About this listen
But for someone who can travel time, when you are is relative.
He’s lived a long life, but is that all there is?
He passed on Kali’s mantle to Bud, but does that mean the highers are done with him?
All he wants is to join his wife in death, and find out if there really is an afterlife together.
But since when has anything gone the way anyone wanted where highers are concerned?
And on the eve of his death, just what could any of them want of him now?
One thing is for sure though.
He is, has been, and always will be,
Thorn.

Story
Imperator Hunter trusted Bonko when no-one else did. But with a reputation for being a pirate, why would anyone trust him? With an exemplary multi-war record, he should be trusted, but largely isn’t. I trust him. He’s my hero. He and his crew are heroes. When I needed someone, anyone, he was there. They were there. And here’s the thing: There’s a secret. One I’m not supposed to tell. And at the center of it, is Bonko’s Club. The Hunter Imperium Universe Is best read in this order: The Hunter Legacy Hero at Large Hunted Hero Hunting Send in the Hero Make or Break the Hero Hail ...

Lyla Cowan has finally embraced who she was meant to be. A lone wolf leading a pack of lone wolves presenting as a mercenary company. It doesn’t matter where she goes across two galaxies, someone makes trouble for people she calls friends. But when your own and theirs are threatened, wolves don’t stand down. Lyla doesn’t like picking fights, but she never backs away from them when they start. What matters is how you fight with what you have. And every fight is somehow Uneven.

Lyla Cowan is finally feeling good about where she is. But what she is remains a yet to be answered question. Ralnor space is proving to be just as lucrative as DU space was. And just as dangerous. The Ralnor don’t like the Unruly, and they act like it’s not a problem. But Lyla can now see the cracks in the façade. But are things actually much worse than anyone will admit? Now she has a full service mercenary company at her back. Now she can face whatever comes at her with confidence. But Unruly is, as Unruly does.

Story
James Bigglesworth is not a young man anymore. He’s risen as high as he can go, and achieved more than all his ambitions, and even dreams, had him striving for. But his early life as an ace pilot caused damage to his body, and he’s known for a long time he’ll die younger than most. Being the Marshall in charge of carriers and fighters, in a military where the carriers are also dreadnaughts, has allowed him to scale back his role in things, and keep his failing health a secret. His protégé Lacey’s rejection of the top CAG position has been a constant thorn in his side, and being ...

Story
Merlin is now Emperor of the Sparta Empire. Which is exactly what he set out to do. And also is exactly what he’s always said should never happen. He had to be the challenger to get there doing it right, but acceptance is a fickle thing anyway. When he started the empire was but a trigger event away from a civil war. But has he become that trigger? Or will he be able to get society to step back from the brink? Now he must be the Unifier.

Yet preparations for fifteen billion exist, but only one person remembers the work being done. The one who knows, and the one who remembers, are the same, but Jane is not human.

The Owl war is over, but for Snark, normal isn’t what it used to be. He's on his way home from seeing Jane crowned Queen, and the Kingdom of Hunter's Run come into being. The war might be over, and the trade deal he made at the end of it might finally be enough for this wayward cat to be allowed back into cat society. The only thing faster than human ships, is the stories about their entry into sector ten, which ripple into the adjacent sectors. On the Cat Homeworld in sector eight, this triggers long awaited, and long stifled change. For a Warlord in sector nine, human tech would allow ...
