Despite the escape from Meridian - and a strike at the heart of Wolfbane - enemy forces are still advancing on all fronts. The Commonwealth, worn down by a year of hard fighting, is reaching the end of its tether while Admiral Singh, having secured control of Wolfbane, is searching for the breaking point that will shatter the Commonwealth once and for all. Time is needed, time to bring new weapons and tactics into service, but time is the one thing the Commonwealth doesn't have.

Before Avalon, before the Fall of the Empire, Edward Stalker was a young man growing up in Earth's Undercity - a nightmarish rabbit warren of tiny apartments dominated by gangs who loot, rape, and murder with impunity. When his family is killed in a gang attack, Ed takes the opportunity to run to the one place that will take him: the Terran Marine Corps.

The war isn't going well. Wolfbane's forces are pressing the Commonwealth on multiple fronts, the Commonwealth's fragile political balance is on the verge of shattering, and there's a high-placed spy somewhere within the Commonwealth elite. For Colonel Edward Stalker and his men, the stakes have never been so high. Defeat will mean the end of everything they have fought and died for since their exile from Earth.

As the Commonwealth produces more starships and increases recruits, victory begins to slip from Theocratic control. This can only make the Theocracy more desperate to win...and more dangerous to fight. After a mission to liberate an occupied planet ends in nuclear devastation, Kat Falcone - now a commodore in command of HMS Queen Elizabeth - sees firsthand just how far the enemy will go.

Captain Kat Falcone owes her life and career to her former right-hand man, William McElney, and she did everything in her power to make sure he was front and center for a promotion. But now that he has it, she fears he'll have to watch his back. Captain McElney has been assigned to HMS Uncanny - nicknamed Unlucky - a heavy cruiser tainted by the mysterious deaths of two former captains and rumors of mutineers.

Now a celebrated war hero, Captain Kat Falcone is back at the helm of HMS Lightning...and up against near-impossible odds. After an ill-timed outburst almost ends her career, Kat is handed command of a deep-strike mission into enemy space. The objective is to gather intelligence and distract the hostile Theocracy while the Commonwealth prepares its counteroffensive. The chances for success are slim - and for survival even slimmer.

Throughout the human experience, historians have wondered “what if?”. What if Sherman had fought for the South in the US Civil War? What if Germany had fought to the end in World War I? What if World War III had actually happened? Wonder no more, for these questions, along with many others, are answered in this audiobook.

A year ago, the war against the Theocracy ended. But it didn't bring peace. Admiral Kat Falcone was lucky - her side won the war. But without an external threat, Kat’s homeworld government, the Commonwealth, begins to burst. The galactic war may be over, but there is a civil war on the horizon. The king and parliament disagree over the Commonwealth's future. The Commonwealth's first recession is plaguing corporations.

The Nameless World is a place of magic and mystery, of kings and princes and magicians and merchants and rebels, fighting for supremacy or power or even just to carve out a place for themselves in a world of wonders and terrors, a world forever changed by a traveler from our world…

Montezuma was an isolated world of interest to no one—until an interstellar corporation discovered vast resources of rare materials under the surface, just waiting to be extracted and sold. The corporates legally stole the planet, crushed the native dreams of independence, and brought in vast numbers of outsiders to mine the rough-hewn world, leaving poverty, pollution, and deprivation on an unimaginable scale in their wake.

Emily es una adolescente a la que un nigromante secuestra para sacrificarla a los dioses de su hogar natal, un mundo fantástico poblado de magia y misterio. Tras un rescate milagroso en el último momento, un enigmático hechicero descubre que Emily no solo posee poderes mágicos, sino que podría ser una Hija del destino, alguien con el potencial para salvar o condenar al mundo. Nuestra heroína tendrá que aprender a emplear sus talentos en la escuela Whitehall, mientras intenta burlar a su acérrimo enemigo, el nigromante, que sigue empeñado en asesinarla.

Nach ihrem ersten Jahr auf der Zauberschule Whitehall nimmt Emily die Einladung von Prinzessin Alassa an, gemeinsam die Reise in ihr Heimatland Zangaria anzutreten, wo die Prinzessin vielleicht ihren künftigen Ehemann treffen wird. Alassa, die vor der Begegnung mit Emily völlig verzogen war, möchte mit ihrer Freundin angeben – und mögliche Heiratskandidaten beeindrucken. Emily kann ausspannen und eine Welt erkunden, die ganz anders ist als die Erde; sie kann neue Leute treffen und sich an den Ruf gewöhnen, der ihr in der Namenlosen Welt vorauseilt.

Emily erfährt, dass sie Zauberkräfte besitzt, und um zu lernen, ihre Fähigkeiten einzusetzen, soll sie in Whitehall, der ältesten und ehrwürdigsten Zauberschule, ausgebildet werden. Die Einheimischen dort halten sie für ein "Schicksalskind" – dazu bestimmt, Großes zu vollbringen. Ein Titel, der ihr Freunde und Feinde bringt. Als Fremde in einer unbekannten Welt muss Emily sich in ihrem neuen Leben zurechtfinden ... und zugleich um ihr Leben fürchten. Denn der Nekromant ist weiter auf der Jagd nach ihr, und wenn Emily ihn nicht aufhält, kann er der Welt den Untergang bringen.

Salvata appena in tempo da un enigmatico stregone, Emily scopre di possedere dei poteri magici che dovrà imparare a utilizzare a Whitehall, una scuola per maghi. Lì verrà a sapere che tutti la considerano una Figlia del Destino – creatura dalle cui scelte dipende la salvezza o la dannazione del mondo – titolo che le attirerà sia amici che nemici.

Per Emily il viaggio, oltre che motivo di svago, diventa occasione per esplorare un mondo molto diverso dal suo, conoscere nuove persone e venire a patti con la sua nuova reputazione in quel pianeta senza nome. Dopo la sua vittoria su Shadye, chiunque desidera vederla, parlarle, a volte addirittura sposarla o ucciderla. Per una ragazza introversa come lei, l'esperienza è alquanto sconvolgente. Non è mai stata corteggiata prima di allora, non sulla Terra.

The University of Heart’s Eye barely survived the conflict between magical and mundane students–a conflict fanned by an undercover sorcerer hiding in the last place anyone suspected, a conflict that came within moments of destroying the university or delivering the student body into inescapable servitude. But the fight for academic independence is far from over. Chaos is spreading across the Allied Lands and the university is being sucked into a vortex that may still destroy Emily’s dreams of a better future for the entire world.

After being trapped in a very strange world, Elliot Richardson found his footing and led the forces of Damansara to victory, only to find himself under threat from jealous and resentful city fathers who thought he was on the verge of overthrowing their rule and taking their power for himself.
