NEPŘÍTEL ZA BRANAMI Kdysi mocné království Gilneas se ocitá v obležení zvenčí i zevnitř. Zatímco se podél jeho mohutné zdi shromažďují armády Opuštěných, dojde v hlavním městě k řadě brutálních vražd, které naznačují, že se mezi obyvateli skrývá daleko zlověstnější hrozba. Na scénu přichází Halford Ramsey, proslulý královský vyšetřovatel, který se nezastaví před ničím, aby zdánlivě nepolapitelného vraha dopadl. Při rozkrývání případu se Halford ocitá v ohnisku zájmu skutečných pachatelů vražd: worgenů, prokletých vlčích lidí, známých pouze z legend, a tajuplného „Vlčího kultu“, který je uctívá. Ramsey je záhy zatažen do deset tisíc let starého eposu, ve kterém nechybí láska, tragédie ani zrada, a který se točí kolem války prastarých nočních elfů proti démonické Plamenné legii. Halford, postižen kletbou worgenů, musí zkrotit zvíře zuřící v jeho nitru, a jednou provždy učinit přítrž ďábelskému spiknutí, jež hrozí zničením celého Gilneasu. Příběh plný záhad a bortících se říší vypráví Micky Neilson a James Waugh, s ilustracemi od Ludo Lullabiho a Tonyho Washingtona.

Království Lorearonu si snad ani na jeden rok neodpočine. Když zrovna lidé nevyhlásí válku orkům, tak jsou to šiky nemrtvých, které roznášejí na prohnilých kopytech lidská města, anebo tajemná partička bytostí z jiné dimenze, které nechtějí nic menšího, než převzít vládu nad světem. Válka není složena jen z odletujících hlav - válku dělají lidé. A právě osudům rytířů Řádu Stříbrné ruky, který se rozpadá na Bělostný úsvit a Šarlatové křižáky, se věnuje kniha World of Warcraft: Ashbringer. Všechno, co jste kdy chtěli vědět o osudu Azerothu, se v ní dočtete. Však za ní také stojí odborníci na slovo vzatí! Scénář napsal Micky Neilson z Blizzard Entertainment a za ilustrace jsou zodpovědní Ludo Lullabi a Tony Washington.

From The New York Times Bestselling author from the World of Warcraft universe, comes this engaging science fiction, military series. "A fun, fast adventure for space opera fans."--Publishers Weekly Aladhra doesn't run from anyone, not even the Collective. On the outskirts of earth's solar system, rule number one is to stay out of the Collective's way. They are ruthless, and powerful, and rule with an iron fist. They have no patience for Ridgerunners--the pirates and smugglers who thrive on the edges of their reach. But Aladhra's crew, the Pack, would rather run straight towards the Collective, guns blazing. Even wildly outmanned and outclassed, they would sacrifice everything for one shot at toppling the corrupt regime. When Aladhra and the Pack get their hands on next-generation technology, they set out to end the Collective once and for all. But the Collective knows they're coming. With a bounty on their heads that no Ridgerunner could resist, the Pack is surrounded by enemies, including former allies. What chance does one ship have against an entire solar system? "Fast-paced and clever, with plenty of twists and turns!" --Christie Golden, NYT Bestselling Author "A motley crew of interstellar pirates go up against ... well, the rest of the known universe. This is adventure and blasters and an underdog story told at light speed--Micky Neilson's handle on sharp dialogue and action kept me laughing, shouting, and cussing at the Law of Thermodynamics." --Cameron Dayton, bestselling author of Etherwalker and creative director for Call of Duty
