A god-touched mage. A headstrong rebel. Magewar to the west. All Garrick wants is to be left alone. But when he and Darien return to Caledena, they find the mage orders have taken control, and that those same orders want Garrick—dead or alive. The orders have begun their war, and Garrick may be the only mage who can keep them from victory. Target of the Orders finds Garrick hunted by Elman, an ambitious Lectodinian mage, and by Sunathri, the beautiful leader of the newly formed independent Torean House. But Garrick has bigger problems than these. To survive, he will have to control the dark magic inside him and suffer the twisted politics of the god-like planewalker who is using Garrick for his own purpose. When Garrick discovers the depths of the planewalker’s designs, he realizes there is more at stake than simply controlling the plane. Can Garrick survive his own magic? Can he survive powers greater than he can conceive? Is he free to choose? "Fast-paced, elegant, and brutal. Impossible to put down." – Amy Sterling Casil Nebula Nominated Author of Female Science Fiction Author

In Finding the Target, Frederick W. Kagan describes the three basic transformations within the U.S. military since Vietnam. First was the move to an all-volunteer force and a new generation of weapons systems in the 1970s. Second was the emergence of stealth technology and precision-guided munitions in the 1980s. Third was the information technology that followed the fall of the Soviet Union and the first Gulf War. This last could have insured the U.S. continuing military preeminence, but this goal was compromised by Clinton's drawing down of our armed forces in the 1990s and Bush's response to 9/11 and the global war on terror. The issue of transformation leads Kagan to Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld's vision of a ''new ''military; the conduct of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars; and the disconnect between grand strategic visions such as the Bush Doctrine's idea of ''preemption ''and the underfunding of military force structures that are supposed to achieve such goals.

"The need to develop a capability to process increasing amounts of intelligence information input by battlefield systems to divisions has led to the establishment of an Army work program to determine user requirements for a Tactical Operations System (TOS). As part of the program, a series of software packages is being evaluated by the Army Research Institute for the Behavioral and Social Sciences for potential inclusion as requirements for a prototype TOS. The first of these packages -- automated Order of Battle (OB) and Target Intelligence (TI) files -- was evaluated in the present study. A series of intelligence tasks was accomplished by two groups, each consisting of 10 subjects qualified as intelligence analysts. Both groups worked with a basic simulated TOS. The experimental group had access to automated OB and TI files; the control group used OB and TI files in manual form. Automation of the files significantly increased both the accuracy and the completeness with which intelligence requirements were accomplished but did not increase the speed of completion of those requirements."--Abstract.
