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.

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.

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.

Wir haben eine Schlacht gewonnen … aber wir verlieren den Krieg. Das Image von Travis Miller hat sich geändert. Er ist nicht mehr der Idiot, der den ersten Kontakt mit Aliens vermasselt hat, sondern einer der Helden der Schlacht um Eden. Nun erhält er einen neuen Auftrag: die besetzte Kolonie Brigantia zurückzuerobern. Deren Verlust wäre ein leichter Schlag für das Tahni-Imperium, aber auch der erste wirkliche Gegenangriff der Erde, eine Chance, in die Offensive zu gehen.

The Zha'-Rath can control the minds of sentient beings, can turn them into spies, drones and zombies, and nothing can stop them. Except Varnell. Gib's people are immune to the mind control and can deprogram its victims with just their voices. But the Varnell are exiles, treated like the con artists and criminals they've become, not likely to volunteer for a dangerous mission to save all the worlds who've oppressed them for centuries.

Dem kleinen Straßengauner Cam Alvarez fällt die Entscheidung leicht. Er hat keine Familie, keine Freunde, keinen Platz in der Welt … und nichts zu verlieren. Als sein letzter Coup zum Tod eines Kartell-Killers führt, beschließt Cam, sich den Marines anzuschließen und die Erde zu verlassen, um gegen einen bösartigen außerirdischen Feind zu kämpfen. Bei den Drop-Troopern der Marines entdeckt Cam, dass er in einer Sache noch besser ist als im Leben auf der Straße: im Töten des Feindes.

So close to home... And yet farther away than ever. Cam, Vicky, and the others follow the jump gate line into the Reconstructor systems, hoping to find the Northwest Passage back to Earth…back home. Instead, they find death and destruction. And an ancient mystery.

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.

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.

Ripley facing down the Xenomorph Queen. Sarah Connor fighting the Terminator. David Weber’s Honor Harrington. Science fiction novels and the silver screen are full of badass women kicking butt and taking names. Sometimes it’s the momma bear persona stepping up to defend her young, but, other times, she’s just the meanest one standing—bionic arm or not!

Four complete books. Explosive, military sci-fi action completes the entire second arc of the best-selling Drop Trooper Series.

For Jack Bennet, thwarting catastrophe on his home world came at a price he wasn’t willing to pay. Unable to navigate the pain, he falls into a destructive lifestyle until his girlfriend—and Fleet Intelligence handler—uncovers reports of a new imminent threat: one that can only be solved by a bounty hunter of Jack’s caliber.

The Hive Mind has deceived the Americans and the Thacians into believing they had the strategy that would destroy it once and for all…and instead, they opened the gates through to Thacia and, from there, into the United States. And the demons streamed through by the tens of thousands, too many for artillery and air support to drive them back. The Army and Air Force keep pouring on the hurt, but it’s only a matter of time until they’re forced to do the unthinkable…nuke an American city.

Grant Masterson is a man with nothing left to lose.... A disgraced ex-cop, framed by a crooked politician, abandoned by his family, he’s forced into the life of a bounty hunter just to survive. Tracking down a traitor who stole military-grade weapons to sell on the black market, Masterson finds out things aren’t as simple as the wanted poster made them seem. Because Delia Beckett isn’t a traitor, simply a patsy, and the forces manipulating her may be the same ones responsible for Masterson’s fall from grace.

As Jack’s reputation increases, so does the size of the bounty on his own head, but that’s not the worst of it.... The conspiracy he’s uncovered points to a doomsday scenario, an impending act of depraved violence with steep collateral damage—and it’s set to happen right on his home planet.

Jack Bennet has done the impossible: collected on a bounty in the notorious Pirate Worlds. He’s earned himself a nice boost to his reputation, a hefty payday...and a cult of enemies hell-bent on revenge. Reaching out to a friend at Fleet Intelligence lands Jack an offer he can’t refuse, but to collect, he’ll have to take the plunge back into the viper’s nest.

It's the final showdown between Cam and a rogue Tahni general.... And it might be the end of everything. Cam and Vicky are chasing down Zan-Thint to his last fortress, a lifeless world deep in Tahni space. If they can't take him down before he activates an ancient alien weapon, a swarm of biomechanical killing machines will wipe out all life in the Commonwealth.
