AFTER THE WORLD DIED, THE LEGEND WAS REBORN. When civilisation shuddered and died, Robert Stokes lost everything, including his wife and his son. The ex-cop retreated into the woods near Nottingham, to live off the land and wait to join his family. As the world descended into a new Dark Age, he turned his back on it all. The foreign mercenary and arms dealer De Falaise sees England is ripe for conquest. He works his way up the country, forging an army and pillaging as he goes. When De Falaise arrives at Nottingham and sets up his new dominion, Robert is drawn reluctantly into the resistance. From Sherwood he leads the fight and takes on the mantle of the world's greatest folk hero. The Hooded Man and his allies will become a symbol of freedom, a shining light in the horror of a blighted world, but he can never rest: De Falaise is only the first of his kind. This omnibus collects the novels Arrowhead, Broken Arrow and Arrowland, with a new introduction by editor Jonathan Oliver. The ebook edition also exclusively collects the stories "Servitor," "Perfect Presents," and "Signs and Portents."

A novel inspired by #1 New York Times best-selling author Mark Greaney’s Audible Original drama, Armored. Joshua Duffy is a Close Protection Agent—a professional bodyguard—and he's one of the world's elite operatives. That is, he was until his last mission in Lebanon. Against all odds, Josh got his primary out alive, but the cost was high. Josh lost his lower left leg. There's not much call for an elite bodyguard with such an injury. So, Josh has to support his family working as a mall cop in New Jersey. For a man like Josh, this is purgatory on earth, but miracles can occur even in Paramus. A lucky run-in with an old comrade promises to get Josh back in the field for one last job. The UN is sending a peace mission into the Sierra Madre mountains in Mexico, an area so dangerous it's known as Espinazo del Diablo—the Devil's Spine. Only a fool would think they could broker peace between the homicidal drug cartels in the region, and only a madman would sign on to keep those fools alive.

Tricia Warren, fresh out of an overseas education, enters the real world beset with the unfinished business of her forebears. Her deceased father may have murdered his second wife, and his estate is now in a rocky state of mismanagement. Her mother's death also left the possibility that there is a family member that Tricia never knew. Fearing for her financial and personal safety, Tricia hires detectives to sort out these lingering mysteries, and as they investigate, it's clear that she faces a situation far direr than she had imagined. Her trust fund could be lost to various persons with eyes on her father's estate and claims on gambling debts he left behind. Her two step-brothers may be players in a drug ring and other shady activities, with designs of their own for the family fortune. And the circumstances of the second wife's death are disturbingly unclear. What had started out as a basic probate case has escalated into something deeply complicated and menacing, even as Tricia strives to hold onto a happy family life. Backtrack Forward is a mystery of family intrigue and dogged detective work in which the stakes are high, the clues elusive, the motives murky, and the outcome anything but obvious.
