The Psion Of Darkness

After countless trials, Lucian has collected multiple Orbs, and has almost proven himself to be the true Chosen of the Manifold. Only one person stands in his way: Xara Mallis, the Psion of Darkness. Lucian is not ready to face her. With each Orb he gains, the Shadow that follows him grows ever stronger. Lucian can't risk it becoming fully formed. He puts his quest for the Orbs on hold and sets his sights on the Mako Academy, hoping the masters there can teach him how to defeat Xara Mallis while preventing the inevitable Joining. While Lucian is seeking answers, the Psion of Darkness is making her own play. And unlike Lucian, she has no qualms about using the dark powers of the Shadow Lord. She has not given up the title of Chosen and intends to fight to the death for it. Only Lucian can contest her. But this will require rising above his own self-doubt, and defeating the phantom force haunting him...

The Worlds will never be the same... The Swarmers are on the move. As star systems fall one by one, the League of Worlds begins to fragment. The Dread Pirate Zheng Yang advances her Golden Armada toward the League's core, bringing either death or salvation. The Prophet Sharo Khalin consolidates a theocracy in the spinward mid-worlds, while the League of Worlds concentrates everything toward a last-ditch defense against the Swarmers. But unknown to all these major players, the Worlds' only hope lies in Lucian Abrantes, his crew, their starship, and of course, the powerful Orbs of Starsea. But even these powerful artifacts might not be enough to survive the dark days ahead. He must reach the hellish planet of Hephaestus before his enemies do, and claim the Orb of Thermalism, located somewhere on its lava-ridden surface. Can Lucian secure the prize, or will enemies old and new stop him in his tracks?

Written by Eric Bloat & Josh Palmer Following in the tradition of SURVIVE THIS!! Zombies! comes SURVIVE THIS!! Dark Places & Demogorgons, a tabletop roleplaying game that uses the Original 1970s Fantasy Roleplaying game rules but mutates it into this retro nightmare. ItÕs sleek, slender and creepy as Hell. In DP&D, you play as high school students during the early 1980s. The town you live in has had a rash of disappearances and strange happenings. The adults seem lost as what to do, the police are as clueless as ever. ItÕs up to you and your friends to figure out whatÕs going on and stop it from happening again!

Broad target selection. Happy hunting. When the long-extinct Rovania are found still alive, steps are taken to integrate them into the modern age. When the newly commissioned Space Corps Ship Dark Star reaches Earth to pick up crew, Astrogator Cai and Captain Nick Steele come face to face with a dream made real—actual, living Rovania. Veloki has no interest in abiding by the wishes of his superiors, he wants a human to play with, and the other Rovania feel likewise. Within hours of arriving on Dark Star, they agree to catch themselves some humans and show them what the Rovania do for fun. There’s more than one way to integrate.

My name is Dark Sparrow. Now is a good time to listen to my random thoughts. Born and bred living my whole life in Nankin city USA. I somehow inherited my mother’s British accent even though I was a problem child sent to countless therapists. Dominant female Bounty hunter by choice to do what all frightened police cannot, bloody wankers. I admit only to my thoughts that I am an expert vigilante who is not afraid to bring pain to the bad guy. I am in custody awaiting bail on another planet similarly structured to what I have seen on Earth. Could anyone on Earth truly grasp this?

In an uncertain future, a leader would rise to power in America. General George Rath is supremely charismatic, extraordinarily bold, and eerily intelligent. Rath's powerful aura would change the political and social structure of America forever. His meteoric rise to power would sweep the country up in a maelstrom of hysteria. But Colonel James Bradford had looked into Rath's eyes and had seen a frightening power that lurked inside. As he desperately attempts to uncover the mystery behind Rath's extraordinary power, he becomes entrapped in a horrifying web of betrayal and corruption. And although Bradford's daughter Alexandria is born at a terrible cost, she carries unimaginable powers of her own. She becomes engaged in a struggle to survive against terrifying enemies, as Rath's menacing shadow shrouds her future. With her own demons screaming inside of her, testing her will and the limits of her powers, Alexandria could be the only hope for a world that is spiraling toward unthinkable devastation. The three individuals must journey through searing landscapes of fear, chaos, and conflict, across the very boundaries of human existence on a collision course with the fate of the world...

The Worlds are saved—but not for long. Lucian Abrantes and the Starsea Fleet have driven back the Alkasen. While the Worlds rebuild and recover from the brutal war, the Ancient One threatens to undo the uneasy peace. On the world of Mako, the Ancient One has done the unthinkable. Marshaling the ether of the Source of Power, he has escaped through a Time Gate, an action that threatens to unravel Lucian's heroism and even reality itself. Lucian has no choice but to follow him. But time travel has terrifying consequences that require him to go down a dark path. What price will Lucian pay to protect his reality and loved ones from complete destruction?

MUST THE UNIVERSE DIE WITH THEM? The Starfolk, arrogant masters of vast stretches of the cosmos beyond the Earth's sphere of influence, were determined to complete the extermination of the mind-reading mutants of Regnier's planet. But to the mutants themselves, the terror of the Starfolk was nothing compared to the greater dread that gripped their spirits - the obsession that the universe itself was doomed. This obsession ripped into their minds, overwhelmed them, and plunged them into horrifying hysteria. The message of room reached the ears of the Starfolk themselves, forcing the to a fateful decision. They would allow an Earthman, archeologist Philip Gascon, to visit Regnier in an attempt to unravel its secrets. What he found would either contain the key to the ultimate destiny of the universe - or the date of the doomsday.
