THE RULES ARE SIMPLE… Redlock is a rising star in the brutal sport of Urban Combat, where teams of armed combatants try to score points against their opponents while shooting it out amid Seattle’s decaying urban landscape.

FUN—AND FEAR—IN THE SUN… Everything’s irie in the Caribbean. What could be better than a week of sun, fun, and parties at the bi-annual Caribbean League political conference in Havana, with every shadowrunner, pirate, and low-life in attendance looking for work? What could possibly go wrong? And when the Rastafarian troll shaman T’ing and his crew are approached by an official from Haiti to investigate rumors involving their old enemies, the dark voodoo Kofo cult, it looks like an opportunity for payback and profit combined. Digging deeper, however, T’ing and his runners discover a genocidal plot that threatens the entire region, possibly even resulting in an all-out shooting war between several major Sixth World players. There’s nothing to do but round up all their badass runner contacts, light up a spliff, and kick some ass. But this run will take them under the sea to a top-secret covert lab where Kofo cultists are hiding a weapon that could change the face of the entire Caribbean…and only T’ing and his hard-partying—and even harder-charging—crew stand in their way...

NEVER STOP TRAINING... Dashiell Red Clay's days on the field and at basic combat training might be behind him, but his life as a Salish Ranger has just begun...and there’s a lethal learning curve! Only life in The Sixth World can teach Dash what it means to be a member of the Salish Boat Service, what it means to serve your country, and what the word “country” even stands for in the fractured continents of Shadowrun's dark future. Red Clay and his Rangers will clash with street gangs and elite soldiers alike, from the enigmatic, elven Ghosts to the legendary Wildcats of the NAN plains. Life will throw notorious mercenaries at him, cutthroat thrill-gangers, pride and shame, danger and love, and maybe even a street legend or two. From the barren mountains of Afghanistan to the filthy streets of Seattle, from the 2040s to the 2060s, from matters of the heart to tests of loyalty, Dash will face dangers Yakima never trained him for and threats “the book” never saw coming! * * * The Blackbird series is a short novel trilogy with strong military, Shadowrun-historical, and Native American Nation themes. Fans of the Kincaid series will enjoy a first-person narrative exploring the history of the Sixth World through Dash’s eyes as he experiences the world of shadowrunners from a perspective a half-step removed from the shadows...on the battlefield, not the streets, as paramilitary action spills from one famous conflict to the next, spanning decades and three action-packed stories.
