Independent action is a necessity for the sole Royal Capitoline Navy captain patrolling the border region. But Liam will have to defend his actions later in front of the Admiralty board. How can he best serve his realm?

Widowed in the recently ended twelve year war between Capitoline and Palantine, she now makes a living as an independent tagger in border space.

It's the beginning of a new golden age of space exploration. Finally, humanity is taking the commercialization of space to the next level-mining asteroids. The new gold rush of the commercial space era has begun. Another commercial venture, an attempt to put a hotel on the Moon, is seeking the space tourism gold of the ultra wealthy. And it seems as if the dream of finally sending people to Mars is finally going to happen using a ship propelled by a powerful nuclear rocket. But space travel isn't cut and dry, and there is nothing routine about it.

Sakunja Salazar had it all. Money, toys, women, and all the drugs money could buy. A breakout Holo influencer, seemingly overnight she lifted her family out of their tiny Mexico City apartment and into the world of the rich and famous. That all changed when she hopped on a rocket and blasted into the cosmos, never to hawk lavender moisturizer again.

After a surprising victory, Carter Ash finds himself leading a large civilization during a tumultuous time. But there’s no time to rest—The remnants of his former enemies still threaten his people’s stability, while an old foe grows ever stronger. The only way to survive is to keep building the United Interplanetary Republic. With the help of a flirtatious scientist’s eager experiments, he struggles against increasingly bleak odds.

ALLIANCEWhen stillness becomes a decision, movement has consequences. The Protostar was never meant to matter. A damaged ship. A fractured crew. A routine escape that should have ended quietly. Instead, it becomes the fault line in a universe built on procedure, containment, and rules that only work when no one asks what they’re protecting. Casey Malkovitch never wanted to be important. Billy Cainally just wanted to fly. Together, they discover that the systems meant to prevent catastrophe are often the ones that decide who is allowed to survive it.

Alexander's victory over a ruthless pirate lord has made him a marked man. His name now echoes across the frontier, a hero to some, a threat to others, and a prize the self-proclaimed Pirate Emperor Harlow cannot ignore. To defend his home on Eden's End, Alexander seeks allies among the Asgardian Union, a powerful faction born of betrayal and survival. The STO calls them pirates, but Alexander soon learns the truth is far more complicated. While he struggles to earn their trust, Harlow turns his fury toward him. This time, the war will not stop at one world.

The unmissable conclusion to the science fiction series that has it all—ancient aliens, rogue AIs, beleaguered royalty, semi-repentant pirates, and the chance to go where no humans have gone before (well, not for five hundred years)—all wrapped up in the possibility of a happy-ever-after for everyone (bad guys excluded).

On the remote world of Eden's End, Alexander has carved out a fragile refuge: a workshop turned enterprise, a home for thousands, and a place to raise the daughter he never expected to have. But peace never lasts. The pirate attack that nearly destroyed them has not gone unnoticed. The Sol Treaty Organization has begun to take an interest, and so has Katalynn Char, the ruthless warlord who rules the region. Worse still, the man who first sent the pirates refuses to let Alexander slip away. This time, he has hired a relentless killer, one who will stop at nothing to drag Alexander back.
