About this series
Following the bloodbath that ended his life on Earth and cost him the people he loved, Shadow’s mission is to destroy Daniel Penhallow’s criminal empire. After months of struggling to get inside it, an unexpected ally suggests a simple plan: tell the world the truth about who he is, and admit he’s killed to keep it secret.
When the truth shakes the world to its core, powerful Seekers on Earth and Carnathia all want a piece of the action. Things are already heating up in the Outland civil war, and Shadow’s revelations could make or break the peace negotiations. Especially as his new ally is Dakota Silverwood - the youngest Seeker in history, whose ambitions to outsmart his elders all require daring stealth missions that most would consider impossible.
With Shadow destined for prison after his confessions, Dakota takes the reins of the mission to restore the Lockyer family to their former power and crush the corrupt members of the Seeker’s Council. Lies, murder, extortion, nothing is off limits to the enemies Dakota and Shadow are about to make.
Not to mention that the most powerful Seeker on Earth, Kester Offren, would like nothing better than to watch everyone destroy each other, then clean up the mess with a new society, where the likes of Shadow, Dakota and their allies would not be welcome...

- Shadow's Talent: The Talent Show, #1
1
Shadow Hatcher is determined to change his life. Despite his unusually high aptitude for his dream career as an astronaut, Shadow’s lowly status in 23rd century England makes it nearly impossible to attain. This changes when Shadow witnesses a murder near his family’s farm. His daring witness testimony earns him the attention and respect of society’s most powerful people, the Talented, whose links to the ruling class can make Shadow’s dream come true. When his testimony results in the collapse of an illegal Dream Morphine racket, Shadow is thrown into a strange new world with dangers that he can barely begin to fathom. As he becomes more deeply involved in the world of the Talented, he must live with dark secrets and face constant dangers to prevent his family from paying the ultimate price for his success. A price someone now seems intent on making them pay...

Three years on from the birthday party that left him crippled for life, Shadow is well on the way to wrecking what’s left of himself. Just as he’s finally getting his life back on track, an unexpected visitor turns up at Shadow’s home, with a new idea about how to get his body restored. Everything comes at a price though, and the elusive Blake Stanford’s price is a little more than Shadow bargained for. His deal with the devil leaves him on the wrong side of the world’s most powerful organization: the Seeker’s Council. With the Seeker’s Council on his back, a nosy journalist who won’t stay out of his personal life, and a crime boss who will stop at nothing to gain his allegiance for her own shady purposes, Shadow is running low on allies. Friend and doctor Kit Calloway is still on his side, but keeping Shadow alive might just cost him more than his career this time. Especially if the world’s most powerful Seekers discover Shadow’s true identity. Or the three tubes of Liquid Talent he once buried deep in a forest, and promised never to dig up unless lives depended on the secrets inside them...
