Station X42 is a complete dump and I’m stranded on it for what is likely to be the rest of my very short existence. Left here by alien abductors who bit off more than they could chew when they took me, I have to scratch a living with the scum of the galaxy. When it looks like I might have finally hacked off the wrong species resulting in my early demise, an enormous alien dragon shifter, Drelix, bursts into my life. All seven foot plus of scales, muscles, fangs and claws. Oh, and a tail, can’t forget the tail.

I was just a boy when the monsters rose on earth, forcing humans to flee to the coastlines and live in cramped, dirty, military-controlled cities. I enlisted as soon as I could to escape. Now, I’ve been in the military for twelve years and have the scars—and missing body parts—to prove it. As a hardened soldier who’s spent his fair share of time out in the Wastes—the dangerous place where monsters roam free—I didn’t think anything could surprise me anymore.

I have sinful thoughts about one of my students. Every night. I picture her in my bed. In my shower. Underneath me. Right up against the chalkboard. I'm especially fond of that one. In my defense, I know her thoughts are as sinful as mine. She's begging me with her beautiful blue eyes. She's daring me to cross the line. No, I'm not a good man. And I'm done pretending to be. I know exactly what I'm going to do to her as soon as she walks into my office hours.

La literatura dominicana ha explotado, y para bien, con una generación diversa y sin ataduras que escribe de adentro hacia afuera y de afuera hacia adentro. Esta selección de Rita Indiana lo demuestra incuestionablemente, al congregar autores diaspóricos y nacionales, y revelar la diversidad creativa de una mirada caribeña, cosmopolita y, a la vez, no convencional. Se trata de una literatura que —como apunta Lorgia García Pena en el prólogo de este libro— corona "la dominicanidad como una vaina que se lleva en el cuerpo más allá de las fronteras nacionales y políticas de la isla".

Durante siglos el mundo entró y salió a través del Caribe, esa región profusa capaz de agitar la Historia y levantarla como huracán. Esa fuerza, hoy más que nunca, se ha consolidado en Puerto Rico, donde abunda una semilla endémica de literatura disruptiva, contemporánea e incisiva.

I just wanted to keep the family farm going, till the land of my ancestors, and do right by my parents' memory. And then the adventurers came.

Caroline Jane (CJ) Ellison has a gift for analysis. When a Wall Street deal goes bad, the choice between prison or the Interstellar Brides Program is a no-brainer. She’ll go.

Warlord Rezzer is contaminated. Weak. The Hive captured him and stole his soul, his very beast. A mate is out of the question when he can’t become what he was born to be, a beast, her mate, her protector.
