Halfway Human by Carolyn Ives Gilman
“The best science fiction novel I’ve read in a long time”—St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Tedla is a 'bland,' an asexual class of people that exist only to serve their fellow beings.
Val is an expert on alien cultures but has never seen a bland before.
They come together after Tedla is found light-years away from its home planet—alone, isolated and suicidal. Val's mission is to help Tedla recover. But the more she learns about the beautiful alien being, the more she discovers about the torment Tedla and its kind suffer on their planet.
Little does the rest of the universe know of the hidden world of the blands, a world that hides shocking secrets and unspeakable crimes.
Halfway Human is a mesmerizing look at an intricately created alien world which is strange and distant, yet hauntingly familiar.

Re:union by Eric Liu
I was born twice, but the first time wasn’t my choice. In fact I don’t remember anything about it. The second time, now that's a different story. It began with a game.
Re:union is a previously unreleased science fiction short story by Eric Liu, author of the science fiction novel "Terrene: the hidden valley." Part disaster story and part romance, Re:union is a thrilling and touching exploration, delving into the very meaning of humanity.
Redshift by N.V. Binder
The first in a series of short scifi adventures, this is the story of J.D. Mitchell, a 21st century engineer thrust into the distant future. Captured as a pirate & rebel by a group of interplanetary enforcers, Mitchell is forced to confess to a long list of crimes. Guiding Mitchell through this journey into the past is "the watson," an implant that records everything Mitchell sees and hears.
Now the adventure that launched a career will be revealed to his interrogators in full Technicolor: his frightening awakening, his first crimes and the dangerous alliances he forged to survive in the black of space. The story begins with "New Year's Day."
