A silent war has already begun. And humanity’s survival hangs by a thread. The Bertram Ramsay Space Station was meant to be Earth’s salvation—a final lifeboat for seven million survivors fleeing extinction. But the mission is falling apart.

In 1969, during the crux of the Vietnam war, Jack Tagger is on the run. As the war in Southeast Asia rages on, he has made the moral decision to resist the draft. In his effort to avoid the authorities and the war, he seeks refuge on a desolate coastal barrier island where unbeknownst to him, while avoiding one war, he finds himself unwittingly caught in the middle of another deadly land-war between two very powerful men at Sunset Beach, North Carolina.

Extinction is almost inevitable. Twenty-six billion lives will be lost. Just nine million will survive—on the Bertram Ramsay, a space station destined to leave Earth’s orbit in a matter of months. Jaxon Leith is one of the chosen. Plucked from the Bleeds—London’s towering slums—he enters Compression, the final, brutal phase of training before life in space. But salvation has enemies. The Acolytes of Gaia have infiltrated the evacuation, determined to see humanity erased. And as launch day nears, Jaxon finds himself caught in a silent war that could doom the mission before it ever leaves Earth.

A simple theft, a kingdom in turmoil, a diety imprisoned. When master thief Aren Kesik pickpockets a reality-transmuting bracelet, not even death can stop the steel-masked Charodin—the Overlord's secret police—from seizing it back. Thrust into a revolution he didn't want, while mourning the brutal execution of the only family he's ever known, Aren joins two clever street urchins, and an exile atoning for his late father's forbidden magic, to reunite a fractured god and rescue Aren's re-emergent adopted brother from eternal subjugation.

Annabelle Lake thought she recognised the Ford Fiesta waiting outside her school, and the driver in it. She was wrong. Her body is discovered some time later, dangling from a swing in a local playground on Canvey Island. The post-mortem shows she’s been fed, clothed and kept warm. That whoever was responsible had looked after her. But when another girl goes missing and is found in a similar fashion, that’s where the similarities end.
