The Aurora Chronicles 1-7.

An Auroral Flame by R. Peter Ubtrent.

The Aurora Chronicles Book One.

Aurora is inquisitive, stubborn, and has far too much courage for one so young. She is also a half-Elf orphan, left at the Monastery of St. Verruchts by the Satyr Stiz with two bags of gold and nothing else. She grows up thinking that she is just one of the other young aspirants, with her cropped hair and baggy robes. When she starts to develop into a beautiful young half-Elf female, things start going wrong. Banned from the library for reading the forbidden magic books, she is taken under the wing of the youngest of the Brothers who begins to teach her the bow and the sword. She soon learns that not only is she a girl but she can cast magic and with the help of the Satyr Stiz, she begins to learn that she isn’t an ordinary half-Elf at all. Thus begins the adventures of Aurora Leafblade and her bumpy journey into womanhood as well as the dangerous world of Black and White Magic and of half-beasts and danger the likes of which she never had to deal with in the safety of the monastery.

The Ardor of Devotion by R. Peter Ubtrent.

The Aurora Chronicles Book Two.

Aurora’s quest to find Brother Hundfanger, the half-Elf she thinks she loves, is not going nearly as well as she anticipated. In fact, it’s been one disaster after another. If she isn’t fighting off Angelicus or Stone Giants, then she is accidentally destroying towns and cities as she moves Warm-side in her attempt to get to The Barrier Mountains and the woods of the Elves. With Tzigana the half-Ogre cleric, Pyros the Dragon-Born fighter, Deirdre the Halfling thief, and of course Stiz the Satyr, she is becoming more and more powerful as an Imbe and yet, she has no idea why she is so important. To add to her problems, the gods and goddesses have decreed that she needs to decide the fate of The Land of the Five Rivers and do it sooner rather than later and she wants no part of that whatsoever. And then there is the issue with her realization that she just might love someone else more than Brother Hundfanger and what does she do with that…..

The Blackest Flame by R. Peter Ubtrent.

The Aurora Chronicles Book Five.

Aurora has changed time. And not just a little bit. She’s completely changed everything in The Land of the Five Rivers. It’s not even called that anymore and the worst part is that no one she knew before, exists. Man is the dominant species and the half-creatures and were-creatures have been herded into an area out of which they are not allowed to travel on penalty of death. So now what…?

Aurora is stuck in the world of her own making and as it tears itself apart around her, she must face her worst fears.

Dark Pilgrim Series 1-6.

Dark Pilgrim Rising by R. Peter Ubtrent.

Dark Pilgrim Series 1-6.

7,680 years ago, humanity was imprisoned for over 2,500 years by the shape-shifting Dwad-Mehstiv. The Noble Houses arose out of the ashes of the Wars of Conquest, The Church of the Blessed Prophets arose out of the Wars of Religious Independence from the Drek, and the Imperium arose to bind the Houses and The Church. When the Emperor of the Imperium is assassinated, chaos descends on the human community and The Church of the Blessed Prophets begins the brutal road back to its former commanding position while an enemy long forgotten over the eons returns to exact revenge. This is the world into which Ailanthus and Tethys find themselves, imprisoned in one of the most fearsome penal colonies in the Imperium. With the chance to finally escape at hand, the two men and their friends begin to understand that their roles are far larger than they ever thought possible.

Review by Nathan Alexander: 5.0 out of 5 Stars Great Sci-fi Read. Ubtrent has written another well-crafted and readable sci-fi adventure that keep me up all night so that I could finish. Set in a future far different than we would ever expect, Dark Pilgrim Rising is a fast paced, multiple sub-plot adventure that carries the reader to worlds excellently described, to believable aliens, and to characters that jump out of the pages at you with their realism. I can hardly wait for the next book of the series. This will prove to be a classic!

Seed of Power by R. Peter Ubtrent.

Dark Pilgrim Series 2-6.

The escape was successful! Ailanthus, Tethys, and their friends have escaped from the penal colony and the first place they find themselves is the black-market planet of Kali Prime, home to some of the worst criminals and cheats not locked up. Wanting to ditch their stolen transport for something a little less obvious, they quickly learn that life outside K’ar Krack’a isn’t all that different than it was inside. Meanwhile, Rohini and his spy master begin their attempts to hold the Imperium together from the rebellion boiling over at the heavy-handed methods of the new emperor. The Dei Glorium and her High Confessio of The Church of the Blessed Prophets begin their effort to destroy that which they want to save and Lord Cardinal Cebrenia Caroli begins her bumpy road toward revenge.

Review by Susan Uttendorfsky (Owner, Adirondack Editing). 5.0 out of 5 Stars. Superb series! Seed of Power, the second book in the Dark Pilgrim series, is an astonishing, fast-moving blend of politics and science fiction. The two main human characters have now been joined by several members of various species. As this rag-tag collection of strays tries desperately to avoid recapture by the dogged Imperium, the religious-political thread twists, and turns with lightning speed. With the pieces of the newest Emperor ready to be shoveled into his coffin and the next heir determined not to be part of the Imperium, I can’t even begin to guess how the next book in the series, Dark Throne, will play out. Mr. Ubtrent’s imagination has generated a fantastic reading experience. I couldn’t put it down!

Review by Nathan Alexander: 5.0 out of 5 stars Great continuation. Wow. This just keeps getting better. Book two, Seed of Power, answers many questions raised in the first book, yet raises others, leaving the reader wanting more. The plot lines advance very well and the characters have a depth to them that is real and tangible. The breakneck pace, lyrical beauty, and astonishing scope of the universe wherein the story is set give the series a Frank Herbert-like essence. The growing conflict between The Church of the Blessed Prophets and the remnants of the Imperium is wonderfully contrasted with the growing conflict between the Dei Glorium and her High Confessio as well as the tension between Ailanthus and Rohini. I can hardly wait for book three to come out.

Dark Throne by R. Peter Ubtrent.

Dark Pilgrim Series 3-6.

The virus is sweeping through the human community. The Drek war machine continues to press forward, capturing and converting millions of humans. And the Ynos begin their military attacks in earnest, destroying Imperium forces at will. This is the Imperium that Ailanthus has inherited as the new emperor and he is making it perfectly clear that he doesn’t want anything to do with it. Ailanthus will be betrayed; he will lose two close friends and his responsibilities as the new emperor will make it harder and harder for him to remain sane. Meanwhile, Lord Cardinal Cebrenia is working ever closer to control of The Church of the Blessed Prophets and her revenge and the Lord Cardinal Nerodia is getting closer and closer to insanity as all his hard work begins to slip through his fingers.

Review by Susan Uttendorfsky (Owner, Adirondack Editing): 5.0 out of 5 Stars. Ubtrent hits another homer! The galaxy flees in vain before the vengeance of the Ynos. Four thousand years ago, their peaceful cousins were viciously hunted down and exterminated in a glut of greed. Now they have returned, seemingly undefeatable and hell-bent on destroying everyone in their path. The reluctant Emperor finds himself the military leader of not one, but two distinct species, at war with each other. Persistent and conflicting memories from both groups vie for his brain’s attention. But it’s the present he must force himself to focus on, even though unremitting discoveries of atrocities committed on his behalf also threaten his mental stability. The core group of supporters who escaped with him from the penal colony, with a few new additions, is fragmenting quickly. Intrigues, betrayal, murder, and insanity stalk the Imperium, the religious Houses, and the new Restoration. It’s anyone’s guess what happens next. Dark Throne, the third book in the Dark Pilgrim series, is excellent. I highly recommend this extraordinary series to anyone who enjoys science fiction or political intrigue.

Review by Nathan Alexander: 5.0 out of 5 stars Another winner from Ubtrent. R. Peter. Ubtrent continues his fantastic series with Dark Throne, answering many questions and raising others that leave the reader spell-bound. His descriptions are awesome and his prose flows freely, giving a quality and finesse to his books that is breath-taking. His sub-plots interweave with his main plot like a professional flower-arrangement, leaving the reader craving more. This is turning into a great series and will be, I’m certain, a Sci-Fi classic in no time. Can’t want for the next installment.

Dark Enlightenment by R. Peter Ubtrent.

Dark Pilgrim Series 4-6.

The end is near. Hundreds of planets have been laid waste by the Drek and the virus. The Restoration begins in earnest its campaign to destroy The Church of the Blessed Prophets. Lord Comte Mishi’s rebellion against what’s left of the Imperium gains solid ground as the Lord Cardinal Nerodia presents the Lord Marshall Bhagavan in chains. Ailanthus’ band of friends grows smaller and smaller with death, betrayal and self-sacrifice, while his responsibilities grow larger and larger and he learns fully the distorted history of humans and Dwad-Mehstiv and what he must do to save the last remnant of humanity. Thus continues the saga of Ailanthus and Tethys, two friends caught up in a universe that wants more from them than they are willing to give.

Review by Susan Uttendorfsky (Owner, Adirondack Editing): 5.0 out of 5 Stars. A fantastic series keeps continuing! Ubtrent has compiled another crowd-pleaser with this fourth title in the Dark Pilgrim series! The exceptional writing incorporates rich, vibrant details and imaginative, note-worthy characters. Confusion and chaos rule – each character starts out with a firm purpose but is forced to adjust quickly to deal with unexpected complications. A subtle touch of humor pervades; a large, insectoid assassin frustrated with his error thinks, “It was enough to make him molt right there on the spot.” This transitional book has a little less action than the previous volumes but is jam-packed with information and the plot twists will make any reader of this series gasp with delight and shock. Ubtrent has a first-rate ability to weave multiple sub-plots throughout the series, each of which branches into additional scenarios. His accomplished introduction of new, distinctive characters as preceding ones meet their unexpected demise continues to enchant this reader.

Dark Redemption by R. Peter Ubtrent.

Dark Pilgrim Series 5-6.

The F’gat Ynos have decimated planet after planet, leaving behind nothing but the dead. Ailanthus, Tethys, Xylella and Rohini now must bring what remains of the Noble Houses and humanity together, to begin the final battle that will decide whether humanity will survive or fall under the callous extermination of the Ynos. Cebrenia’s plans to marry the emperor and bring her revenge against Nerodia are nearing completion, but her possession of a Thrumbo Worm will soon be discovered and her life will take a turn she had not expected. Nerodia and Mishi continue to move their rebellion forward, oblivious to the fact that there isn’t much of humanity left to rule. Book five of the series begins the end of humanity’s hegemony over the galaxy and brings to a crisis the very foundations of St. Aurum Gossomer and The Church of the Blessed Prophets, leaving disaster and chaos in its wake.

Review by Susan Uttendorfsky (Owner, Adirondack Editing): 5.0 out of 5 Stars. Another stellar performance from Ubtrent. All the political segments in the galaxy, religious or military, are dissolving rapidly in this fifth book of the Dark Pilgrim Series, wrecked almost beyond recognition by the vindictive Ynos and a mysterious virus that only attacks humans. Multiple persons claim leadership roles without knowledge of each other. The most cataclysmic weapon in the galaxy could save humanity and all the other species living with them. But will the unenthusiastic Emperor figure out how to deploy it in time to thwart the Ynos in their quest for complete eradication? While some splinter groups of his original clique unknowingly work in concert with his scheme, others have his premature demise as their objective. Which band will accomplish their plan first? This six-book series begins to coalesce into a grand finale, but I’m sure there’s plenty more action and twists to come!

Fallen Pilgrim by R. Peter Ubtrent.

Dark Pilgrim Series 6-6.

The Imperium Navy is but a shattered remnant of its former glory. The Drek, Druzsni and Kroor have all been attacked and decimated by the F’gat Ynos. Only a handful of humans have survived and most of them live in simple squalor on Earth with the Lord Cardinal Alos Alos Napaj, away from the ever-prying eyes of the Ynos. If Ailanthus’ plan is to succeed, now is the time for its fulfillment. The Thrumbo Worms are being collected but the Guiders, under the tutelage of Christl, are not ready. Thus ends the saga of Ailanthus and his friends as they fight to the bitter end in a hopeless attempt to destroy the Ynos before they destroy everything.

Susan Uttendorfsky (Owner, Adirondack Editing): 5.0 out of 5 Stars. A glorious ending to a fabulous series! Wow. I just finished the last book in the Dark Pilgrim Series. While the ending to the Ynos threat is certainly explosive and riveting, the ending to the series itself is supremely satisfying. It ends in an unexpected yet absolutely gratifying wrap-up that is just perfect. I could go on for several more sentences, repeating my compliments for the writing, characters, and descriptions which I mentioned in previous reviews, but I think I’ll just stop with “Wow”.

The Va’Shan Trilogy.

A Requiem For Caelus by R. Peter Ubtrent.

The Va’Shan Trilogy: Books 1-3.

When the young Lo’thar Mistshrouder of the Fikir Clan saved the even younger Lorelei Heartstealer of the Kar clan, all hailed it as the day when the two clans could end their ages-old war and usher in an era of peace and harmony. It was simple dumb-luck that Caelus was chosen at that time to be the next planet Suppressed by the mighty Va’Shan Empire. Lorelei was taken to serve in the pleasure Sanctum of Kral, leader of the Va’Shan. Lo’thar, together with Lorelei’s best friend Maegil and the Dragor Jo’tal, are all that is left behind and they quickly discover that their magical abilities are no match for the advanced weapons arrayed against them. Thus begins the three-book saga of Lo’thar, Lorelei, Maegil, and Jo’tal, caught up in the vile and corrupt world of a galactic empire they never even knew existed.

The Va’Shan Trilogy: Books 2-3
(Author Is Working On New Cover)

Caelus has been destroyed. All that is left of the once numerous inhabitants are Lo’thar, Maegil, Jo’tal, the younglings, and Lorelei. Lorelei is trapped in the Inner Sanctum of the Archus Superus, forced to use her telepathic skills to pretend to service him on a now nightly basis, not foreseeing that her supposed skill in love-making is attracting the attention of those who wish her harm for daring to become Kral’s favorite. The others are trapped with Ramstar on his run-down freighter, forced to understand a world without magic and without what would appear to be a moral compass. Driven by a desire to find Lorelei, Lo’thar and Meagil must part ways with Jo’tal, whose all embracing passion for revenge will drive him to killing without remorse. Set against an empire ready to crumble from within, Cl’ar’s Grace takes our heroes far passed their comfort-zones and into a world of piracy, thievery, betrayal and violence the likes of which they never knew existed. And then there is Cl’ar….

The Sslithax Heresy Series.

Sacrifice by R. Peter Ubtrent.

The Sslithax Heresy Series Book One.

When humanity first set out to explore the stars, they discovered that they were alone, for they never ran into any other intelligent life-forms. Because of this, human religion came to the conclusion that God had only made man and all else was the creation of Satan. Thus, when human warships finally encountered Sslithax warships, the stage was set for a war of unbridled brutality. The wars raged for decades and in the process, humanity split between those who professed a belief in religion and those who did not. Humanity became more and more proficient at making war and when they encountered other non-human species, they warred with them also. Soon, people began to believe that waging war was what humanity was best at and had been created for. Little did they know that they were closer to the truth then they realized. This is the epic tale of four individuals from four different cultures, forced to work together as they discover that what they had been told all these eons was not necessarily the truth.

Eternity’s Handmaiden (First Edition) by R. Peter Ubtrent.

Alexis Locke gave the first forty-five years of her life to an agency that never gave a second thought to putting her in harm’s way. After fifteen years of voluntarily retirement and seclusion, she is forced to investigate the seemingly accidental deaths of five unrelated scientists, one of whom turns out to be the son she had to give up at birth. Following the clues that lead her from the mega-biotech companies in Kasakhstan to the orbiting O’Neill Colonies, Alexis quickly learns that she is being set up, that her death is wanted by many and that the deaths she’s investigating have a far bigger connection that anyone ever thought possible, eventually forcing her to question her own existence and purpose. And with that questioning, Alexis soon sees that there is a plan as work handed down from the future from which she can not escape.

Review by Jessica Flippen: 5.0 out of 5 Stars. The concepts of this novel are thought-provoking, causing the reader to question the morality of man’s advancements, and humanity’s very existence. A gifted artist, Ubtrent paints a picture of words. His descriptions of untouched landscapes are without flaw. And just as unconquerable as the book’s rugged terrain is the dominative nature of Alexis herself. Schematically brilliant, it leads the reader through a journey of purpose and builds to an insurmountable conclusion. Twisting our conception of cyclical time, it ends where the story begins.

Review by Genevieve Stephens: 5.0 out of 5 Stars. A Must Read!!! The author did an excellent job on the difficult task of portraying time travel. I foundEternity’s Handmaiden constantly leaving me wanting to read more. There were timeswhen I wanted to go to bed but I simply could not put the book down. I’m lookingforward to Ubtrent’s next book whenever it may be published. Basically, Eternity’sHandmaiden is a must-read book for science fiction fans and, pretty much, anyone whoenjoys a lot of excitement. Check it out for yourself.

Review by Nathan Alexander: 5.0 out of 5 Stars. Fast-paced futuristic adventure. Set in a future that is not that far away, in either concept or time, this adventure/mystery takes you on a ride whose ending is just one of the many plot twists you’ll experience. Build around a strong lead character and set in a series of worlds one hopes never become reality, Eternity’s Handmaiden will leave you wondering whether the technology we so fervently seek is truly to our mutual benefit. Excellent read. I’d recommend it to everyone.
