Resumen del Editor
The Bright Empires series is a unique blend of epic treasure hunt, ancient history, alternate realities, cutting-edge physics, philosophy, and mystery. The result is a pause-resisting adventure like no other.
The Skin Map
Kit Livingstone’s great-grandfather reveals an unbelievable story: The ley lines throughout Britain are not merely the stuff of legend or weekend hobby of deluded cranks but pathways to other worlds.
One explorer knew more than most. Braving every danger, he toured both time and space on voyages of heroic discovery. Ever on his guard and fearful of becoming lost in the cosmos, he developed an intricate code - a road map of symbols - that he tattooed on his body. This Skin Map has since been lost in time. And the race is on to discover its secrets.
The Bone House
Kit is on a quest to understand the impossible mission he inherited from Cosimo: to restore a map that charts the hidden dimensions of the multiverse. Survival depends on staying one step ahead of the savage Burley Men.
Those who know how to use the ley lines have left their own world behind to travel across time and space - down avenues of Egyptian sphinxes, to an Etruscan tufa tomb, into a Bohemian coffee shop, and across a Stone Age landscape where universes collide - in this, the second quest to unlock the mystery of The Bone House.
The Spirit Well
Kit is mastering the ability to travel across realities using ley lines and has forged a link from the Bone House, a sacred lodge made of animal bones, to the fabled Spirit Well, a place of profound power.
Cassandra Clarke is overseeing an archaeological dig in Arizona when a chance encounter transports her to 1950s Damascus. There, she finds herself unwillingly drawn to the Seekers - the last living remnants of the Zetetic Society who need her help to track down the missing Cosimo Livingstone and his grandson Kit.
But there are darker forces at work in the universe whose agents always seem to be one step ahead of the rest - and they’re all desperate to gain the ultimate prize in this treasure hunt where the stakes increase at every turn.
The Shadow Lamp
Kit, Mina, Gianni, Cass, Haven, and Giles have gathered in Mina’s 16th-century coffeehouse and are united in their determination to find a path back to the Spirit Well. Yet, with their shadow lamps destroyed and key pieces of the map still missing, the journey will be far more difficult than they imagine. And when one of their own disappears with Sir Henry’s cryptic Green Book, they no longer know who to trust.
The quest for answers is no longer limited to recovering an unknown treasure. The fate of the universe depends on unraveling the riddle of the Skin Map.
The Fatal Tree
It started with small wrinkles in time: A busy bridge suddenly disappears, spilling cars into the sea. A beast from another realm roams modern streets. Napoleon’s army appears in 1930s Damascus ready for battle. But that’s only the beginning as entire realities collide and collapse.
Kit and Cass are back in the Stone Age trying to reach the Spirit Well. But an enormous yew tree has grown over the portal, effectively cutting off any chance of return. Unless someone can find a solution - and fast - all Creation will be destroyed in the universal apocalypse known as The End of Everything.

Historia
Hunted like an animal by Norman invaders, Bran ap Brychan, heir to the throne of Elfael, has abandoned his father’s kingdom and fled to the greenwood. There, in the primeval forest of the Welsh borders, danger surrounds him - for this woodland is a living, breathing entity with mysterious powers and secrets. Bran must find a way to make it his own if he is to survive and become King Raven. From deep in the forest, Bran, Will Scarlet, and Friar Tuck form a daring plan for deliverance, knowing that failure means death for them all - and the dreams of the oppressed people of Wales.

Lewis Gillies is an American graduate student in Oxford who should be getting on with his life. Yet for some reason, he finds himself speeding north with his roommate Simon on a lark — half-heartedly searching for a long-extinct creature allegedly spotted in a misty glen in Scotland. Expecting little more than a weekend diversion, Lewis accidently crosses through a mystical gateway where two worlds meet: into the time-between-times, as the ancient Celts called it.

It started as a simple heist. It went to hell from there. On a space station orbiting a pale blue sun, a package changes hands. Data too sensitive to transmit will be exposed for one brief moment. The client is paying a crazy sum - if the job is clean. That’s not going to happen. Instead, the galaxy’s unluckiest crew of outlaws will have to put all their resources into salvaging what they can from the job. Even if it’s only avoiding blame for the fallout.

Interesting story with Christian themes woven in
I enjoyed this story enough that when I wasn't listening to it, I was thinking about the characters and how they relate to life. I like how the spiritual aspect was woven through the story. I love science fiction and to show a story can have that and a spiritual aspect without being cheesey was great! The reader was a bit dry but I think that's the British style. 😜

Compelling story
Even after listening to five books I was still sad to see the story come to an end. This is an engaging and intriguing story with characters I became invested in, especially the unexpected redemption at the end.

Engaging start, interesting build up, disappointing conclusion
Lawhead delivers interesting characters and locations under a new premise. Unfortunately, the story never really matures for its audience and the science within the science fiction seems to be not fully grasped by its author.
Perhaps there was potential, but the reader is left wanting.

Right storyline needs better proof reader
There were inconsistencies in the story. so I would give the story itself for stars. I was. However, able to suspend this belief long enough to enjoy the story. they need a better proof reader.

such an interesting and unexpected concept
nothing what so ever, it was amazing and brilliant. perhaps a bit slower at the beginning of each book, yet still compelling. not what I expected when it was recommended after master of war, but I'm thankful I gave it a shot.

First 4 books are great
The first four books have everything a sci-fi reader is looking for but the last book is what I can only call poor. I feel cheated after putting all the time into listening to a very interesting plot line only for it to play out with a fuzzy unsatisfying ending. I was thinking 5 stars all the way through with great narration and interesting story but that ending leaves me extremely disappointed.

Captivatingly hooked creating a true loss of time
I would literally lose hours of my day listening to this storyline. This was my first listen to this author and although this series had a great ending, I felt depressed it was over. I could not have searched his other works any faster. Fantastic story with loveable characters. You almost feel that your a part of the journey. All 5 stars from this reader
