It has been twenty-seven long years since the last sunrise. For nearly three decades, vampires have waged war against humanity; building their eternal empire even as they tear down our own. Now, only a few tiny sparks of light endure in a sea of darkness.

The mad Shogun Yoritomo has been assassinated by the Stormdancer Yukiko, and the threat of civil war looms over the Shima Imperium. The toxic blood lotus flower continues to ravage the land, the deadlands splitting wider by the day. The machine-worshippers of the Lotus Guild conspire to renew the nation's broken dynasty and crush the growing rebellion simultaneously - by endorsing a new Shogun who desires nothing more than to see Yukiko dead.

As civil war sweeps across the Shima Imperium, the Lotus Guild unleashes their deadliest creation - a mechanical goliath, intended to unite the shattered Empire under a yoke of fear. Yukiko and Buruu are forced to take leadership of the rebellion, gathering new allies and old friends. But the ghosts of Buruu's past stand between them and the army they need, and Kin's betrayal has destroyed all trust among their allies.

On an island junkyard beneath a sky that glows with radiation, a deadly secret lies buried in the scrap. Seventeen-year-old Eve isn't looking for trouble - she's too busy looking over her shoulder. The robot gladiator she spent months building has been reduced to a smoking wreck, she's on the local gangster's wanted list, and the only thing keeping her grandpa alive is the money she just lost to the bookies. Worst of all, she's discovered she can somehow destroy machines with the power of her mind, and a bunch of puritanical fanatics are building a coffin her size because of it.

Kady, Ezra, Hanna, and Nik narrowly escaped with their lives from the attacks on Heimdall station and now find themselves crammed with 2,000 refugees on the container ship Mao. With the jump station destroyed and their resources scarce, the only option is to return to Kerenza - but who knows what they'll find seven months after the invasion? Meanwhile Kady's cousin, Asha, survived the initial BeiTech assault and has joined Kerenza's ragtag underground resistance.

Mia Corvere has found her place among the Blades of Our Lady of Blessed Murder, but many in the Red Church hierarchy think she’s far from earned it. Plying her bloody trade in a backwater of the Republic, she’s no closer to ending the men who destroyed her familia; in fact, she’s told directly that Consul Scaeva is off limits. But after a deadly confrontation with an old enemy, Mia's suspicions about the Red Church’s true motives begin to grow.

It’s just another day on the Scrap: lose the last of your credits at the WarDome, dodge the gangs and religious fanatics, discover you can destroy electronics with your mind, stumble upon the deadliest robot ever built.... When Eve finds the ruins of an android boy named Ezekiel in the scrap pile she calls home, her entire world comes crashing down. With her best friend and her robotic sidekick in tow, she and Ezekiel will trek across deserts of irradiated glass, battle cyborg assassins and scour abandoned megacities to save the ones she loves.

The Shima Imperium verges on the brink of environmental collapse; an island nation once rich in tradition and myth, now decimated by clockwork industrialization and the machine-worshipers of the Lotus Guild. The skies are red as blood, the land is choked with toxic pollution, and the great spirit animals that once roamed its wilds have departed forever.

Daughter of an executed traitor, Mia Corvere is barely able to escape her father's failed rebellion with her life. Alone and friendless, she hides in a city built from the bones of a dead god, hunted by the Senate and her father's former comrades. But her gift for speaking with the shadows leads her to the door of a retired killer and a future she never imagined.

Mia Corvere is only 10 years old when she is given her first lesson in death. Destined to destroy empires, the child raised in shadows made a promise on the day she lost everything: to avenge herself on those that shattered her world. But the chance to strike against such powerful enemies will be fleeting, and Mia must become a weapon without equal. Before she seeks vengeance, she must seek training among the infamous assassins of the Red Church of Itreya.

Die epische Rachegeschichte geht weiter. Nachdem Mia einen der Männer umgebracht hat, die für die Zerstörung ihrer Familie verantwortlich sind, bleiben noch zwei übrig: Kardinal Duomo und Konsul Scaeva. Beide sind jedoch vor der Öffentlichkeit abgeschirmt und für Mia unerreichbar. Schlimmer noch: Die Rote Kirche selbst scheint Scaeva zu schützen... Um an ihn heranzukommen, geht Mia ein großes Risiko ein: Sie kehrt der Kirche den Rücken und begibt sich in die Sklaverei, um als Gladiatorin an den Großen Spielen in Gottesgrab teilzunehmen.

Mia Corvere, destroyer of empires, has found her place among the Blades of Our Lady of Blessed Murder, but many in the Red Church ministry do not believe she has earned it. Her position is precarious, and she's still no closer to exacting revenge for the brutal death of her family. But after a deadly confrontation with an old enemy, Mia begins to suspect the motives of the Red Church itself.

Mia Corvere kennt nur ein Ziel: Rache. Als sie noch ein kleines Mädchen war, haben die Mächtigen des Reiches ihren Vater als Verräter an der Itreyanischen Republik hinrichten und ihre Mutter einkerkern lassen. Mia selbst wurde unter fremdem Namen vom alten Mercurio großgezogen. Mercurio ist jedoch kein gewöhnlicher Bürger der Republik, er bildet Attentäter für einen Assassinenorden aus, die Rote Kirche. Und Mia ist auch kein gewöhnliches Kind, sie ist eine Dunkelinn.

Mia Corvere, gladiatii, schiava fuggiasca e infame assassina, sta scappando. Dopo i grandi giochi di Godsgrave, finiti con il più audace omicidio nella storia della Repubblica itreyana, Mia si ritrova braccata. Potrebbe non uscire viva dalla Città di Ponti e Ossa. Il suo mentore Mercurio è ora nelle mani dei suoi nemici. La sua stessa famiglia la vuole morta. Ma sotto la città, un oscuro segreto è in attesa. La notte sta per scendere sulla Repubblica, forse per l'ultima volta.

Mia Corvere, distruttrice di imperi, ha trovato il suo posto tra le Lame di Nostra Signora del benedetto omicidio, ma sono in tanti all'interno della Chiesa Rossa a pensare che non se lo meriti. La sua posizione è fragile, e non si sta affatto avvicinando alla vendetta cui agogna. Ma dopo uno scontro letale con un vecchio nemico, Mia inizia a sospettare quali siano i veri moventi della Chiesa Rossa. Al termine dei grandi giochi di Godsgrave, Mia tradisce la Chiesa e si vende come schiava per avere la possibilità di mantenere la promessa che ha fatto il giorno in cui ha perso tutto.

Destinata a distruggere imperi, Mia Corvere ha solo dieci anni quando riceve la sua prima lezione sulla morte. Sei anni dopo, la bambina cresciuta tra le ombre si avvia a mantenere la promessa che ha fatto il giorno in cui ha perso tutto. Ma le possibilità di sconfiggere nemici così potenti sono davvero esili, e Mia è costretta a trasformarsi in un'arma implacabile. Deve mettersi alla prova tra i nemici - e gli amici - più letali, e sopravvivere alla protezione di assassini, mentitori e demoni, nel cuore stesso di una setta dedita all'omicidio.

Die Großen Spiele enden mit dem kühnsten Mord in der Geschichte der itreyanischen Republik - nur leider erwischt es den Falschen. Konsul Julius Scaeva überlebt das Attentat, und seine Macht im Staat ist nun beinahe grenzenlos. Genauso wie sein Hass auf Mia Corvere. Gejagt von den Assassinen der Roten Kirche und den Soldaten des Konsuls bricht Mia zu ihrer letzten großen Reise auf, um das Geheimnis ihrer Herkunft zu lüften und herauszufinden, wie sie Scaeva besiegen kann. Doch sie muss sich beeilen, denn das nächste Wahrdunkel naht, und Nacht fällt über die Republik.

Best friends have become enemies. Lovers have become strangers. And deciding whose side you're on could be the difference between life and death. For Eve and Lemon, discovering the truth about themselves - and each other - was too much for their friendship to take. But with the country on the brink of a new world war - this time between the BioMaas swarm at CityHive and Daedalus' army at Megopolis - loyalties will be pushed to the brink, unlikely alliances will form, and with them, betrayals.

Eve is torn between the memories of the girl she was, and the synthetic she's discovered herself to be. Together with her lifelike "siblings", Eve sets out to find the real Ana Monrova, whose DNA is the key to building an army of lifelikes. Meanwhile, Eve's best friend, Lemon, is coming to terms with a power that she has long denied - and that others want to harness as a weapon.

First, the bad news: an ancient evil—you know, your standard consume-all-life-in-the-galaxy deal—is about to be unleashed. The good news? Squad 312 is standing by to save the day. They've just got to take care of a few small distractions first. Like the clan of gremps who'd like to rearrange their favorite faces. And the cadre of illegit GIA agents with creepy flowers where their eyes used to be, who'll stop at nothing to get their hands on Auri. Then there's Kal's long-lost sister, who's not exactly happy to see her baby brother and has a Syldrathi army at her back.
