COME FOR THE GAMES.
STAY FOR THE MURDER! The Weltall Tournament’s professional VR games were supposed to be a symbol of cooperation between SysGov and its militaristic neighbor, the Admin. But that was before star Admin player Elly Sako received a death threat, written in blood next to a copy of her own severed head. SysPol Detective Isaac Cho and DTI Special Agent Susan Cantrell are sent in to take charge of the investigation. But the pair struggles to determine who is telling the truth. A jilted relationship between players soon explodes into signs of a far-reaching conspiracy, and the two detectives find themselves racing against time before the tournament ends. Get The Weltall File. |

A HERO OF LEGEND FIGHTS
THE FORCES OF DARKNESS He is known by many names over time: Tam Lin, Robin Hood, and numerous other incarnations reaching into the present—but at his heart he is still True Thomas, one man doing all he can to save us all from a powerful foe. When his brother is snatched right before his eyes, Thomas hunts for justice and discovers that not only do these “elves” steal people, but they also are skinwalkers who occupy humans in positions of power. Their goal: to obliterate humanity and take over our world. When Thomas is dragged into their alien realm, he’s imprisoned and barely escapes alive, but in the process, he gains near-immortality and the ability to transform himself. Will it be enough to protect his loved ones and defeat the enemies of humankind? Get Rhymer. |
