About this audiobook

‘An exciting new writer – sharp, compelling and original’ – Mark Lawrence

Years have passed since the Vagrant journeyed to the Shining City, Vesper in arm and Gamma’s sword in hand.

Since then the world has changed. Vesper, following the footsteps of her father, journeyed to the breach and closed the tear between worlds, protecting the last of humanity, but also trapping the infernal horde and all those that fell to its corruptions: willing or otherwise.

In this new age it is Vesper who leads the charge towards unity and peace, with seemingly nothing standing between the world and a bright new future.

That is until eyes open.

And The Seven awaken.

Peter Newman

Peter Newman is the Vice President for Research and Associate Director of the BloodCenter’s 125 person Blood Research Institute. Dr. Newman’s major research accomplishments include elucidation of the molecular basis of the major human platelet alloantigen systems, including the PlA1/PlA2 polymorphism, the discovery of PECAM-1, and numerous contributions to the understanding of the role of activating and inhibitory receptors that control platelet activation. Dr. Newman has published more than 175 original research articles, book chapters and reviews on the subject of platelet and endothelial cell biology, cell adhesion, and signal transduction. Current research activities include the structural biology of PECAM-1, the role of PECAM-1 in endothelial cell junctional integrity, and novel applications of CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing technology to modify platelet- and megakaryocyte-specific alloantigens in induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells. Professionally, Dr. Newman served on the Executive Committee of the Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology (ATVB) Council of the American Heart Association (AHA) from 1999-2004, chaired its Annual Meeting in 2004 and served on its Council from 2010-2012. He chaired the Hemostasis Gordon Conference in 2008, served from 2006-2014 as a member of the American Society of Hematology (ASH) Government Affairs Committee that meets annually with members of Congress, and is a current member of the ASH Audit and Investment Committee. Dr. Newman has been on the editorial board of Blood, has reviewed dozens of grants for both the NIH and the AHA, and currently serves the AHA as Associate Editor of the platelet and thrombosis section of the journal ATVB. He was an Established Investigator of the AHA from 1992-1997, and received a Special Recognition Award from their ATVB Council in 2001. Dr. Newman received an Investigator Recognition Medal from the International Society of Thrombosis (ISTH) in 1997, the Emil von Behring Award from the German Society for Transfusion Medicine in 2007, the E.T.S. Walton Award from Science Foundation of Ireland for his studies on the Molecular Mechanisms of Platelet Activation and Adhesion in 2008, and a Distinguished Career Award from the ISTH in 2013. He recently received a seven-year Outstanding Investigator award from the National Heart Lung and Blood Institute of the National Institutes of Health that supports the majority of his current research program.

    Finally done with this series. Unfortunately, I finished it more out of obligation than anything else. While the premise was interesting, I just didn't connect or feel anything for any of the characters with the exception of Harm maybe. Even the Seven themselves were a disappointment.

    Maybe one day I'll read it instead of listening to the audio book, and maybe I'll get more out of it that way, but for now, I'm glad to be moving on.
