[BookStrand Futuristic Sci-Fi Older Hero Romance, HEA] Earthling, Annie Anster, the best alien language interpreter the Xephon-Alliance has, is scheduled on a mission with her old nemesis, the alien commander, Kel-Vyren. He's continually interfered in her life since she's known him and she's terrified he'll throw her off the mission as soon as he finds out she's on it. Her agitation rises as soon as they meet and he's not too pleased to see her either. However a sudden impromptu kiss between them unsettles her further and changes everything. She finally admits to herself she's always either loathed him or worshipped him over the years. When they crash land on an alien planet and are pair-bonded by a nomadic tribe, Annie realizes how much he really means to her. But does such a pair-bonding have any credence in the real world when they return home? And how could he possibly want her when he seems to admire the beautiful and exotic Captain Zamara of Xephon so much? ** A BookStrand Mainstream Romance

[BookStrand Futuristic Sci-Fi Romance, HEA] After a six-year relationship finishes, archaeologist Doctor Sharn Lawrence makes a radical change in direction and embarks on a long trip to the world Xephon. Once there, she discovers she’s not taken as seriously as she’d have hoped and is sent on some minor mission to the Dragon Sands territory at Nielurk. However, things turn more interesting when the crew of the Zhen Khe capture a Tarourke leader in the desert and take him back to the moon base while on their way to join another mission with the Xenxaphan. After meeting the winged alien held in the brig with his Xephon infidel, Sharn finds she’s totally mesmerized by his magnetic aura and mysterious beauty. When she’s offered the opportunity to travel to his previously impenetrable base, she can hardly believe her good luck. But artifacts aren’t the only thing she’s interested in, and the Tarourke leader Rem Salek exhibits unexpected interest in more than her research as well. ** A BookStrand Mainstream Romance

Book Description
The rise of the Internet has made it possible for knowledge to be created and shared in ways that emphasise its character as a common good, rather than as something to be owned. In the world of open source programming, the computer software is distributed under licence, allowing users to change or share the software’s source code - the human readable version of a computer programme. This open and collaborative approach to creating knowledge has produced remarkable results, such as the Linux operating system and the web-based encyclopaedia Wikipedia. In defiance of the conventional wisdom of modern business, open source methods have led the main underlying innovations around the Internet. Other fields have much to learn from open source methods - because they bring principles and working methods which can help to produce better knowledge, goods or services, or make them available on more widely beneficial terms. From the formulation of public policy to more open forms of academic peer review, setting up mutual support groups for people facing similar health problems to collaborative forms of social innovation, the principles of open source promise to radically alter the we approach complex social problems. The future potential of these methods is such that they will soon become commonplace in our lives. Just as it is now impossible to think about getting things done without considering the role of the Internet, so will it soon be impossible to think about how to solve a large social problem without considering the role of open methods. Geoff Mulgan is Director of the Young Foundation and former Head of Policy in the Prime Minister's Office. Tom Steinberg is Director of mySociety and is currently a fellow at the Young Foundation. Omar Salem is a student at Oxford University and an intern at the Young Foundation.
