Captain Jason Burke is a man apart, and not just because he's the only of his kind for thousands of light-years in any direction. The changes to his body and to his genetic code have made him faster, stronger, more able to survive in his dangerous occupation...but they've also ensured that he'll never truly fit in with others of his species. He always assumed he would live and die with his crew and never lay eyes on another human again. He was wrong.

Captain Jackson Wolfe never thought he'd see the end of the Phage War in his lifetime. The enemy was too powerful, too numerous, and utterly determined to exterminate humanity. But the appearance of a new ally in the fight has changed all of that. For the first time since the original incursion, Wolfe thinks that maybe there's a chance to stop their implacable enemy before they have the chance to wipe out any more human planets.

Captain Jason Burke has begun to suspect that the random attacks on his ship and crew over the last couple of years may not be so random after all. Evidence is mounting that there is something on the Phoenix...something that powerful factions will stop at nothing to get their hands on. While Omega Force races to find out what is hidden on their ship that is causing so much trouble they also must figure out why such powerful enemies bent on obtaining it.

Marine First Lieutenant Jacob Brown is bored. For months he's been sitting around on an alien planet, waiting for command to recall his scout team so they could rest and be re-outfitted. When command finally does reach out, however, it isn't to order Obsidian home for some much needed r&r. Instead, they are being reactivated and sent out into the contested space of the recently conquered Eshquarian Empire to track down a single Terran cruiser called the Eagle's Talon.

The United Terran Federation and the Eastern Star Alliance have been fighting in minor skirmishes along the border region for the last few years, but now it threatens to break out into a full-on war with the victor assuming control of all human space.

Marine Lieutenant Jacob Brown was on borrowed time, and he knew it. He was a rogue element, disobeying orders and pursuing mission goals of his own. His Scout Team had been burned, disavowed by his chain of command and the owner of the stolen ship he was flying was after them to get it back. To make matters even more complicated, the man Jacob had stolen the ship from is an infamous outlaw and mercenary named Jason Burke...his father.

For nearly a century the famed assassin has struck terror within the hearts of those she has been hired to terminate. In that time the Viper, a human cyborg named Carolyn Whitney, has been a lone wolf. She prefers being on her own, neither requiring nor desiring the company of others. She has very few people she can consider a friend, and now one of those is coming for her.

A new killer is cutting a bloody swath through the frontier worlds. Rumors of its exploits are spreading and, like a ghost, nobody even knows what it looks like. Captain Jason Burke and his crew watch this growing menace with a mix of unease...and guilt. They know who this killer is. He used to be one of them.

Scout Team Obsidian has been stood down after an especially brutal mission to reacquire a stolen mech called the Atlas. During that mission, team leader Jacob Brown lost his left hand and eye. He is still adjusting to his new prosthetics and was looking forward to a well-earned vacation.

Marine Corps Captain Jacob Brown and his battlesynth partner, Tin Man, were on their own… The pair have been in the wind aboard their ship, Boneshaker, since they uncovered a great conspiracy. The Cridal Premier, Seeladas Dalton, had been replaced by a cybernetic imposter and now Jacob has discovered that the deception goes much deeper. Leaders on Earth and even within the Eshquarian Empire are acting… odd. Even the commander of Scout Fleet, Admiral Marcus Webb, is not quite himself lately. Jacob and Tin Man now have no safe harbor, no support, and no idea what to do.

Außerirdische existieren...und es stellt sich heraus, dass die meisten von ihnen nicht freundlich sind. Als sie das erste Mal die Erde angriffen, war Jacob Brown noch nicht einmal geboren. Beim zweiten Mal war er vierzehn. Als die Erde endlich ihre erste vereinte Raumflotte aufstellte, meldete sich Jacob sofort freiwillig. An Bord eines mächtiges Raumschiffs könnte er seinen Planeten–und seine Familie–verteidigen, wenn die Aliens zurückkehrten.

Each member of Omega Force carries his own baggage. Most of them are running from their pasts or simply trying to forget them. One member of the small mercenary crew is not who he claims to be, however. When his former life collides with his current one, the team is drawn into a conflict that could have profound consequences for the future of an entire species. Captain Jason Burke struggles to find answers as the tight cohesion of his crew seems to dissolve.

Jason Burke is a broken man. The loss of his friend and crewmate on an ill-fated mission to a Pillar World has left him in a downward spiral of rage and self-destruction. But what if Lucky hadn’t actually died on that planet? While Omega Force tries to pull itself together for the sake of their friend, they also learn that a ruthless new faction has seized control of the ConFed Council and now threatens the stability of the entire quadrant. To make matters worse, the rise of this new regime might be their fault.

There is a fine line between right and wrong, good and evil. For years Jason Burke has straddled that line as best he can, always convinced that despite the violence carried out by him and his team they were firmly on the right side of that line. But as he reflects on his time with Omega Force, he begins to have his doubts. When strange happenings from the mysterious Avarian Empire cross the expanse and Jason and Omega Force are pulled into the conflict, they must pick sides between two superpowers

The quadrant is on the brink of all-out civil war, but almost nobody knows it. Now that he knows a malevolent AI that calls itself the Machine has seized much of the ConFed's military apparatus and even controls the Grand Adjudicators themselves, Jason Burke must decide if he risks picking a fight with such an overmatched enemy, or if he runs to hide and fight another day. Omega Force needs allies, and needs them quickly.

The members of the Polaris Project knew what they were giving up when they volunteered to fly to the star named Angel-21, but the allure of being the first explorers to leave the Solar System far outweighed the risks. As it turned out, the most dangerous thing they faced wasn't the mission, it was the homecoming. Eight hundred years have passed, and Earth is nothing like they thought it would be.

Der Phagenkrieg war ein verheerender Konflikt für die Terranische Konföderation. Trotz der Zerstörung ihres schrecklichen, unerbittlichen Feindes ist die Menschheit immer noch schwer angeschlagen. Politische Allianzen zerfallen, und ihre mächtige Flotte liegt in Trümmern. Selbst nach einem so vollständigen Sieg gibt es nichts zu feiern. Bald erfahren die Menschen, dass es andere stellare Nachbarn gibt – und diese haben den Konflikt mit großem Interesse beobachtet.

Ein Planet der Menschheit wurde angegriffen. Die rätselhaften Darshik haben Truppen auf einer Grenzwelt gelandet und damit begonnen, Großstädte zu unterwerfen, während ihre Blockade alle Versuche der jungen Vereinigten Terranischen Föderation verhindert, eine Gegenoffensive durchzuführen.

Kapitän Jackson Wolfe hatte nie erwartet, das Ende des Phagenkriegs zu erleben. Die Feinde waren zu mächtig, zu zahlreich—und sie waren total entschlossen, die Menschen auszurotten.

Von Joshua Dalzelle kommt die Fortsetzung seines Beststsellers „Kriegsschiff.“ Kapitän Jackson Wolfe hat den ersten Vorstoß einer brutalen außerirdischen Gattung in den von Menschen beherrschten Weltraum überlebt ... aber nur knapp. Er hatte angenommen, dass das riesige Raumschiff, das drei terranische Sonnensysteme verwüstete, nur die Vorhut einer massiven Invasion sei. Aber in den letzten Jahren ist die Grenze seltsamerweise ruhig geblieben.
