"The bonds of blood and vengeance must hold, or all will be lost. Karn has lost everything: his power, his family, and his place among the Black Guard. Dragged from the battlefield and left to die, he awakens in fractured Rhudoria, a land torn by clan rivalries and ruled—but not united—by the Bear Chieftain. Now, Eirithia's armies and the Black Guard invade, stealing its people and crushing its defenses. Amid the chaos, Karn uncovers the Witch Queen's vile schemes. With monsters rising and deviants among them, he must rally Rhudoria's clans and forge alliances with old enemies, overcoming hatred and rekindling broken bonds. As the Witch Queen's plans unfold, Karn must rise from defeat. Can he unite a fractured land in time, or will darkness consume everything? The fate of Rhudoria—and the world—rests on a fragile alliance and a warrior fighting without the power he once wielded. The war continues. The fight for unity begins."

Perhaps the Stars (2 of 3) [Dramatized Adaptation]: Terra Ignota 4

"From the 2017 John W. Campbell Award Winner for Best Writer, Ada Palmer's Perhaps the Stars is the final book of the Hugo Award-shortlisted Terra Ignota series. World Peace turns into global civil war. In the future, the leaders of Hive nations–nations without fixed location–clandestinely committed nefarious deeds in order to maintain an outward semblance of utopian stability. But the facade could only last so long. The comforts of effortless global travel and worldwide abundance may have tempered humanity's darkest inclinations, but conflict remains deeply rooted in the human psyche. All it needed was a catalyst, in form of special little boy to ignite half a millennium of repressed chaos. Now, war spreads throughout the globe, splintering old alliances and awakening sleeping enmities. All transportation systems are in ruins, causing the tyranny of distance to fracture a long-united Earth and threaten to obliterate everything the Hive system built. With the arch-criminal Mycroft nowhere to be found, his successor, Ninth Anonymous, must not only chronicle the discord of war, but attempt to restore order in a world spiraling closer to irreparable ruin. The fate of a broken society hangs in the balance. Is the key to salvation to remain Earth-bound or, perhaps, to start anew throughout the far reaches of the stars?

An Artful Deceit

"What happens when a Duke is mistaken for a Viscount—on purpose? Add that to two Michelangelo sketches, hidden passages, vanishing and reappearing art, threatening messages, conniving art collectors, arrogant academicians, a Bow Street agent, a lovelorn couple, and an elderly prankster. It’s enough to give a Duke a headache. Miles Wingate, the Duke of Ellinbourne, was not supposed to be at the Dowager Duchess of Malmsby’s house party. He was supposed to be in London preparing for the spring opening of the Royal Academy of Art, yet here he was, a stand-in guest for his injured cousin, Viscount Redinger. This was taking family loyalty too far. The only rational person at the house party was Miss Ann Hallowell, the Duchess’s granddaughter, and as his luck would have it, his cousin’s intended! Thrown together when he’s mistaken for his cousin, Miles and Ann join to unravel the house party mysteries. But every time they pull one mystery thread free, another appears, for seemingly everyone has a hidden agenda—including the Duchess!"
