HUNTING THE MOST DANGEROUS SUPER Powerful Telekinetic Jane Pace has
fled Terra for the Thao Protectorate. Armed with a new name and
identity, she now works as a bodyguard for the ruler of the Kingdom
of Gloriana and teaches refugee supernormals, victims of the
anti-super purges of multiple planets. Although Terran authorities
still hunt for the Red Angel, Jane's focus is revenge. She and her
friends in Captain Jack Fisher's Three Furies Fleet are searching,
searching for one particular man: Tristan, an unstoppable and
insane Telepath/Empath/Telekinetic ultra-hybrid. Tristan stalks
Jane, biding his time, while Jane, Soames (a Terran Telepath whose
twin was murdered by Tristan), Master Assassin Quinn and Telepath
Daniel (Tristan's former protegee and obsession) plot their own
retribution. Jane and her friends risk everything to deal some
Pacey Justice to Tristan, even as Jane realizes that losing to him
may mean a fate worse than death. For how do you fight a man who
can erase your soul?"
An Extraordinary Girl at the End of Worlds Jane, a seventeen year
old genetically engineered Macro-Telekinetic, lives at a School for
Supernormals (Telepaths, Telekinetics, Empaths) on her home system
of Pace-Pallon. There she and her classmates-the stunningly
beautiful Atalanta (a persuasive Manipulative Empath), the arrogant
Wilby (a brilliant Micro-Telekinetic), lethal but loyal Felix (the
powerful Macro-TK instructor), the experienced Stuart (a clever and
crafty Telepath) and many others-have been trained from birth by
the Pacey Government to do its dirty work. But everything changes
one morning when dangerous Objects-Objects full of gestating
tapetia mortis creatures capable of consuming millions of
humans-slam into and infest all four Pace-Pallon planets. Soon
abandoned by the Government that owns them, the Supernormals and
their leader, General Samuel Armstrong, realize they will have to
fight and, if necessary, flee to survive. The tapetia mortis may
mean the end of Pace-Pallon, but for Jane and her fellow
Supernormals the story is only just beginning...
From Bad to Worse The Heliot War continues and the cost in lives
grows. Jane Pace, the powerful Telekinetic, and her similarly
gifted friends have fled Terra as Union President Archer tightens
the screws on supernormal freaks of all descriptions and origins.
They now live and work for fellow Pacey Captain Ian Armstrong's
Phoenix Independent Mercenaries (the P.I.M.), but nowhere is truly
safe. The Heely weapon, the Aquaformer, continues to allow the
conquest of innocent worlds and Archer fuels the fire, pushing the
Union military (including the Fleet commanded by Admiral Samuel
Armstrong) into battles they cannot win. Archer's deliberate
mismanagement of the war threatens to disembowel the Union.
Enlisting the help of wealthy genius David Abrams, Jane has to plan
for the most daring (and insanely dangerous) mission of her life.
Unfortunately there is only one place she can go to stop Archer.
She has to go back. Back to Terra.
One Old War, One New The Heliot, a genetically engineered
human/amphibian species, have begun rapidly expanding their Empire,
ruthlessly using a device, the Aquaformer, that turns a dry planet
into an ocean of poisonous Heely water. World by world the Heliot
plan to remake the Galactic Union in their own planet's image. Now
they are coming for Earth. But even as Union forces, some led by
Admiral Samuel Armstrong, struggle to protect their member planets,
newly-elected Union President, Siobhan Archer, uses the Heely
threat to drive anti-supernormal paranoia to a fever pitch. Jane
Pace, the powerful Pacey Telekinetic, now works for the Union's
Extra-Sensory Task Force (the ESTF) on Earth's largest space
station, Terra 1. She and most of her fellow refugee freaks find
themselves not only fighting to survive, but to keep the Union
free...even if most of the humans within the Union would rather see
it fall than accept their help. Fortunately for them, Jane, Felix,
Atalanta, Wilby and many others, including some Terran 'natural'
supers, aren't waiting for permission to act...
