Full of suspense, adventure, and heart, this hopeful space opera is sure to delight fans of Malka Older, Becky Chambers, and Martha Wells. Kay Wilder despises Ravel Corporation, whose occupation of her home planet left Kay with a useful but debilitating power to hear others’ emotions. Unlike her brother Jasper, an activist who fights corporate injustice, Kay stays as far away from Ravel as possible. Until now. Because Ravel has kidnapped her brother, and to help him, Kay will have to go undercover working for the enemy. Forced to lie about what Ravel did to her home, Kay finds her new job harder and lonelier than she could have imagined, until she discovers an ally who hates working for Ravel as much as she does: a sentient ship who will risk destruction to help their first and only friend. But the risks are far greater than Kay’s and Ship’s safety. To save Jasper, she may have to let another world suffer her home’s fate—and betray everything she and her brother believe in. “It is always a pleasure when the second book lives up to the promise of the first! I've been surprised, delighted, and entertained. I want more.” - Goodreads review Praise for Warped State “Jo Miles’ Warped State is delightful in every way—smart, emotional, funny, inspiring, and brilliantly written.

O’Keefe, author of The Blighted Stars and Velocity Weapon “A rollicking spy story with a wonderful romance woven in… [Warped State] is a terrific ride.” - John Appel, author of Assassin’s Orbit

′Dr. Joel Cooper has been at the very forefront of research on dissonance theory for decades now. In this book, he provides a brilliant and engagingly-written review of the 50-year history of dissonance research and a masterful account of the ensuing developments in the theory. The book will be an outstanding resource for readers familiar with dissonance research and an enlightening introduction for those who are not′ - Professor Russell H. Fazio, Ohio State University Why is it that people who smoke continue to do so knowing how bad it is for them? What drives people to committing adultery even though they inherently believe this is wrong? What′s the outcome of this contradiction in the mind? Cognitive dissonance has been an important and influential theory since Leon Festinger published his classic work in 1957. It is known by every social psychologist, most psychologists of any stripe, and the lay public, making its way into such mainstream publications as The New York Times with increasing frequency and accuracy. Ultimately, dissonance has become one of the most popularly known expressions of social psychological insights, making its way into the literature in consumer, health and economic behavior, and has become a frequently used explanation of political behavior in the popular press and magazines. In marking the 50th anniversary of the theory′s inception, Joel Cooper - arguably the scholar most associated with dissonance research in the past few decades - has presented a beautiful, modern and comprehensive analysis of the state of dissonance theory. This book charts the progress of dissonance theory, assessing its impact not only within our understanding of psychology but in everyday experiences as well. It should be important reading for students in social psychology, either undergraduate or graduate, but equally relevant to a host of other readers who need to understand or share the same passions for appreciating the significance of cognitive dissonance in the human psyche.

Star Trek meets Leverage in a space opera that’s “refreshingly hopeful and heaps of fun” (author Megan E. O’Keefe). Jasper Wilder is an activist, not a spy, but he’ll become one if that’s what it takes to stop Ravel Corporation from reviving the research project that devastated his home planet. His plan is simple enough: Break into the secure facility. Steal the research data. Find a weakness and sabotage the project. But all that goes out the airlock when he meets Havoc, a passionate but politically naive labor organizer trying to reform Ravel from within. Havoc could help Jasper, but instead, he’s fighting for a lost cause. Jasper knows that if he sticks with his own plan, Havoc will likely take the blame—and Ravel doesn’t treat activists kindly. With an elite security operative closing in, and time running out to sabotage the deadly project before it launches, Jasper needs to find a way to team up with Havoc… before his mission hurts the person he’s coming to care about. Full of adventure and suspense, LGBTQ+ characters, found family, a sentient spaceship with anxiety issues, and hijinks galore, Warped State is sure to delight fans of Ann Leckie, Becky Chambers, and Martha Wells.
