Yuri Herrera does not simply write about the border between Mexico and the United States and those who cross it. He explores the crossings and translations people make in their minds and language as they move from one country to another, especially when there's no going back. Traversing this lonely territory is Makina, a young woman who knows only too well how to survive in a violent, macho world. Leaving behind her life in Mexico to search for her brother, she is smuggled into the USA carrying a pair of secret messages - one from her mother and one from the Mexican underworld.

"Honor the Code and you'll rest in your next life!" they said . . . "It'll be fun!" they said . . . Now why didn't they tell me I'd have to get married and be responsible for a whole Noble Family of my own, with a bunch of obligations and all the crap I have to deal with now!? Could I get reborn back into a Hunter again, please!?

Epicenters have activated all over the planet, and the Rifts are behaving unpredictably. It might seem time for humanity to unite before this shared threat, but there are too many people who care about nothing but their own interests!

It seems Irkutsk Oblast is getting a little too crowded for our hero. Yes, he has found his home here, for now deprived of caring feminine hands. Yes, nearby is the Epicenter, a perfect training ground. But the trouble is, the young baron has begun to draw attention from the powers that be, who plan to use Galaxius and his capabilities for their own—not always humane—ends . . .As our refined aristocrat of a hero would say: "Screw it, good luck to 'em!"

Hallo! Mein Name ist Max, und ich bin einer der Auserwählten. Was ist der erste Gedanke, der Ihnen in den Sinn kommt, wenn Sie diese Worte lesen?

Es leben 4,5 Mio. Menschen aus den Ländern der ehemaligen UdSSR in Deutschland - die größte Community und vielleicht die spannendste. Sie sind russlanddeutsch, jüdisch, russisch, ukrainisch oder tschetschenisch. Sie kamen als Spätaussiedler, jüdische Kontingentflüchtlinge, Kriegsflüchtlinge, Studenten oder Ehepartner.

On March 10, 1920, in Pachuca, Mexico, the Compañía de Santa Gertrudis may have committed murder. The alert was first raised at six in the morning: A fire was tearing through the El Bordo mine.

Yet when the mine was opened six days later, the death toll was not 10 but 87. And there were seven survivors.

Kai has been doing well in achieving his goal of taking over the entire Avlaim region. Step by step, he has been advancing on this difficult road, but even this is only the beginning. Now he has to work on bettering not only himself, but his entire organization as this is the only way to obtain enough resources and power to find and save his friends. But change is not an easy thing, and few people like it. With his actions, Kai disrupted centuries of stability and drew too much attention to the Avlaim region.

To get it back, he will have to overcome pain and suffering. But he knows it will be worth it. He is no longer a pawn in the world of cultivation.

A great battle for divine heritage will begin, and a brilliant cultivator like Kai will definitely not stay out of it.

The closer one gets to Heaven, the cruel and harsher the worlds and their inhabitants become. But Kai was never the type that gives up easily. He broke free from his shackles, healed all his wounds, and traveled far from the city of slaves in which fate had tossed him as if to test his skill and will. After a successful and very cunning scheme, Kai and his team reached the Cloud Abode. There, they’ll have to either prove their worth as cultivators or perish.

The military showdowns, the insectoids, the search for the Gates of Ecumene, and the pursuit of Jiang Dao are all in the past. Earth, too. Kai found himself in a new and unfamiliar world, one unlike anything he has ever seen before. Heavily injured and alone, he takes a new step on his path of cultivation. What awaits him in a world where humans are considered nothing more than ordinary beasts.
