Before humanity had ever stepped foot on Earth, an ancient, powerful people ruled galaxies. Their empire stretched for over ten galaxies, ruled over by one emperor. When a powerful force threatened them with total destruction, they thought of cloning more soldiers, but a failed experiment left these people with a new race. Humanity was born, and spread across the empire. Relationships developed with these two peoples; an old taboo keeping the two species apart, but when two men travel to Earth, a new colony, they discover that breaking taboo is the least of their problems.

Wren It’s been fourteen years since the gateway to Hell opened and life as I knew it ended. I managed to survive the Wilds, but now I have a chance to build a better world for all Wilders. Unfortunately, it means working with the demons I’ve always considered my enemies. Joining with the demons wouldn’t be a horrible prospect, except it means dealing with Corson. Somehow, the irritating demon gets under my skin until I’m not sure if I want to kiss him or kill him. As we grow closer, the more memories of my long-buried past slip free, leaving me unsure of what’s real and what’s not… Corson I assumed joining the Wilders to hunt down the creatures that escaped Hell was a job I’d enjoy. Not only can I kill my enemies, but I also have a chance to get closer to Wren. I wasn’t expecting the stubborn woman to go out of her way to avoid me. The more time we spend together, the more I realize she might prefer me dead, but there’s nothing I won’t do to keep her safe. However, when a lethal threat rises, I fear keeping Wren alive may be impossible. ***The Hell on Earth series is a spinoff of the Road to Hell series.

One of the League ships was captained by Kamarsoman the Malai warrior who held a special place in Cassie's heart.

With beautiful illustrations and a detailed map, Sun Moon Earth has everything you need to get ready for the next solar eclipse. On April 8, 2024, millions of Americans will experience an awe-inspiring phenomenon: a total eclipse of the sun. In Sun Moon Earth, astronomer Tyler Nordgren illustrates how this most seemingly unnatural of natural phenomena was transformed from a fearsome omen to a tourist attraction. From the astrologers of ancient China and Babylon to the high priests of the Maya, Sun Moon Earth takes us around the world to show how different cultures interpreted these dramatic events. Greek philosophers discovered eclipses' cause and used them to measure their world and the cosmos beyond. Victorian-era scientists mounted eclipse expeditions during the age of globe-spanning empires. And modern-day physicists continue to use eclipses to confirm Einstein's theory of relativity. Beautifully illustrated and lyrically written, Sun Moon Earth is the ideal guide for all eclipse watchers and star gazers alike.

I managed to survive the Wilds, but now I have a chance to build a better world for all Wilders. Unfortunately, it means working with the demons I’ve always considered my enemies. Corson I assumed joining the Wilders to hunt down the creatures that escaped Hell was a job I’d enjoy. Not only can I kill my enemies, but I also have a chance to get closer to Wren. I wasn’t expecting the stubborn woman to go out of her way to avoid me. Book 2: Into the Abyss Amalia Born behind a seal, I never experienced anything beyond those four walls until I was freed from my prison. On Earth, the other demons see the jinn as nothing but monsters; however, they don’t know the jinn as well as they think. I’m beginning to realize I don’t either. I find myself torn between loyalty to my kind and the anguish of those who remain free when the jinn unleash a trap to ensnare most of the palitons in the Abyss. Book 3: Kiss of Death Aisling Volunteering to work at the wall wasn’t my life’s goal, but in this new world, the dreams of old are things of the past... especially when I discover I’m part demon. I embraced my demon side and the freedom it offered—until it led me straight to Hawk. Now I find myself bound to a man I don’t even know. Unfortunately, I don’t have time to process this new development before the horsemen and angels tear my world apart. Hawk It was only supposed to be a quick trip to the wall before returning to the Wilds... but meeting Aisling changed everything. On the hunt for our enemies, I have no choice but to bring her with me into the Wilds. However, I wasn’t expecting our pursuit to lead us straight into the minotaur’s trap. Now that we’re the hunted, can we escape its labyrinth and destroy the horsemen, or will we be lost in the maze forever? Book 4: Edge of the Darkness Bale Dreams of the darkness have haunted me since childhood. I always assumed one day I would uncover the answer to what the darkness hid... and that those answers would destroy me. However, after learning who my mate is, I know it won’t be the darkness that kills me… it will be him. No matter what happens, I plan to take Wrath with me when I die. Wrath I wasn’t prepared to discover my Chosen in the tempting, red-haired paliton, but now that I’ve found her, I’m not letting her go… even if she’d prefer to see me dead. Determined to make Bale bow to my will, I wasn’t expecting the turn of events that thrusts us into a situation far deadlier than any I’ve ever encountered. Nor was I expecting to fall for the infuriating beauty. She may want to kill me, but she will be mine… unless the answers to what lay within the darkness destroy us both first. Find out if Bale and Wrath turn from enemies to lovers in the action-packed conclusion to the Hell on Earth series. ***The Hell on Earth series is a spinoff of the Road to Hell series.

"What if?" questions stimulate people to think in new ways, to refresh old ideas, and to make new discoveries. In What If the Earth Had Two Moons, Neil Comins leads us on a fascinating ten-world journey as we explore what our planet would be like under alternative astronomical conditions. In each case, the Earth would be different, often in surprising ways. The title chapter, for example, gives us a second moon orbiting closer to Earth than the one we have now. The night sky is a lot brighter, but that won't last forever. Eventually the moons collide, with one extra-massive moon emerging after a period during which Earth sports a Saturn-like ring. This and nine and other speculative essays provide us with insights into the Earth as it exists today, while shedding new light on the burgeoning search for life on planets orbiting other stars. Appealing to adult and young adult alike, this book is a fascinating journey through physics and astronomy, and follows on the author's previous bestseller, What if the Moon Didn't Exist?, with completely new scenarios backed by the latest astronomical research.
