PUBLISHER'S SUMMARY
Sten embarks on the ultimate treasure hunt: the search for the source of the
Eternal Emperor's power. But his quest uncovers the dark secret of the emperor's
past - and Sten finds himself questioning his loyalties - and whether the only
way to save the human race is to destroy the Empire he vowed to protect.

The first book in an action–packed new SF adventure series. Vulcan is a factory
planet, centuries old, Company run, ugly as sin, and unfeeling as death. Vulcan
breeds just two types of native: complacent or tough. Sten is tough. When his
family is killed in a mysterious accident, Sten rebels, harassing the Company
from the metal world’s endless maze-like warrens. He could end up just another
burnt–out Delinquent. But people like Sten never give up.

There he was in his sailboat in the middle of the Atlantic, all alone and loving
it. Well, there was a US Navy carrier group on his southern horizon, but he was
a Navy guy himself, so he didn't mind. Then came the UFOs, hurtling in from the
Outer Black to overfly the carriers at Mach 17. Their impossible aerobatics were
bad enough—but then they started shooting at each other, and at the Navy, with
nukes. Little ones at first, but winding up with a 500 megatonner at 90 miles
that fried every piece of electronics within line-of-sight.

Ross Jenkins, Art Mueller, and Morris Abrams are not your average high-school
students. While other kids are cruising around in their cars or playing ball,
this trio, known as the Galileo Club, is experimenting with rocket fuels. Art's
uncle, the nuclear physicist Dr. Donald Cargraves, offers them the opportunity
of a lifetime: to construct and crew a rocket that will take them to the moon.
But there are those who don't share their dream and who will stop at nothing to
keep their rocket grounded.

After the fall of the American Ayatollahs as foretold in Stranger in a Strange
Land and chronicled in Revolt in 2100, the United States of America at last
fulfills the promise inherent in its first Revolution: for the first time in
human history there is a nation with Liberty and Justice for All. No one may
seize or harm the person or property of another, or invade his privacy, or force
him to do his bidding. Americans are fiercely proud of their re-won liberties
and the blood it cost them; nothing could make them forswear those truths they
hold self-evident. Nothing except the promise of immortality…

We were fighting on the wrong side of a war we couldn't win. And that was the
good news. The Ruhar hit us on Columbus Day. There we were, innocently drifting
along the cosmos on our little blue marble, like the native Americans in 1492.
Over the horizon come ships of a technologically advanced, aggressive culture,
and BAM! There go the good old days, when humans only got killed by each other.
So, Columbus Day. It fits. When the morning sky twinkled again, this time with
Kristang starships jumping in to hammer the Ruhar, we thought we were saved.

Friday, a secret courier, is thrown into an assignment under the command of her
employer, a man she knows only as "Boss." She operates from and over a
near-future Earth in North America, a vulgar and chaotic land comprised of
dozens of independent states. In America's disunion, Friday keeps her balance
nimbly with quick, expeditious solutions as she conquers one calamity and scrape
after another.

Travel to other planets is now a reality, and with overpopulation stretching the
resources of Earth, the necessity of finding habitable worlds is growing ever
more urgent. There’s a problem though—because the spaceships are slower than
light, any communication between the exploring ships and Earth would take years.
Tom and Pat are identical twin teenagers. As twins they’ve always been close, so
close that it seemed like they could read each other’s minds.

On the world called Hyperion, beyond the law of the Hegemony of Man, there waits
the creature called the Shrike. There are those who worship it. There are those
who fear it. And there are those who have vowed to destroy it. In the Valley of
the Time Tombs, where huge, brooding structures move backward through time, the
Shrike waits for them all.

the newspaper. One ad in particular leapt out at him: "Are you a coward? This is
not for you. We badly need a brave man. He must be 23 to 25 years old, in
perfect health, at least six feet tall, weigh about 190 pounds, fluent English
with some French, proficient with all weapons, some knowledge of engineering and
mathematics essential...."

Welcome to Ringworld, an intermediate step between Dyson Spheres and planets.
The gravitational force created by a rotation on its axis of 770 miles per
second means no need for a roof. Walls 1,000 miles high at each rim will let in
the sun and prevent much air from escaping. Larry Niven's novel, Ringworld, is
the winner of the 1970 Hugo Award for Best Novel, the 1970 Nebula Award for Best
Novel, and the 1972 Ditmars, an Australian award for Best International Science
Fiction.

They say that the Thorn of Camorr can beat anyone in a fight. They say he steals
from the rich and gives to the poor. They say he's part man, part myth, and
mostly street-corner rumor. And they are wrong on every count. Only averagely
tall, slender, and god-awful with a sword, Locke Lamora is the fabled Thorn, and
the greatest weapons at his disposal are his wit and cunning. He steals from the
rich - they're the only ones worth stealing from - but the poor can go steal for
themselves.

The gigantic comet had slammed into Earth, forging earthquakes a thousand times
too powerful to measure on the Richter scale, tidal waves thousands of feet
high. Cities were turned into oceans; oceans turned into steam. It was the
beginning of a new Ice Age and the end of civilization. But for the terrified
men and women chance had saved, it was also the dawn of a new struggle for
survival--a struggle more dangerous and challenging than any they had ever
known....

no significant crater. The anomaly came to be known as the Tunguska Event, and
scientists have never agreed whether it was the largest meteor strike in
recorded history - or something else. Alien artifacts have been uncovered since
the 1908 event, and a new star drive is discovered.

scientists deduce the mysterious ship to be a visitor from another star. The
world's frantic efforts to signal the aliens go unanswered. The first contact is
hostile: the invaders blast a Soviet space station, seize the survivors, and
then destroy every dam and installation on Earth with a hail of asteriods.

They tried to destroy our planets. Our way of life. They tried to send us into
extinction. But we, the Coalition, fought them and won. That was a decade ago.
They’re known as the Host: a cabal of aliens seeking to dominate our sector of
space. And they’re back - with help from a powerful new enemy. We’re outnumbered
and unprepared. But there is hope. An ancient race of long-dead but
technologically advanced aliens called the Navigators have a ship called the
Blackstar that could potentially turn the tide. That is if I, Kai Locke, a
humble ship racer, can find it and learn how to harness its power in time.

They're all gone. We remember them like yesterday: pieces of our stolen
heritage. Things like NASA. Football. Parades and pies. Good things, comfortable
things. We remember a time when we were alone in the universe, safe and
oblivious. But it's all gone now. We called them the Telestines, and in the face
of their ruthless invasion we were powerless. By 2040, all the world's
governments and militaries had fallen, and the remnants of humanity exiled to
the solar system. We looked down on our blue planet, so close to our birthplace,
so close to our home.

Passage at Arms tells the intimate, detailed and harrowing story of a climber
crew and its captain during a critical juncture of the war. Cook combines
speculative technology with a canny and realistic portrait of men at war and the
stresses they face in combat. Passage at Arms is one of the classic novels of
military science fiction.

The plot by the Galactic Union’s Mercenary Guild against the Four Horsemen has
culminated in an invasion of Earth. Faced with an overwhelming force, the human
mercs had no choice. They’ve fled, leaving Sansar Enkh to go to the Mercenary
Guild headquarters on Capital Planet to stand trial for humanity. On the run,
Jim Cartwright and Nigel Shirazi have travelled to the Winged Hussars’ secret
base of New Warsaw, in an effort to convince Alexis Cromwell to join the fight,
while the other mercenaries who escaped the fall of Earth have gone to the
perceived safe haven of Karma.

ARE YOU SURE THIS IS A WORK OF FICTION?
I know it's fiction, but I learned more about government in this series. A very
clear story, without the dry reach of most books. This has always been my
favorite series. Turn this series into a TV show and you would have a winner.

EXCELLENT SET-UP TO BOOK 8
If you could sum up Empire's End in three words, what would they be?
Let me put it this way - you might as well buy book eight now because if you've
listened to all 7 books, there is no way in Hell that you aren't listening to
Book 8. That said, book 7 is really good. It just that you (like STEN) is left
feeling a little empty. Let's just hope that Book 8 will give us all the
strength to endure.
