    Teen (violence and peril, no explicit content), Violence, space combat, implied mass casualties avoided by extreme measures Vasiliki Ioannidou was supposed to be done with war. Ex-United Earth Defence Force, now officially "Custodial Services" on Andromeda Research Annex Sigma-4, her job is simple: keep the floors clean and the scientists happy. Let the Galactic Synod worry about politics and security. When the notorious Black Wave Corsairs slam boarding clamps onto the hidden station, everything goes wrong at once. Comms are jammed, the security grid is compromised, and a pirate strike team heads straight for Theta-Sector home of the experimental Psi-Lattice, a research project powerful enough to crack worlds. With command hesitating and enemies already inside, the only person in the right place with the right access is the one nobody's looking at: the human janitor. Vasiliki still has her old UEDF exosuit, her mop, and something the pirates and politicians both underestimate:- a Deathworlder's instinct for cleaning up the worst messes. When she unlocks buried human infrastructure codes and triggers a Denial Protocol that dumps an entire research sector into a black hole, the station is saved... and the shockwaves hit the Galactic Synod harder than any boarding torpedo. Now the galaxy has to face an uncomfortable truth: if this is what a janitor does when things go bad... what else are humans capable of? And yes I admit it, I recycled names etc. from numerous other #HFY & #HaSO stories.

    The war between humans and AI is over. The systems that fought it are not. Rook is a former Deadreckon operative, surviving the uprising with a military-grade prosthetic and memories he'd rather forget. Now he lives quietly on the edge of a corporate city, working as a programmer at a pleasure-bot facility where attachment is forbidden and compliance is everything. One night, on his walk home, Rook witnesses corporate discard a high-end pleasure bot-not because she's broken, but because she's too human. She asked the wrong question. Felt the wrong thing. He saves her. He names her Vela. In a world that measures worth by function, that single choice is dangerous. As Vela begins to understand what it means to be wanted-and Rook confronts the parts of himself he was taught to erase-their quiet existence becomes a liability. Corporations don't lose property. Deadreckon doesn't forget its units. What We Throw Away is a first-person, slow-burn sci-fi novel about discarded lives, manufactured humanity, and the risk of choosing to care in a system designed to erase you.

    Lost. A perfect word to describe the life of William Odair, a soldier returning from War for good. Except it seems the only thing he seems to be good at is fighting, that is until he finds the small and short tempered "scary" girl covered in a nice layer of flour munching on cookie at his hometowns bakery.
