The Eden virus is spreading. Blessing or curse, it's apparent that it can't be contained. For the poor and the sick, the Plague is a godsend, yet it puts those infected in the crosshairs of people who fear their own power is slipping away. When these desperate Edens turn to Daniel Markis and the Free Communities for help, he can't refuse. Spooky, Skull, and Reaper are soon struggling to save these Edens - but someone on the inside may betray them.

When oppression by the Unionist-dominated federal government becomes intolerable, the Republic of Texas secedes from the United States. As the Unionists respond with immediate violence, Daniel Markis and Spooky Nguyen send Reaper and Skull on missions to help the fledgling nation survive in the face of overwhelming odds. Can they win through to establish a haven for Edens on North American soil? Or, shall the world edge further into darkness?

Sniper and antihero Skull Denham refuses the Eden Plague rather than giving up the demons that drive him. Instead, he selects his own mission to fight against the ever-growing evil of those who would murder innocent Plague carriers, using the only methods he's ever found effective: swift, precise and brutal violence. Edgier than other Plague Wars novels, Skull's Shadows is a post-apocalyptic thriller meant for mature readers due to language, violence and adult situations.

When a friend disappears, Skull must track him down. When Spooky's family is sent to a death camp, he proposes a suicidal rescue, and only Reaper can lead it. Bogged down in a war with the rebel state of Alaska, at odds with Canada and meddling in Mexico's politics, the Unionist-controlled USA proceeds down an ugly path toward fascism, tyranny, and genocide. Politics, assassination, and propaganda form the backdrop for a race against time to rescue hundreds of dying Edens held deep within the American heartland.

My name is Simon Jackson: former soldier in the Elynese Special Forces and current fixer for mob boss Krahmin the voidtouched. Myan Station is my home. Dwarves, goblins, gnomes, grays, fey, even humans make up the melting pot that is Myan Station. When Malak the half-ork and I stole an ancient starship, we set off a chain of events that could spell the end of Myan Station.

A harrowing battle on Myan Station let me with a mysterious starship and three beautiful crew members. Together, we’ve been roaming the galaxy in search of people who needed our help. It’s not much in the grand scheme of things, but it’s helping to restore some of the honor I lost after working for a mob boss for the better part of my life. After what seems a run of the mill mission, I discover that the voidtouched and the anjelica have a history. They share a dark secret, one which could lead to the destruction of not only my starship and her crew, but also the entire universe.

Das Eden-Virus verbreitet sich immer weiter. Ob Segen oder Fluch – eines ist sicher: Es kann nicht mehr aufgehalten werden. Für die Armen und Kranken ist die Seuche ein Geschenk Gottes, doch gleichzeitig bringt sie die Infizierten ins Fadenkreuz jener Menschen, die den Verlust ihrer Macht fürchten.

In the long history of warfare and cultural and ethnic violence, the 20th century was exceptional for producing institutions charged with seeking accountability or redress for violent offenses and human rights abuses across the globe, often forcing nations to confront the consequences of past atrocities. The Holocaust ended with trials at Nuremberg, apartheid in South Africa concluded with the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, and the Gacaca courts continue to strive for closure in the wake of the Rwandan genocide.
