NEW ENTRY IN THE ICARUS SAGA FROM NEW YORK TIMES BEST-SELLING AUTHOR TIMOTHY ZAHN For years Gregory Roarke and his Kadolian partner Selene have worked for the ultra-secret Icarus Group, hunting for the mysterious Icari teleportation portals so valued by the Commonwealth. But their job has now...

Following the end of their quest to find the legendary Owen Deathstalker, Lewis and his group of Madness Maze survivors take the new rebel fleet in search of allies. On the Empire’s home world, the exiled King Douglas begins to marshal his own forces amid the outcasts of the Rookery, enlisting a number of unlikely elements to his cause. And the mightiest Deathstalker of them all plunges into the timestream to confront the relentless mad hunger of the being called the Terror.

In the grand finale of the epic Deathstalker saga, Lewis Deathstalker and his beloved Jesamine are compelled to embrace the full might of their extraordinary new powers. The Empire and rebel forces must forge an uneasy alliance to battle a common enemy: the demonic Uber-espers, a conflict that leads to a startling revelation as to their origin. The deposed King Douglas finally confronts the usurper Finn Durandal face-to-face. And Owen Deathstalker’s quest to halt the onslaught of the monstrous Terror reaches its dramatic conclusion.

Lewis Deathstalker has succeeded at the impossible: he's found Owen Deathstalker, presumed dead for the last two hundred years. Owen's return strikes a crippling blow to the Empire as his military joins the rebellion. But Owen himself has a larger mission. He - and according to prophecy, he alone - must travel back in time to stop the steadily advancing Terror before the galaxy is destroyed, leaving his descendant Lewis in command of the growing rebel army. Even as Emperor Finn Durandal's empire is on the brink of annihilation from the Terror, he will do anything to retain power.

Marine war vet Tyson Gage and the Gambit's crew embark on their most ambitious mission yet. The clock's ticking down on his son's condition when a research team working on a cure for the Owari is hit in a military strike. Their lead scientist has been captured. Gage and his team must make the extraction… if they can find him before it's too late. They're not the only ones who want the cure. The mission will take them to uncharted worlds and alien wonders that turn into battlefronts since old friends and enemies have reached a showdown for the same reward.

They once thought dark energy was the ultimate power in the universe. They were mistaken. And now a desperate race is underway to be the first to discover how The Formation helped create life in the universe. But with the power to create life also comes the power to destroy it. This was power even the wise and ancient Aris knew was too great for them to possess. Now imagine what it could do in the hands of a mere mortal...such as Adam Cain.

In a single night, that dream is shattered. A system-wide attack decimates humanity, and the few insubstantial clues they have point straight back into her past and the horrors it holds. Plagued by strange dreams of her sister and a sense of growing danger, Karin and the crew of the Nemina must race desperately across space to find their loved ones - and answers.

Endlich kommt ans Tageslicht, was es mit dem Ganymed-Projekt wirklich auf sich hat. Der perfide Plan der Hinrady nimmt gefährliche Züge an. Als Konteradmiral Langs Flotte und die 21. Irreguläre Legion über der republikanischen Geheimbasis aus dem Hyperraum kommen, steht das System bereits unter Belagerung.
