Victor Sandoval—aka Lord Victor, Duke of Iron Mountain—has continued to expand his legendary status fighting for the kingdom of Gloria in the world of Rhun, where savage duels between champions are the ultimate deciders of fate. But his trials in the arena pale in comparison to what comes next.

New Manhattan isn't for everyone. In fact, it's pretty much only for those powerful, wealthy, or lethal enough to survive in its rarefied air. Megacorporations and a few elites make the rules. Everyone else just dies by them. Tony used to be one of the hidden elite. A high-tech enhanced operative working behind the scenes, in the shadows, under the table. That is, until his handlers decided to terminate his contract, strip his hardware, and dump him in the Blast. The end of the line. A place where the airborne Dust mutates your DNA before the locals can do worse.

Ward Dyer, a seasoned Port Authority detective, tracks a kidnapper to the eerie, forgotten tunnels of the Seattle underground—a place where shadows whisper and danger lurks. He disrupts a human sacrifice, but the victory leaves him gravely wounded and teetering on the brink of death. He’s approached by a mysterious young woman with an offer he can’t refuse.

Tony and Addie must up their game—or get put out of business for good—in the second volume of this dystopian series from the creator of Victor of Tucson. The Blast isn't your typical New Manhattan neighborhood. It's the kind of high-tech, hardwired cyberpunk underworld where only the tough survive and maniacs thrive. So it's the perfect place for ex–corporate black bagger Tony Santoro and intrepid reporter Addie Jones to set up shop as legitimate operators.

Once, Victor Sandoval was just a boy from Tucson. Now, he's a powerful titan of war. After taking more than his share of glory, treasure, and enemy lives in gladiatorial combat, he would love to rest for a half-second. But deep down he knows he must continue to grow stronger in order to ascend to the ranks of the authority-wielding veil walkers. On the world of Dark Ember, humanity has fallen under the evil dominion of vampire lords—masters of death magic. In their domain, people exist only to serve their masters, either as slaves or as sustenance.

On the planet of Fanwath survival depends on the skills, levels, and powers one attains through combat or exploration. Unfortunately, Morgan, Bronwyn, and Olivia aren’t on Fanwath anymore. In fact, they don’t know where the hell they are, but one thing’s for certain: they’re in constant danger.
