Pułkownik Ridge Zirkander nie jest co prawda wzorem wojskowego profesjonalizmu, ale jako najlepszy pilot armii iskandyjskiej, cieszy się pewną pobłażliwością ze strony przełożonych. A przynajmniej dopóki nie zada ciosu w nos niewłaściwemu dyplomacie, wskutek czego otrzymuje nowe rozkazy: oto teraz ma objąć dowództwo nad odludnym więzieniem w górach Lodowych Ostrzy.

Nie wspominając nawet o tej dziwnej kobiecie, która pojawia się tuż przed jego przybyciem.

She's barely wrapped her mind around these strange new developments when another monster arrives, this time in Sedona, Arizona.

McCall Richter works as a skip tracer, tracking down criminals, con men, and people who stop making payments on their fancy new spaceships.

The only witness to the crime? The junkyard dog next door.

Before tragedy left her crippled, Artemis "Temi" Sidaris was a world-class tennis player at the height of her career. The sport was her passion, her dream, and all she ever wanted to do.

Die Vollstreckerin Amaranthe Lokdon ist wirklich gut in ihrem Job. Ihr Revier liegt in der Hauptstadt des Reichs, in der dampfbetriebene Straßenbahnen und Maschinen das Straßenbild prägen.

Amaranthes Aufklärungsrate ist exzellent und ihre Führung tadellos. Trotzdem wird sie immer wieder übergangen, wenn es um eine Beförderung geht.

Eine Macht, die nicht länger verborgen bleiben kann ... Trip befindet sich auf der wichtigsten Mission seines Lebens. In Begleitung von Captain Kaika, der ...

Nach Tausenden Jahren erwachen die Drachen. Und sie wollen herrschen. Trip war schon immer etwas seltsam – mit Vorahnungen, die zu genau sind, um sie zu erklären. Da Magie in Iskandia gefürchtet und verboten ist, hat er sein ganzes Leben lang alles getan, um seine Gabe zu verbergen. Denn als Junge musste er die Hinrichtung seiner Mutter mitansehen. Ihr Verbrechen: Hexerei. Daher ist es verständlich, dass Trip nichts mit der Macht zu tun haben will, die in ihm schlummert und ständig droht, sich bemerkbar zu machen.

Cuando la teniente Caslin Ahn se unió a la escuadrilla Lobo, estaba preparada para la posibilidad de morir algún día en acto de servicio. Para lo que no está preparada es para que la derriben, para que su propia gente la dé por muerta y para que la arrastren al imperio de la Cofah como prisionera de guerra.

Puede que el coronel Ridge Zirkander no sea un modelo de conducta, pero sus superiores están dispuestos a perdonar sus faltas porque es el mejor piloto de combate del ejército iskandiano. Sin embargo, su suerte está a punto de cambiar: tras romperle la nariz a un diplomático, sus superiores le mandan tomar el mando de una prisión minera en las inhóspitas montañas Hojas de Hielo. Zirkander jamás ha tenido que coordinar nada mayor que un escuadrón de aviadores, ¿qué va a hacer al frente de una fortaleza llena de violadores y asesinos?

Sardelle Terushan, curandera y hechicera, debía pasar desapercibida. La magia está prohibida en Iskandia, y los que la usan acaban ahogados, fusilados o asesinados de alguna manera u otra. ¿El problema? Se ha enamorado de un héroe nacional: el coronel Ridge Zirkander, un as de la aviación que todo el mundo reconoce, empezando por el rey.

Le colonel Ridge Zirkander est loin d'être un officier modèle mais étant le meilleur pilote de chasse de l'armée iskandienne, il jouit d'une certaine indulgence de la part de ses supérieurs. Jusqu'au jour où il casse le nez du mauvais diplomate, ce qui lui vaut de recevoir une nouvelle affectation : le commandement d'un bagne minier dans les montagnes inhospitalières des Lames de Glace. Une forteresse enneigée où sont détenus des meurtriers et des violeurs. Sans même parler de cette femme étrange, apparue juste avant qu'il arrive à son poste.

Il colonnello Ridge Zirkander non è un modello di professionalità militare: ha la tendenza a esprimere esattamente quello che pensa e il suo curriculum ha abbastanza demeriti da tappezzare lo scafo di un dirigibile. Allo stesso tempo, è il miglior pilota di caccia dell'esercito iskandiano e, per questo, è abituato a un po' di indulgenza da parte dei suoi superiori. Tutto cambia, però, quando Ridge dà un pugno sul naso al diplomatico sbagliato e si ritrova con nuovi ordini: prendere il comando di una remota miniera-prigione tra le inospitali Montagne delle Lame di Ghiaccio.
