Cinnabar's chief spymaster is a mother also - and her son is determined to search for treasure in the midst of a civil war. Who better to hold the boy's hand - and to take the blows directed at him - than Captain Daniel Leary, the Republic of Cinnabar Navy's troubleshooter, and his friend the cyberspy Adele Mundy?

Humanity settled the stars, only to fall into a catastrophic collapse. On one planet, a single artificial intelligence, a computer program known as Center, found a military genius of grit and daring in Raj Whitehall, and the Galactic Republic rose again. But many dark planets remain - planets such as Duisenberg.

During the Cold War, a Soviet scientist has knowledge the Earth will be attacked by aliens, but only the US has the laser-based technology to knock out the alien weaponry. Enter Tom Kelly, American spy, navigator of the US intelligence agency spaghetti, and ruthlessly effective operative when it comes to doing his job.

Features day-after-tomorrow technothriller action with an extremely effective hero you might want to forget, but can't, fending off Soviet aggression and alien attack.

Captain Daniel Leary and his friend, the spy Adele Mundy, have been in the front lines of Cinnabar's struggle against the totalitarian Alliance. Now these galactic superpowers have signed a peace of mutual exhaustion ...but the jackals are moving in.

When the Republic of Cinnabar doesn't have enough battleships to deal with all the crises in its war with the Alliance, it sends the next best thing: Commander Daniel Leary and his friend, the spy Adele Mundy.

The Empress of Earth: Finest passenger liner in the galaxy. Brightest link in the chain that binds the starflung civilization of the 23rd century. Six thousand lives in a single hull, trembling through multiple universes to land on raw, often violent worlds, each with its own history and wonder. The Empress of Earth: Neutral pawn in an interstellar war! When hostile necessity knows no law, Ran Colville and the rest of the complement of the Empress of Earth must bring home their ship and the passengers entrusted to them. From the Captain on his bridge to the Cold Crewmen who work in conditions that differ from Hell only by name, they'll have their work cut out for them this voyage! About David Drake: "[P]rose as cold and hard as the metal alloy of a tank…rivals Crane and Remarque…"-Chicago Sun-Times "Drake couldn't write a bad action scene at gunpoint."-Booklist

While the Republic of Cinnabar is at peace with the Alliance, warriors like Lt. Daniel Leary and Signals Officer Adele Mundy must find other work-like escorting a pair of wealthy nobles on an expedition to the back of beyond!

Daniel Leary is a lieutenant in the Cinnabar Navy. Adele Mundy, whose family was massacred by the Government. Kostroma, which is under threat of invasion. Daniel, Adele, and the crew they gather aren't much to stand in the way of an invasion fleet. They have nothing on their side but each other and heaven help whatever tries to stand in their way!

David Drake chronicles the lives of ordinary Parisians during WWII, drawing on diaries and reminiscences of people who endured these years. From his account emerge the broad rhythms and shifting moods of the city and the contingent lives of resisters, collaborators, occupiers, and victims who, unlike us, could not know how the story would end.

The tyrannical Alliance continues its war against Cinnabar, and Daniel Leary, newly promoted to Commander, and his crew have a new mission: Stop Dunbar's World from falling to an invasion by the planet Pellegrino.

Violence racks Cinnabar. In desperate times, Lt. Daniel Leary must serve under a paranoid officer, and Officer Adele Mundy is drawn into a conspiracy worringly similar to the one that led to her parents' massacre.

In this book, the second in the series, Lt. Daniel Leary commands the Princess Cecile; Signals Officer Adele Mundy has the spy apparatus and skill to crack any database. All they lack are enemies, and fate is about to supply those in abundance!

The Empire of Man has fallen and a new Dark Age is upon the stars. With planets cut off and reduced to subsistence and ignorance, humanity has nearly forgotten its past greatness. But one battle computer has survived the Collapse. He is Center. And Center is determined to find and aid leaders who can return a star-faring republic to the galaxy.

Captain Daniel Leary and his cybrarian friend Adele Mundy think they've earn the quiet life. But there is a rebellion in a distant, but politically critical, star system and high officials are determined to get the lifelong friends involved.

en tid hvor "coaching" er på alles læber - og bruges i stadig flere sammenhænge - er dette en bog om coaching, som er andet og mere end "endnu en praksisbog". Bogen er en grundbog, der sætter coaching ind i et større perspektiv og en bredere sammenhæng.I bogen favnes coachingfeltet med fokus på tre centrale områder, og bogen består af 19 kapitler. De er overordnet inddelt med ni praksisorienterede artikler fordelt i delen "Coaching i praksis - retninger og metoder" og ni mere teoriorienterede artikler i delene "Perspektiver på coaching - refleksioner og forklaringsrammer" samt "Effekter af coaching - dokumentation og vidnesbyrd". Antologien afrundes af efterord, der perspektiverer coachingens muligheder og risici fremover. Bogens målgruppe er deltagere på private og universitære uddannelser i og om coaching, der har brug for bred lærebog. Virksomheder, som bruger coaching og arbejder på at implementere værktøjer, praksis og tænkning i arbejdsfunktionen. Foruden alle med interesse for (og undren over) coaching, der har brug for et overblik, en samfundsmæssig perspektivering og en større forståelse for, hvorfor coaching virker. Bogen er redigeret af Kim Gørtz, uddannet på Københavns Universitet (1997) i filosofi og psykologi. Har siden efteråret 2005 været tilknyttet Learning Lab Denmark og Nordea som erhvervs-Ph.d. Anette Prehn er erhvervssociolog og indehaver af where2next, der arbejder med lederudvikling. Uddannet coach fra ITS, London og ICF-certificeret coach (ACC).
