Shocked by the brutal murder of a reckless beauty, Nick and Sarah are ripped from the calm of early retirement on the casual coast of Northern California’s Monterey Bay.

Knowledge brings danger when they can’t tell the Sheriff, and their stubborn search for truth attracts a killer’s interest and pits them against an old enemy. Retirement is more stimulating than they thought! Will they ever relax again?

Nick and Sarah expected sunshine and clean air when they retired to the casual coast of Northern California's Monterey Bay—not homicide and danger—but when her driftwood crafts are stolen and the thief brutally murdered, the good vibes turn weird fast, landing them directly in the path of a deadly fight for high-tech riches. They got lucky with the Fogstalker, but now they're marked by a sadistic opportunist with a frozen soul and, unaware of mounting threats, make perfect targets as the hunters close in. But not even the freaky cast of wannabes, killers, gamblers, and vigilantes that converge on the narrow streets of Aptos can outmaneuver this ex-schoolteacher and this ex-nurse: "retired" doesn't mean "helpless"! So when the corporate heat hits the beach to kick butt, not kick back, better slip on the shades, stay cool, and stand clear for action. You can step on their peace and quiet, but don't ever mess with their family! Retirement will just have to wait.

Think everyone has it easy in Silicon Valley? Try being a fledgling P.I. in politically-correct Palo Alto! When the very incorrect murder of a rising-star lawyer horrifies the public, fascinates the media, and throws the police into an investigative frenzy, the obvious suspect is part-time pool-cleaner Trucker James Deal. Suspected by the public, hounded by the press, and targeted by a killer, Deal hangs tough when the hunt turns nasty and doggedly tracks an opportunistic murderer through the upscale streets and backyards of well-heeled suburbia. Finding whodunit is only self defense, and with friends and enemies slugging it out, the San Francisco Peninsula's headed for a shake-up that ain't no earthquake! See, Deal's a trouble magnet--a righteous dude who's impulsive under pressure, hot for truth, and cool when it counts. Drop by, hang on, and check out New Deal Investigations, where results count more than P.C. procedures, and pool cleaning's dangerous work.

Steal a high-end motor home from a popular beachfront park? Impossible, you say? Well, for hot-shot car thief Cruiser Dekko it's only a tempting challenge with bragging rights and a huge bet to win: a high-stakes game, for sure, and one Nick and Sarah Worther didn't retire to the casual shores of Monterey Bay to play. But when Cruiser's brazen plan inadvertently abducts Sarah and her friend Patricia in the stolen rig, Nick, with family and friends behind him, must track down the thieves and save the women. And you better believe private property and trespass laws mean nothing to a fixated hunter! As tension mounts and the situation darkens Nick will confront guard dogs, shotguns, and the limits of his own endurance, will risk injury and death as he drives himself to the desperate end of his physical and emotional strength in an obsessive search for Sarah. And as hope dims, risk increases, danger rises, and disaster awaits with death in the mix. What will Nick endure to save his soul mate? What will Sarah dare to free herself and to defend her own life and Nick's? And why isn't retirement at all like they imagined?

An active vacation from a pleasant retirement? That's how Nick and Sarah pictured their friend Rita's yoga retreat on Maui—until a fellow-student suffers a cruel death while helpless in an extreme stretch, and Rita, accused of criminal negligence, suddenly becomes deeply withdrawn and…well, downright spooky! Back home on the casual coast of Northern California's Monterey Bay, the pace heats up quickly as Rita is attacked, Sarah feels compelled to help, and bizarre stories of a brutal act and deadly vengeance surface unexpectedly to complicate the equation. Trouble enough for an ex-teacher and a nurse, but throw in a wannabe hitman with a sexy girlfriend who's stoked on surfers and dreams of shooting documentary videos, a grief-crazed widower, a mysterious attorney, a greedy yogi, an opportunistic surfer, and a German Shepard, and you've got a nasty stew that's about to boil over into murderous action. Danger prowls Santa Cruz County and the quiet streets of Aptos, but before they can save Rita, they'll first have to answer the big one: How crazy is she?! And if yoga's so good for the body and surfing's so much fun, why are people dying? Why are Nick and Sarah so stressed-out? And why does this stuff keep happening to them?! Who says life's fair or retirement's easy?—No wimps allowed!

All manner of folk have come for riches or fame, but few are prepared for Assail. This is a thrilling close to the Malazan Empire series and just as engaging as a standalone, this novel will not disappoint. Ideal for fans of Steven Erikson, David Gemmell and Brandon Sanderson. 'Esslemont nails the feel and flavor of Erikson's books and brings the historical characters to life with a dexterity that will win over even the most skeptical fans.' - ***** PUBLISHERS WEEKLY 'The Malazan franchise is fighting fit in the hand of its co-creator' - ***** SFX 'The story just gets more engrossing with every page. Love it.' - ***** Reader Review 'His best novel so far' - ***** Reader Review ******************************************************** A NEW HORIZON DAWNS. WRAP UP WARM. To the North lies Assail. It is a land that has been impenetrable for centuries. Now, as the ice begins to melt, it starts to yield its long-hidden secrets and the steady march through this hostile environment begins. Awaiting those brave enough to make the journey is the murmured promise of riches and reverence. Some go seeking answers, some wealth, and some simply adventure. In the South waits Silverfox. The newly incarnate Summoner of the undying army of the T'lan Imass, she will do anything in her power to halt the renewal of an ages-old crusade - a crusade that could lay waste to the entire continent... and beyond. Shedding light on the mysteries that span the Malazan Empire, and offering glimpses into the epic history that shaped it, Assail brings this empire's epic story to a thrilling close. ******************************************************** Further praise for Esslemont's Malazan series: 'Everything you expect of a Malazan story, being both epic and relevant... nail-biting and anything but obvious.' - SFF WORLD 'Terrific... impossible to put down and highly recommended for all fans of The Malazan Book of the Fallen.' - FANTASY HOTLIST 'Hugely promising... a contained, concise romp that's also dense with fan-pleasing information... an entertaining romp.' - DEATHRAY 'Maybe I'm prejudiced since I love the Malazan books so much, but I had a blast reading Night of Knives... I highly recommend it to anyone.' - FANTASY BOOKCRITIC 'Esslemont handles action and brooding atmosphere equally well.' - STARBURST 'Extremely readable... All credit to Esslemont and Erikson. They have created a wonderfully energetic world that is just crying out for adventures.' - ETERNAL NIGHT

Recognizable, recurring spatial settings in video games serve not only as points of reference and signposts for orientation, but also as implicit sources of content. These spatial archetypes denote more than real-world objects or settings: they suggest and bring forward emotional states, historical context, atmospheric “attunement,” in the words of Massumi, and aesthetic programs that go beyond plain semiotic reference. In each chapter, Mathias Fuchs brings to the fore an archetype commonly found in old and new digital games: The Ruin, The Cave, The Cloud, The Portal, The Road, The Forest, and The Island are each analysed at length, through the perspectives of aesthetics, games technology, psychoanalysis, and intertextuality. Gridding these seven tropes together with these four analytical lenses provides the reader with a systematic framework to understand the various complex considerations at play in evocative game design.
