Navidad. A lo largo de la frontera de la OTAN, aburridos soldados vigilan el tránsito que procede de la Europa del Este como cualquier otra noche del año. No había ninguna razón para pensar que estos convoyes fueran distintos. Sin embargo, aquella noche —la noche de navidad— todo iba a ser diferente. Los incidentes subversivos y la inquietud política parecían no guardar relación entre sí. El incremento de la actividad de los grupos terroristas y de los agentes infiltrado había pasado inadvertido. Para los que tenían la misión de dar la señal de alarma ante cualquier peligro, no parecía existir ninguna circunstancia anormal. En veinticuatro horas toda la Europa Occidental fue conquistada. Este es el relato de una guerra que podría estallar en cualquier momento, y que describe con detalles fríos pero convincentes lo que podría ocurrir a todos los hombres, mujeres y niños de la Europa Occidental durante el silencio y la aparente paz de una noche. La extraordinaria novela de Cyril Joly nos lleva desde una Europa dormida a un final estremecedor. Nadie puede permitirse el lujo de ignorarla.

Until one dark lord at last united the Sith in the quest to enslave the galaxy--and exterminate the Jedi.

But when a high-stakes card game ends in deadly violence, Dessel suddenly finds himself a wanted man.
On the run from vengeful Republic forces, Dessel vanishes into the ranks of the Sith army, and ships out to join the bloody war...

12,090 A.D. It is a dark time for the world. Humanity is just crawling out from under three hundred years of domination by the race of vampires known as the Nobility. The war against the vampires has taken its toll; cities lie in ruin, the countryside is fragmented into small villages and fiefdoms that still struggle against nightly raids by the fallen vampires-and the remnants of their genetically manufactured demons and werewolves.

But some Hunters are better than others, and some bring their own kind of danger with them...
