To Jake Bayard’s amazement, he meets a Homo habilis: a five-foot, hundred-pound hairy hominid that was supposed to have gone extinct 1.65 million years ago. Philip is no moronic precursor to man, but a member of the elite extraterrestrial Institute, needing help to leave Earth. The problem is that Philip is a liar, a sneak, and a diabolical genius using the Traveler for his own ends. Out in the stars, Bayard discovers a conspiracy backed by ancient military tech and run by the little hominids bent on conquering everything, including Earth.

Johannes Cabal and his rather inexact powers of necromancy are back once more. This time, his talents are purchased by the Fear Institute as they hunt for the phobic animus - the embodiment of fear. The three institute members, led by Cabal and his silver key, enter the Dreamlands and find themselves pursued by walking trees plagued with giant ticks, stone men that patrol the ruins of their castles, cats that feed on human flesh, and phobias that torment and devastate.

Pirate antihero Rooker Flynn has 13 death sentences. But instead of being executed, he’s forced into the deadliest fantasy magic school ever built. Trapped on the island with murderous outlaws, a corrupt warden, and giant poisonous spiders, Rooker must stage a daring prison break or die trying. This isn't school, it's survival. Joined by his former partner Jack Swift, Rooker Flynn must outwit lethal trials, outlaw gangs, and the inhuman dangers lurking beyond locked doors.

Most of the story you hold in your hands takes place in the thirteen hours surrounding the execution of Rooker Flynn. Gerba Whipmarples has won. The prison revolt has failed, the escape plan has been crushed, and the perpetrators have been captured. The headmistress has stolen Nepenthe from Jack, and Rooker has sacrificed his one true love, the Venture Brigand, to save his friend’s life. At long last, there is nothing left for Gerba to do but make sure the greedy pirate pays for his crimes at the end of a noose. Welcome to Rooker Flynn’s final day at the Locke Institute.
