    Coalescent by
    Stephen Baxter. Now, joined by his boyhood friend Peter McLachlan, who arrives in Rome with a
    dark secret of his own, George uncovers evidence suggesting that the women of the Order have
    embarked on a divergent evolutionary path. But they are not just a new kind of human. They are a
    better kind, genetically superior, equipped with all the tools necessary to render homo sapiens as
    extinct as the Neanderthals. And, chillingly, George and Peter soon have reason to fear that this
    colony is preparing to leave its overcrowded underground nest. . . .  For more information about

    make your mark in a new sector of space, as the Imperium of Man expands into the frontiers of
    the Lupus Cluster. While the Empire's Lupus Crusade attempts to subjugate the renegade
    humans and aliens of the Lupus Commonwealth, your explorers will attempt to wrest a profit from
    this new region of space, and trump your rivals at the Great Game of Houses. Exciting battles in
    space, brawls on different planets throughout the region, and opportunities to acquire wealth
    beyond the dreams of avarice await you in the tumultuous war zone of the Lupus Cluster
    Crusade. The one question you have to ask yourself is, "Are we the wolves in the fold, or merely
    the sheep?" For more information about the location visit:
