Sprengstoff, Zündung, Start.Der Kampf gegen den Lich-Pharao beginnt, als die Ranger zu einem tödlichen Schlag gegen den von den Sauren kontrollierten Wüstenhafen von Sûstagul im Land des Schwarzen Schlafs ausholen. Brutale Häuserkämpfe und unerbittlich Straßenschlachten brechen aus, während Spezialteams hochkarätige Ziele, wie Zauberer, Kriegshäuptlinge und tödliche Meuchlergilden, angreifen, um den Feind daran zu hindern, sich mit dem mächtigen Netherzauberer zu verbünden. In einem verzweifelten Versuch, die Zivilisation vor den Mächten einer unvorstellbaren Finsternis zu retten, lauert das Scheitern hinter jeder Ecke, und die Verdammnis in jeder dunklen Gasse. Die Ruine ist ein sehr düsterer Ort... ... aber Ranger weisen den Weg.

Mit verzweifelten zusammengestellten Armeen versuchen die Königreiche, die Flut der Dunkelheit aufzuhalten, aber die Wahrheit ist klar. Die Stunde des endgültigen Untergangs ist gekommen. Doch der Zauberer Vandahar hat noch einen letzten Trumpf in der Hand: Ranger. Gemeinsam mit Elfen und Zwergen machen sie sich auf den Weg, um das Reich des bösen Lich-Pharaos aus einer völlig unerwarteten Richtung anzugreifen. Überleben. Asymmetrische Kriegsführung. Vollkommen unerwartet zuschlagen. Das ist es, was die Ranger am besten können. Aber zuerst müssen sie den EInsatz in der Zitadelle überleben. Was die Mächte des Bösen begonnen haben, werden die Ranger beenden!

Krieger. Sklave. Überlebender. Imperator.Während die zerfallende Galaktische Republik dem unerbittlichen Angriff eines gnadenlosen Feindes ausgesetzt ist, beginnt der Aufstieg eines rätselhaften Imperators, der eine korrupte, die Galaxie umspannende Zivilisation vor sich selbst retten will ... und vor etwas viel Dunklerem, das jenseits der Grenzen des Bekannten liegt. Als er gerade mit eiserner Faust die Zügel der Macht ergreifen will, gefährdet ein Attentat einer geheimen Verbindung innerhalb seines engsten Führungskreises alle Pläne, die er für seine Dunkle Legion, seine Imperiale Navy und die endgültige Eroberung aller Sterne in Gang gesetzt hat. Doch die Attentäter haben keine Ahnung, mit wem sie es eigentlich zu tun haben ... oder zu was er geworden ist. Imperator ist ein düsteres Heldenepos, das die Grenzen von Zeit, Raum und Freundschaft überschreitet und einen Mann auf der Suche nach einer Macht begleitet, die niemals hätte gefunden werden dürfen.

The Coalition is reeling. New Vega and its other worlds have fallen beneath the boot of the newly allied Savage marines, and the death count continues to rise at a staggering rate. One thing is clear: the war to come will be a fight for the very survival of the species. For both sides in this conflict, now is the time to become what fate, and victory, demand.The Savages--post-human monsters who believe themselves to be gods--are intent on remaking civilization in their own violent and pathological image. Yet their alliance is tenuous. Among the many tribes of the Uplifted, as they call themselves, the struggle for supremacy rages on. All know that in the end there can be only one tribe. One leader. One truth.Meanwhile humanity's last, desperate hope is the formation of a new kind of fighting force: The Legion. Those select few who are hardy enough--or foolish enough--to undertake the relentless, grueling, and merciless candidate training will have the chance to be transformed into mythical heroes... or die trying. They will be pushed beyond their physical and mental limits as they seek to survive an unforgiving planet, lost and derelict ghost spaceships, and worst of all, the cold, unflinching brutality of Tyrus Rechs. At the end of this crucible, only the one percent of the one percent will earn the right to be called...... Legionnaires.Also available in audio book format performed by Stephen Lang (Avatar, Tombstone), Galaxy's Edge: Gods & Legionnaires brings you into the mind of the Savage marines and shows you the heart required to enter the Legion in the second epic installment of Galaxy's Edge: Savage Wars!
