Von Außerirdischen entführt und für Jahrzehnte eingefroren. Charlie Travers denkt, dass sein Leben nicht viel schlimmer werden kann. Er lebt über einer Pizzeria, hat seine Freundin verloren und keine Aussicht auf eine Karriere.

Jack Schafer followed his greatest enemy through a wormhole—and stranded himself on the wrong side of the galaxy. Lost on a brutal alien world of dinosaurs, rebels, and empires built on stolen god-tech, Jack is cut off from Earth, from his allies, and from the woman he loves. But survival is the easy part. Archon Draven is still alive. Still plotting. And now he's found something far worse than an army... an emperor as competent and ruthless as he is.

Jack Schafer saved Earth by accident. Saving his newly adopted home, Dravos, won't be any easier. Dravos has fallen into a new star system, sunlight blazing down on a civilization that's never known day or night. Its people are terrified. Its nobles are plotting. Its king wants answers Jack doesn't have. And the Archon Draven—the centuries-old tyrant Jack thought he'd disposed of—is recovering in the mountains, preparing for his next move. With rebellion spreading and old enemies becoming uneasy allies, Jack, Lisa, and Erik must hold a fragile kingdom together long enough to strike back.

Das Ende ist nahe …Der Krieg mit den Tahni zieht sich seit über zwei Jahren hin und fordert von allen Beteiligten einen hohen Blutzoll. In der Aphrodite-Kolonie bereitet Ryan Hendrix, der vom Marineinfanteristen in einen kybernetischen Kommandosoldaten verwandelt wurde, seine Miliz auf einen letzten Angriff gegen den Feind vor, der zu einem Himmelfahrtskommando werden könnte.

Captain Brent Parthet and the Archangels shattered the Consortium’s grip on humanity, killing the architects of a corrupt system that fueled war, exploitation, and genocide. The victory was real—but it left a vacuum no one is prepared for. With the Consortium leaderless and intelligence agencies in disarray, factions across human space scramble for power. Old enemies maneuver in the shadows, new tyrants rise overnight, and the truth Parthet exposed threatens to tear civilization apart. Chaos is spreading faster than any fleet can contain it.

Cam Alvarez führt sein Platoon von Drop Troopern ins Tahni-Imperium, in die letzten Tage des Krieges und die blutigsten Schlachten, die sie je erlebt haben. Die Tahni werden alles, was sie haben, einsetzen, um ihre Kernwelten zu verteidigen, und wenn das bedeutet, ihre eigenen Zivilisten als Schutzschilde zu benutzen, muss Lieutenant Cam Alvarez entscheiden, ob er Befehle befolgt und auf Zivilisten schießt oder seinem Gewissen folgt und seine Karriere riskiert …

Cameron Alvarez is a Marine Drop Trooper and Marines are no stranger to sacrifice. He was willing to sacrifice his life to protect the innocent, but what’s he’s been asked to give up now is far worse. Having subjected himself to the transformation virus, become linked to the power of another universe, Cam may have sacrificed his sanity—and his soul. The ghosts of that universe haunt him now, whispering in every unguarded moment, trying to turn him against the ones he loves.

Ryan Hendrix wurde während der Schlacht um Hermes schrecklich verwundet. Doch dann wurde er kybernetisch repariert, vom Geheimdienst der Raumflotte in eine Waffe verwandelt…und heimlich auf der vom Feind besetzten Kolonie Aphrodite abgesetzt, um Sabotage durchzuführen und eine Widerstandsbewegung aufzubauen.

Brent Parthet finds himself far too close to his enemies. Trapped in an uneasy alliance with the corporate monopoly and the secret police who control the Coalition, Brent and the other Archangels wonder if their new allies are worse than Conrad Janus and his Insurrection. One wants to prop up a corrupt government while the other wants to throw the galaxy into chaos, no matter how many millions of lives it costs.

Cam Alvarez kennt nichts außer Krieg. Seit drei Jahren kämpft er auf einem gottverlassenen Planeten nach dem anderen gegen marodierende Aliens, die Tahni, und führt dabei eine Truppe Drop Trooper an. Doch der Krieg steht vor einer Wende. Cam ist jetzt ein frischgebackener Offizier und hat die Leitung seines alten Platoons übernommen. Die Lage hat einen Wendepunkt erreicht. Anstatt einen verzweifelten Abwehrkampf gegen den Feind zu führen, ist das Commonwealth endlich bereit, die menschlichen Kolonien zurückzuerobern, die die Tahni zu Beginn des Krieges eingenommen haben.

Charlie and his allies have been trying desperately for months to find a way to prevent the Zha'-Rath swarm from their endgame, from conquering Earth to turn it into a hive, using humans to breed their young...and feed them.

Dr. Erik Manheim needed a warrior. A Navy SEAL. Someone who could help him confront the threat he uncovered in ancient ruins—evidence that a rogue planet brings devastation every time it passes Earth. Instead, he got Jack Schafer, a hungover bush pilot in the wrong place at the wrong time. Now, Jack is swept into a mission he was never meant to survive—one that stretches from the Alaskan wilderness to the stars beyond. Humanity's future hangs in the balance… and its best hope may be a reluctant pilot who wasn't supposed to be here at all.

Cam Alvarez ist ein Drop Trooper. Ein Krieger in der futuristischen Ritterrüstung eines Hightech-Kampfanzugs, und er ist einer der Besten. Als er zum Sergeant befördert und gebeten wird, ein Anführer zu werden, steht er vor einer ganz neuen Herausforderung. Die Marines dringen tief in feindliches Gebiet ein, und die Zahl der Opfer steigt.

Cam Alvarez is lost in the depths of the galaxy…and the only way home is through a horde of alien monsters. Cam and the others in the task force have followed Zan Thint through the Predecessor Gateway to another spiral arm of the galaxy. There, they are stranded…unless they can find another of the gateways. Following the trail of the Predecessors, who’d fled our space millennia ago, they discover one lost civilization after another…but will they find the Predecessors?

Charlie and the others hadn’t set out to free the galaxy, but fate had other plans...and so did the ancient AI robot, Lenny, who brought them together. And brought them to Sanctuary. Now, a whole planet of Copperell refugees looks to Charlie for leadership, and his first task as their commander is to find weapons to arm the AI-guided zoo ships that are their only military fleet. And only the Anguilar have the weapons they need.

As the Commonwealth reels from the devastating losses at the Battle of Coracaesium, Ranger Antonin Murdock is determined to track down the source of Sanya Baretto’s top-of-the-line weapons. The first problem? The one man who knows where is a ruthless crime lord; someone as brutal as he is unpredictable. And that’s just the start of a hunt, which will propel Murdock from the murky underbelly of Commonwealth space to beyond its frontier. And when there, amid the largest battle since the Tahni War, Murdock will confront a harsh truth.

You can’t fight a war without guns. Charlie and his friends need to arm their ship, but they have a small problem—black market particle cannons cost a lot of money. And they don’t have any. Which leaves them only one option. They have to steal the guns from the Anguilar Empire. It’s a daring plan, but it backfires when Laranna is captured by the enemy and taken back to her homeworld of Strada, which has been conquered and garrisoned by the Empire.

Charlie Travers figures his life can’t get much worse. He lives over a pizza restaurant, he’s lost his girlfriend, and has no prospects for a career. Then, he’s abducted by an alien robot and taken across the galaxy. When he wakes up, he finds himself stranded thousands of light-years away, and about to be killed by space pirates.

Murdock’s investigation into a missing freighter takes him to Coracaesium, a world he discovers has been turned into a stronghold by brutal pirate forces. They are more organized than anything he’s seen before, equipped with advanced weaponry, and led by a tactical and strategic genius.

Tired of the Fleet Intelligence game, Jack signs up for a routine bounty hunting mission. A simple bag and tag is turned on its head when he uncovers evidence that links criminal activity with a company his family is heavily invested in…a company ran by his ex-fiancée and her husband.
