2176 series by Susan Grant; Kathleen Nance; Liz Maverick; Patti O'Shea - Friday's Feature

Legend of Banzai Maguire ~ Day of Fire ~ Shadow Runners ~ Power of Two ~ Scarlet Empress
Susan Grant; Kathleen Nance; Liz Maverick; Patti O'Shea 

In the 21st and 22nd Centuries, the United States changed and grew. Now the United Colonies of Earth dominate the globe. But a mysterious voice is broadcasting treason, inciting revolution and referring to the "ideals of 1776" - and to an enigmatic figure named Banzai Maguire. 





THE LEGEND OF BANZAI MAGUIRE - The year: 2006. The mission: routine. Or so U. S. A. F. Pilot Bree "Banzai" Maguire thinks. Then she's shot down over enemy airspace, captured and put in bio-stasis. When she wakes, everything's changed. It's one hundred and seventy years later. 2176: the world is in crisis, and Banzai's a hotly contested prize. Once, her job was to protect democracy; now a mysterious voice claims she must bring it back.
DAY OF FIRE - Canada: For over a century it's been closed off, quarantined. Now, in 2176, its people thrive. The country still needs peacekeepers, though - and the Mounties are there. "Be It All. Do It All." Those are the high-tech police force's twin mottos. They're Day Daniels's mottos, too.
THE SHADOW RUNNERS - Newgate, Australia: In the 22nd century, history repeats itself. Part penal colony, part dumping ground for toxic waste, the land is controlled by "the Parliament," a gang of dissipated self-styled aristocrats. To survive here, you have to know the tricks. Like Jenny Red. She's been Down and made it out to tell the tale.
THE POWER OF TWO - To find Banzai, the UCE assigns Cai. She's the "anchor," the techie half of a Quandem: a pair of elite operatives intended for just such covert action. Neural implants allow her to sit back in a control chair and feed information to her partner, the dark-souled Jacob Tucker.
THE SCARLET EMPRESS - Shot down over Korea, modern-day U. S. A. F. Fighter pilot Cameron "Scarlet" Tucker is put in bio-stasis. She wakes 170 years later to find her best friend survived, too - the "legendary" Banzai Maguire is being held for treason in the country that was once her beloved United States.
