Alien Peacelords: The Coriolis Effect - E-book - ePub

Why have a midlife crisis on Earth when you can have one among the stars? After her third post-release layoff from a major gaming studio, Coriolis Washington is ready to try something new. Like, going-to-another-world new. And whatever her friend's lurid romance novels might say, Cori knows perfectly well that the alien world Fali-tan needs programmers to write code - not sexy women to fill out harems. Despite being far more technologically advanced than Earth in most respects, Fali-tan's computers were no better than punch-card-driven mainframes, and had not improved in generations until the discovery of their long-lost cousins on Earth.
Now, Fali-tan's population is eager to achieve their own Information Age, and technology companies bend over backwards to hire skilled Earth developers. Even some of Fali-tan's peacelords, leaders of their nations, will go to great lengths to attract people like Coriolis to their country. . and the shocking, overwhelming physical attractiveness of humans is the least of Coriolis's charms to rival peacelords and ex-lovers Dhavoran and Tyvalon.
