Cat Karina

release date: Apr 01, 2014
Cat Karina
On an earth inhabited by a cat-like race of women, one felina stands alone—from the award-winning author. "His tales have heart" (Strange Horizons). Few true humans remain on the future Earth, where caimen, shrugleggers, and felinas dominate. The peoples are descendents of crocodiles, alien races, and jaguars, and they are much different than the humans--they are products of genetic experiments, created to perform specific functions. Some work in the swampy lands, others are the strong burden-bearers, but none are as beautiful as the felines-- not even the humans. And no one is worthy enough to win over the most attractive felina, Karina. She is a rare beauty of great prowess, with a tempting sculpted physique that could lure anyone to her.

Eine neue Flut Arkadia ist eine paradiesische Wasserwelt, umkreist von sechs Monden. Schon vor Jahrzehnten siedelten sich Menschen dort an, doch alle 52 Jahre tritt eine Konstellation ein, bei der alle Monde in einer Reihe stehen und eine Springflut auslösen. Die Siedler verhielten sich dabei merkwürdig: einige von ihnen gingen wie willenlose Marionetten ins Wasser, um sich von Haien zerfleischen zu lassen. Wissenschaftler fanden heraus, dass sich die winzigen Meeresbewohner in der Flut zu einer Art kollektiver Intelligenz zusammenschließen, die starke PSI-Impulse aussendet. Die Siedler bekommen es mit der Angst zu tun und wollen Arkadia verlassen, doch die Hetherington-Organisation bietet ihnen Hilfe an: Mittels der Brontomeks, gewaltigen Maschinen, soll Arkadia sicher gemacht werden – doch welchen Preis das erfordert, erfahren die Siedler erst, als es schon fast zu spät ist ...
