Farsight: Empire of Lies $ 16.99 (E-Book)

Empire of liesHigh Commander Farsight, fresh from his victory against the Imperium over the Damocles Gulf, looks to his borders and finds his old enemies – the savage and warlike orks – assailing his worlds and threatening to ravage the heart of the T’au Empire. Farsight’s obsessive crusade will see him locked in an escalating conflict with the greenskins, and he will stop at nothing until their infestation is purged. In the background, foul forces are at work, however – forces that will do whatever they can to see the military genius of Farsight fall on the daemon-haunted world of Arthas Moloch. Can Farsight stand in the face of new truths, and will the T’au Empire stand with him?

Voice of Experience $ 3.99 (E-Short)

voice of experienceFew are the humans who can claim to be trusted members of the T’au Empire. Among their number is Kalice Arkady, a former Astra Militarum officer whose conversion to the Greater Good has been total and successful. Alas, there are others among the gue’vesa – the human auxiliaries who fight alongside their t’au allies – who see their alien saviours as oppressors and would stand against them. Assigned to investigate a series of accidents that may be human sabotage against the t’au, Arkady is drawn into a mystery that will reveal new enemies lurking in the shadows…

Heroes of the Empire $ 18.99 (E-Book)

Heroes of the empireThe Empire is besieged. Countless enemies batter the border of Sigmar’s mighty nation, but standing against them are brave men and women, united in their defiance and led by true heroes. In the wilderness of Averland, Kurt Helborg, Marshal of the Reiksguard, holds the province together in his iron grip. On the frontiers, Ludwig Schwarzhelm, Emperor’s Champion, must halt the unstoppable onslaught of the Greenskins, while in the Drakwald Forest, the warrior Priest Luthor Huss fights a tide of undead that threatens to sweep away all before it. But more insidious enemies lurk within the shadows. Witch hunters and spies are the only remedy to such poisons, and none are more accomplished than Lukas Eichmann and Pieter Verstohlen, whose individual quests find them on the trail of ruthless murders and labyrinthine conspiracies. Will these heroes triumph, or will the myriad evils of the Old World bring ruin to the hope of humanity?
