To be fair, I just found these-LOL. Tell's you how focused I get when I'm racing to a deadline ;).
WARRIOR WENCH
RT Rating:
auhor(s): Marie Andreas
Andreas has already been making a name for herself with her
terrific fantasy series The Lost Ancients, but now she kicks off a fast-paced
and high-energy SF series featuring a band of mercenaries led by Starship
Captain Vaslisha Tor Dain. There is plenty of action, thrills and some humor in
her new series, The Asarlaí Wars, as these mercenaries become reluctant sort-of
heroes in the face of treachery and fanaticism. The launch book sets up this
dangerous universe and fills it with amazing characters who are sure to grab
reader’s hearts and minds. This is going to be a very twisty and dangerous
ride!
Captain Vaslisha Tor Dain
only planned to be on vacation for a couple of weeks, so when she returns to
find that her beloved ship The Victorious Dead has been “mistakenly” scrapped
for parts, she is livid and bent both on revenge and getting her ship put back
together. In the meantime they have a job to do, so Vas takes the only ship
available, The Warrior Wench, that used to be a brothel. Vas then rounds up her
second in command, the telepath Deven, and the rest of her crew. However Vas
nearly dies of a poisoning and only Deven’s quick work saves her. Who or what
is after Vas and her crew? Ominously it seems that things are not right in the
Commonwealth of Planets. It may be up to Vas to kick butt and take names! (MARIEANDREAS.COM,

THE EMERALD DRAGON
RT Rating:
Four stars 
Author(s): Marie Andreas
Aficionados of action-packed fantasy laced with a generous dose
of humor should immediately check out the talented Lost Ancients series. The
Emerald Dragon is the third installment in this terrific series which follows
the semi-apocalyptic adventures of archaeologist Taryn St. Giles. Elves
supposedly disappeared from the Four Kingdoms eons ago and Taryn makes a living
mining their ruins. Andreas does a fantastic job building a compelling world
and developing characters that leap off the page! Fantasy fans should not miss
out.
Beccia used to be a quiet little city until Taryn’s talent for
digging placed them at the epicenter of two previous destructive encounters
with ancient relics. Although Taryn and her friends/allies (including her trio
of often-drunken fairy sidekicks) prevented previous doomsdays, they again find
trouble after a series of explosive tremors rock the area. When Alric the elf
disappears while investigating, Taryn starts a hunt to find him. Suddenly she
is up against bloodthirsty relic hunters and nightmarish monsters as they all
hunt for the legendary lost emerald dragon! (MARIE ANDREAS, Apr., 324 pp.,
$14.00)

Thank you Jill M. Smith and RT Book Reviews! These really made me scream, cry, jump around like a mad woman, and generally mean way more to me than you could know.
