Subtlety is a game Joe is capable of, but he always preferred a more hands-on approach. Unluckily for him, the Komran are no longer satisfied with a war of attrition, and there’s no choice but to play. After intercepting the Komran battleplans on his last suicide mission, Joe gets the request to take on the most challenging mission to date: diplomacy.

There are still two more rounds in the Tournament of Grace; two more opportunities for Huon and the crew of the Strong Wind to obtain boons from the Low and High Celestials of Taloniar. Huon has attained the rank of Champion faster than he ever imagined he would, but after what he learned from the Devil of the West about the Everlasting King, he has a newfound zeal to reach even higher heights. If he's going to reach them fast enough, he'll have to win the Tournament of Grace.

The intergalactic barbarian has started establishing himself in this new future. But with a growing reputation comes the need to accomplish more complex feats. The Komran are happy to oblige, though they may not know it. They have taken a valuable Vale-sanctioned mine, trapping all the residents within and forcing them to work night and day. Curiously, the hostage-takers are not searching for the ore within.

When a known Komran outpost that has recently been upgraded shows signs of staging an invasion, there are only two options: commit to a full-force assault and lose many lives and ships to take the base, or send in a small, elite team to take on an entire base by themselves. The council believes the barbarian has done well so far. Why not risk his team’s necks first and see how it goes before scheduling that assault? Joe and his team must make their way to a planet that has been under Komran control for decades.

The story of Angela Hanson, a girl from the grim NYC public housing projects, a beautiful, complex woman whose sweetly innocent ruthlessness powers her rise into the billionaire class by her early thirties. She rocketed to the top of advertising with the help of legendary adman Jack Price, her mentor-turned-lover and the married man who dumped her. Returning as the executive charged with firing Jack and hundreds of others, she destroys his career in order to make him a pawn in her high-stakes game with a flighty heiress and her billionaire septuagenarian father.

Centuries after being driven from Earth as part of a massive diaspora triggered by an alien invasion, can the Valers face their worst—and unimaginable—nightmare? Can they withstand the might of the Komran Empire as it sweeps across the galaxy in a campaign to conquer all in its path? When the conflict reaches a crisis point, will they recognize that what they see as their greatest strength is their greatest weakness before it’s too late? Sometimes, situations are so ugly that only an ugly solution will suffice.

To flee the Everlasting King, Huon, Liona and Gale sail away from the Harolan continent. They hope they'll find safety, somewhere they can advance without fearing for their lives. But no one has successfully made such a journey in over a thousand years. They'll soon find out why. In the spirit of progression fantasies like Cradle and Mage Errant, enter a realm with magical beasts, where surgecallers can cultivate essence to strengthen their weapons, enhance their bodies and wield elemental magic.

Forced to become an Honourbound soldier in the Everlasting King's army, Huon struggles to do what is right when his actions are completely out of his control. He attained Knighthood, and is the strongest he's ever been, but his advancement means nothing while oathbound.

Huon is weak. A surgecaller who escaped into the wilds, his only goal was to survive. Now he is Oathbound, forced to fight in an arena, forced to become stronger than he’d thought possible. As he realizes he can become strong, the need for revenge fills his heart, and a new goal forms in his mind. But his goal is impossible: Kill the dragon rider, the Immortal of Fire. To succeed, he’ll have to do more than just survive - he’ll have to advance beyond anything the realm has ever seen.

The empire defeated the Swarm at the Battle of Iris, but it came at a great cost. To win, Hazard King needed to reveal he was Crown Prince Henry and take command of the Imperial Fleet as War Leader. Now their enemy is suing for peace, something many in the empire don't want to give. There are even officers in his own fleet that wish to restart the war and eradicate the Swarm. Hazard and his mother, Empress Elizabeth, face not only issues in the Isis System but across the empire.

Crimefighting is illegal, punishable by life in prison at the bottom of the ocean. It sucks. But that won't stop me from doing what I was born to do: uphold justice and stop good people from being hurt. Even if everyone I once called a friend is against me, I'm not bowing down to the Counter Vigilante Taskforce.

The Everlasting King has been dealt a blow. The blow has only brought Huon and those he fights beside to the Everlasting King's attention. Though Huon has reached the rank of Low Celestial faster than he had anticipated while destroying one of the Everlasting King's stockpiles of stolen cores, he fears that his newfound strength won't be enough to protect his friends. As the Everlasting King's fleet prepares to sail for Taloniar, their only hope to prevent full-on war between the two continents is to find and destroy the other stockpiles of cores before the fleet reaches its destination.

Awakening from cryo sleep after barely surviving the Tarrant System Battle, Captain Hazard King begins working on restoring the wrecked Imperial Fleet. The Swarm forces smell blood and press their victory, sending a strike fleet to attack the Fleet base at Icarus. In the past, the Empire had ten years between attacks. This time, they'll only have two. Even worse, the Empire doesn't have the forces or the technology needed to stop the massive Swarm fleet, and Hazard is stymied at every turn by an entrenched bureaucracy that is unable to give Hazard the resources required to win the war.

Hazard King was ready to get back to a normal life… Well, as normal a life as the next emperor of the Brittania Empire could expect, anyway. Hazard wanted to continue his naval career—to grow and take on positions of higher responsibility—because he knew the Swarm would be back, and he intended to be there to fight them when they returned. He had learned how to delegate, though, and while he was training, the rest of Team Hazard was tasked with eliminating the Marxist spy network, which they had discovered was mostly made up of rogue Imperial spies.

Hazard King had always wanted to be an Imperial Fleet officer, just like his father. But he’s a Prince of the Realm, which make things a bit more… complicated. And when Hazard’s parents tell him that they don’t trust his older brother and want Hazard to be the Crown Prince—the heir to the throne—things go from bad to worse. Just when it seems they can’t get any worse, the Empress is attacked.
