The last two entries into the Sons of Ares had Fitchner on his
heels. In the first, he was driven by love and desperation to save
his wife Brynn before her execution at the hands of the Board of
Quality Control. He failed, but rescued his child. In the second
entry, Fitchner went head to head with both of his early
allies—Arturius and, in a way, Quicksilver. His wrath left
Arturius dead and setback Quicksilver’s dream of expanding
exploration and human habitation to other stars. In Forbidden Song,
Ares may not always be in control. But he has a plan, and it’s a
doozy. FORBIDDEN SONG is one part Ocean’s 11, one part Les
Miserable, and sets the fuse for the Rising that Darrow will
inherit.
For Jon Hayes, the super-powered 'costumes' are just part of
ordinary life in New York City, until the day his pregnant wife
Melanie is senselessly killed in a clash between Captain Light and
The Jade Shade. But as Hayes struggles to come to terms with his
loss, and questions for the first time who the costumes are and
where they come from, the once sharp lines of his reality begin to
blur... If Hayes wants to uncover the shocking truth about the
figures behind the costumes, and get justice for his fallen family,
he'll have to step out of the background, and stop being a
bystander. File Under: Superhero Fantasy [ It's Clobberin' Time |

In the distant future, the human body is a temporary and
interchangeable commodity - if you can pay. For the interstellar
elite, bodies are swapped out and reused without a second thought.
You never grow old; you never die. However, some bodies are more
temporary than others ... Takeshi Kovacs was once a member of the
Envoy Corps, stormtroopers for the Interstellar Earth Protectorate,
ultra-lethal adepts in switching bodies across the stars. While he
served, he was known by a variety of names--Mamba Lev, One Hand
Rending, the Icepick--all testament to his capacity for rapid
response and extreme violence in whatever flesh he wore. Now he's
out of the service and trying to live a different life. But the
Protectorate hasn't changed its spots, no matter what world Kovacs
drifts to, and with that old combat rage still burning deep inside
him, will he ever really be able to walk away? Created by Richard
K. Morgan, Altered Carbon was previously adapted as a Netflix
television series. This original graphic novel, written by Rik
Hoskin (Brandon Sanderson's White Sand/Pierce Brown's Red Rising,
expands upon the Altered Carbon universe.
