No more exciting time could have been chosen by the skilled storyteller Andre Norton as a setting for a thrilling novel than the beginning of Egypt's fight for freedom against hated Hyksos invaders about 1590 B.C. Two young princes were the mighty heroes of the day, aided by the SHADOW HAWK of this story, a leader from the south who spurred them and fought magnificently himself at the head of his tiny group of skilled Nubian archers. The tale will be enjoyed not only for the vivid back-ground but for the organization of the army, the raids and forays, the taming of the war lion, and the dramatic siege of Neferusi...

The Polity is under attack from a melded AI entity with control of the lethal Jain technology, yet the attack seems to have no coherence. When one of Erebuss wormships kills millions on the world of Klurhammon, a high-tech agricultural world of no real tactical significance, agent Ian Cormac is sent to investigate, though he is secretly struggling to control a new ability no human being possess…and beginning to question the motives of his AI masters. Further attacks and seemingly indiscriminate slaughter ensue, but only serve to bring some of the most dangerous individuals in the Polity into the war. Mr Crane, the indefatigable brass killing machine sets out for vengeance, while Orlandine, a vastly-augmented haiman who herself controls Jain technology, seeks a weapon of appalling power and finds allies from an ancient war. Meanwhile Mika, scientist and Dragon expert, is again kidnapped by that unfathomable alien entity and dragged into the heart of things: to wake the makers of Jain technology from their five-million-year slumber. But Erebuss attacks are not so indiscriminate, after all, and could very well herald the end of the Polity itself… Views: 46
