Book Description

For too long, the people of the Lyran Commonwealth have only reacted to attacks by their enemies. Now, Archon Melissa Steiner launches an intricate gambit that will secure the safety of her subjects—and secure her own power against those who wish to take it... Trillian Steiner has always been a loyal warrior and supporter of the archon. But when she is ordered to strike against the Free Worlds League, victory is not her only goal. The leader of the campaign—the politician and business magnate Duke Vedet Brewster—for years has been consolidating power within the Commonwealth. And now the archon has decided to rid herself of two threats with one move. For Trillian is there not to ensure success but, through a web of machinations, to guarantee the duke's downfall—before the worlds he conquers become the foundation of an attempt to take over the Commonwealth. And in the chaos of war and the never-ending struggle for power, Trillian's strength and devotion will be sorely tested ...

Book Description

Newly elected Exarch Jonah Levin is still trying to come to terms with the responsibilities of his office. With his recent discovery of treachery in The Republic's Senate, he can trust very few people—and not even his own Paladins have been immune to murderous intrigue . . . Tensions are heating up between Exarch Levin and the senators determined to fight what they call the “injustice being done to The Republic's government.” Some are even agitating for Levin's censure—a move that could accomplish the same thing as the recent attempted coup that killed legendary Paladin Victor Steiner-Davion. One of The Republic's last hopes is the summit of Inner Sphere leaders gathering on Terra. Ostensibly a tribute to the assassinated Steiner-Davion, it also has the potential to halt the escalating violence of the last few years. And although Victor would not have wanted his death to be the cause of more political maneuvering, Levin knows that the great man would not begrudge The Republic this one final service. Now, if only it isn’t too late . . .

Book Description

Skye struggles to rise from the ashes of the last Jade Falcon assault. Tara Campbell’s Highlanders are limping back from battles fought all across the Prefecture. And Anastasia Kerensky’s Steel Wolves have disappeared again. It’s a matter of when—not if—the Falcons will renew their brutal assault, and Skye is unprepared. . . . On the world of Nusakan, Landgrave Jasek Kelswa-Steiner appears to be Skye’s only chance for salvation. Gathering his Stormhammers, he prepares to throw his force into the teeth of the Falcon advance. But will the cure be worse than the disease? Jasek passionately advocates a return to House Steiner, a political movement his father just as passionately opposes. Unfortunately for the Republic, desperate times call for desperate alliances—and the Jade Falcon force is still spoiling for battle. Clan Jade Falcon will not rest until Skye is conquered . . . or reduced to a charred cinder.

Book Description

Centuries ago, Minoru Kurita abandoned his noble name and heritage when he was adopted by Clan Nova Cat, who utilized Minoru’s psychic abilities to create a powerful new breed of warrior—the Mystic Caste, a secretive, spiritual branch of the Clan led by their exalted Oathmaster. From the moment Kisho left the Iron Womb, he has been trained in the Mystic Caste with one goal in mind: to forge his entire being into a tool. Not simply as a weapon to fight the Clan’s enemies, but as an instrument of strength to bring glory to Clan Nova Cat through his visions. Now, he has been chosen by the Oathmaster himself to be his protégé—and possible successor. But Kisho’s great pride masks a greater deception: he does not believe any of it. He has walked the path all his life, yet he has no faith in the gifts the Mystic Caste supposedly possesses—and he is running out of time. For Kisho is about to be sent into battle with his warrior brethren to fight alongside the forces of the controversial Warlord Katana Tormak—and the faith he has so long denied may be the only thing that can save them.

Book Description

Sea Fox Clansmen are space-bound, nomadic warrior-merchants who live and die aboard their naval vessels, going planetside only to negotiate a new deal or for combat: often the same thing for a Fox. Divided into five autonomous Khanates, they are led by the Khan of all Clan Sea Fox. Their mission: to make deals and acquire the revenue needed to expand Sea Fox’s honor, glory, and power. . . . For more than a decade, ovKhan Sha Clarke has watched his Spina Khanate achieve greater wealth and fame than any other. A quiet passion drives the MechWarrior to free Spina Khanate from the shackles of Clan Sea Fox—no matter the cost. . . . A MechWarrior fiercely loyal to Clan Sea Fox, ovKhan Petr Kalasa knows that Sha is plotting rebellion, but even he cannot guess the lengths to which Sha will go to achieve victory. In his attempt to stop his rival, he baits Sha into a one-on-one duel. The result is a disaster that vividly demonstrates how much Petr will have to sacrifice to put an end to Sha’s machinations. Yet his suspicions of Sha will not let him rest. He has lost one battle, but—as The Clan is his witness—he will not lose the war. . . .
