Philip C Quaintrell is up there with Asher, Hamilton and Banks.' - Stephen Whitfield - Amazon customer 'Great blend of sci-fi and fantasy themes, fast-moving and packed with action.' - Steven Matthews - Amazon customer --- KALIAN GAINES IS A MAN WITH NOTHING TO LOSE. Kalian has chosen to travel through the Conclave's new Starforge and explore what remains of the Terran Empire. This graveyard of worlds holds secrets long forgotten and better left alone. Regardless of the dangers, however, answers must be found and soon. The threat of the Vanguard looms over the entire Conclave, its purpose; to pave the way for something worse, something ancient. Kalian must adapt and evolve, or risk losing everything in humanity's battle to not only survive those who seek their extinction, but also their place in the Conclave. Roland North is carving a bloody trail across the criminal underworld, seeking his own answers. He refuses to believe that Li'ara is gone and, if he must, will maim, torture and kill everyone connected to Protocorps to learn the truth. The oldest beings in the known universe have traversed an ocean of stars for a singular purpose: war. The only chance for hope has been discovered in the darkest corner of the galaxy where, at last, the heretic has been found... HERETIC IS THE PENULTIMATE CHAPTER IN THIS UNMISSABLE GALAXY-SPANNING EPIC SERIES. --- 'This is staggeringly good.' - Kindle customer 'This series is going to be at the top of my re-read list for the foreseeable future.' - Jemma R - Amazon customer
