Book excerpt: Part Space Opera, part hard Science Fiction, Lightstep ties faster-than-light travel to its obvious time-bending realities, and wraps it all in adventure, action, and a universe alive with alien vistas. Alien worlds, a star-spanning empire, and rogues and rebels seeking a weapon hidden in the transmissions of a radio drama from Earth thousands of years ago. It's a mix that sounds like it couldn't work, but visionary creator Miloš Slavković brings it all together in a seemingly effortless romp. January Lee is of royal descent, part of the ruling class that lives out their lives on accelerated, "Lightstepped" worlds, where a single day is a lifetime on a normal planet. But her "holy ailment," which allows her to see the truth behind the Primogenitor's lies, marks her for banishment to the outer worlds. But an unexpected rescue sets January on a course to overthrow the empire her family founded and change the galaxy forever. Collects issues #1-#5 of the series.

The imperial palace―full of ambitious royals, sly gossip, and unforeseen perils―is perhaps the most dangerous place in the Empire of Zhaon. Komor Yala, the lady-in-waiting to the princess of the vanquished kingdom of Khir, has only her wits and a hidden blade to protect herself and her charge, who was sacrificed in marriage to secure a tenuous peace. Soon, Komor Yala and the Khir princess find themselves pawns in the deadly schemes for the throne. And when the emperor falls ill, a far bloodier game begins... A single hidden blade could alter the course of history in this epic tale of ambition, honor, and sacrifice, perfect for fans of The Tiger's Daughter and The Grace of Kings.

Download or read book The Lightstep written by John Dickinson and published by Random House. This book was released on 2009 with total page 530 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: HISTORICAL FICTION. There was once no greater advocate for revolution than Michel Wery. No voice spoke louder, was more impassioned, on the need for a new order, for an end to disparity and injustice - not just in France but throughout the continent. Strange, then, that such a man should find himself in the employ of the Prince Bishop of Erzberg, as scout and spymaster for a regime at absolute odds with his ideals. But time has taught Wery harsh lessons: the Terror, the endless wrangling, the petty motivations of France's new ruling class, and the atrocities carried out in freedom's name - all have left their mark. Revolution has spawned a monster, and Wery has vowed to thwart its march. Set against a backdrop of political thrust and counter-thrust, of lavish balls and shadowy cults, and to the rhythm of incessant canon-fire, "The Lightstep" is an epic story of love and honour, and a stunningly realised account of one of the defining moments in modern European history.
