"The Thirty Years War, fought between 1618 and 1648, was a ruthless struggle for political and religious control of central Europe. Engulfing most of present-day Germany, the war claimed at least ten million lives. The lengthy conflict was particularly hard on the general population, as thousands of undisciplined mercenaries serving Sweden, Spain, France, the Netherlands, and various German principalities, robbed, murdered, and pillaged communities; disease spread out of control and starvation became commonplace. In The Warwolf, Hermann Lons' acclaimed historical novel, the tragedy and horrors of war in general, and these times in particular are revealed. The Warwolf, based on the author's careful research, traces the life of Harm Wulf, a land-owning peasant farmer of the northern German heath who realizes after witnessing the murder of neighbors and family at the hands of marauding troops that he has a choice between compromising his morals or succumbing to inevitable torture and death. Despite his desire for peace, Wulf decides to band with his fellow farmers and live like "wolves," fiercely protecting their isolated communities from all intruders. Lons' brilliant portrayal of the two sides of any person who has faced a moral crisis--in Harm Wulf's case, whether to kill or be killed--continues to resonate. Originally published in 1910 and still in print in Germany, The Warwolf is now available for the first time in modern English."--Publisher's website.

As the head of the House of Saxony closes in on Commander Karl Drechsler to exact justice for violating the Laws of the Kingdom, new and more powerful creatures are rising from the magic-stained earth. The evolution of firepower by the United States Airship Command has made it a formidable force in Colorado Springs. But will it be enough to defend against the power of the Four Saints? Dillan Sorensen doesn't think so, and his attempts to convince Commander Drechsler to make use of the darkest of magic is a source of rising tension between them. Mistrust of the former Airshipmen within the ranks of the USAC is making things worse. Mike Loren, Aidan Reade, Dillan Sorensen--all former Airshipmen, just might become a liability for the commander as he faces the greatest threat to the Pines District. The demonbreed, the corrupted talents of the rogues, and the insane ambitions of a new breed of creature spawned by Alice Taft's mad descent and hunger for revenge give Karl little quarter from the devastation likely to destroy his world and everything he's accomplished for the scrap. The most difficult choice of his life will determine his very identity. The spirit of the eagle has abandoned him, and the use of a mysterious and dark secret might very well change Karl forever.

As she tugged at the door, he sprang across grasping his flask, but Sweyn dashed between, and caught him back irresistibly, so that a most frantic effort only availed to wrench one arm free. With that, on the impulse of sheer despair, he cast at her with all his force. The door swung behind her, and the flask flew into fragments against it. Then, as Sweyn's grasp slackened, and he met the questioning astonishment of surrounding faces, with a hoarse inarticulate cry: God help us all he said. She is a Werewolf.

During his arduous travel, through wilderness areas, Michael encounters strange, wolf-man creatures, who seem bent on killing him. After delivering the message to the French Army, the French naturally respond: Leave the Ohio Valley. Michael suspects that the French Captain may be behind these wolf-man creatures, as he is dogged all the way back to Virginia by the wolf-man creatures. Upon his return to Virginia, Michael discovers that the wolf-man creatures are called werewolves and that the only way they can be killed is by either removing their head or striking silver through their heart. At the same time that the British and Michael are preparing an expedition back to the Ohio Valley to "remove" the French, the French Captain is preparing for the inevitable battle to come by "recruiting" more werewolves. As the British march towards the French fort, they come under attack not only by French soldiers, but also by WEREWOLVES. After the British General is killed, Michael assumes command, using his knowledge of werewolves to help prevent a complete massacre. After seven, long years, the French-Indian War ends, with Michael believing that he has not only seen the last of werewolves, but also the casualties of war. When the Revolutionary War begins, Michael is again called upon to serve as a commander. Now, fighting the British, Michael discovers that an old enemy has reappeared, threatening the emergence of the United States as a country.
