Space Science Exploration

Calvin Brooks returns to Ethos, determined to learn the truth. As an admiral of their fleet, he struggles to conform to Black’s commands, but vows to preserve humanity if it kills him. Luke Dalton is in enemy territory, seeking his captured family. His reunion is short lived as everyone is thrust into battle. Jane, once content to watch history from the pages of a book, must take action to save Ethos… and in turn, Earth.

The unaware crew would find this trip to be anything but routine. Between the contraband, smugglers, pirates, and terrorists, there was no guarantee any of them would survive. The crew had one advantage—the newly minted space pilot, Ensign Phelan Oscar Piran.

After 100 years crossing the expanse, the generation starship Pioneer is nearly halfway to her destination. The horrors of her first few days in space have been erased by time and forgotten by the residents of the city nestled inside. But all good things must come to an end. After a double homicide leads to a suspect who shouldn't exist, it isn't long before Pioneer's dark history catches up with the people of Metro, and Niko, in particular. With no time to waste, the race is on to unravel the secrets of the past and bring the one person who can help into the present.

The colonies of the Faustian Chain have gone dark. No star freighters have come from the star cluster for many years. Captain Bill Gorman, a smuggler on the Fringe, is one of the few who know the truth. He’s personally battled the alien invaders who’ve overrun the human colonies of the Chain. He and his crew are faced with a choice: Will they fight the invaders, or will they run?

Light-years from home, it’s Ira’s second chance. Just another anonymous student at a space station university. Not the orphan whose Earther heritage was erased. Not some social experiment put on display by his adoptive father. Not the criminal recruited by the human rebels. But when Ira’s loyalties clash once again, two wars break out: one on the ground and one within himself. Which will Ira stand with? Which will take him down?

The conclave’s forces had reached a tipping point. Due to the vast expanse occupied by the empire’s thirty-five territories, Admiral Cordelia and Commander Tocknicka previously had to bide their time. They employed discreet tactical actions to harass the Krackus overseers and their mercenaries, the Radags. Now, Tridents in the hundreds and multiple Quadrants, with their experienced crews, were in place to deliver strategic actions against the Imperium Empire.

Two hundred thousand feet up, things go horribly wrong. An experimental low-orbit spaceplane breaks up on reentry, falling to earth over a trail hundreds of miles long. And in its wake is the beginning of the most important mission in the history of spaceflight.

Ein halbes Jahrzehnt nach dem Dominion-Krieg und mehr als ein Jahr nach Aufstieg und Fall des Praetors Shinzon, kehrt die größte Geißel der Galaxis zurück...

As a new communications officer, Darius Lever was in over his head as soon he arrived at the navigation deck on one of the few ships holding the last survivors of Earth. In a fleet where each ship is home to millions of people, every decision is life or death...until a single ship makes a choice that may doom the remainder of the human race. That ship is controlled by a 22-year-old girl. Darius must choose to save humanity, her life, or his own.

Lord Commander Grayson St. Clair has guided the Tellus Ad Astra to a part of the universe no human - and possibly no race known to man - has ever seen. Far from the worlds they know, the colony ship is on its own facing...something that seems to have no weakness. Something whose sole purpose seems to be devouring civilizations. With both time and space as enemies, St. Clair must figure out a way to explore this new corner of space, maintain military order on a mission that was supposed to be civilian, and - somehow - bring the Tellus Ad Astra back to the Milky Way.

A wry and compelling take on the who, how, and why of near-future colonies in space. From bone-whittling microgravity to eye-popping profits, the risks and rewards of space settlement have never been so close at hand.

Still searching for the Emperor’s Seat, Zelia, Talen and Mekki arrive on the jungle planet of Weald. Accompanied by the ingenious alien ape Fleapit and the dashing Rogue Trader Amity, Zelia and her friends become embroiled in a war between two brutish tribes of green-skinned orks! Only by using their wits can they hope to survive this savage encounter....

At the opening of our story, the Gauntlet is secure once again in government hands but able to flex incredible power when introduced into any Theatre of War or Battle Space. Globally, nations search in vain to develop similar weapons systems and the threat of North America having unlimited power in the form of Gauntlet proves too much for some. Dr. Paul Stewart is once again thrust reluctantly into the limelight as he and fellow scientists try to prevent chaos from reigning supreme as potential foes conceive, contrive, and put into action an outlandish plot to defy the allies.

Engineer Naomi Reyes did not come to the Moon to preach. She came to keep people alive. But as storms scrape the solar plain, a blackout tests courage, and an eclipse thins the light, Naomi and her small crew learn to survive by writing a humble Rule of Life on the habitat wall and living it with their hands. Under Commander Park’s steady quiet, botanist Tamsin coaxes green from dust, electrician Olu listens to wires like hymns, and Naomi chooses stewardship over spectacle when the world asks for a show. From a lab on Earth, Leah, Arthur, and Jonah fight for truth with signatures that cost.

When Gunnar McConnell inherits a treasure map after his uncle's death, he goes on the hunt of his life and can't believe what he finds. There isn't just gold on those mountains, but the secret of a lifetime—a starship that can take him to worlds unknown, and a universe full of life.

Titan is practically a planet in its own right, with a diameter similar to that of Mercury, methane rainstorms, organic soot, and ethane seas. The views from Titan’s Mayda outpost are spectacular, but all is not well at the moon’s remote science base. On the shore of a methane sea beneath glowering skies, atmospherics researcher Abigail Marco finds herself in the middle of murder, piracy, and colleagues who seem to be seeing sea monsters and dead people from the past.

There are worse ways to make a living than traveling the worlds killing men. Especially if you're a woman with a grudge and a gift. Like me. I am part of the Zyrnx, but apart from them, as well. They believe in rescuing slaves. I believe in killing slave masters. I am not a savior of helpless victims - I am a killer of monsters. But as Taal says, sometimes I see a monster where a man stands. And the monster I have come to kill, he believes we are fated mates. Lifemates. Born for each other. I do not believe in such things. I believe in sex, fighting, and death - not love.

I'm abducted from Earth and sold to a panel of high judges - important, wealthy men partly responsible for punishing and sentencing aliens who break the law and protecting those who obey. Unfortunately, there are no laws that protect abducted humans. When I kill one of the depraved high judges, I have two choices - stay and face whatever hell of a life his friends subject me to or run and sneak aboard the transport ship bound for the worst prison planet in all the worlds. Stygian. I run.
