How Molly has survived military life this long, we'll never know. When her implanted computer interface is hacked by a nascent AI, Molly has to escape. Between the militaries' high tech security shields and advanced personnel protocols, it makes getting out in one piece for Molly nigh on impossible...And her biggest problem? The swiftest and most efficient way to get out is also the most embarrassing.

My dad is obviously freaked when he sees the tat, but he won't discuss it. So, I do what any stubborn redheaded lass would - I ignore all advice and fly to the Emerald Isle to get answers. And yeah...you know that saying about hindsight being 20/20? True story.

Evelyn enjoyed living a nice quiet life in an anarchic pirate port, far from the world she’d once conquered. Then came an attack by mercenaries that made her angry. By the time the dust settled, she had a group of former slaves which she’d freed, her djinn assistant had convinced several of the women that they should join Evelyn’s brand-new harem, and she was looking for a new home, likely aboard a ship.

Fighting for her life in a death-match is the perfect cover. The Valerie's Elites Boxed Set includes the entire series at a great price! It started as a simple intel mission. Then it turned sideways. Valerie goes off mission, trusting her gut and wits more than her physical abilities to get on the inside, to help bring justice to the slaves and the downtrodden. She is, after all, the justice enforcer. In the process, she finds herself teaming up with locals to take down an empire, right a cascade of wrongs, and kick some serious ass.

Finally Made It
I’ve listened to both series six or eight times. Not sure exactly. Audible is awesome! I can’t get enough of BA. I haven’t listened to the side books so there are annoying gaps. I plan to pick up a few during the next pass. I think I’d lose my mind trying to keep track of all of them. The best news I just heard is that the Queen Bitch may return. I can’t wait! Time once again for “Death Becomes Her”! Thanks Michael!

still a lot of loose strings but I'm satisfied
several stories have popped up in the KU that were not acknowledged in this book. which I wanted to see those people. however, they may still show up in a collaboration of the magic side of the Ku just not in endgame... Maybe. I honestly miss Emily's take on the book and wanted her to say something about it finally ending as she read so much of it and created so many character voices throughout the years. I understand some things had to happen answer me the ending was bittersweet but promising. thank you Michael and Ali for giving me a story to get involved with in the last X amount of years! and here's hoping we have more!
