Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From a young age, Targos has always been called a long shot, and regardless of any person's intent behind the moniker, Targos made the name his own, quite literally. Targos Longshot is a name that circulated the city of Tiris--the orphan who became a Shadow Knight, the youngest of the elite order to ever be awarded the Star of Tiris medal, and the one who adopted a strange surname that could never pass as noble. Even though he has not yet entered his third decade of life, Targos Longshot is something of a Tirish folktale. But that's the thing about folktales: they rarely tell the whole truth. Targos has been many things: a street rat, a bounty hunter, a Shadow Knight, and a ranger. He has served the queen of Tiris, slept on the floor of the Wolf's Snout bar, carried out knightly missions, and dyed a very expensive cloak ranger green. Targos takes great pride in his service as a knight, but he has never felt that such a life was truly his. He was drawn to the path of a ranger, and in search of an adventure that is his own, Targos Longshot leaves both Tiris and the Shadow Knight order. With his faithful and vaguely magical dog in tow, Targos travels to the neighboring city of Aridante, renowned as a mage city. Targos has faith that the Aridantean libraries will be able to tell him more about the origins of the pup, and the ranger quickly finds himself swept up in new friendships, a bounty, and the Aridante Arena Tournament. However, when tumult more than the normal festivities overtakes the arena, Targos is called back to service as a Shadow Knight. Chaos is building on Tiris's border and potentially spilling into neighboring cities. Where neither Shadow Knights nor soldiers have seen success, Targos agrees to venture and face an unknown threat that wields very old, very potent magic. Facing a new enemy and old ghosts, Targos is fortunate to not be alone--even if his companions may bear scars as deep as his own.

Book excerpt: Life is looking good for young Captain Saxon Australen. She is due to launch the Eridanison Star under her leadership with a freshly qualified crew the next day. But in a matter of hours, everything changes. Woken from her unrestful sleep by brilliant lights reflecting through the visibility port in her sleeping quarters and the heavy impact of something docking against the Alphacarn Colony, Saxon sets out to find out what’s unfolding. Grabbing her rucksack en route, she heads to the main part of the residence. Upon opening the entrance to the main part of her home she is faced with a blazing inferno. She is dragged from the burning scene by someone she finds out is Commander Kaven Farmane, her father’s second-in-command. Chaos reigns all around, and the destruction of Alphacarn by a race of pirates known as the Binforcarns is inevitable. Saxon and Commander Farmane head to the Eridanison Star hoping the new crew are ready on board. Before heading aboard, both take a last look of the out-of-control flames in the colony that was once their home. With the crew discovered not to have made it on board, it’s left to Saxon and Commander Kaven Farmane to depart from what’s left of Alphacarn in search of help and a possible new start with the hope of bringing down the Back-Eyed Pirate Galaxy’s notorious murderer Tiris Thuban.

Book excerpt: Uneasy peace. Worlds in flux. Tests of faith. The final episode was only the beginning. The Dominion War is over...or is it? Three months after the Allied victory against the invaders from the Gamma Quadrant, a surprise attack awakens the fear of renewed hostilities. At the same time, a senseless murder sets a space station commander on a path that will test the limits of her faith...while a strange discovery within the plasma storms of the Badlands propels an old soldier toward a rendezvous with destiny. Elsewhere, amidst the ruins of an ancient civilization, a young man is about to embark on a dangerous quest to fill the hole in his life—one left by the loss of his father. So begins the unprecedented, authorized continuation of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine®, springing from the seven-year television odyssey of Captain Benjamin Sisko and his crew aboard a Federation starbase at the edge of the final frontier. Following the serial format and evolving character arcs that were the hallmarks of the TV series, the new Deep Space Nine novels pick up where the show left off, daring to imagine what happened after the final episode. Now the first five tales of that critically acclaimed storyline are collected in one massive volume. Originally published as the two-part Avatar, Abyss, Demons of Air and Darkness, and the novella Horn and Ivory, Twist of Faith revisits the aftermath of the Dominion War, the pivotal planet Bajor, its mysterious connection to the timeless Prophets of the wormhole, as well as the familiar faces, new friends, and uncertain allies whose fates intertwine at the crossroads of the galaxy. With an introduction by New York Times bestselling author David R. George III (Mission: Gamma—Twilight; The Lost Era: Serpents Among the Ruins; the Crucible trilogy), Twist of Faith takes the Deep Space Nine saga to a new level, exploring what was left behind and what awaits beyond.
