secrets from ever becoming public. In our world, Hoover kept his secrets until long after his death. In Seamus O'Reilly's world, Hoover's secrets get him killed. The Enemy Within offers alternate history so plausible that only Kristine Kathryn Rusch could have written it. "A dark, yet fascinating tale, The Enemy Within gives readers an intriguing look at what could have happened in 1964 New York." -RT Book Reviews "Rusch weaves a convincing alternate history tale of 'what ifs' that interlaces with our own history of those troubled times. ... Be sure to read Kristine Kathryn's Rusch's latest thriller The Enemy Within for non-stop political intrigue!" -Dave Dickinson, Astroguyz "[Enemy Within] is a blend of mystery, political thriller, and alternate history. It was a compelling read I had trouble putting down. ... This is one fans of political thrillers won't want to miss." -Keith West, Adventures Fantastic "[The Enemy Within] moves fast and has a surprising twist at the end. It's fine 'what-if' reading, and there's a sequel in the works. Check it out." -Bill Crider's Pop Culture Magazine "Entertaining and well written." -Gumshoe

While survivors search for missing loved ones and the rich and powerful set plans in motion to capitalize on the Moon's misfortune, one ruthless man vows to uncover those responsible for the attacks on the Moon. Luc Deshin, the most feared man in Armstrong, knows all too well the bombings could have killed the wife and son he loves more than life itself. To protect his family, Deshin immerses himself in a criminal network he fought long and hard to leave behind. Deshin doesn't scare easily, but what he finds in the black market underbelly of the Moon will chill him to the bone. "Fans of Rusch's Retrieval Artist universe will enjoy the expansion of the Anniversary Day story, with new characters providing more perspectives on its signature events, while newcomers will get a good introduction to the series." -Publishers Weekly on A Murder of Clones "Filled with plenty of action, a deep cast and an intense philosophical ethical debate re what a human is; the third Retrieval Artist Universe: The Anniversary Day saga is a fantastic thriller as the audience obtains new perspectives re the pivotal tragedy. Readers do not have to wait eight years for all the books to be released. Instead of an annual publication, this excellent science fiction series is on a monthly schedule; having started last November and December with Anniversary Day and Blowback respectively, and Search and Recovery to follow in February." -Alternative Worlds II on A Murder of Clones "Anniversary Day is an edge-of-the-seat thriller that will keep you turning pages late into the night and it's also really good science fiction. What's not to like?" -Analog on Anniversary Day "Rusch offers up a well-told mystery with interesting characters and a complex, riveting storyline that includes a healthy dose of suspense, all building toward an ending that may not be what it appears." -RT Book Reviews on Blowback

Thoroughly Kissed

By: Kristine Grayson

Emma awakens to an entirely different world than the one she lived in a thousand years ago, and although she's the real Sleeping Beauty, her life is no fairy tale. After parting ways with her supposed Prince Charming, she's determined to be a normal girl—she hides her magic and swears off kissing strange men. But her gorgeous boss Michael knows there 's something unusual about Emma, and he thinks she's as infuriating as she is beautiful. Now Emma needs to teach Michael a lesson, which means mastering her magic. She knows she's flirting with danger, but after one look at Michael's perfect lips, all she can think is, "What's another thousand years ... ?" Welcome to the fractious fairy tale world of Kristine Grayson, where the bumpy road to happily ever after is paved with surprises ... Praise for Wickedly Charming "Unusual, whimsical, and wickedly clever, this funny romp takes a decidedly offbeat look at fairy tales from the characters' point of view, with delightful, magical results."—Library Journal

Snipers

By: Kristine Kathryn Rusch

The Carnival Sniper-as famous as Jack The Ripper. And like Jack The Ripper, never caught, his identity lost to history. In 1913, the Carnival Sniper terrorized Vienna, murdering the famous and not-so-famous alike. Police Detective Johann Runge never caught the Sniper and his failure defined the rest of his life. In 2005, bestselling crime writer Sofie Branstadter receives permission to use modern forensic investigative techniques on the Sniper's victims. She believes she can figure out the identity of the Sniper, but she needs the help of Runge's great-grandson, classical pianist Anton Runge. Together the two of them plunge into a world of scientific evidence and fantastic clues, all leading to one unbelievable conclusion. "The SF thriller is alive and well, and today's leading practitioner is Kristine Kathryn Rusch." -Analog "A little gem of a thriller. Startling and wonderfully effective." -The Daily Mail (London) on Hitler's Angel "Part police procedural, part political thriller, this clever tale features real life characters interacting with fictional ones." -New York Times bestselling author Jeffrey Deaver on G-Men

Maelstrom: A Diving Universe Novella

By: Kristine Kathryn Rusch

Nedda Ferguson-Lithe lost her father on the Gabriella's final mission. The ship's disappearance remains one of the great mysteries of the sector. But as Nedda interviews the crew's survivors, she finds more questions than answers. No one knows who or what causes the maelstroms that make exploring Nájar Crater on Madreperla so dangerous. But everyone knows that the rumors of the crater's riches prove far too tempting despite the danger. Every time a ship ventures into that crater, a maelstrom drives it out. Or destroys it. Nedda hopes to find out which fate met the Gabriella-and her father. A heart-wrenching addition to Kristine Kathryn Rusch's award-winning Diving Series. Praise for Maelstrom: "Like everything [Kristine Kathryn Rusch] writes, the story is beautifully-told and has a lot of heart.
