Synopsis

Adultery and treachery shape this thrilling romance set against the backdrop of the War of the Roses—from the New York Times–bestselling author. 
 
A woman banished 
 
Griffith, battle-seasoned warrior and the king’s most trusted emissary, expected to find a shallow, vain, frivolous woman at Wenthaven Castle. After all, as lady-in-waiting to the queen, lovely Lady Marian had been in a position of privilege, yet she had been banished from the court amid rumors she had given birth to an illegitimate child. 
 
An outrageous offer 
 
When he arrived, Griffith found Lady Marian to be strong, intelligent and fiercely protective of the young baby in her custody . . . and very suspicious of him. If he were smart, the knight would just deliver the message with which he had been entrusted. Instead, he longs to linger to delve into the mystery that is Marian, to discover what she so desperately fears—and why he so improperly wants her.`

    If they’re coming for us, who’s coming for them? A first contact novel from the #1 New York Times–bestselling author of Relic.   The galaxy is vast, and not everything is what it seems. The invasion we always feared is here.   Which begs the question: what do the invaders fear? If not us, then what . . . or who?   And what happens to the would-be peacemakers when they find themselves in the middle of something else? Something dangerous, something highly advanced, and . . . something familiar?   If humanity is wise, we will prepare for everything we can imagine.   But we cannot prepare for what we cannot imagine.   It might be benign, it might be malign, or it might be a sign.   You just have to know where to look.  Praise for Alan Dean Foster   “Provocative.” —The Washington Post   “One of the most consistently inventive and fertile writers of science fiction and fantasy.” —The Times   “Alan Dean Foster is a master of creating alien worlds.” —SFRevu   “Foster knows how to spin a yarn.” —Starlog   “Foster does a fine job with his misfit heroes and even with his minor characters.” —Publishers Weekly
