【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Vigilance【電子書籍】[ Cy St. Clair ]

＜p＞When Beckett’s team was chosen for Project Paradigm he knew his life would never be the same. Genetic manipulation tended to do that to a person. Against all likelihood, his entire team survived the experimental hybridization process that left them with the ability to shift into the same eight foot saber-toothed cat form that their enemy, the Lysasti, could assume at will. With that victory, he thought perhaps the war might begin to go their way.＜/p＞ ＜p＞What he hadn’t expected was for the war to end while he was still learning to use his new abilities, turning his team’s existence from an asset into a liability the Alliance of Terra Planets could ill afford. With the ink still drying on the Project’s kill orders, Beckett’s team had staged their own deaths, accepting they would never see Earth again. Instead, they turned their sights outward, to planets never before seen by human eyes.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Five years later, Beck’s life might not be all he once thought it would be, but he’s got no complaints. The team has managed to carve out a name for itself in freelance data and property retrieval. Yes, most of their clients walked on the shady side of the law but they paid their bills on time and didn’t ask too many questions.＜/p＞ ＜p＞At least that was Beck’s opinion until their latest case led them to Lysa, home planet to the Lysasti. A planet they’d studiously avoided ever since the end of the war and the place where all of Beck’s beliefs about Project Paradigm and the Lysasti would be tested. Where his team’s place in the universe would unravel...leaving him with more questions than answers.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Chief among them: what to do with Ciro, the Lysasti who had quickly become both the bane and salvation of Beck’s existence. Ciro who along with his brother, Etan, ran a legitimate trading operation. Ciro who maintained at least one unfortunate friendship that would lead them to cross paths with Beck’s team. A meeting that through fate or old-fashioned bad luck, would see them all swept up into a web of intrigue that would stretch across the galaxy.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Each Project Paradigm novel can be read as a stand alone and contains its own HEA＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞In 'De kleine Karel de Grote' scheidt professor Peter Rietbergen de man van de mythe. Karel de Grote, Charlemagne, Carolus Magnus: talloze Europeanen kennen zijn naam ? van Engeland tot Hongarije, van Spanje tot Denemarken. Het koninkrijk dat hij erfde, breidde hij door verovering van een reeks andere staten uit tot een imperium dat vrijwel geheel West- en Centraal-Europa omvatte. Om die toestand te bestendigen, dwong hij in het jaar 800 de paus hem tot keizer te kronen. Maar de zeer uiteenlopende landen verenigde hij vooral door een gewiekste economische en infrastructurele politiek, alsmede door de macht die hij gaf aan de Kerk van Rome. Zo werd tijdens zijn regering de christelijke cultuur de basis van dit werelddeel. Geen wonder dat Karel de Grote na zijn dood mythische proporties kreeg en gezien wordt als een van de grondleggers van de eenheid van Europa.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
