  Irody can speak to the dead.But the living want him silenced.Mortedants can speak to the dead –­ and Irody Hasp is the greatest of them. Not that they’ll admit it. And not that anyone actually likes the Mortedants, or Irody in particular.Nonetheless, Elbay is a city of tradition, and tradition calls for Mortedants to attend a death. But when Irody reads the corpse of a low-level worker, he’s dragged into a conspiracy that will see those closest to him murdered and Irody framed for the crime, the eyes of the city’s guilds, nobles and villains all fixed on him.With only days to prove his innocence before his execution, Irody is forced to work with unlikely and unwanted allies: a street urchin and a hulking, inhuman mercenary from the sea people’s city of Oknosuka. With danger and death lurking round every corner, and trust a luxury, Irody is running out of time. He must save himself and his friends as well as Elbay – the magnificent, terrifying, complicated city that he loves. Or darkness will fall on them all.

  "The Last Pilgrim" concludes the Rake's Progress Trilogy with a masterful exploration of redemption, family, and adaptation in a rapidly changing world. 
  When Jack Drummond's ex-wife orchestrates his arrest through Interpol, his carefully constructed world begins to crumble. His imprisonment in Belmarsh threatens not just his business empire but his most precious relationship – with his children. Released but blacklisted by London's financial establishment, Jack must rebuild from nothing while protecting his son Tristan from his mother's destructive influence and supporting his daughter Alice's humanitarian ambitions. 
  The story spans a transformative decade, from the early promise of cryptocurrency to the rise of artificial intelligence and the stark realities of war in Ukraine. Through these sweeping changes, Jack navigates the complexities of fatherhood, love, and survival. His relationship with Svetlana, a Ukrainian woman whose family becomes caught in the war, adds depth to his journey of personal growth. 
  Stuart-Douglas draws on his intimate knowledge of both old and new money to craft a narrative that seamlessly moves from the hunting fields of Wiltshire to the beach clubs of Tulum, from London boardrooms to war-torn Bucha. The author brings authenticity to every scene, whether describing international finance, English country traditions, or the brutal realities of modern warfare. 
  "The Last Pilgrim" is ultimately about transformation – personal, professional, and societal. It explores finding hope in destruction's aftermath, love in loss's shadow, and purpose in uncertainty. Stuart-Douglas has created a compelling finale that bridges high finance, family drama, and international politics, offering both entertainment and thoughtful examination of how we navigate change in an increasingly complex world.

  Audiobook Description  
  Five years have passed since the Black Sky War tore through Earth. Humanity has rebuilt, but the scars of the past still linger. Jack Steele, the fearless survivor of Rivertown, and his allies carry the memories of friends, family, and loved ones lost to the alien invaders, the Aliens. 
  Commander Xylox, the massive and ruthless alien general who once brought humanity to the brink of destruction, has returned. His fleet is larger, deadlier, and more determined than ever. Earth’s cities, forests, and towns tremble under the shadow of his mothership, and every human alive knows that the fight ahead will demand courage, sacrifice, and ingenuity like never before. 
  Jack Steele is no longer just a survivor. He is a leader. Alongside familiar faces from Book One and new heroes who have joined the resistance, Jack must train, strategize, and face terrifying enemies. Among the new warriors are men and women driven by vengeance  each carrying their own losses, fears, and secrets. Together, they will test every weapon humanity has developed: hybrid energy rifles, EMP bombs, flamethrowers, explosives, and tactical traps derived from alien technology. 
  From tense night raids to daring sabotage missions, from skirmishes across scorched landscapes to massive confrontations with aliens twice the size of humans, this story plunges readers into a relentless battle for survival. Friends will fall. Villages will burn. Choices will weigh heavy on Jack and his allies as the line between victory and death blurs with every passing moment. 
  But this is not just a story of war. It is a story of hope. It is a story of humanity learning to rise from ashes, to fight back when the odds seem impossible, and to stand together even when fear and grief threaten to overwhelm them. Through courage, strategy, and sheer determination, humans learn that survival is not enough  they must reclaim their world.
