After eight years alone on Earth 2, Geddy Starheart is ready to get off. Off-world, that is. But before he can, someone steals his ship. His quest to find it takes him on a hilarious, galaxy-spanning adventure with his only friend--the ancient alien trapped in his head. Geddy rose through the ranks of a shady auction house dealing in stolen goods. When it got too dicey, he fled to Earth 2 and changed his identity. Years later, he watched the last transport leave for Earth 3. Everyone figured him dead, and he was good with that.

Trouble is dead. Long live trouble. Killing the leader of a violent cult was supposed to make the city a safer place, but instead it created a power imbalance that’s left a deadly war raging in the streets of Bulari. When Willem Jaantzen is approached for help by local casino magnate Phaera D, he has the sinking feeling the only way to end this war is to betray the people he loves the most. And he’s starting to suspect that Phaera wants more from him than just his help. Whatever decision he makes feels like the wrong one.

Willem Jaantzen didn't ask to be a hero. He just wants to keep his family safe in the shifting sands of Bulari's underground - and to get the city's upper crust to acknowledge just how far he's come since his days as an orphaned street kid. With his businesses thriving and his dark past swept into the annals of history, it looks like he has everything he could ever ask for. Until, that is, his oldest rival turns up murdered and the blame - and champagne - begins to flow.

The war in the north is coming to an end, but more and more it seems neither brother, Arthur nor Sebastian, will end as the true victor. The priest Luther rallies an army of Karak, his aims unclear. Further north, Cyric continues to proclaim himself a god, and his followers are many. Caught between two enemies, Darius and Jerico must stand together to prevent the destruction of everything they hold dear.

Having fled the defeat at the Green Gulch, Darius and Jerico, believing themselves the last two paladins of their kind, must separate once more in order to survive. While Jerico rushes to the aid of Lord Arthur and the siege at his Castle of Caves, Darius travels east, determined to remove the bounty on his head. But on his way, he encounters a young priest following an older way of faith, whose desire for their return will risk destruction upon all the North. Sacrifice must be made in blood.

As the twenty-first century approaches there is increasing popular and scholarly interest in the Book of Revelation. In this comprehensive CD program, Rev. Daniel Harrington uncovers what this book really says, and explores it as a part of our religious heritage and as a rich research for Christian theology.

Haunted space stations? Puzzling totems? Cursed relics? No job's too bizarre for the crew of the Nanshe. Lasadi doesn't like strangers on her ship, but she'll need a bigger crew if she's going to steal a mysterious artifact from a dead pirate's long-lost space station. She takes a chance on a charming grifter named Raj, along with a skilled hacker and her genius little brother. And it's . . . nice? If Lasadi isn't careful, she's going to start enjoying having a crew aboard.

Each mystery has a five-part introduction after which the traditional prayers are prayed. Since the mysteries are a little longer than versions that only announce the name of the mystery, you may choose to only do two or three at a time. But you will know how best to pray with them. We are very excited to have this resource available to pray with at home, work, on retreats, or anywhere you pray. St. Ignatius, pray for us. Immaculate Heart of Mary, pray for me!

Helping a holy order find a missing sister should be a simple enough job—and Ruby owes the Aymaya Apostles everything after they took her and her brother in as children.

Something sinister is lurking beneath the surface of whatever Kitty and the holy sister are caught up in, and the skills of the entire crew are put to the test when they go head-to-head with the ultimate con artist.

When a ghost from Lasadi’s past hires the crew of the Nanshe to find a crashed plane with mysterious origins, they take the job despite the troubling client. The good news? The cover story is Lasadi's childhood dream: flying in the Liluri Star Run, a wildly popular off-the-grid race through the Liluri Mountains. Soaring through emerald jungle canyons in search of their prize—and the fabled Blood River—this job has the potential to do more than net these five misfits a payday. It could turn them into a real crew.

From the mind of James Johnson comes a chilling psychological thriller that unravels the boundary between listener and text. I Didn’t Write This is not a typical horror story—it’s a slow-burning descent into self-awareness, told one impossible chapter at a time. Each chapter feels more familiar than the last. Until you stop wondering what’s happening… and start wondering when it started. If you’ve ever seen something in the mirror that didn’t feel right, this book is for you.

The battles never end for Admiral James Henry. After months of negotiations, galactic alliance talks between the Independent Systems Federation and the Terran Coalition have stalled. There’s no urgency to strike a deal since the antidote nullified the Jalm’tar Empire’s Curall threat. But Jim suspects the usurper on the Jalm’tar throne still has a decisive hand to play in war games.

The Alliance dangles by its fingertips over the abyss of oblivion as the Zelnads rev up for their grand finale of destruction.

Find the secret sauce to glue a fractured galaxy back together. No pressure.

In Fleet Feat, the electrifying fifth installment of C. P. James's Reassembly series, the newly formed galactic Alliance teeters on the verge of war. But until Geddy and the crew find the Zelnad base, there's nobody to fight. Given the sorry state of the fleet, that's probably a good thing. Hope arrives in the form of an eccentric loner who may hold the key to freeing hosts from Zelnad control—if only he can do so without killing both parties. As Geddy grapples with a favor for his ex-girlfriend gone awry, he's thrust into a whirlwind of danger and deception.

Can Samson rally his friends and forge new alliances to protect the Royal Academy and the magical nexus that sustains it? Or will Narathara's wrath consume Norvindor in a fiery apocalypse? Will Samson find his way back to the real world, or embrace his new life as a hero in this epic finale and live happily ever after?

Science fiction at its sense-of-wonder best. A wild chase through the billion worlds of the Tenth Millennium in search of a mythical weapon that could save civilization—or doom it!

Admiral James Henry faces a serious dilemma. Curall has already made deep inroads throughout Independent Space. While distracted fighting the League, the Jalm’tar Empire waged a clandestine war using the highly addictive substance—with far deadlier consequences. Billions across the galaxy face an excruciating death without a constant supply of the drug for which there is no known antidote. To keep the tap flowing, one planet’s leadership intends to roll the dice and adopt the Jalm’tar’s terms despite their onerous constraints.

Admiral James Henry has traded a war of weapons for one cloaked in diplomacy as leader of the fledgling Independent Systems Fleet. Fighting alongside the Terran Coalition to rid the Sagittarius Arm of tyranny was the easy part. Now forced into the political arena, he’s never missed the freewheeling spacer’s life more.
