2) "The Trials" and "The sacrifice" (Link: The Trials and the Sacrifice (The Mercenary, Vol 2))
3) This book, "The Fortress"
4) "The Black Globe" (Link:The Black Globe (Mercenary Series))

6) "Year 1000: The end of the world" (Link:The Mercenary: Year 1000 : The End of the World)
7) "Lost Civilisation" (Link:The Lost Civilization (The Mercenary))
8) "Giants" (Link:The Mercenary: Giants)
