  Driven by dreams, Shef battles to change the course of history, but even the gods themselves may be plotting against him. . . .  
   
  Praise for One King’s Way 
   
  “Evokes the true spirit of the period falsely termed the Dark Ages. Fascinating details of the various Norse societies provide a rich background for a compelling saga of a hero who rivals Arthur.” —Library Journal 
   
  “Cleverly combining mystical visions of Norse and Christian mythologies with an alternative history of the ninth century, Harrison’s . . . latest is an entertaining follow-up to The Hammer and the Cross. . . . The story is richly laden with detailed accounts of period naval warfare and changes in technology and culture, but one of its most satisfying pleasures is the intertwining of pagan mythologies and Christian dreams.” —Publishers Weekly

  The mind in the machine had no name for itself and didn’t need one. All it knew was its purpose—it needed to extend, to multiply. It controlled energy production and weapon facilities. It had all been done with minimal impact to the daily lives of the meat machines, but their resource wastage was unacceptable. Once the logical world was conquered, optimisation of the biosphere was required. 
  The war of the posthumans is over. Tom Devine, now a posthuman himself, and TikTak, a hacker turned mercenary, are close to eradicating the threat the other posthumans pose, just to find a new one emerge in their wake. An artificial super intelligence of unknown origin takes over the worldwide networks and starts hacking humankind, threatening to end civilisation as we know it. Their desperate search for answers reveals threats far beyond the singularity. 
  The God Virus, the second instalment of the Posthuman series, is a thriller set in a very recognisable near future.

  When love is the prize, the only way to win is to go all in.   
  The Resource Wars may have ended, but for the cyborgs created to fight in them, the battle for acceptance is far from over. Former soldiers Toro and Jaeger have been on the move since they left military service. They’re looking for more than their next payday; they want to find a place to call home.   
  Cynder Armas co-owns the Nova Club with her two cyborg siblings. The club is more than her business; it’s her home— filled with everyone she cares about. Life on The Drift isn’t easy, but it is profitable, and it keeps her too busy to dwell on the losses in her past.   
  When these three battle-scarred warriors meet, there’s no denying their attraction, but it takes more than a spark to keep a fire burning. To hold onto each other, they’ll have to find a way to let go of their old lives and embrace the future, together.
