Die Zwillinge Johann und Johanna sind wahrlich von Pech verfolgt. Kaum ist es ihnen mit Hilfe von Yoyo und Doc Croc gelungen, der bösen Hexe zu entfliehen, die sie zu schweren Sklavenarbeiten gezwungen hatte, wird Johann durch seine Unbedachtheit in ein Reh verwandelt. Nun ist er eine leichte Beute für Raubtiere aller Art, und nicht zuletzt für den jungen König, der gerade auf der Jagd ist. Doch Johannas Anmut bezaubert den Herrscher und ruft sein Mitgefühl hervor.

Yoyo ist baff: Dieser Hans ist ja noch mutiger als er selbst! Rein gar nichts vermag dem Kerl Angst einzujagen. Und darüber ärgert er sich auch noch und will partout lernen, was es heißt, sich zu fürchten! Die Drei ziehen also los und begegnen Gespenstern, Drachen und anderen Kreaturen der Hölle, aber nichts von alledem bringt den tapferen Hans aus der Ruhe.

A vivid account of the Right’s subversive campaign to impose Christian nationalist rule. Time and again, when confronted with serious challenges to their power and privilege, white Christian nationalists seek solace—and satisfaction—in state-supported forms of vigilantism. This was true at...

The Primordials are crossing into our universe. Their mission is simple: Burn every planet to ashes. The only hope for all life is the culmination of the Kane bloodline. Prometheus finds his back against the wall. Can he hold off the horde long enough for his grandson to face a god? Or will defending his home require the ultimate sacrifice? Constantine and his warriors are out of options. They must find the alien god-king and kill him before time runs out for everyone. Two generations must dig deep and rise above a species more powerful than humanity ever imagined.

Everything has led to this……But only one warrior will win. The three forces converge on Earth: de Finita, The AllSeer, and Prometheus. Behind them lay the wreckage of millions of lives and planets burned to ashes. In front of each? The greatest empire known to mankind. Destiny.

The games are over. The war is here. Does humanity have a chance against the gods? Five men and women venture to another universe to find beings whose power gives them abilities they can’t imagine. Their leader? The greatest warrior produced since Prometheus: Achilles. Young, untested, but with unbridled potential, will his raw talent be enough? Can Achilles fight gods and turn back the tide of fate for the entire universe? Or will he be crushed like an ant beneath the feet of beings who can walk the stars? Humanity comes face-to-face with their creators.

Prometheus returned to his solar system, and de Finita’s forces prepare to defend what’s theirs. The AllSeer’s return threatens to conquer both militaries in one genius move. He’ll obliterate Mars and force Prometheus to make an impossible choice: Save his friend or save his insurrection. Will de Finita bend the knee or watch billions burn alive beneath the AllSeer’s magnificent power? Will Prometheus let his friend die? Or will he abandon everything that what he’s built and risk his own life for someone he once loved?

An alien race decides humanity’s fate: Eradication. They didn’t count on someone rising to challenge their decree. Constantine had forsaken his family name and birthright. At 28-years old, he’d escaped Earth to help terraform Mars. An empire’s heir went missing just as the universe’s greatest threat announces itself. War Games will decide who represents humanity in this extinction level struggle. Constantine is summoned.

Prometheus is missing… Yet the insurrection cannot stop. Can it survive without him? Finally, Alistair’s insurrection returns to our solar system, intent on destroying the Commonwealth. There’s only one problem: after his battle with Hector, Alistair disappeared. Now, Thoreaux faces an impossible decision with ramifications stretching out centuries. Should he invade Neptune without their incredible leader? If he does, will anyone live? If Alistair’s still alive, will he show up in time to save his insurrection, or will it be too late?

Battle lines have been drawn. Only one species will survive. The Primordials are crossing into our universe. Their mission is simple: Burn every planet to ashes. The only hope for all life is the culmination of the Kane bloodline. Prometheus finds his back against the wall. Can he hold off the horde long enough for his grandson to face a god?

Was für ein Lotterleben, denkt sich Yoyo, als er die Bewohner des Dornröschenschlosses sieht. Am helllichten Tag wird hier geschlafen und das, obwohl soviel zu tun wäre! Selbst der Koch verschläft, dass er dem frechen Küchenjungen eine Ohrfeige verabreichen wollte. Doch bald kommen unsere Helden, Yoyo und Doc Croc mithilfe der Fee Bianca hinter das uralte Geheimnis des dornenumrankten Schlosses. Ein schönes Mädchen, eine beleidigte böse Fee und eine vergiftete Spindel spielen dabei eine Rolle.

Ein seltsames Gefolge, das der verliebte Prinz auf dem Wege zum Schloss seiner Angebeteten einsammelt: Ein Dickwanst, der ganze Meere austrinken kann, ein Horcher, der Gras wachsen hört, ein Seher, der über Tausende von Meilen hinweg auch noch die kleinste Maus entdeckt, und das sind nur drei von sechs seltsamen Dienern! Doch Yoyo und Doc Croc ahnen bereits, dass der Prinz übermenschliche Hilfe braucht, um die unlösbaren Aufgaben der bösen Königin zu bewältigen.

Constantine had forsaken his family name and birthright. At 28-years old, he’d escaped Earth to help terraform Mars. An empire’s heir went missing just as the universe’s greatest threat announces itself. War Games will decide who represents humanity in this extinction level struggle. Constantine is summoned. With little training but abundant talent, can Constantine win these games? If he does, will he be a force in the coming war? Or is it already too late for humanity? 

Yoyo tippt sich an die Stirn: Wie kann ein Wal der Bruder eines Adlers sein? Und was ist das für ein Gerede von der Kristallkugel, die im Ei eines Geiers versteckt ist, der in einem wilden Bullen steckt, der wiederum... Hier war ein ganz besonderer Zauber im Spiel. Doc Croc hat nun Gelegenheit, seinen berühmten Scharfsinn unter Beweis zu stellen, denn schließlich muss nicht nur der Zauber gebrochen, sondern auch noch die Prinzessin vor der Ehe mit einem alten Scheusal von Zauberer bewahrt werden.

Eine Neuigkeit aus der Unterwelt: Der Teufel hat eine Großmutter! Sie ist fast so böse wie ihr berüchtigter Enkel, aber sie hat eine ganz große Schwäche: Das Rätsellösen. Gut, dass Yoyo und Doc Croc dies noch rechtzeitig herausgefunden haben, denn sonst hätten sie und ihr neuer Freund Kaspar ihr weiteres Leben in Ameisengröße fristen müssen. Nun haben sie vielleicht sogar die Chance, die drei goldenen Haare des Teufels mitgehen zu lassen und Kaspar zum König zu machen.
