The Gates of Rome (2003)
(Emperor, book 1)

"A rich and compelling novel that draws the reader into an extraordinary time and the life of an extraordinary man."
Quicksilver Rising (2003)
(Quicksilver, book 1)
Stan Nicholls

Demonstorm (2004)
(Legends of the Raven, book 3)
James Barclay
"Barclay writes with power, pace and a wonderful sense of humour. Better than that, he vreates novels you want to read again and again."
Swarmthief's Dance (2005)
(Swarmthief, book 1)
Deborah J Miller
