The Bloodline Feud by Charles Stross includes The Family members Trade as well as the Hidden Family members – the first two instalments of The Vendor Princes series combined in one volume.

Miriam Beckstein is a successful reporter for a hi-tech magazine. Therefore when she discovers a huge money-laundering rip-off, she thinks she’s hit the big style. However when she will take it to her editor, not merely is she fired, but she begins to receive loss of life threats. And that’s just the start.

To distract her furious girl, Miriam’s on the subject of The Bloodline Feud: The Family members Trade and The Hidden Family adoptive mother unearths mementos from her real mother, murdered when she was a child. But these disclose a secret that will ultimately throw whole governments into disarray. For what Miriam feels is a straightforward locket gets the capacity to fling her into another timeline. With this less-developed world, knights on horseback wield automated weapons, and world-skipping assassins lurk – all on the other hand of our fact. Here, her accurate family operates a criminal empire – and they want her back. But Miriam has other plans.

Following The Bloodline Feud are two additional omnibus volumes, The Traders’ Battle as well as the Revolution Trade.
