Resumen del Editor
And Laura provided the cover for free so it's her gift to you all as well.
Gorg Huff
For those who don't know the history. Paula and I created the WarSpell Multiverse several years ago. The basic premise is that on an unspecified December 30th an event occurred. We know what the event was but we've never put it in a book I don't think. The results of that event were first that suddenly the magic of a fictional RPG started working in the "real" world.
In this case RPG means "Role Playing Game" not "Rocket Propelled Grenade"
Anyway. The second result was that, at the same time, players of that RPG and any others that had magic similar enough to work got the memories and abilities of one of the players they'd played. Mostly those memories integrated into the person quite well. This came to be called the Merge. Games that are similar enough include Runequest, Dungeons and Dragons GURPS, and several others. This was called the Merge and it left the earth with around ten million people who suddenly had two sets of memories and whole sets of abilities that most people didn't have. Some of those folks could do magic and some brought their gods with them. As you can imagine not everyone reacted well to this.
The third result was that the Merge worked both ways. When the players on earth got the memories and abilities of the characters they played, the characters got the memories and abilities of the people who played them.
That meant that on millions of game worlds there were one two or a few people who suddenly had memories and abilities of people from earth. That might seem minor until you recall that we tend to know a lot of stuff and live in a world full of ideas that they don't have on game worlds. Everything from sterilizing wounds to making gunpowder. From basic economic theory to the bill of rights. Equality before the law to the shape of an air foil.
On some of those worlds the truths that we hold to be Self evident will be more disruptive than all the fire balls of all the newly made wizards on earth.
✽✽✽
This is a story in that multiverse it takes place on earth the merge world and we are giving it to our readers as a Saturnalia present, or Hanukkah present or Christmas present or whatever you happen to celebrate present.

Historia
When the Merge happened, the world as people knew it and the world of the WarSpell role playing game got completely tangled up. That opened millions of fantasy worlds to explore, sure—but it didn't do anything for space exploration. There was no spell to take someone to the Moon or Mars in the rule books. And to make things worse, early attempts showed that magic worked differently in space than on the surface of the earth. Disastrously different, as a rule. Still, if someone can figure out how to do it right, the magic of WarSpell has the potential to change space exploration from ...

Historia
Welcome to the world, Metis, titan of wisdom and sagacity. Actually, you’re a new built artificial brain, part of a dispersed architecture neural net system designed to run a wing-ship. A jump capable starship operating in the Pamplona Sector. But the Pamplona Sector is caught up in a revolution. The Battered Birdie, the ship you’re installed in, is a pirate ship and its captain is a crook and casual killer. That’s the situation Metis finds herself in. Doctor Schmitz did build a moral center into her, but like all A.I.s, she’s designed to serve, not to rule. That means taking orders...

Historia
Ufa is going crazy. The new capital of the legitimate government of Russia, once a trading post in the far east, is now a fast-growing boom town. Into this maelstrom come peddlers and exotic dancers, criminals and craftsmen, nobles and assassins. Crime is running rampant and the city guards that passes for policemen don't have a clue how to handle it—and wouldn’t know a clue if they stumbled right over it. They can manage to walk a beat, at least in broad daylight. But solve a crime? Not a chance. And Czar Michael Romanov and his officials aren’t any help, since they’re pre-occupied...

Historia
A WarSpell novel, in a world where war ships are just starting to make the change from ballistas to cannon that use a magically created gunpowder. Tensy Teasdale is forced by financial hardship to give up her studies of magic and join the Kingdom Navy as a midshipman. It's a hard life for her. While women have been serving in the Navy for decades, not everyone accepts them. It's even harder if you're a studious introvert who incurs the ire of a brute of a senior Midshipman who's just failed his Lieutenant’s test again. And that's just the first of Miss Midshipman Teasdale's misadventures....

Historia
Vasilii and Miroslava are back at work again. Czar Mikhail wants a rail line built from Ufa, the capital of his United Sovereign States of Russia, to the capital of the USSR’s newest addition, the Khazak Khanate. For that he needs a steam engineer and diplomat—Vasilii’s jobs—as well as a top surveyor. Unfortunately, the surveyor is an arrogant snob who gets himself murdered—and now the czar needs a detective as well. Fortunately, Vasilii’s paramour Miroslava came with him, so she’s there to take on the case. She and Vasilii need to solve the murder quickly without blowing up ...
