Owen Lake never had any interest in space. After watching his astronaut mother die, he preferred the simple life of a boat captain on Lake Superior. But the simple life was never meant to last. His charter business is failing, but an opportunity pops up in the form of Dr. Mariana Keller, who's interested in what lies beneath the waves: a mysterious, unnatural blue glow emanating from the depths. Owen agrees to take her on a clandestine dive to an ancient shipwreck site.

Now that August Walton is dead and new information has come to light, Cole Riker and his team of misfits are finally back on the cosmic highway to another unknown location. This time they might actually have a shot at completing the mission and getting back home in one piece. Victory isn’t all it seems, however.

Cole Riker is a Slip Runner. A contractor tasked with finding alien salvage in exchange for credits. For an ex-smuggler like Cole, there’s a catch: Don’t break the terms of parole. That means doing things by the book. Find salvage, turn it in, get paid. But everything changes when a retrieval mission lands him in a previously unknown sector. There, he finds the material he’s been sent to recover, along with something more. A brand-new form of ancient alien life.

Cole Riker is a free man. Or close enough. He no longer has the weight of his past hanging over him, threatening to put him away for the rest of his days. All it took was finding an unknown alien lifeform and agreeing to escort it back to its homeworld. Except his newfound luck doesn’t want to last. Gray doesn’t remember how to get home, and all the evidence says his people abandoned him after an unknown threat came calling. And that’s only the beginning.

Cole and his crew have finally made it back to the Sol System, but that doesn't mean their work is done. The key to stopping Noth lies somewhere in human space, and the former Renegade aims to find it. Unfortunately, dissension is brewing. Fueled by greed and the desire to expand their territories once again through open conflict, a group calling themselves the Separatists are plotting an insurrection. They threaten to destroy humanity’s hard-won peace by dividing the united factions and restoring disorder to the galaxy.

Despite a warning to return home, Cole isn't about to leave his allies before their little slug infestation has been dealt with. This time, he plans to take the fight to them. Of course, when humans make plans, the powers that be just sit back and laugh.

Gray has been taken captive and become the host of a Controller. But not for long, not if Cole has anything to say about it. Determined to recover his hijacked crew member, he sets out to do what he does best: raise hell and kick ass.

Cole and his crew are no strangers to bad breaks. That's just life. With a war waging in Anypsian territory, it doesn't matter that their task is complete. Gray is family, and you don't turn your back on family. His memories remain elusive, and enemy forces continue to work behind the scenes in their quest for power. To stop them, Cole teams up with the shadowy organization known as Chaos.

After escaping from the colony ship in a faraway system, Cole has uncovered sinister evidence of August Walton's oppression: a castoff civilization living in the past and forced to comply with the Eternal leader's unjust edicts. It doesn't take long for Cole to realize that the planet has its own secrets. Navigating lies and half-truths leads to a brewing rebellion led by the one person who might hold all the answers he seeks. But, as any good Renegade knows, nothing's ever easy.

Wo eine Mission endet, beginnt eine andere... Cole und seine Mannschaft sind keine Fremden, wenn sie Pech haben. So ist das Leben nun mal. Während im anypsianischen Territorium ein Krieg tobt, spielt es keine Rolle, dass ihre Aufgabe erfüllt ist. Gray gehört zur Familie, und einer Familie kehrt man nicht den Rücken zu. Seine Erinnerungen sind nach wie vor schwer zu finden, und die feindlichen Kräfte arbeiten hinter den Kulissen weiter an ihrer Macht. Um sie zu stoppen, tut sich Cole mit der schattenhaften Organisation Chaos zusammen.

Noth, humanity's greatest threat, has awoken and he's out for blood. So is Cole and his merry crew of misfits. They have the means to get it, too. Sort of. Their weapon might not be fully functional, but it just needs a power boost. How hard can it be? Pretty freaking hard, as it turns out. Especially when their enemies will do anything to stop them. When someone close to the crew is murdered and Cole is framed for the deed, things only get more complicated. Under the circumstances, that problem should be put on the backburner, but nothing is ever as it seems.

Cole Riker ist ein freier Mann.Oder zumindest nahe genug dran. Die Last seiner Vergangenheit, die drohte ihn für den Rest seiner Tage zu kontrollieren, lastet nicht mehr auf ihm. Dazu musste er nur eine unbekannte außerirdische Lebensform finden und sich bereit erklären, sie zu ihrer Heimatwelt zurückzubringen.

Ein Auftragnehmer, der außerirdisches Bergungsgut im Tausch gegen Kredite finden soll. Für einen Ex-Schmuggler wie Cole gibt es einen Haken: Er darf nicht gegen die Bewährungsauflagen verstoßen. Das bedeutet, sich an die Vorschriften zu halten. Bergungsgut finden, abliefern, bezahlt werden. Doch alles ändert sich, als er bei einem Bergungseinsatz in einem bisher unbekannten Sektor landet. Dort findet er das Material, das er bergen soll, und noch etwas anderes...

Gray wurde gefangen genommen und zum Wirt eines Kontrolleurs. Aber nicht für lange, nicht wenn Cole etwas dazu zu sagen hat. Er ist fest entschlossen, sein entführtes Besatzungsmitglied wiederzufinden, und macht sich auf den Weg, um das zu tun, was er am besten kann: die Hölle aufzuwühlen und Ärsche zu versohlen. Während sich sein Co-Kapitän noch von seinen Verletzungen erholt und die Star Treader in seiner Abwesenheit einen Kommandanten braucht, bricht Cole allein in das besetzte anypsianische Kriegsschiff ein.

Jetzt, da August Walton tot ist und neue Informationen ans Licht gekommen sind, sind Cole Riker und sein Team von Außenseitern endlich wieder auf dem kosmischen Highway zu einem weiteren unbekannten Ort. Diesmal haben sie vielleicht sogar eine Chance, die Mission zu erfüllen und heil nach Hause zu kommen. Doch der Sieg ist nicht so sicher, wie es scheint.
