Cheyenne, Wyoming. A town that's leaping into the 20th century spurs first. Pretty soon Cheyenne will be just as newfangled fancy as any Eastern city-but the folks there still know how to have fun. First the rodeo…and then the hanging. It's the rodeo that Stringer's been sent out to write about. However, before he knows it, he's up to his neck in the West's most notorious murder case. They're fixin' to hang Tom Horn…but something in town smells worse than a stableboy's boots, and Stringer aims to find out what.

The knife missed him by a fraction of an inch! Then he reached under his pillow, grabbed his gun and fired into the darkness. If Alvarez survives, he'll look for one man, an unbeatable bodyguard or the assassin who wants him dead. Either will do.

Shad Williams joined the army to fight for his country, not to fight aliens. But when he's abducted through a portal along with his terminally ill grandfather and kid sister, that's exactly what he finds himself doing. Now, deep below the surface of the planet Ganymede, they find themselves with other equally confused groups of humans drafted into serving under extraterrestrials battling for control over the Reality Engine, an advanced supercomputer capable of producing miraculous resources and technologies.

On Earth, Shad Williams was a soldier in the US Army, protecting and defending his country. Now, he's a champion for Earth itself, engaging in combat against monstrous creatures on a distant planet. Humans are just one of several species taken from their homeworlds to serve powerful aliens. Tasked with obtaining a Reality Engine—a supercomputer capable of producing unimaginable technological creations—for their new overlords, they're forced to wage war against one another.

It's been fifteen years since the tragedy that took not only the life of Ellison Wilson's father but her entire world. Since then, she's done everything she can to separate herself from the thing they both loved: rodeo. But each year, on the anniversary of his death, she makes an exception for her mother and goes back to the place her heart once belonged.

US Army soldier Shad Williams has been drafted to fight in a new kind of war against a cavalcade of monsters on a hostile planet. By a sheer twist of fate, Shad, his younger sister, and their grandfather—along with ten million other unlucky people—were abducted to be pawns in an epic conflict between extraterrestrial species seeking to control the Reality Engine, a powerful computer that can create extraordinary technological wonders. If the humans claim victory over their competitors, they will be granted their freedom to return to Earth.
