WHAT'S NEW IN THE STORES===========================================
MARS ATTACKS: MARTIAN DEATHTRAP by Nathan Archer. Hardcover. (SWS)
Mayhem and Martians in a murder mansion--based on the cult-classic trading
cards. At the beginning of the Martian invasion of Earth, a strangely
diverse group of humans (from bikers to accountants to beach bunnies) takes
cover in the sprawling Gelman Mansion. There they are hunted down by a
Martian Death Squad and their uncontrollable giant insects. Each _Mars
Attacks_ novel includes exclusive trading cards.

MARS ATTACKS: WAR DOGS OF THE GOLDEN HORDE by Ray W. Murill. Hardcover.
(SWS)
When the Martian Death Squads reach Mongolia, they meet their match in Qasar
Khan--the heir to Genghis Khan. They try to make him their slave, but when
he turns his Golden Horde in the direction of the Martian fortifications, it
becomes apparent that he could be their greatest foe. This book features
characters from the cult-classic trading cards and comic book series, and
characters that will be included in the summer release of Mars Attacks toys
from Trendmasters. Each _Mars Attacks_ book includes exclusive trading
cards.
--------------------------------------------------------------
THE SECRETS OF STAR WARS: SHADOWS OF THE EMPIRE by Mark Cotta Vaz. Trade.
(SWS)
The complete, profusely illustrated story from behind the scenes at the
Lucasfilm multimedia event, including the secrets of developing a
state-of-the-art Nintendo game. Author Mark Cotta Vaz traces the process of
developing a storyline that simultaneously branches into games, comics, a
bestselling novel, toys, trading cards, and even its own soundtrack.
--------------------------------------------------------------
THE WONDERLAND GAMBIT, Book Two: THE MARCH HARE NETWORK by Jack L. Chalker.
Trade. (SWS)
Book two of three: _The Wonderland Gambit_ continues its romp through the
worlds of virtual reality. Cory Maddox had escaped one world only to find
himself trapped in a new incarnation in a new and subtly different world.
After his work on the infamous Brand Boxes that were the storehouse for
incredible virtual simulations of the real world, Cory was not at all sure
that there was anything virtual about the reality inside the simulations. As
the dividing line between real and unreal world around him blurred, Cory
realized that someone--or something--was controlling not only his perception
of reality, but reality itself.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
POWER PLAY by Anne McCaffrey & Elizabeth Ann Scarborough. Paperback. (SS)
The third and last book of the POWER trilogy, in which the sentient planet
Petaybee finds its voice and speaks for itself... This one is a bit more
humorous than the others, but still has plenty of the romance and drama that
characterized both earlier books, as well as all of McCaffrey's solo
adventures. And again: readers should note that this trilogy is the _only_
true collaboration McCaffrey has done. Rather than merely providing story
idea and supervising the writing, she actually codeveloped and cowrote all
three _Power_ books.

The Star Stone, Book One: THE SHAMAN by Christopher Stasheff. Paperback.
(VCh)
Christopher Stasheff--a favorite with fantasy readers for his _A Wizard in
Rhyme_ series for Del Rey and his _Warlock_ series for Ace--introduces a bold
new hero and an exciting new series, _The Star Stone_. In Book One, THE
SHAMAN, he introduces the Ulin, a race of superbeings so powerful in might
and magic that they seem like gods, and Ohaern, the one man brave enough to
free humanity from their oppression. THE SHAMAN is a rich, full-bodied read
in its own right, and Stasheff's legion of fans will find it particularly
rewarding to watch this popular writer as he grows in power.

THE REIGN OF THE BROWN MAGICIAN by Lawrence Watt-Evans. Paperback. (SWS)
The conclusion to the dramatic _Three Worlds Trilogy_, as the newly
omnipotent Pel Brown deals with the collision between science fiction,
fantasy, and brutal reality. His wife and daughter have been killed by the
Galactic Empire, but now that he's inherited the godlike power of Shadow, Pel
may be able to defy the laws of life and death!
