Morgan Selwood

She's a Supertech, bioengineered from birth, fresh out of the Academy and tasked with designing a control system for an experimental fighter. Morgan's up for the challenge but there's more to the job than meets the eye. The Fleet invested in her education but did they train her for ... this? This short story contains some coarse language Ensign Morgan Selwood was almost too good at her job and far too casual about Fleet rules and regulations. Tasked with designing a control system for an untested attack fighter seemed like a dream come true and a real career booster. But the specs and modules tell only part of the story-what Morgan discovers can put not just her career, but lives at risk.

Extended edition with new material. Somewhere out in space, humanity's past is about to catch up with its future. When Morgan Selwood's spaceship is stranded in unknown space she is relieved to be rescued by humanoid aliens. But her unusual appearance and her extraordinary technical abilities mean that everybody wants a piece of her. Who's it to be? Autocratic Admiral Ravindra, who press-gangs her to help against a shadowy threat from the stars, or the freedom fighters who think she's a legend reincarnated, returned to help them throw off the yoke of oppression? Morgan doesn't much care which it is until the uprising and the atrocities start. While civil war rages across the planet the shadowy threat from the stars emerges as an implacable killer bent on destroying all intelligent life. Morgan will need every bit of her superhuman, bio-engineered intelligence to save the man she has come to love and his people from annihilation. And spare a little to save herself.

When you delve into ancient history you never know what strange forces you might unleash. When Morgan Selwood and Admiral Ashkar Ravindra travel to Morgan's Human Coalition to learn more about the origin of Ravindra's people, their relationship is soon sorely tested. Morgan is amongst her own people and Ravindra is overprotective and insecure, afraid of losing her. But not everyone is keen to welcome Morgan home, not when they'd gone to all that trouble to get rid of her in the first place. Soon Morgan and Ravindra have a rogue Supertech on their trail with only one goal - kill Selwood. Together, Morgan and Ravindra follow a tenuous trail back into humanity's past, to the time historians call the Conflagration. But what begins as an innocent archaeological investigation escalates into a deadly peril for both humans and Manesai when Morgan and Ravindra are thrust into the middle of an unexpected conflict. And that rogue Supertech's still out there, itching for revenge.

Follow your dreams. You never know where they might take you. Jirra's on the run, Siena's rescuing her lover, Toreni wants Master Chef status and Chet wants her reputation back. Four women, four goals, and one very small ship. Add a fleet request to free a rebel, the promise of little to no help and a caste-defined society simmering with discontent on the edge of explosion. Now, on their own, they're staging an escape from a backwater prison planet and navigating the murky terrain of dreams forbidden by the rigid caste system underpinning their culture. Success demands more than team work. They'll have to jettison their own prejudices and forge relationships free of the rules and caste lines. There's more than just lives at stake. There's dreams and a possible tomorrow more fragile than gossamer.

The Fleet has won a major victory and Admiral Ravindra is celebrating with his officers. Morgan gets a rare invite for a girls' night out. Dinner, a little dancing, a little jealous pining... And a whole lot of trouble when Ravindra discovers his lady is out 'n about... without protection. What started as an innocent night on the town turns into something very, very different.

Life's good for 18-year-old Ashkar Ravindra. School's over, and he's been accepted into the Fleet Academy. There's time for one last trip up into the mountains in the brand new flitter his father gave him as a graduation present, before his real life, the one he's been groomed for from the day he was born, begins in earnest. Up in the mountains not everyone is pleased to see the privileged admiral's son. Jealousy and ulterior motives turn the pleasant hunting trip into an ordeal. Lives are a stake. If Ashkar makes the wrong decision, he will be the first to die.

All three Morgan's Misfits adventures in one volume. Morgan's Misfits - Jirra, a Hasta ex-Fleet engineer who's in love with the wrong man, Chet, a Mirka who was a detective and has been exiled, and Toreni, an elite Shuba trooper who'd rather be a chef. It's an unlikely alliance of women who don't quite fit into the rigid caste system of their society. Working with Morgan Selwood, they embark on dangerous adventures to help Fleet in its fight against enemies of the Union. Success demands more than team work. They'll have to jettison their own prejudices and forge relationships free of the rules and caste lines that dominate ordinary social mores.
