The unimaginable has happened. Sylvas has taken in War, Blood, and Strife and bound it to his heart. A feat that has seen the Empyrean Alliance plucking him from the comforts of the Ardent and pulling back the veil that once masked everything. Now, for the first time ever, Sylvas can see his place in the galaxy, standing between the threats that seek to unmake it.

The Last Horizon has already sown new legends across the galaxy, tales of monsters defeated and worlds saved. For better and for worse, their reputation is spreading. Their enemies have taken notice. On Karosha, the Perfected gather fleets crewed by inhumanly flawless soldiers. In the Galactic Union, the secretive organization known as Solstice pulls strings in the shadows. And in the depths of Dark Space, after years of silence, the ravenous D’Niss begin to stir.

Solstice, the secret organization running the Galactic Union, has made an enemy of The Last Horizon. Soon, they will regret it. Varic and Omega have a plan to infiltrate and destroy Solstice’s leaders, removing another threat to the galaxy. Compared to the apocalyptic monsters the crew has faced in the past, this opponent should be simple.

Sylvas Vail is a big fish in a small pond, the most powerful mage on his planet. But when the doors to the cosmos come crashing open and all the untold wonders and terrors of the universe come pouring in, he is left with only two options: Ascend or die.

Jetzt bin ich ganz offiziell ein Aszendent, der Anführer eines Kampf-Speers und der erste Pilot der Siedlung. Dieses Geheimnis hat mir die uralte Stimme enthüllt, die so lange meinen Körper mit mir geteilt hat. In Einigkeit gibt es noch andere, die sind wie ich. Man nennt sie die Wahren. Vielleicht können sie meine Fragen beantworten.

The Rebel Alliance’s elite strike force must join together with Han Solo to take down their old foe, the warlord Zsinj. Wraith Squadron: they are the Rebel Alliance’s ultimate strike force. Sleek, swift, and deadly, they are the first in battle, the last line of defense. Now they must find...

Die Versammlung… So nennt das neurolinguistische System das Zusammentreffen der Vertreter am geheiligten Ort, am Fuß des strahlenden Ygg-Baums. Dabei werden neue Aszendenten ernannt, Streitigkeiten werden beigelegt, Bündnisse werden geschlossen, und Kriege werden erklärt.

Der Krieg gegen den Dunklen Bruch wurde für beendet erklärt, doch die Probleme der Menschheit sind noch lange nicht gelöst. Sie haben gerade mit dem Bau eines der zwölf Planetenschildgeneratoren begonnen, die die Erde zur Abwehr eines Angriffs benötigt. Sollen sie die magokratische Parallelwelt um Hilfe bitten? Das Einzige, worauf er sich wirklich verlassen kann, sind seine Stärke und seine persönliche Fraktion, die Reliktiker. Könnten die Technologien alter, längst untergegangener Rassen die Menschheit stark genug machen, um eine Invasion abzuwenden, bevor es zu spät ist?

Aller Wahrscheinlichkeit zum Trotz hatte er überlebt. Aber es war noch nicht vorbei, egal was irgendjemand behauptete - auch nicht seine ehemaligen Verbündeten. Die tödliche, schattenhafte Organisation, mit der er es zu tun hatte, war noch nicht vollständig besiegt. Sie tat alles in ihrer Macht Stehende, um ihren bösen Plan auszuführen und alles auszuschalten, was ihr im Weg stand. Doch Clem Denisov, der unverbesserliche Racheengel, hatte nicht vor, sich das gefallen zu lassen.

The Val'ayash invasion of Earth had been defeated. New deals were reached with both the Qash'vo'tar and the Zhal Confederation. But Earth has one advantage that no one in their universe knows about. The portal to Ethorria.

Für die kriminelle Vereinigung, die als ‚mysteriöse Killer' bekannt ist, sieht es aus wie der Anfang vom Ende. Aber es gibt einen Mann, der sich ihnen in den Weg stellt, und er ist unaufhaltsam. Clem Denisov, der letzte der Aufgetauten. Clem ist nicht bereit, noch einmal zu sterben. Nichts kann ihn aufhalten, nicht einmal die besten Attentäter, die bei dem Versuch ihr Ende finden.

Und darin lag Ewigkeit. Dort, im „Jenseits", tauchten die ausgewählten Aszendenten nach ihrem Tod wieder auf und erwarben Unsterblichkeit. Legenden zufolge hatten sich vor drei galaktischen Wendungen die Kel dorthin zurückgezogen, die Schöpfer der Dyson-Sphäre, um zu allmächtigen, unsterblichen Göttern zu werden. Ich muss herausfinden, wer recht hat, und welche Geheimnisse Ewigkeit verbirgt.

When an outing in the famous Zoned Park of Wendis turns into a dangerous game designed by unknown enemies, Nia and Martan become allies in danger and adversaries in love.

Like poop on your shoe, bad luck had a knack for sticking Charlie wherever he went. And it sure did stink. Wormholes to a distant galaxy? Done it. Alien slavery? Yup. Forced gladiatorial combat? That too. Space pirate and eventual rebel leader? Check. Rising to the pinnacle of power as Dragon King? Uh-huh. Charlie, it seemed, had seen and survived it all, and at long last it looked like he’d finally earned himself a little peace and quiet. That is until a whole new threat reared its ugly head.

Thy legend was born in the shadow of the beast. Marked with their sign. All dust in the wind. Thy strength was forged in the shadow of the beast. Strength within. Echoes without. Loathe greatest of all when beasts’ shadows are gone. No longer in shadow, the shadow in thee. Breaker of stars, devourer of gods. Haunted triumphs none would crave.

Two years ago, Lieutenant Commander Roslyn Chambers stood witness to the surrender of the last remnants of the Republic. Fueled by atrocity against Mage and mundane alike, the secessionists who waged war against the Protectorate of Mars are finally defeated. Now, a special commission from the Mage-Queen of Mars takes Roslyn deep into the former Republic to hunt the architects of that atrocity. Mages who betrayed their own, the creators of Project Prometheus must be brought to justice. But hidden from even the Republic, Prometheus has woven magic and technology together once more.

Niemand hat sie je ernst genommen. Sie waren die Aufgetauten. Entbehrlich, Wegwerfware. Doch wie das Schicksal so spielte, hatten sie ihre ‚Eigentümer‘ überlebt. Einige machten sich auf, um die unwirtliche Zukunft zu meistern, in der sie sich befanden. Einer nach dem anderen wagte sich hinaus und verschwand. Andere versteckten sich, um nicht gefasst zu werden, was das Unvermeidliche nur hinauszögerte.

Fleeing the Solar System after an attack by North America, the three Home habitats now have to seek their own fortunes. Heather, Sovereign of Central on the Moon, saved them, but now has to make certain the USNA can never threaten them again. What was a tentative research partnership with the Red Tree Clan of Derfhome becomes a full alliance of equals. Lee finds she has to grasp authority and act for the Red Tree Mothers and herself to repossess the planet Providence she and Gordon discovered, while the Claims Commission on Earth has collapsed without the leadership of North America.

The Culling is over, and against all odds, Sylvas stands victorious. But even so, his training isn’t over. In fact, it’s barely even begun. Before he can do anything more than catch his breath, he and all the other cadets are whisked off planet for their next trial. Onslaught Citadel. And this time, dying won’t be enough to save them.
