Beschreibung

Dark magical forces are afoot in the eighth entry of the shared-world fantasy series. An ominous black storm from hell rages down on the city of Ranke. Its streets are full of lethal hail, and its walls are coated with ash. As the new Emperor and his mercenary Tempus wonder what can be done to stop it, a shade manifests before them on behalf of the gods with a decree: Travel to the city of Sanctuary and destroy the globes of the Nisibisi power . . . Meanwhile, Sanctuary is riddled with crime, blood feuds, and warring factions. An army of mercenaries is all that stands between the city and chaos. And the witch once known as Death’s Queen, Roxane, lives in a hovel by the river. She no longer holds as much power as she once did, but even she can sense that trouble is on its way . . . Brace yourself for adventure in this shared-world anthology featuring six stories by three of fantasy’s best authors: Lynn Abbey, Janet Morris, and C. J. Cherryh.

    Warning! Wildlife may be dangerous. Proceed beyond this point at your own risk. 
    When celebrated Omicron detective Ferrix Vaughn is called in to investigate a deadly breach on Hesperidia, a protected planet full of indigenous wildlife, he doesn't know what to expect. The place used to be a tourist attraction, but the safari tours were discontinued long ago due to rampant poaching. Only a handful of researchers live there now, including Jan Corbija, the young woman who reported the breach. 
    The deeper Vaughn digs, the more the evidence seems to point to a recent raid on a biotech facility in a nearby system. Whatever was stolen from there, it's attracted the attention of major political players in a time of war across the colonies. Vaughn suspects the secret is on Hesperidia, in the hands of the two fugitives who fled the murder scene. If he wants to get to them first, he's going to need Jan's help. Her Alien Safari tour will have to reopen for this final excursion. But to survive it, they'll both need to face their demons, for a predator far deadlier than man roams the wilds of Hesperidia. And this is its killing season. 
    This way for the ride of your life.

    Know when to hold your ground. When to walk away. But especially when to run. 
     
     
     
    Lily Red, known as "Little Red", has trained her entire life to become a system-acknowledged scout under her Grandmother's guidance. Hunting, tracking, and trap-making—she's a master of her craft. But her dreams of joining the elite Scout forces are repeatedly blocked by a leader of the Wyld with a grudge against Grandmother. 
     
     
     
    When Lily uncovers an impending invasion by Wolf Warband, brutal raiders from the frozen north, a deadly challenge offered by their war leader sets her pulse racing. She's his partner in prophecy, so as far as he's concerned she's the only person in the way. Little Red races away to warn the Wyld, but the city's rulers mock her warnings as fairy tales, dismissing the threat entirely. Undeterred, she vows to protect the people of Canu Moch herself. 
     
     
     
    But Lily isn't about to back down. She'll be the competent protector of the people of Canu Moch—whether they want her or not. With the three city-states planning to ignore the danger, she strikes out on her own, quickly finding herself on the razor's edge between duty and ambition as Little Red pits herself against the Big Bad Wolf. 
     
     
     
    Stay on the path. Don't stray or roam. Lest the forest decides you shan't find your way home.

    She has lived as a warrior. Became Erin's Hero. Sacrificed herself for her land. Now, she must rise as a goddess. 
    With fragmented memories of her former life as Breanna Ban Morna—a fierce Gaelic-Norse warrior—Erin’s Hero awakens to a new fate. To discover what she has become, she must seek the wisdom of the All-Father, Dagda himself, who is now her father in the new timeline. 
    Having wielded the magic of the Triple Dàns, Breanna is no longer just a mortal champion. To fulfill her destiny, she must walk Erin’s Cycle of Time and be forged into the Tuatha Goddess of Time—a being with the power to shape history itself. 
    Only with this transformation can she and her Warriors of Destiny stand against the looming threats: the might of Roman conquest in the past, the rise of British dynasties, and a new religion sweeping the mainland while destroying the Celtic Tribes who live there. 
    To save her people, Breanna must embrace her true power—and create a future where the Gaels and Celts do not fall—but rise! 
    A warrior reborn. A goddess rising. Breanna Ban Morna must walk the Cycle of Time to save her Gaels from Rome, rising kings, and new faiths bent on conquest.
