"Betrayed by Tamsen Cauley, the man who let them out of prison, the War Pigs split up and thought to live out their days separately, hiding from friends and foes alike. Two years later they get an offer: if they kill Jim Raynor, Cauley will wipe the War Pigs' slates clean. They know they can't trust him, but sticking together offers a slim chance of survival now that they've been found. And the Dominion may hate Raynor, but that doesn't make him a hero-- does it?"--Jacket

Presents a series of short stories from the world of StarCraft in graphic novel format involving an intergalactic war, alien races, and strange new worlds.

The explosive novel based on the eagerly anticipated StarCraft II video game expansion, Heart of the Swarm! The sinister zerg leader no longer commands her legions of bloodthirsty aliens against the humans of the Koprulu sector, all thanks to the combined courage and tenacity of Jim Raynor, General Horace Warfield, and a mismatched team of Dominion soldiers and outlaw rebels. Although the queen is no more, Sarah Kerrigan is very much alive. The woman who once controlled countless alien minds in a rampage across the stars has been spirited away by the man who dethroned her. Now Arcturus Mengsk’s Dominion armada is on her heels, roaring for blood. Jim Raynor will need to test his strength, his wit, and his loyalties against impossible odds to protect the woman he loves. StarCraft II: Flashpoint bridges the events that take place in StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty and the upcoming StarCraft II: Heart of the Swarm. Featuring never-before-seen glimpses into Jim Raynor and Sarah Kerrigan’s past, this novel opens a window into a world of passion, action, and adventure.

WAR IS ALWAYS WAITING IN PEACE'S SHADOW A fragile ceasefire exists between the terrans, protoss, and zerg, but that hasn't stopped them from finding new ways to spill each other's blood. On a fringe world called Adena, a corrupt Dominion commander risks conflict between the three races for his own insatiable greed. The people who pay the price for his avarice are frontline grunts Elms, Contreras, and Yong. But for them, Adena is only the beginning of a long journey: one filled with deadly black-market deals, zerg infestation, and Elm's burgeoning psionic abilities. If they can all make it through in one piece, they might have a chance to finally become more than pawns in someone else's game.

For more than two decades, players have led the zerg, protoss, and terrans into battle for galactic dominance in StarCraft, StarCraft II, and multiple campaign expansions.

Former marshal-turned-rebel Jim Raynor has broken away from the power-crazed Emperor Arcturus Mengsk. Enraged over Mengsk's betrayal of the powerful telepath, Sarah Kerrigan, to the ravenous Zerg, Raynor has lost all faith in his fellow humanity. Yet, in the aftermath of Mengsk's treachery, Raynor is plagued by strange visions of Char -- a deadly, volcanic world haunted by horrifying alien creatures. As the nightmares grow in intensity, Raynor begins to suspect that they may not be figments of his imagination -- but a desperate form of telepathic contact. Convinced that the woman he loves is still alive, Raynor launches a hasty mission to rescue Kerrigan from Char. But deep beneath the planet's smoldering surface, Raynor finds a strange chrysalis...and is forced to watch in horror as a terrible, all-too-familiar entity rises from it.
