Book Description
It's Howling Time in Known Space again! Back to the frontlines of the top selling space war in all of science fiction. The first colonists from Earth named the planet Wunderland. Generations later, the felinoid alien invaders called Kzin came and turned it into a hell for humans. Touched on in other accounts of the Man-Kzin wars, here for the first time is the decades-long saga of Wunderland: how the Wunderlanders first learned of the Kzin attacks on Earth by slower-than-light communications, barely in time to prepare to fight back. How the valiant human defenders turned to guerilla warfare in the Wunderland jungles and caves after the feline warrior race had destroyed or seized the cities. How, after the war ended in an ignominous defeat for the Kzin, some humans and Kzin worked for good will between the two species-their work complicated by humans wanting revenge and Kzin who still saw humans as a somewhat annoying food source. And how a human-Kzin team was sent to investigate a mysterious asteroid and found a threat not only to both species, but to the entire galaxy. The humans wanted to destroy it, but the Kzin wanted to exploit it, and the only hope was a Kzin telepath raised by humans from a cub. Which side would he choose, monkey or warcat?

Book Description
H’char’n, a downed kzin hero, crashes on Earth during a Kamikaze-like attack and flees across the U.S., through the Appalachians, toward Niagara Falls. Pursued by an angry DHS agent who wants to kill this representative of a murderous species, and accompanied by a sensitive young woman who realizes the kzin have some redeeming qualities, it’s a race against time as the noose tightens. Meanwhile, the duplicitous and greedy kzin Silver (last seen in the Man-Kzin series novel Treasure Planet) is hustling to sell a nanotechnological “fountain of youth” to gullible humans. If H’char’n cannot escape and deal with Silver as only a Kzin hero is able, it may mean a terrible escalation of the conflict between the kzin and humans that has already cost both proud species far too much. A stand-alone novel by Man-Kzin anthology stalwarts Hal Colebatch and Jessica Q. Fox set in the hugely popular Man-Kzin War series created by multiple New York Times best-selling author Larry Niven.

GIVE PEACE A CHANCE A Kzin's instinctively combative responses make for poor diplomatic relations between species. But now that their "first you scream and then you leap" approach to interstellar relations have led to three straight losses to the hairless hominidae of Sol III, there has begun to arise in Kzinti consciousness the faintest glimmering that there may be a Better Way. And in the resulting calm between wars, humans and Kzin are beginning to collaborate. Now the Universe really has something to worry about.

Book Description
THOSE KZIN DON'T KNOW WHEN THEY'RE LICKED (AND MAYBE THEY AREN'T . . . .) It was so unfair! Here the Kzin were, warcats supreme, bringing the galaxy piece by piece under feline dominion, carving out satrapies for the home planet like the lords of creation that they were¾and then they ran into those pesky humans. Mere apes! Contemptible salad-eaters! Taking pride in sneaking up on a leaf! Obviously fit only to be lunch, not even a speed bump in the Kzinti's imperial career. Hardly worth screaming-and-leaping about. But when the feline Kzin moved in to take over the monkey-occupied worlds¾they got clobbered. The humans, with their underhanded monkey cunning, turned communications equipment and space drives into weapons that cut the dauntless Heroes into ribbons. When the humans gained a faster-than-light drive, it `vas all over but the, uh, howling. The Kzin had lost their first war ever in centuries of conquest. Still, you can't keep a good warcat down, and the Kzin have by no means given up. New weapons, new strategies, and new leaders¾the humans had better keep their powder dry. Once again, it's howling time in Known Space! At the publisher's request, this title is sold without DRM (Digital Rights Management).
