Nobody knows the seedy underbelly of Las Vegas like Daniel Faust, a sorcerer for hire and ex-gangster who uses black magic and bullets to solve his clients' problems. When an old man comes seeking vengeance for his murdered granddaughter, what looks like a simple job quickly spirals out of control. Soon Daniel stands in the crossfire between a murderous porn director; a corrupt cop with a quick trigger finger; and his own former employer, a racket boss who isn't entirely human.

It's a bad time for unfinished business to come back and haunt him, forcing Daniel Faust to confront his tortured history and the family he left behind. It's an even worse time for his surviving foes to join forces and take deadly aim at Faust's throne. Toss in a syndicate operative from a parallel world, a deranged, half-demon assassin hungry for a duel, and the shadowy machinations of the King of Worms, and the stage is set for a showdown under the neon lights of Vegas.

Las Vegas, Stadt der Sünde – und der Dämonen, wie Daniel Faust, Gangster und Magier, nur allzu gut weiß. Als er angeheuert wird, um Rache an den Mördern einer jungen Frau zu nehmen, gerät Daniel ins Netz einer Intrige, in deren Zentrum niemand geringeres als der Prinz der Hölle steht. Jemand, der Faust heißt, sollte eigentlich wissen, was passiert, wenn man sich mit Dämonen einlässt. Doch Caitlin, die rechte Hand des Höllenfürsten, ist klug und verführerisch – und so lässt er sich breitschlagen, einem uralten Artefakt nachzuspüren, für das jeder magisch Begabte in Las Vegas über Leichen gehen würde.

The Aftermath of a stunning victory—especially an unexpected, complete, and final victory—should be high-fives all around, listening to politicians give boring congratulatory speeches, and a well-deserved rest for the Merry Band of Pirates. Yes, the galaxy is still a freakin' mess, but that is nothing new, and for a change, that can be someone else's problem. Until, you know, something really bad happens, and only the Pirates can deal with the problem... Or not.

Walt Longmire besinnt sich auf die knallharte Gerechtigkeit des alten amerikanischen Westens.

Jan Fabel, Chef der Mordkommission in Hamburg, hat sich verändert. Vor zwei Jahren ist er beinahe gestorben, als ein Mann ihn anschoss. Er hatte eine Nahtod-Erfahrung, die ihn noch mehr zu einem intuitiv arbeitenden Polizisten werden lässt. Als bei Bauarbeiten eine Leiche gefunden wird, ahnt er sofort, dass es sich um die sterblichen Überreste von Monika Krone handelt, die vor fünfzehn Jahren spurlos verschwand. Wenig später beginnt eine unheimliche Mordserie.

After the Renegade mission by the crew of the starship Flying Dutchman, the UN Expeditionary Force thought Earth was safe for hundreds of years, at least. After there was trouble on the home front and the president had to authorize a nuclear strike on an American city, UNEF decided they did need the Merry Band of Pirates again. So, the Flying Dutchman is sent out on a simple recon mission. But for the pirates, nothing is ever simple, and their mission will become Armageddon.

Colonel Joe Bishop made a promise and he's going to keep it; taking the captured alien starship Flying Dutchman back out. He doesn't agree when the UN decides to send almost 70 elite Special Operations troops, hotshot pilots, and scientists with him; the mission is a fool's errand he doesn't expect to ever return from. At least, this time, the Earth is safe, right? Not so much.

Die Ruhar griffen uns am Columbus Day an. Wir trieben auf unserer kleinen blauen Murmel durch den Kosmos–arglos, wie die amerikanischen Ureinwohner im Jahr 1492. Dann tauchten am Horizont Raumschiffe einer technisch überlegenen Spezies auf. Und–BAM!–war die gute alte Zeit vorbei. Jene Zeit, als wir Menschen uns nur gegenseitig töteten. Also Columbus Day–Kolumbustag. Das passt.

Ein Mann, ein Wort. Seit Colonel Joe Bishop unverhofft zum Weltraumretter wurde, geht in seinem Leben so einiges drunter und drüber. Aber er hat ein Versprechen gegeben, und er wird alles tun, um es zu erfüllen–koste es, was es wolle. Sein Auftrag: das gekaperte Raumschiff "Fliegender Holländer" zurückzubringen. Das Problem: der Beschluss der UNO, fast siebzig sogenannte Spezialisten mit auf die heikle Mission zu schicken.

The Wizard's Council of Tarador was supposed to tell young Koren Bladewell that he is a wizard. They were supposed to tell everyone that he is not a jinx, that all the bad things that happen around him are because he can't control the power inside him, power he doesn't know about. The people of his village, even his parents, are afraid of him, afraid he is cursed. That he is a dangerous, evil jinx.

Disaster. There was no other word to describe how Operation Olympic had changed in a flash from a triumph to the worst failure the Merry Band of Pirates had ever experienced. A failure that meant the fight was over. Unless the Pirates could perform a miracle, without Skippy.
