Hierarchy Series

Islington James: The Strength of the Few

The Strength of the Few

AUDI. VIDE. TACE.
 

 Die Catenische Republik - die Hierarchie - mag die Welt regieren, aber sie weiß nicht alles.
 

 Ich lasse sie glauben, mein Name sei Vis Telimus. Ich lasse sie glauben, ich sei nach einem tragischen Unfall vor drei Jahren verwaist und nur durch reines Glück an ihrer angesehensten&nbsp; Schule angenommen worden. Ich lasse sie glauben, ich würde nach meinem Abschluss bereitwillig der zivilisierten Gesellschaft beitreten und meinen Willen abgeben, wie es bereits Millionen vor mir getan haben.&nbsp;
 
 Ich lasse sie glauben, ich gehöre dazu - und sie glauben mir.
 

 Doch die Wahrheit ist, ich wurde auf die Akademie geschickt, um Antworten zu finden. Um einen Mord aufzuklären. Um nach einer uralten Waffe zu suchen. Um Geheimnisse zu enthüllen, welche die Republik auseinanderreißen könnten.
 

 Und ich werde meinen Willen niemals an das Imperium abtreten, das meine Familie hingerichtet hat.
 

 Um zu überleben, muss ich in den Rängen der Akademie aufsteigen. Ich muss lächeln, Freundschaften schließen, vorgeben, einer von ihnen zu sein - und gewinnen. Denn wenn ich das nicht schaffe, werden diejenigen, die mich kontrollieren wollen und meinen wahren Namen kennen, keine Verwendung mehr für mich haben.
 

 Und wenn die Hierarchie herausfindet, wer ich wirklich bin, werden sie mich töten.
 

 
 "Islington hat eine Welt erschaffen, die alle wichtigen Elemente des Genres vereint: komplexe Magie, bedrohliche Gefahren, politische Intrigen und große Charaktere mit undurchsichtigen Motiven. Fans epischer Fantasybücher werden nicht enttäuscht sein."
 

 -Publishers Weekly
 "Erinnert an Robert Jordan oder Brandon Sanderson: Islingtons Schreibstil ist erfrischend rasant, mit einer leichten und cleveren Note."

 " #1 Fantasy des Jahres. " - petrik leo

CUE THE CHAOS. CUT THE LIGHTS. IT'S TIME TO TAKE TO THE STAGE. 🎭 Caraval meets One Dark Window in the spellbinding new enemies-to-lovers fantasy set in a mysterious theatre where godlike creatures run the show and mortals compete for immortality. 🖤 🔥 'DARK FANTASY AT ITS MOST INTOXICATING' #1 New York Times bestselling author Jennifer L. Armentrout 🔥 -- The gods are dead. All that's left are the Players . . . The performers of the Playhouse are as worshipped as they are feared, their enchanting shows bending hearts, minds, and even reality itself. Vicious, godlike, lethal. Eighteen-year-old Riven Hesper knows the dangers better than anyone, after her own encounter with a Player resulted in a curse that is slowly killing her. When the Playhouse announces the spectacle of a lifetime - a chance for one mortal to steal a Player's immortality - Riven sees her last chance to live. Desperate for answers, she infiltrates the competition. There, she finds Jude, the Playhouse's brilliant, merciless Lead Player, whose charm is as dangerous as his Craft, and strikes a deadly bargain to save her life. But with time running out and the Playhouse's secrets unraveling into a disturbing picture, Riven faces a grim possibility: she might not be the hero of her story after all. In fact, she may be the villain. Because the Playhouse doesn't just tell stories. It rewrites them. And Riven's might end in blood.

Wolkendämmerung

AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A man must fight for his planet against impossible odds when gamers from Earth attempt to remotely annihilate it in this epic, fast-paced novel from the New York Times bestselling author of the smash-hit Dungeon Crawler Carl. All colonist Oliver Lewis ever wanted to do was run the family ranch with his sister, maybe play a gig or two with his band, and keep his family’s aging fleet of intelligent agriculture bots ticking as long as possible. He figures it will be a good thing when the transfer gate finally opens all the way and restores instant travel and full communication between Earth and his planet, New Sonora. But there’s a complication. Even though the settlers were promised they’d be left in peace, Earth’s government now has other plans. The colossal Apex Industries is hired to commence an “eviction action.” But maximizing profits will always be Apex’s number one priority. Why spend money printing and deploying AI soldiers when they can turn it into a game? Why not charge bored Earthers for the opportunity to design their own war machines and remotely pilot them from the comfort of their homes? The game is called Operation Bounce House. Oliver and his friends soon find themselves fighting for their lives against machines piloted by gamers who’ve paid a premium for the privilege. With the help of an old book from his grandfather and a bucket of rusty parts, Oliver is determined to defend the only home he’s ever known.
