Looks at how digitalization has changed the way we produce and interact, and the implications for working classes and countries of the Global South.

It's amazing what you can do when you have no heart.Things haven't exactly been going Lieutenant Lucius "Luce" Bollhams way.Sure he beat back the Gythraul Legions, the forces he's trained are chasing them across the Twilit Kingdom. But Luce can't even celebrate the victory since the Queen decided to bury a soul-sucking artifact in his chest.With the Gormstone enslaving his will and eating his emotions, Luce discovers there really is no rest for wicked. Growing more ruthless and poisoning everything around him, Luce is desperate to break free, but how do you fight back when your own body has become a prison? And what do you do when part of you, that thing that wears your skin in your worst moments, starts liking the new arrangement?Alienating his allies and forced to serve a Queen who's sanity is questionable, Luce will be lucky to survive the next phase of his campaign. Trust flew out the window with the Gormstone, but new alliances are forming and everyone is forced to take sides in a conflict that may reach much further than the invading Gythraul.And in the midst of it all this remains a man who only wants a cause worth fighting for.He might be looking for a while, if he lives...

Two-thousand years of war just met its match.For Lieutenant Lucius "Luce" Bollham, things have been going from bad to worse since the caves of Afghanistan. First, ostracized by his brothers in arms, now the possibility of being tried as a war criminal. You'd think getting away from it all would be a relief, but where you escape to matters.Luce's "escape" takes him to the magical Twilit Kingdom of Other-Realm where he finds himself thrust into the midst of a war nearly two thousand years old.And he thought Afghanistan was tough...Caught between mind-bending sorcery, ancient grudges, and intrigues among aeon-old beings, Luce must gather the forces of the kingdom and revolutionize their idea of combat before enemy legions march across the land. Witchery and swordplay pair with assault rifles and asymmetrical warfare to stop an adversary who seeks nothing less than utter conquest.Oh, and there is a woman--when is there not? Except she's a centuries-old warrior-sorceress with blood under her nails and fire on her lips. Bryth is just the kind of gal you want around in a world where curses can kill and dark things stir.In the midst of all the madness, Luce has to decide what it is he is actually fighting for.Out of the frying pan and into the inferno, as they say."Aaron's writing reminds us that we read for the journey, not the destination. Shades of Tolkien can be glimpsed in this beautifully written, beautifully imagined epic war-story. It's Call of Duty meets Lord of the Rings. If you love military fantasy, don't miss this trilogy." -USA Today Bestselling Author, AL Knorr.
