In the third volume of Jane S. Pancher's acclaimed series, three telepathically linked brothers must unite their powers to face an enemy that could destroy them all. The magic behind the rings which power their city may be their only hope -- in an epic struggle of love and war, intrigue and magic...
As Rhomatum is plagued by political unrest and threatened by enemy city-states, three brothers--heirs to the ruling Rhomandi family, yet torn apart by jealousy, mistrust and political polarization--must overcome their personal differences in order to overthrow the cruel reign of their aged great-aunt who controls the Leythium Rings that mean life for all.
With the city of Rhomatum under the control of the three Rhomandi brothers, attention is now turned to unifying their strife-torn family and to ensuring the security of the Rhomatum Syndicate of Nodes. But the future of this loose confederation of Rhomatum's satellite worlds is in danger, with jealousy, fear, mistrust, and whispered rumors of a coming war with Mauritum, their ancient and intractable enemy, weakening them from within.

Port Eternity Their names were Lancelot, Elaine, Percivale, Gawain, Mordred, Lynette and Vivien, and they were made people, clone servants who worked aboard The Maid, an anachronistic fantasy of a spaceship. They had no idea of their origins, from those old storytapes of romance, chivalry, heroism and betrayal, until a ripple in the space-time continuum sucked The Maid and her crew into a no-man’s land from which there could be no return, and they were left alone to face a crisis which their ancient prototypes were never designed to master… Wave Without a Shore Freedom was an isolated planet, off the main spaceways and rarely visited by commercial spacers.

Mageworlds Book One: The war with the Mageworlds is over. Now it's time for the real struggle to begin. Freebooter at heart, spacer by trade, Beka Rosselin-Metadi doesn't want to hear about her father whose rugged generalship held back the Mageworlds--or her highborn mother whose leadership has held the galaxy together ever since. Beka pilots spacecraft--as far from her famous family as possible, thanks very much. Then Beka's mother is assassinated on the Senate floor, and her father offers her Warhammer, prize ship from his own freebooting youth--if she'll use it to deliver the assassins to him "off the books." Looking for assassins has a tendency to make assassins look for you. In short order Beka's arranged her own very public death and adopted a new identity; now all she has to do is leave a trail of kidnappings and corpses across five star systems, and blow the roof off the strongest private fortress in the Galaxy. If her own family can just get off her case long enough...! At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.
