Sinopsis

Freshly home from her Finishing School in Florence, the beautiful young Lady Odela Ford finds to her dismay that her new stepmother, the Countess of Shalford, is scheming against her and her beloved father. Odela’s mother, who she adored, has died and her father has married again rather too quickly.To her horror and mystification she overhears one day her stepmother ordering her lover, the Viscount More, to marry Odela – for her money as he has very little himself.This is the first that Odela hears of the American oil shares that her late mother left her, which have now accumulated into a vast fortune. Unwilling to tell her father that he is being betrayed by his wife, Odela seeks refuge with her old Nanny at the country house of the Marquis of Trancombe. Almost straight away there is an undeniable and irresistible attraction between her and the handsome Marquis. But no sooner has she found safety than new danger appears in the form of a ruthless thief and she finds herself, together with the Marquis, imprisoned under threat of death. Will she and her hero die ignominiously before their love can be awakened?

    Natalie Lyster was once an honorable soldier. But when a government conspiracy led to the death of a loved one, she went rogue. After years on the run, she now leads a criminal organization, working for the highest bidder. 
     
     
     
    That bidder is the corrupt planetary union Czar. The job has taken Lyster and her crew to the planet Salacia. Their goal: excavate the zorbernite mineral from the slopes of the supervolcano Mount Ragnarök and deliver it to the Czar military. 
     
     
     
    In their digging, they found more than mineral. 
     
     
     
    Lyster's ship is intercepted by a strike force led by Commander Tucker Greyson. The pursuit goes haywire, for a swarm of giant alien wasps bring down the spacecrafts. 
     
     
     
    Forced to travel on foot, Greyson and Lyster quickly learn the wasps are only the beginning of their problems. Man-eating raptors lurk behind every tree, ambushing everyone who gets too close; echoes of heavy footsteps reveal the presence of a larger predator hunting in the region; and heavy seismic activity from the mountainside warn of Mount Ragnarök’s impending fiery wrath. With time running out, the group must reach the main campsite and commandeer a spacecraft, or else perish in the hellish fires of Mount Ragnarök.

    To wage war against the Bohao cultists, who have essentially taken control of both worlds, you need to think strategically. Eliminating the leadership seems logical, but with no access to the central region where the cult's leaders hide, that's a dead end. Hunting down individual cultists would take centuries, and they'd just recruit more in the meantime. 
     
     
     
    So what do we do? The best approach would be to cut off all supply lines of the ancient substance they rely on and destroy every concentration camp where they keep the unfortunates they intend to sacrifice on their altar. This should force the cult's leadership to come out of their strongholds and into the outlying tiers—which is exactly what the Seekers are after. 
     
     
     
    The more enemies they attract, the richer the rewards from their downfall!
