Warlock
Rare Books
The world grows colder with each passing year, the longer winters and ever-deepening snows awaking ancient fears within the Dengan Packstead, fears of invasion by armed and desperate nomads, attack by the witchlike and mysterious Silth, able to kill with their minds alone, and of the Grauken, that desperate time when intellect gives way to buried cannibalistic instinct, when meth feeds upon meth. For Marika, a young pup of the Packstead, loyal to pack and family, times are dark indeed, for against these foes, the Packstead cannot prevail. But awakening within Marika is a power unmatched in all the world, a legendary power that may not just save her world, but allow her to grasp the stars themselves.

Passage at arms
Rare Books
The ongoing war between Humanity and the Ulat is a battle of attrition that humanity is unfortunately losing.

Passage at Arms tells the intimate, detailed and harrowing story of a climber crew and its captain during a critical juncture of the war. Cook combines speculative technology with a canny and realistic portrait of men at war and the stresses they face in combat. Passage at Arms is one of the classic novels of military science fiction.

The trail of sixty snows : poem
Manuscripts
Typescript of two poems, "The Trail of Sixty Snows," by Cass Hite and "The Death of Hoskinini," by Cy Warman. "The Trail of Sixty Snows" is an autobiographical poem written by Hite on his 60th birthday. It recalls his childhood in "the old prairie State" (Illinois), the departure of his father for the California gold mines, and Hite's decision to travel westward in the 1860s, gold prospecting in Idaho, Arizona, Mexico, and Utah, where he searched for a Navajo mine he calls "El Mino Peso La-ki." The poem is largely in the third person, with Hite referring to himself by his Indian name of Hosteen Pish-la-ki. The second poem, "The Death of Hoskinini," was written by Warman upon the death of Navajo chief Hoskinini. The beginning of this poem describes the roaming spirit of Hoskinini, while the final pages are a continuation of "The Trail of Sixty Snows" and contain more biographical information about Hite, including a reference to the murder charges against him.
