Star Wars Leagacy of the Force Bloodlines
Greetings, Legacy of the force is a series of novels from the expansion of the Star Wars universe that is written by a number of writers. Bloodlines is the second book and is written by Karen Traviss, who wrote the Star Wars Republic Commando books. The plot centers decades after the collapse of the Empire and around roughly four different strands of storyline that role into one. Some of the original characters are in it such as Luke, Leia, Han and others but it focuses on their children mainly. Han Solo's cousin Thracken, who is the president of the world Corellia has some previous grudges against Han and puts a bounty on his head, Solo is made even more unpopular by the world Correlia of which is his homeland and Coursant, the head of the Galactic Alliance are on the verge of war due to a conflict over the right to arm themselves.
Meanwhile a seventy one year old Boba Fett is looking for redemption due to his body failing. In his race to save himself he tries to find the cure for clones such as Boba and fix his relationship with his fifty year old daughter which he left when she was two years old. Han Solo's So, Jacen is turning to the Dark side like his grandfather, Ankian Skywalker or his Sith identity Darth Vader due to a secret relationship he has with his wife and daughter. Luke is concerned for his son Ben, who is being mentored by Jacen and fears that Ben could be turned to the Dark also. This novel was very like the style of Traviss' others and so therefore a good book. It is also interesting to see how things are going after the films. The fourth chapter of the Invisible Agents is up in Warehouse 17.

Red Steel 2
Greetings, Red Steel 2 is the sequel of the first game I reviewed on this blog. The two plots are different, as well as the characters meaning the name is about the only thing that connects them. While the characters and story isn't the best, it is a relatively fun game to play but it did have a few issues with bugs. The story revolves around a small village called Caldera which is attacked by a gang called the Jackals, who receive orders from their leader, Payne. The main character is a mix between a Cowboy and a Samaria , known only as the Hero. Along with allies such as Tamiko, he defeats the Jackals and their leader to uncover the true source of the threat. A individual named Shinjiro, who has been ordering the killing of the Heroes' clan, the graphics are done in the style of a cartoon giving it a new appearance to the Red Steel series. Overall, it's a good enough game to play and is worth a shot if you haven't got any games to play. The third chapter of the Invisible Agents is up in Warehouse 17.

The Invisisble Agents ch 2
Greetings, the next chapter of my latest book Invisible Agents is now up. This book introduces most of the characters for the next novels, and with the characters some background to enhance their story. The Lutionn collection is quite big and will probably confuse due to the amount of characters and plots. Hopefully with time, the characters will become more clear and their stories easy to follow. The second chapter of the Invisible Agents is up in Warehouse 17.

The Invisible Agents
Greetings, before I get involved in talking about my new book I would like to thank Mark for the new banner. It is time I introduced the fourth book in the Lutionn collection. It is called Invisible agents and does set up the majority of characters in the collection of books while continuing on with previous heroes and villains. By the first three books, especially the second and third, it is apparent that these events are not intended to be taken too seriously in terms of plausibility. This should justify Lutionn's new style of villains and it will be explained near the end of the novel, how they are as they appear. This book takes, roughly a year after the events of Shepard. I hope you enjoy it.
Ohh and bit of a mistake I made in Chief Constable Johnson's story, while writing Shepard I had said that Johnston had earned the title Chief Constable during the Great Disease when his mentor Joseph G Turner had died. Turner's true identity is the Ulisiptien Klintan, seeing as Johnston is fifty in the first book and I had described he was thirty when he received his high position, I had to give him the title while Joseph was alive in order to keep the his age right. So in the third book which is set in 2004, he has the title before those events, I couldn't let him be thirty in 2004 and fifty in 2009. That's quite hard to explain and probably doesn't make sense to you but little details are important in stories. The first chapter of the Invisible Agents is up in Warehouse 17.

The War for Humankind ch 15
Greetings, the 15th chapter of the War for Humankind is the last chapter, this is the third book in the Lutionn collection. These characters will be back for the oncoming books, continuously adding more plot and expanding on people of Lutionn. I have thoroughly enjoyed writing this book as well as the previous ones and would like to thank you for reading it. Hopefully the next novel will be as fun as this one. The 15th Chapter of the War for Humankind is up in Warehouse 17.

Dead man's walk
Greetings, Dead man's walk was written by Larry McMurtry and is the prequel to Lonesome dove, if that first book reflects the second novel then I will thoroughly enjoy it. The story is set around a large and varied cast of 200 Texan rangers, mainly focusing on Woodrow Call, Gus McCrea, Matilda Jane, Bigfoot Wallace, Shadrach and Long Bill Coleman as well as many others who are continuously in the story but not written about as much as the others.
The plot is a very simple one but none the less, McMurtry manages to generate excitement and keeps the story fresh. The 200 Texans march through the harsh conditions of the land under the order of a retired pirate, Colonel Cobb to capture the Mexican town of Santa Fe in hopes of taking the gold and silver that has been told in many tall tales. In a previous expedition Bigfoot Wallace had a premonition that consisted of the Comanche leader Buffalo Hump having an alliance with the Apache chief Gomez to attack the white men who were taking over their land. As the rangers need to walk through this territory, they come under threat from the weather, starvation and Indians, making their numbers fall as the book continues. The book continues to move at a fast rate with interesting characters which makes it a book that you wouldn't want to miss. The fourteenth chapter of the War for Humankind is up in Warehouse 17.

Your father was seduced by the dark side of the Force. He ceased to be Anakin Skywalker and became Darth Vader. When that happened, the good man who was your father was destroyed. So what I told you was true, from a certain point of view.
