Jack has undertaken to return rescued Tirarge, a hitherto unknown species, to their home planet. The first problem? The Tirarge cannot speak—they're telepathic. The second problem? They don't know where their home system is located. The third problem? Another starship is following Fearless, likely seeking revenge.
Oh wait, there's another problem. Two other species also inhabit this unknown planet, and they can't speak either.
Surprisingly, that's not the end of Jack's problems.
Jack, while sympathetic to the issues facing the planet and its people, has no standing apart from Fearless and his three bots and the Eagles and the SAC scouts and a squad of Black Company marines and a warrior squad of Tirarge and an AI or two...
The rulers of the planet, ignoring civilized conventions, have a simple yet elegant solution. They re-name their world and nominate Jack as its new owner. They engrave the title to the planet on a massive diamond, a jewel worth more than Jack can ever dream of. The new name of this world? Jack Foster's Planet.
There are enemies on their way, possibly a GalFed destroyer or two, and a planet to protect. Join Jack and his team—ever increasing—in their venture to help their new friends against slave traders and Jack's Planet against illegal mining.
Nothing will stop this father from finding his daughter.
Not even the end of the world.
Detective Elijah Wade is on the trail of a serial killer when the skies above Los Angeles erupt into the most spectacular light show humanity has ever seen. And the most deadly. His daughter is in a hospital bed on the other side of the continent, but where does his duty lie now? To her, to justice, or to his species?
Astronomer Hannah Redman watches as her colleagues die one by one, victims of a lethal dose of radiation. Can she survive long enough to discover what's caused the catastrophe and whether it will happen again?
Two sisters arrive at the family cabin deep in the woods for a gathering that never happens. An old woman finds she's not quite as prepared for the end of the world as she thought and a Mennonite couple remain true to their faith even as the Great Tribulation unfolds around them.
Each of these unique viewpoints has a part to play as the story unfolds.
Mankind is on its knees, and the clock is ticking.
Following his victory at the Falls of Iron, the champion Corthie Holdfast starts to believe he has a destiny. He is the chosen one, the hero who will defeat the Ascendants, and end their tyrannical rule of Lostwell.
As the Black Dragon tries to assemble an army from the wild and outlaw dragons of the Catacombs, the Gods of Implacatus plan their revenge, sending two Ascendants to regain control of Lostwell.
Their mission-to find the fabled Sextant, and to destroy the Holdfasts forever.
Speed, surprise, and aggression... Hit on Jackpot is go.
The scourge of the Savage Lands, an ancient dragon allied to a gathering storm of dark forces threatening the world of Ruin, becomes the next target of the most fearsome shock troops ever conceived, prepared, and trained for total war: US Army Rangers.
Deep beneath a once-fantastic ruined empire, a creature more terrible, diabolical, and malevolent than any myth ever told lies atop a vast horde of wondrous treasure and deadly magic, dreaming dreams of greed and terror. The Rangers of the Ruin will thread the dangerous trap-laden depths of a deadly desolation sinking into a foul swamp in order to get their hit on the ancient prize.
But be warned, the fight you pick with Rangers is going to be the last fight you pick.
It's Rangers vs. Dragon as the saga of Forgotten Ruin continues! Audiobook also includes after-action report with authors and Ranger quality-control advisors!
Sometimes just surviving isn't enough . . .
Staff Sergeant Eli Vanhorn is injured after a desperate battle with the Orrkasi aliens on Leonis B. He's cut off from the other survivors of the Space Fleet exploration ship Rihla, which was shot down when she entered orbit. And he's going to need every skill he's honed over his long career in the Fleet Marine Corps just to stay alive.
Priority one, survive. Priority two, find the other survivors and take stock of their options. Priority three, take the fight back to the Orrkasi and make them wish they had never set foot on Leonis B.
Resistance is a fast paced, military sci-fi in the tradition of Starship Troopers and Battle Los Angeles. From the mind of master storyteller Toby Neighbors comes the third installment in the best selling SSG Vanhorn series. It's a high octane action & adventure story that will keep you turning pages late into the night. The survivors of the Rihla still hope for rescue, but in the meantime, they will become the Resistance.
What happens when Adam Cain-the Alien with an Attitude-gets really pissed off?
Hint: It ain't pretty.
The Scorched Earth in the title doesn't refer to the Human's homeworld. Rather it describes the path of death and destruction that Adam Cain burns on his way from Earth to the planet Juir as he seeks revenge for the killing of one of his closest friends. But there's more. Sherri and Arieel have been taken prisoner by the Juirean leader, with a date for their execution already set. The aliens may have thought Adam was dangerous before, but they ain't seen nothing yet.
This is a no-holes-barred action adventure, devoid of PC sensitivities and giving full display to the animal side of Human nature. The bottom line: The aliens pissed off the wrong guy this time . . . and now they have to pay the price. Against overwhelming odds, Adam and his team fight through every obstacle and vanquish every foe on their way to victory. But this victory won't come cheap . . .
A William Johnson short story. This is book Zero, of the William Johnson Family series
Three large objects were heading towards Earth. Large enough to do real damage. Even more concerning, they didn’t look like asteroids at all. The three appeared to be rectangular. They were coming in fast, incredibly fast, on a collision course. Another notification alarm began sounding. The object’s trajectory and speed were changing. They were slowing and separating. Taking up positions around the Earth. The station supervisor activated the emergency alert system, and reached for the red phone.
Before anyone could react further, the visitors removed our eyes and ears from the sky. Without an understanding of how this could happen, orbital satellites began vanishing. Our ground based systems confirmed it. Somehow, they were being swept away. Foolishly, we stared at the monitor screens watching it happen, like rabbits watching the oncoming headlights, mesmerized by the mystery of it.
The war began on August 8. Without warning, they attacked. We were being exterminated, down to the last person on Earth. And in spite of our efforts to fight back, we couldn’t seem to stop them. That is, until William Johnson saved us.
Today, William Johnson has agreed to once again recount his experience of that crucial moment in time, when the fate of humanity was suspended, waiting for someone to do what was needed to tip the balance in its favor. He will tell the story with all the raw emotion those old memories will force upon him one more time.
Um Kontakt mit außerirdischen Intelligenzen zu suchen, wird auf der Erde das 'Projekt S.E.T.I.' betrieben. Damit sollen Radiosignale aus dem All aufgefangen werden. Gerade, als ein Senator des US-Finanzausschusses dem Projektleiter die Streichung der finanziellen Mittel mitteilt, wird etwas Ungewöhnliches empfangen, zunächst nur unverständliche Funksignale. Wie sich herausstellt, handelt es sich um komplexe Zahlenreihen und Bezeichnungen für bestimmte Aminosäuren. Der Senator befürchtet, dass die Außerirdischen ungewöhnlich viel über die Menschen wissen und möglicherweise eine Gefahr für die Erde sein könnten, zumal immer mehr und immer komplexere Botschaften eintreffen. Woher wissen die Fremden so viel? Sind sie etwa schon mit Raumschiffen im Sonnensystem und hören die Radio- und TV-Sendungen ab? Und wenn ja, warum nehmen sie nicht direkt Kontakt mit der Menschheit auf? Sind sie möglicherweise gar nicht an einem friedlichen Kontakt mit den Menschen interessiert? Sind sie gar als Feinde anzusehen? Schließlich trifft ein Notruf ein ...vom Erdmond ...
Auf der Raumstation 'Orbit Challenger' wird eine Bombe entdeckt, im letzten Moment kann der gefährdete Bereich isoliert werden, aber damit ist klar geworden, dass irgendjemand vorhat, die Station zu zerstören. Der Verdacht fällt auf einen nordafrikanischen Staat, dessen Präsident Kadidi sich gegenüber den westlichen Staaten profilieren will. Kurz darauf wird ein Space Shuttle der Station entführt, schafft aber den Eintritt in die Erdatmosphäre nicht und explodiert.
Science Fiction mit Tiefgang - ein Hörbuch aus dem beliebten Wayfarer-Universum.
Auf der Asteria, einem Siedlerschiff der exodanischen Flotte, ist für jeden gesorgt: Alle haben eine Wohnung, alle haben zu essen, alle haben einen Job - und leisten noch im Tod einen wertvollen Beitrag zur Gemeinschaft. Lichtjahre entfernt von der zerstörten Erde haben sich die Menschen ein wohldurchdachtes, selbstgenügsames Leben im Weltraum eingerichtet.
Doch inzwischen sind ganze Generationen auf den Schiffen der Flotte geboren und aufgewachsen, und je selbstverständlicher das Siedlerdasein wird, desto größer sind die Zweifel: Bei Kip, der mit seinen 16 Jahren noch nicht weiß, was er mit seiner Zukunft anfangen will - außer dass sie sich definitiv nicht auf der Asteria abspielen soll. Bei Tessa, deren Alltag mit Job und Familie mehr als ausgefüllt ist - bis der technische Fortschritt sie einholt. Und bei der Archivarin Isabel, die sorgfältig die alten Traditionen bewahrt, die die Menschheit im Exil zusammenhalten sollen.
Sie alle stehen vor der Frage: Warum auf einem Schiff bleiben, das sein Ziel längst erreicht hat?
Clear waters, pristine beaches, and the bones of human sacrifices…
Of all the places to be transported by magic against my will, a tropical island doesn’t seem too bad. Unfortunately it’s teeming with blood casters who want me dead. On the bright side, I’m not alone; my friends are here too and we’ve faced tougher odds together before.
But the dangerous magic on this island isn’t like some of our other foes and there are places some of us can’t even go without triggering deadly blood magic spells.
To make matters worse, the leader of the blood casters is here and she is a witch to be reckoned with. If the rumors are true, she has rediscovered arcanism – an ancient magic even more deadly than blood magic. If she really is an arcanist, she’s the most powerful magical being in the world and she has made it clear she’s willing to kill anyone who gets in her way. And of course, we are very much in her way.
