Summary

Third volume in the classic series, and the first to feature superman Kimball Kinnison.
The pirates of Boskone raided at will, menacing the whole structure of interstellar civilization. Masterminded by a super-scientist, their fleets outgunned even the mighty space cruisers of the Galactic Patrol.
Lensman Kimball Kinnision of the Patrol found the secret Boskonian base. It was impenetrable to outside attack, but a single infiltrator MIGHT penetrate its defenses, if he wanted to take on million-to-one odds.
Kinnison took them, under the impression that he was combatting normal beings. When his lens touched the mind of an Eddorian, a monster from beyond time and space, he realized that the future of a galaxy depended upon his ability to get out alive.
Available since: 12/03/2018.

Or a young queen steals his heart.

    The world went to shit the day I was born.They say fire rained from the sky for seven days signalling the arrival of the monsters. They say humanity fought hard to beat them. They say the celestials saved us. They say a lot of things.Me? I deal in the present. In scouting for useful things and keeping my team alive outside the protective walls of our base. I might not have a fancy monster-killing blade like the Sweepers do, but I've avoided getting my face eaten off so far, so I call that a win. But when my base is taken by monsters, my scout skills are the only thing standing between imminent demise and survival.Sanctuary lies across the deadlands—monster infested territory, unmapped and uncharted even by the celestials. It's the only route, and I have no choice but to navigate my people through it. I'm a scout, a survivor. I got this. Until I haven't.The last thing I expect is to be relying on four monsters for protection. But fate obviously has a sense of humor. Shemyaza and his scouts are intelligent, deathly, and lethal, and turns out they're the only ones who can lead us to safety.Only problem is, their aid comes with a hefty price. Me.Contains mature themes.

Geoff, as the oldest, is doing the best he can fighting for every coin he needs to keep his family afloat, but the bouts in the ring are taking their toll on his body and he knows he can’t keep it up much longer. When an offer of help comes, it’s from a questionable source. A source that could drag Geoff down a slippery slope into the city’s thriving underbelly. To make things worse, after opening that door, saying no could put the family he’s doing it all for in danger. 
While Geoff struggles, Eerin is heading down her own dangerous path, running the grimy streets of Lowan Island cultivating the skill of a cutpurse. Like Geoff, she believes she’s making the most of her abilities to provide for the family, but for her, the price of failure could be even higher.
