Twos are found throughout New Suns 2, in eighteen science fiction, fantasy, and horror stories revealing daring futures, hidden pasts, and present-day worlds filled with unmapped wonders. Many things come in twos: dualities, binaries, halves, and alternates. Like the first New Suns anthology (winner of the World Fantasy, Locus, IGNYTE, and British Fantasy awards), this book liberates writers of many races to tell us tales no one has ever told. New Suns 2 brings you fresh visions of the strange, the unexpected, the shocking-breakthrough stories, stories shining with emerging truths, stories that pierce stale preconceptions with their beauty and bravery. Butler said, “There’s nothing new under the sun, but there are new suns.” Karin Lowachee provides a thought provoking science fiction thriller that applies to the world today.The stunning follow-up to the multiple-award-winning anthology of SFF by people of colour Yuri never had a chance to be a child and when he is finally caught by the authorities, they want him to pimp for their cause. Making love is not a pleasure in this book but a tool that pirates use to disarm the enemy, get information and recruit young blood. There are graphic scenes of violence and training to be a geisha, which includes explicit scenes of same sex and male-female sex.

He was eventually captured by Black Ops and made a deal with them but when you deal with the devil, a heavy price is paid as Yuri learns to his cost. During his years on the ship he learned to be a geisha who spied on the competition, a killer and eventually a captain on his own ship. When he signed up and was brought aboard, he learned he was on a pirate ship and he was Captain Falcone's new protegee. One day a visitor Bo-Sheng arrived on Grace and recruited Yuri to work on a merchant ship. During the evacuation Yuri, his father and his siblings were separated from his mother and sister who were taken to another camp and it looked like the family would never be reunited. The survivors were relocated to the planet Grace, a half terraformed rock that was low on the basic things of life food ,shelter and medicine. When Yuri was four years old, the aliens who were at war with humanity, raided Plymouth Moon killing many colonists, and injuring a lot more.
