United Earth burns. The Swarm runs rampant across our space. We mourn the loss of thousands of ships and millions of fallen comrades. Billions of fathers, mothers, sisters, and brothers - all gone, all dead. It is time we end this, for our moment has come. But victory never comes without sacrifice. Heroes are not taught nor trained but forged in blood and ashes. Our grandchildren's history books will tell our story and glorify the heroes and legends.

We repelled the Swarm - for now. But they won't stop: They're inhuman. They have no inhibitions. No conscience. And no mercy. But from the crucible of battle has risen an unlikely hero. Captain Timothy Granger, at the helm of another time-tested battleship, will take the fight to the enemy. He'll discover their secrets. Find their homeworld. Destroy it before they destroy ours. He will save us all. He must. Or we'll die.

Thirty years after the Second Swarm War devastated Earth and its colonies, a powerful, mysterious alien ship has invaded our space. Entire planets are ravaged, whole moons shattered. Any starship sent against it never came home. But Admiral Proctor, a war hero from our last brush with annihilation, is called out of retirement to take the reins of humanity's newest starship. The ISS Independence and her crew, with Admiral Proctor at the helm, will stand as Earth's last defense.

Captain Jacob Mercer and the USS Phoenix barely escape with their lives from the Imperial ambush at Liberty Station and soon find themselves orbiting the frontier world Destiny, a forbidding planet infested with pirate gangs. With critically unstable engines, Jake is forced to seek raw material for badly needed repairs before the ruthless Admiral Trajan tracks them down.

The fog of war clouds everything. Enemies lurk in the shadows, within the very fleet sworn to protect United Earth. Conspiracies and murder abound, and in the background.... The stalled alien invasion lurks. The Golgothic ship has burrowed deep into the core of Saturn's moon Titan, whose mass slowly but inexorably increases. The Dolmasi, once allies of United Earth in the Second Swarm War, now attack us, unhinged and without reason. And all the while, Admiral Shelby Proctor works to answer the most urgent questions of all.

Earth has fallen to the Findiri, and the resistance to their rule led by Admiral Shelby Proctor is scattered across the galaxy. Controlled by the Quiassi, who calls himself Abraham Haws - Captain Granger's old friend and XO - the Findiri unleash a storm of destruction as they hunt down Granger, their creator, and seek to end the resistance to their rule.

They’re coming. The Findiri, a savage, deadly race created to fight the Swarm, are on the hunt. But they no longer hunt the Swarm. They hunt humans. And not just any human - they seek their creator, Captain Timothy Granger, and mean to destroy him. But we are not alone. More alien races, hiding from the Swarm for millennia, also search for Earth, seeking the legend from their own stories to protect them: a being called Granger.

Captain Jake Mercer and the crew of the Phoenix finally escape from Admiral Trajan's relentless pursuit, hoping for some much needed rest and supplies. But while in the Oberon system, the 51st Brigade decides to make its move against Captain Mercer in revenge for the murder of one of its soldiers. Jake must enlist the help of a local paramilitary organization to not only regain his ship, but also to fight off the Vikorhov Federation, one of Admiral Trajan's surrogates in the sector.

Fifteen outstanding authors. Fourteen extraordinary stories. One best-selling universe. It’s the 22nd century. The galaxy has opened up to humanity as a hyperactive beehive of stargates and new technologies, and we suddenly find ourselves in a vast playground of different races, environments, and cultures. Enter the Four Horsemen universe, where only a willingness to fight and die for money separates humans from the majority of the other races. Enter a galaxy not only of mercenaries, but also of aliens, hired assassins, and accountants. Accountants?

They're all gone. We remember them like yesterday: pieces of our stolen heritage. Things like NASA. Football. Parades and pies. Good things, comfortable things. We remember a time when we were alone in the universe, safe and oblivious. But it's all gone now. We called them the Telestines, and in the face of their ruthless invasion we were powerless. By 2040, all the world's governments and militaries had fallen, and the remnants of humanity exiled to the solar system. We looked down on our blue planet, so close to our birthplace, so close to our home.

Lieutenant Jacob Mercer likes fast motorcycles, faster women, and screamin' space fighters. As a reckless fighter jock in the Resistance fleet battling the Corsican Empire, he lives solely for the thrill of taking out as many Imperial bogeys as he can. A rebel victory is looming on the horizon when the Imperials abruptly change tactics and, in a surprising show of devastating force, incinerate the city of Dallas with a thermonuclear blast - killing millions - and delivering a merciless example of what happens to upstart worlds..

Mit einer überwältigenden Streitmacht sind die Außerirdischen zurückgekehrt, stoßen tief in unser Territorium vor und versetzen die Erde in Panik. Unsere neue Technologie ist nutzlos. Unsere neuen Raumschiffe brennen wie Stroh. Alle sorgfältigen Vorbereitungen waren umsonst. Jetzt können nur ein Mann, eine Crew und das älteste Raumschiff der Flotte die Erde vor der totalen Zerstörung retten. ISS CONSTITUTION

War. It rages across United Earth space, claiming millions of lives. The Swarm have returned, larger, more fierce, and more technologically advanced than ever before. The voice from Saturn's moon Titan claiming to be Tim Granger is warning humanity that this time, the Swarm may be unstoppable. Admiral Shelby Proctor, on the run for the suspected murder of the United Earth President, knows that humanity's only hope may be a hero that's been dead for 30 years, and travels to the center of Titan to find him in Earth's darkest hour.

A rogue element within the military has stolen half the Exile Fleet and taken it to Neptune to protect the rich and powerful, drawing critical resources away from Admiral Walker on the front lines. The leader of the alien Telestines has recovered ancient devastating technologies to finally exterminate the human race. And a fanatical Telestine death cult is out for blood - both Human and their own. For them, all must die for all to ascend.

A planet made entirely of anti-matter bears down on Earth. A Swarm ship from the distant future with deadly stolen technology is on the loose. And a robotic fleet has been taken by the angry Valarisi, who now hunt their old friend Granger, who they believe will give them the secret to destroying the Swarm.

Wir hatten verzweifelt gehofft, dass sie in Frieden kommen würden. Wir hatten uns getäuscht. Dreißig Jahre nachdem der Zweite Schwarmkrieg die Erde und deren Kolonien verwüstet hatte, drang ein mächtiges und mysteriöses Alien-Schiff in unseren Raumsektor ein. Ganz Planeten wurden verheert, ganze Monde zerbrochen. Jedes dagegen eingesetzte Raumschiff verschwand.

A new podcast breaking down politics into digestible form with Phil Moorhouse and Nick Webb. Phil has an incredibly successful Youtube Channel discussing the implications of political news and has teamed up with TV producer Nick Webb to provide political insight that is easy to understand and explain.

Der Schwarm wütet in unserem Raumsektor. Wir betrauern den Verlust von Tausenden von Schiffen und Millionen gefallener Kameraden. Milliarden von Vätern, Müttern und Geschwistern – alle verschwunden, alle tot. Es ist Zeit, das ein für alle Mal zu beenden.

Wir haben den Schwarm zurückgeworfen ... momentan. Aber diese unmenschliche Bedrohung wird zurückkehren. Der Schwarm lässt sich durch nichts zurückhalten. Er hat kein Gewissen. Und gibt kein Pardon. Aber aus der Feuerprobe der Schlacht ist ein unerwarteter Held erwachsen. Captain Timothy Granger greift erneut die Feinde in einem erprobten Schlachtschiff an. Er wird deren Geheimnisse entdecken. Ihre Heimatwelt finden. Sie zerstören, bevor sie die Erde vernichten können.

Wojna szaleje w przestrzeni Zjednoczonej Ziemi i niszczy miliony istnień. Rój powrócił, większy i bardziej zajadły, do tego z miażdżącą przewagą technologiczną. Z Tytana, księżyca Saturna, nadchodzi ostrzeżenie - podobno od samego Tima Grangera - że tym razem wróg może okazać się niepokonany. Admirał Shelby Proctor, podejrzana o zamordowanie prezydenta Zjednoczonej Ziemi, ucieka. Zmierza na Tytana, bo uważa, że jedyną nadzieją ludzkości jest bohater martwy od trzydziestu lat.
