Scifi Bundle 6 Books

Here are six exciting scifi books from genre author, Adam Drake. Ranging from LitRPG to post-apocalyptic to space opera. Shadow Gambit (Shadow For Hire Book 1) An impossible quest for a legendary item. I love questing for loot. And the more difficult the quest, the greater the reward. So when I'm offered a chance to retrieve the ultimate treasure of all, I signed up. Yet no one warned me the task would be impossible. Against overwhelming odds I'm also expected to defeat an ancient evil - one with the power of a god. But you know what? Some loot is worth risking it all. Shadow Hunting (Shadow For Hire Book 2) The most powerful player in the gaming universe wants me dead. Now I have a price on my head with tens of thousands of bounty hunters out to kill me. But I can only run for so long. I need to put an end to this madness once and for all. If I'm going to die, it will be on my own terms. The tables must be turned. Time to go hunting. Shadow Wars (Shadow For Hire Book 3) I'm a loot-hunting adventurer, not a general. I play online MMOs for exciting quests, to level my character and find cool loot. Not to lead armies. But now I have to fight a battle to get the quest item I desperately need. I've never commanded troops or built bases or strategized an attack more complex than a dungeon raid. When it comes to war, I'm a complete noob. Yet, defeat isn't an option. I've got to win or everything I've worked so hard for will be lost. So, they want a war? I'll give them one. Shadow Blade (Shadow For Hire Book 4) A hallowed weapon hidden in a jungle hell. Forced to prove my worthiness to an elite group of players, I must earn the right to enter one of the most notorious locations in the game. The Emerald Caldera has a fearsome reputation for chewing up would-be adventurers and quickly sending them back to the newbie zone. Filled with dungeon temples, monstrous beasts and dark-magic cults, the jungles of this mysterious island are deserving of respect. And I must plunge headlong into them because it's here where I can find the next elusive item in my Legendary Armor Set: The Shadow Blade Blackout: Day One The nightmare begins. In one fell swoop, civilization is changed forever. No one is unaffected, few are prepared. Some become survivors, others - easy prey. Only the strong, and crazy, will survive. Through the blood and chaos, civilization will be permanently transformed. And it all begins with one terrifying moment, when the lights go out and never come back on. Blackout. Escape to the Fringe A pair of outlaws searching for riches. A stolen ship with a secret cargo. A strange alien with bizarre abilities. When Ash and Femke Quinly decide to steal a transport ship from the local criminal syndicate, their troubles have just begun. With enemies in relentless pursuit, and their options dwindling, an already dangerous situation becomes more futile. But when the universe is gunning for you, there is one insane option only the truly desperate can take: They must escape to the Fringe! litrpg, fantasy, gamelit, rpg, cyberpunk, female mc, female protagonist, series, action, adventure, video games, mmo, role playing games, vr, virtual reality, wuxia, cultivation, science fiction, bundle, collection, omnibus, space opera, thriller, series, space ship, alien, aliens, space, dystopian, post apocalyptic, horror, series, survivor, bunker, emp

The Book of Deacon is the first book of The Book of Deacon series by Joseph R. Lallo. Myranda Celeste’s world has been built on a legacy of bloodshed. For more than a century, her homeland the Northern Alliance has fought the Kingdom of Tressor in what has come to be known as the Perpetual War. While her people look upon the conflict with reverence, Myranda’s hate for the war has made her an outcast. When she finds a precious sword among the equipment of a fallen warrior, she believes her luck may have changed. Little does she imagine that the treasure will draw her into an adventure of wizards and warriors, soldiers and rebels, and beasts both noble and monstrous. The journey will teach her much about her potential, about the origins of the war, and about the threat her world truly faces. Will Myranda unlock the secret of bringing peace once and for all, or will the world be lost to the Perpetual War?

Hailed as “one of the finest achievements of modern science fiction” by The New York Times Book Review, The Hyperion Cantos is a triumphant odyssey into the heart of space and time. Through four riveting novels, Dan Simmons masterfully weaves such influences as classical mythology, romantic poetry, and far-future philosophy into an ambitiously conceived and unfailingly entertaining epic. Now, for the first time, this entire masterpiece of the imagination is available in one extraordinary eBook bundle: HYPERION THE FALL OF HYPERION ENDYMION THE RISE OF ENDYMION On the planet Hyperion, beyond the reach of galactic law, waits a creature called the Shrike. There are those who worship it. There are those who fear it. And there are those who have vowed to destroy it. On the eve of Armageddon, with the known universe at war, seven pilgrims set forth on a final voyage to Hyperion seeking the answers to the unsolved riddles of existence. As the Shrike anticipates their mission, each traveler nurtures a desperate hope—and harbors a terrible secret. And one may hold the fate of humanity in his or her hands. Praise for The Hyperion Cantos “For vastness of scope, clarity of detail and seriousness of purpose, Simmons’s epic narrative is on a par with Isaac Asimov’s Foundation series, Frank Herbert’s Dune books, Gene Wolfe’s multipart Book of the New Sun and Brian Aldiss’s Helliconia trilogy.”—The New York Times Book Review “Dan Simmons has brilliantly conceptualized a future 700 years distant. In sheer scope and complexity it matches, and perhaps even surpasses, those of Isaac Asimov and James Blish.”—The Washington Post Book World “State of the art science fiction . . . This work will be that against which all future works will have to be measured, in the same way, in their time, that Asimov’s Foundation series and Le Guin’s The Left Hand of Darkness set new standards.”—Asimov’s “Simmons’ own genius transforms space opera into a new kind of poetry.”—The Denver Post “A major work . . . Simmons doesn’t just promise; he delivers.”—Science Fiction Chronicle

When Rosalen Maldonado tinkers with the derelict freighter, she's just hoping to prove she deserves a scholarship to University.

They all have their private reasons for hiding aboard and lives they are seeking to escape, but if the accidental crew can't work together and learn to trust each other, they'll die together, victims of a computer that doesn't realize the war ended decades before any of them were even born.

If you're fighting immortals who always get back up, you'd better have a way to do the same thing. Otherwise, it's lights out... When you're a soldier genetically enhanced to the point of near immortality and you fight a mortal soldier resurrected with the pilfered blood of your people, friendship never enters the equation. But what if the enemy you despise holds the key to your salvation? Here's what readers say: ★I shouldn't like Pietas. He's arrogant and pretends he's uncaring, but he's one of the most fascinating characters I've read recently. ★I loved this story! A scifi bromance like nothing else I’ve ever read. ★Pietas – the Ultra of awesome powers, both mental and physical – is left helpless and doomed by humans and a betrayer from his own kind. Six – a once-human ghost who should be the sworn enemy of any Ultra – saves Pietas from a destiny worse than physical death. The two are then marooned together on a distant, most likely deserted planet. ★The Ultra has vowed never to accept help from anyone even close to human. That vow is challenged by his need to survive. The ghost has pledged to destroy all Ultras on sight. Watching Pietas and Six grapple through this deep dilemma was nothing short of beautiful for me. If these adversaries can navigate the chasm of hatred, distrust and male ego between them, maybe there’s hope for our own fractured world. ★I was...immersed into a setting where every character is dealing with decisions, and where the wrong one is like having a jar of nitroglycerine and dropping it at his or her own feet. Characters to root for, and a story that satisfies all of the criteria of what makes up an excellent novel. ~ Read the Bringer of Chaos Bundle 1, containing the first two books in the ongoing Bringer of Chaos saga plus a bonus novelette, Lights Out. Think Enemy Mine meets Lethal Weapon on a deserted, sci-fi world.
