The Sectiaan invasion has begun, and the Consortium wasn't ready. Major worlds are falling daily to the aliens' superior technology. Even Hank's coalition of Peacers, Inquisitors, and soldiers can barely slow their advance. When the aliens demonstrate their ability to control organic minds, the situation becomes truly desperate. As Emortium itself comes under attack, Hank realizes that everything they learned fighting Twain might not be enough. Some enemies can't be beaten with conventional tactics, and some wars can't be won with force alone.

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 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.

Drake and Yukiko have made the journey to the capital of the Jontihem Nation to defend their actions and find ways to secure their rights, but the government is filled with inertia and paper pushers that look down on new things and seek to make complications vanish into an endless pile of papers that no one will ever read.

The mystery deepens when Ozzy and his growing crew aboard the Phoenix III arrive to find Earth has fallen from its former glory—and is now under the control of a secretive group known as the Axiom Guard. With help from a grizzled Recon Marine, Ozzy must fend off this mysterious order of scientists and Concord enforcers that will stop at nothing to get their hands on the Mythbreaker.

In order to bring the fight to the alien invaders, Hank must return to his scrapping roots and look for help from the unlikeliest of places. The combined forces of every surviving species launch a desperate assault on the Sectiaan homeworld. When faced with the ultimate choice between survival and evolution, Hank must decide if their coalition's worth lies in its capacity for destruction or its ability to change. The answer will determine not just their survival, but their place in the galaxy.

With their main enemy among the Jontihem in disarray, Drake and Yukiko must act against the city of Kiros before their foes get their feet back underneath them. It's time to turn them against one another. Only before they can get started, there are rumbles from below the city of Atlantis. It seems their explorations have awoken something.

Ozzy escaped the Concord, but the path to Eritol is fraught with new dangers. Space travel is not for the faint of heart. When an encounter with Captain Voidclaw and his pirates of the Rising Dawn damages Stormy's ship, the crew is forced to dock at Dilennia, a haven for criminals, pirates, and cyberthieves.

The Authority has been driven off, but Drake and Yukiko still have a lot of problems in search of solutions. And then there is the deepening mystery of Those Who Came Before. Evidence is starting to suggest that they are not what everyone here thought. They are likely not the ones who built the alien travel network that brought them here and trapped them.

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.

Drake and Yukiko have been preparing the floating city of Atlantis for three million refugees, but every time they solve one problem, another pops up. The Jontihem are unsure of how to respond, and then there is the ancient alien facility on the sea floor under Atlantis. Why did Those Who Came Before build it? What was its purpose? Why is it still active? Those secrets, and many more, are waiting to be revealed. If, of course, Drake can keep The Authority from killing him and taking it all over. Or can the alien structure strike back at those who wish it harm?

With the threat of Twain defeated, something strange is happening at the edge of known space. Ships are disappearing without a trace, and Hank's concerns are being dismissed as paranoia. But when an entire colony vanishes overnight, he knows he has to act. The problem is, no one wants to hear about a new threat so soon after the last war. Working with his closest allies, Hank begins to uncover evidence of something far worse than Twain ever was. An alien force has been watching humanity for centuries, and now they're done just observing.

When Noah and his friends receive a distress call from a merchant fleet in Walen Prime, they respond with all haste. "Happy as a Walen" is a saying in the Gavant Reach and no one can imagine murder and mayhem in the most welcoming star system in the galaxy. It doesn't take long for Noah and his friends to realize that the people are kind, generous, and uplifting, but their neighbors are not. Even more challenging are the beautiful but harsh landscapes of Walen Prime.

Twain has made his move and the invasion has begun. As the Disciples invade many planets in several systems, Hank hopes that the united species will be able to hold out long enough for his counter-attack. The crew go on one last desperate quest to find Twain's location and discover a new way to fight back. But even if they survive, they will need all their friends and allies to bring the fight to Twain. Will Hank and the crew last long enough to stop Twain or will the Enemy AI finally take control of the universe once and for all?

Can Noah Gantz save the living starship that rescued him from the failed warp bubble experiment? Everything is on the line for Kayan's Crew. One thing is certain, they won't just fade away. All they must do is secure the secret weapon no one admits is real, learn to use it, and get to the party in time to save the day.

After Twain's attack, things are looking desperate for the Consortium, and Hank knows that the only way they are going to be able to win the coming war is if they work together. As the species did during the Old War, they will have to unite or die.

Ozzy thought the "star stories" Alvin told him were nothing more than the wild imaginings of an old man—until the Concord I-Bots attack his village to get to Alvin. In the midst of the attack, Ozzy discovers the Mythbreaker—an ancient staff of incredible power. And it talks to him. Ozzy must navigate a galaxy in freefall to track down the lost pieces of the Mythbreaker, and unlock the relic's full power—before the Concord completes their own ultimate weapon, the Heart of Darkness.

Drake and Yukiko have been dropped on the far side of the galaxy with no way back home. The ancient travel network created by the mysterious Those Who Came Before needed a supernova to power it for the trip out and it doesn’t look like there is likely to be another one anytime soon.

When the rest of the True fleet jumps into the Gildain system with their planet-ships, everything changes from worse to impossible. These new enemies send a shutdown order that drops eighty percent of Ron's people in their tracks. But that isn't the crux of this disaster. Betrayal, mutant epidemic, and the overwhelming strength of their newest enemy threatens the end of the Blue Sun Armada.

When Ryn, Scratch, and Cel disappear on their first mission, Noah and Kayan's crew investigate. Can they prevent a Masterless Tyton from springing a deadly trap, or will they learn what it means to become the hunted? By the end of the mission, they will learn what it takes to turn a Tyton colony into Terror Prime. Not all symbionts are friends, and teamwork may not be enough to ensure victory.
