Born of the most prominent family in Hispania, the father of Magnus Maximus squandered his part of the family fortune before his sons came of age. While his cousins lived a life of privilege, Maximus rose through the ranks of the western armies the hard way, becoming known as the “Crusher of Rebellions” for his ability to quell uprisings of the most violent order. It was this reputation which saw Maximus sent into the hard north to tame yet another heathen rebellion. Had he been of moderate ambition, his career might have ended in Britannia, but there was nothing moderate about Magnus ...

With the West divided, it was imperative that Eastern Rome become the pillar upon which the Roman Empire could lean while it recovered its strength. That’s what made the disastrous defeat suffered by Emperor Valens at the Battle of Adrianople so devastating. The folly of Julius Valens was so wide in scope and crippling in effect that it staggered the Roman mind. No matter where the story was told, the Roman people struggled to comprehend such wholesale defeat. The Emperor was dead, the eastern armies were decimated, and the victorious barbarian horde roamed unchecked across the Balkans. ...

He's a man with no conscience. A man hopelessly in love. Bastard-born gentleman Gregory Harrow has decided that the Baroness of Iliffe will be his and his alone. It matters not what the young widow is hiding from, who he must kill, or what lies he shall weave to have his way.

Old Shoe thought he’d seen it all. Having settled in Arizona two decades previous, when Cochise was still taking trophies off white folks, the arrival of the steel pony was supposed to settle all that lawlessness. A silver strike in the Dragoon Mountains changed that, drawing desperate men from every walk of life to the upstart mining camp of Tombstone. That’s when an outsider with poor intentions showed up, asking for a price on land that wasn’t for sale.

Many good men are already in the ground, and some bad ones too. The gravediggers and coffin makers are sore for the work, which has some folks questioning whether Tombstone is even worth rebuilding after a devastating fire swept across the town. With blood flowing down the San Pedro, the question is no longer if the other shoe will drop, but whose body will tumble the next time the unmistakable crack of gunfire echoes down Allen Street.

The bloodbath out at the Shoemaker Ranch has the entire county on edge just as Bob Paul finally takes office. As the body count rises, the Virginian begins to question his relationship with the Cowboys. Nor is he the only man of influence questioning their connection to Newman Clanton and his den of thieves. With less political coverage north of the border and the rurales turning up the heat south of it, the last thing the Cowboys can afford to do is go to war with the Earps.

Wyatt Earp was a gambler and a pimp long before he wore the tin star. Big Nose Kate was the daughter of a Hungarian doctor who emigrated in good standing to the Midwest when a series of unfortunate events turned her out. Doc Holliday was a gentleman from Georgia who was so well born as to be educated in Philadelphia when a diagnosis of tuberculosis forced him on an unlikely odyssey. In the Old West, no one was only one thing. Everyone had a past, and few were defined by it.

The Gadsden Purchase finished what the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo started. The old Spanish presidio at Tucson – known affectionately to locals as the “Old Pueblo” – was declared American territory on June 8, 1854. Few noticed. There were only 500 citizens at the time, and a scant few were white. Most Americans looked at the dusty old presidio, situated a day’s ride north of the Mexico border and surrounded on all sides by as many mountain ranges as hostile Apache war bands, and saw only a sweatbox populated by too many undesirables to make it worth their while. A more learned ...

Travel with Steve, doomed for eternity to serve as hell’s Mr. Fixit, on a wild ride through the circles of hell in this best-selling, humorous fantasy series.

Here Gretchen is still on the loose and Archie is still hospitalized after his ploy to catch her went spectacularly wrong. They've entered a detente of sorts: Archie agrees not to kill himself if she agrees not to kill anyone else. But suddenly there's something else to contend with that might be worse - a zealous fan of Gretchen's, paying homage to the Beauty Killer by luring Archie and reporter Susan Ward to the scene of a grisly murder.

On February 13, 2017, two teenage friends went for a walk in the woods just outside the small city of Delphi, Indiana. They should have been safe—but Liberty German and Abigail Williams never made it home. The next day, searchers found their bodies in a clearing. The two girls had been brutally murdered.
