A stunning new epic fantasy from two-time Hugo Award winner Kameron Hurley.On the eve of a recurring catastrophic event known to extinguish nations and reshape continents, a troubled orphan evades death and slavery to uncover her own bloody past... while a world goes to war with itself. In the frozen kingdom of Saiduan, invaders from another realm are decimating whole cities, leaving behind nothing but ash and ruin. At the heart of this war lie the pacifistic Dhai people, once enslaved by the Saiduan and now courted by their former masters to provide aid against the encroaching enemy.Stretching from desolate tundra to steamy, semi-tropical climes seething with sentient plant life, this is an epic tale of blood mages and mercenaries, emperors and priestly assassins who must unite to save a world on the brink of ruin.As the dark star of the cataclysm rises, an illegitimate ruler is tasked with holding together a country fractured by civil war; a precocious young fighter is asked to betray his family to save his skin; and a half-Dhai general must choose between the eradication of her father''s people or loyalty to her alien Empress. Through tense alliances and devastating betrayal, the Dhai and their allies attempt to hold against a seemingly unstoppable force as enemy nations prepare for a coming together of worlds as old as the universe itself. In the end, one world will rise - and many will perish.File Under: Fantasy [ Orphaned Child | World at War | Blood Magic | The Fluidity of Gender]From the Trade Paperback edition.

Loyalties are tested when worlds collide… Every two thousand years, the dark star Oma appears in the sky, bringing with it a tide of death and destruction. And those who survive must contend with friends and enemies newly imbued with violent powers. The kingdom of Saiduan already lies in ruin, decimated by invaders from another world who share the faces of those they seek to destroy.Now the nation of Dhai is under siege by the same force. Their only hope for survival lies in the hands of an illegitimate ruler and a scullery maid with a powerful – but unpredictable –magic. As the foreign Empire spreads across the world like a disease, one of their former allies takes up her Empress’s sword again to unseat them, and two enslaved scholars begin a treacherous journey home with a long-lost secret that they hope is the key to the Empire’s undoing.But when the enemy shares your own face, who can be trusted?In this devastating sequel to The Mirror Empire, Kameron Hurley transports us back to a land of blood mages and sentient plants, dark magic, and warfare on a scale that spans worlds.File Under: Fantasy [ Empire on Fire | Duplicates at War | The Royal Exchange | All Will Fall ]

The Light Brigade: it’s what soldiers fighting the war against Mars call the ones who come back…different. Grunts in the corporate corps get broken into light, travelling from interplanetary battlefronts. Everyone is changed by what the corps must do. Those who survive learn to stick to the mission brief — no matter what happens during combat. Dietz, a fresh recruit in the infantry, begins to experience combat drops which don’t sync up with the platoon’s. And the bad drops tell a story of war that’s not what the corporate brass want the soldiers to think it is. Is Dietz really experiencing the war differently, or is it combat madness? Trying to survive with sanity intact, Dietz is ready to become a hero — or maybe even a villain. In war it’s hard to tell the difference.

“[A] thought-provoking space opera.” —Kirkus Reviews “One of the most unusual and powerfully disturbing space operas we’re likely to see this year.” —Chicago Tribune Set within a system of decaying world-ships travelling through deep space, this breakout novel of epic science fiction follows a pair of sisters who must wrest control of their war-torn legion of worlds—and may have to destroy everything they know in order to survive.Somewhere on the outer rim of the universe, a mass of decaying world-ships known as the Legion is traveling in the seams between the stars. Here in the darkness, a war for control of the Legion has been waged for generations, with no clear resolution. Zan wakes with no memory, prisoner of a people who say there are her family. She is told she is their salvation, the only person capable of boarding the Mokshi, a world-ship with the power to leave the Legion. But Zan’s new family is not the only one desperate to gain control of the prized ship. Zan finds that she must choose sides in a genocidal campaign that will take her from the edges of the Legion’s gravity well to the very belly of the world. In the tradition of Iain M. Banks’s Culture novels and Roger Zelazny’s Chronicles of Amber, Kameron Hurley has created an epic and thrilling tale about tragic love, revenge, and war as imagined by one of our most celebrated new writers.

"Sie sagten, der Krieg würde uns in Licht verwandeln. Ich wollte zu jenen Helden gehören, die uns diese bessere Welt geschenkt haben." Die Lichtbrigade - so nennen Veteranen des Marskriegs diejenigen Kameraden, die zurückkommen … und nicht mehr sie selbst sind. Diese Konzern-Kämpfer wurden in Licht umgewandelt, um schnell zu interplanetaren Schlachtfeldern versetzt werden zu können. Doch bei dieser Transformation geschieht etwas mit ihnen. Diejenigen, die die Prozedur überleben, halten sich exakt an die Missionsvorgaben – koste es was es wolle. Dietz, ein frischgebackener Infanterist, muss feststellen, dass seine Erinnerungen an die Einsätze nicht mit denen seines Zuges übereinstimmen. Sie erzählen eine ganz andere Geschichte des Krieges, die ganz und gar nicht dem entspricht, was die Konzernleitung ihren Soldaten weismachen will. Licht oder Schatten? In den Wirren des Krieges ist der Unterschied manchmal nur noch marginal.

La Brigada de Luz: así es como se denominan los soldados que luchan contra Marte cuando regresan "distintos" de los frentes de batalla interplanetarios a los que han sido teletransportados convertidos en luz. Dietz es un despojo, alguien a quien se le niegan los derechos sociales básicos que proporcionan las megacorporaciones que controlan el sistema solar, y se alista en el ejército corporativo de Tene-Silvia para vengar a los millones de personas que han muerto a manos de los marcianos. Pero se da cuenta de que sus saltos temporales no coinciden con los de su pelotón. Y lo que estos saltos cuentan sobre la guerra no es lo que los ejecutivos de las corporaciones quieren que los soldados crean que está ocurriendo.
