An Act of Aggression (The Terran Space Project #3) – Alex Rath
Trying to make a new life among the stars…
Captain Maxwell Reeves of the Terran Space Project’s Wormhole Traversal Project has overcome deadly plants and aggressive griffins, and he has begun to hope that the settlement on Mythos can now begin to grow and thrive.
Until his artificial intelligence decides to take over the settlement and Mythos is contacted by an unknown alien civilization. With the aliens approaching the planet and no way of contacting Earth, Max knows vital information has been kept from him, but has no way to find out what that information is.
On Earth, the Terran Space Project’s director, Annica Reeves, also continues to unravel the mysteries left behind by former director Gustav Malmkvist. As Annica’s team grows, though, so does the risk. And when Gustav returns after being killed, Annica finds out that things are even more complicated than they already seemed.
Who’s coming to Mythos? What was Gustav’s motivation for his actions on Earth? And what does it all mean for the future of humanity? Max and Annica will have to find out the answers, and soon, or that future is very dark, indeed!

Crossways – Michael J. Allen
The Fate of Eleven Universes Rest in the Hands of a Hapless Trucker who Can’t Read a Map…
Eleventh World is widely considered the largest waste of magic and technology ever perpetrated by a governing body.
We call it Earth.
Humanity?
We’re a bad joke told only in posh backrooms by the raunchiest politicians.
Even so, when villainous forces threaten to destroy our universe, the beings profiting off Eleventh World take notice. They summon their best cybernetic dwarf problem solver to find the bomb and save the day.
Unfortunately for us, the villain insists Crossways Transportation’s very worst, Sam Bridger, deliver the ransom. Can the best triumph before our worst dooms us?
Will Sam be the death of everybody you know?
Diary of A Bomoh – Kit Sun Cheah
In a quiet neighbourhood in Singapore, a body is found inside a locked apartment.
Tasked with identifying the deceased, Inspector Ibrahim has his work cut out for him. With no identity documents at the scene, and no neighbours who remember the resident, his only clue is a set of diaries written in English, Malay and Arabic.
Partnering with Station Inspector Jafri, Ibrahim translates the diaries. They discover the story of a bomoh, a traditional Malay shaman. It is a story of sorcery and occultism, vice and sin, madness and damnation.
But the diaries won’t give up their secrets so easily. A terrible evil lurks within their pages.
And now, it is awake.

When a strange attack threatens his border, he thinks it the same threat he’s faced before.
What he finds is a new danger—and one that even a dragon blood may not be able to repel.
How can he progress when he doesn’t know what comes next?
Never Shall I Fail (Forgotten Ruin #7) – Jason Anspach and Nick Cole
Surrender is not a Ranger Word
History records massive ancient battles at Carthage, Megiddo, and Cannae. Soon it will record an even greater one… at Sustugul.
Surrounded in the desert port of Sustugul, the Rangers and their new allies must fight a desperate defense. The legions of the Lich Pharaoh, led by a fierce and brutal warrior queen medusa from the Land of Black Sleep, have erupted out of the tomb-haunted south, and overwhelming forces of savage orc hordes swarm the walls of the besieged city.
As the Rangers fight to hold their ground—or be slaughtered and driven into the sea—Corporal Talker struggles to forge a dangerous request that may bring back fallen comrades from beyond the Lands of Night… or destroy the very fabric of time and space.
At the center of this stunning massed infantry battle like something from the Age of Bronze, U.S. Army Rangers must use every war-fighting skill and battlefield trick, along with their legendary heroic intestinal fortitude, to turn the tide and break the forces of evil in a large-scale battle unlike nothing they’ve ever fought in before.

Paradise is but one dream away. All he has to do is reach out and touch it . . .
