The power struggle begins . . .
The people of Weyland always believed the slavers raids, which destroyed families and homes like a natural disaster, were a misfortune that couldn't be averted or stopped. 
But it's not true. 
King Marcus struck a deal: his people in exchange for technology and a powerful alliance with the Vandian civilisation.
And now everyone knows.
Jacob and Carter Carnehan escaped the slavers - along with the true king of Weyland - and have returned home with both the truth, and a Vandian princess as their hostage. Their purpose was to avoid war . . . instead, the truth prompts a civil war at home - while an invasion force focused on reclaiming the captive princess starts to gather on their borders.
Jacob and Carter will be separated once again - and this time they're fighting for something bigger than their lives.

Foul Tide's Turning

When Captain Lana Fiveworlds seizes on a lucrative contract to fly a rough-and-ready bunch of grave robbers between the worlds of long-extinct civilisations, she's expecting a nice easy ride for her misfit crew on board the starship Gravity Rose. After all, those unlucky perished alien species died of climate change, atomic wars, comet strikes, plagues, and mass solar flare ejections thousands, if not millions of years ago. So, what can go wrong? Plunder a few failed planets for priceless abandoned antiques and lost technologies and make out like an interstellar bandit! Sadly, the karma of the universe has other ideas - and easy, it surely ain't. When their troubles slowly mount, Lana, Calder, Zeno, and the other crew members battle for far more than their lives. The ultimate cost could be more than the captain - or her dear friends and family - can bear. ---------------ABOUT THE BOOK  'Voyage of the Void-Lost' is the 6th book in Sliding Void series.

The Plato Club - The Agatha Witchley Mysteries, #2

Captain Lana Fiveworlds has three ghastly problems: Her beloved crewman Calder Durk's gone missing. She now has a daughter to bring up on the rickety free-trader ship, Gravity Rose. Said daughter's from a parallel dimension (and that's only the start of her strangeness). Meanwhile, Commander Adella Vega of the Alliance navy - aka Hell-Fleet - also has three dire headaches: She's stuck at the dog-end of the galaxy on punishment duty with the Fleet's losers, thieves and pedantic pen-pushers. Large portions of her sector just went dark. Something big, bad, and particularly nasty is now heading her way. Both their troubles are about to collide and multiply in the most horrific manner since the Vela Supernova Remnant detonated. Sometimes, the future's so bright you better bring lead-lined shades. And a rail-cannon or three. Because Earth's best space opera series just met the page-turning universe of military science fiction! --------------- ABOUT THE BOOK 'Hell Fleet' is the 5th book in Sliding Void series.

Hell Fleet - Sliding Void, #5

The future is beautiful ... just not for everyone! Ash must escape from his broken war-torn country, fleeing towards mythical Europe, or face murder at the hands of a brutish local warlord. The one slight problem is, few ever survive the horrifying packs of ravenous hunting machines roaming across the depopulated border zone! But his perilous odyssey might be worth it. For in this future Europe, nobody goes hungry or poor. Crime has been as good as abolished, and everyone can pursue their dreams, whatever their passions may be. But when you have the perfect utopia, just how far do the clock's hands need to sweep to strike dystopia? Masterfully imagined and written, this haunting vision of our future questions what it means to be human, and firmly crowns Stephen Hunt at the vanguard of the science fiction genre.

Some of her fellow agents might be ripped hot - but does that actually matter if they are also willingto feed her to an ancient evil to achieve their mission? Because when your race is fighting a secret war for survival against vampires, zombies, werewolves, dark spirits, rogue angels and almost immortal Nazis, the worrying truth is .

Hell Sent

A hugely engaging adventure set in a Victorian-style world - a fantastical version of Dickens - that will appeal to fans of Susanna Clarke and Philip Pullman.

 Two orphans are more than they seem. And one megalomaniac will stop at nothing to find them.

 When Molly Templar witnesses a brutal murder at the brothel she has just been apprenticed to, her first instinct is to return to the poorhouse where she grew up. But there she finds her fellow orphans butchered, and it slowly dawns on her that she was in fact the real target of the attack. For Molly carries a secret deep in her blood, a secret that marks her out for destruction by enemies of the state. Soon Molly will find herself battling a grave threat to civilization which draws on an ancient power thought to have been quelled millennia ago.

 Oliver Brooks has led a sheltered life in the home of his merchant uncle. But when he is framed for his only relative's murder he is forced to flee for his life. He is accompanied by Harry Stave, an agent of the Court of the Air - a shadowy organization independent of the government that acts as the final judiciary of the land, ensuring that order prevails. Chased across the country, Oliver finds himself in the company of thieves, outlaws and spies, and gradually learns more about the secret that has blighted his life, but which may also offer him the power to avert the coming catastrophe.

 Their enemies are ruthless and myriad, but Molly and Oliver are joined by indomitable friends in this endlessly inventive tale full of drama, intrigue and adventure.
