'Tanjiri is not for you. You are not ready to encounter what exists there.' So Lezuri spoke in warning, long ago. Urban still possesses the strange gift-the impossible puzzle-Lezuri gave him that day. A needle, ultra-thin and twelve centimeters long, with a silvery surface that slices light into rainbow glints. All Lezuri's knowledge lies locked within that needle. Urban has only to discover the trick of opening it, to gain that knowledge for himself-but the needle remains an enigma. Now Dragon and its fleet of outriders has reached the periphery of Tanjiri system. The belt of ruins lies ahead: a chaos of remnant megastructures from a fallen civilization. Farther in, an Earthlike world orbits in the company of a living moon created less than 4,000 years ago. An entity-one greater even than Lezuri-must have made that moon. And yet the system is silent. No one, nothing, has answered Dragon's hails. Urban is sure that when the fleet enters Tanjiri system, he will meet this maker of worlds-with the lives of everyone he loves at stake. Better, safer, to encounter this entity from a position of strength, armed with all the knowledge and power contained within the needle. So he believes.

Prüfungen - The Red 2 (Ungekürzt)

Lieutenant James Shelley und seine Einheit von Soldaten der US-Army befanden sich auf einem Kreuzzug für die Gerechtigkeit, als sie die unautorisierte Mission Erstes Licht ausführten. Sie kehrten nach Amerika zurück, um sich vor einem Kriegsgericht zu verantworten - entschlossen, die Korruption in der Befehlskette aufzudecken, die sie zu ihren Taten gezwungen hat. Aber in einem Land, das noch immer vom nuklearen Terrorismus des Koma-Tags gezeichnet ist, ist der Gerichtssaal nur eines von vielen Schlachtfeldern. Eine neue Welle der Gewalt wird ausgelöst, als die Öffentlichkeit Gerüchte über die unglaubliche, skrupellose KI 'Red' hört - und Shelley steckt wieder einmal mittendrin. Von seinen Feinden herausgefordert und seinen Idealen getrieben, fühlt sich Shelley verpflichtet, etwas zu tun ...

Silver

A Lost Ship-A New World Urban is no longer master of the fearsome starship Dragon. Driven out by the hostile, godlike entity, Lezuri, he has taken refuge aboard the most distant vessel in his outrider fleet. Though Lezuri remains formidable, he is a broken god, commanding only a fragment of the knowledge that once was his. He is desperate to return home to the ring-shaped artificial world he created at the height of his power, where he can recover the memory of forgotten technologies. Urban is desperate to stop him. He races to reach the ring-shaped world first, only to find himself stranded in a remote desert, imperiled by a strange flood of glowing 'silver' that rises in the night like fog-a lethal fog that randomly rewrites the austere, Earthlike landscape. He has only a little time to decipher the mystery of the silver and to master its secrets. Lezuri is coming-and Urban must level up before he can hope to vanquish the broken god.

Edges

From the Edge of Apocalypse: Deception Well is a world on the edge, home to an isolated remnant surviving at the farthest reach of human expansion. All across the frontier, other worlds have succumbed to the relentless attacks of robotic alien warships, while hundreds of light years away, the core of human civilization-those star systems closest to Earth, known as the Hallowed Vasties-have all fallen to ruins. Powerful telescopes can see only dust and debris where once there were orbital mega-structures so huge they eclipsed the light of their parent stars No one knows for sure what caused the Hallowed Vasties to fail, but a hardened adventurer named Urban intends to find out. He has the resources to do it. He commands a captive alien starship fully capable of facing the dangers that lie beyond Deception Well. With a ship's company of explorers and scientists, Urban is embarking on a voyage of re-discovery. They will be the first in centuries to confront the hazards of an inverted frontier as they venture back along the path of human migration. Their goal: to unravel the mystery of the Hallowed Vasties and to discover what monstrous life might have grown up among the ruins.

Funkstille - The Red 3 (ungekürzt)

Diejenigen, die ihm am nächsten stehen, halten ihn für tot. Und der ehemalige Army Lieutenant James Shelley hat nicht vor, etwas daran zu ändern. Dennoch wird er von einer Organisation für verdeckte Operationen rekrutiert, die sich ganz dem Red, einer hochentwickelten künstlichen Intelligenz, verschrieben hat und mit dessen Hilfe die Welt vor Bedrohungen schützen will. Shelley ist davon überzeugt, dass er die notwendige Vorsicht gelernt hat, wenn es um die Arbeit mit der geheimnisvollen künstlichen Intelligenz geht - bis Reds immer unberechenbareres Verhalten aus Versehen einen Krieg entfacht und Shelley auf Kollisionskurs mit seinem alten Leben schickt.

Morgengrauen - The Red 1 (Ungekürzt)

In einem ländlichen Gebiet der afrikanischen Sahelzone befehligt Lieutenant James Shelley eine hochtechnisierte Einheit von Soldaten. Jede Nacht jagen sie während grauenvoller Patrouillen Aufständische und befolgen dabei drei simple Ziele: Beschützt Zivilisten, tötet den Feind und bleibt am Leben. Denn in einem von der Verteidigungsindustrie inszenierten, profitorientierten Krieg gibt es keinen Grund, aus dem man sterben sollte. Shelley nutzt sämtliche ihm zur Verfügung stehenden Hightech-Hilfsmittel, um seine Soldaten am Leben zu halten - aber seine beste Waffe ist sein untrügerisches Gespür, wenn Gefahr droht ... als stünde ihm Gott bei, um ihm warnend ins Ohr zu flüstern.
