Before the Void Wraith. Before the Eradication.

One man had a chance to stop it all, and failed…

Captain Dryker is a washed up vet mining on the fringes of the Kuiper belt. He loads rocks into the Folly’s railgun, and fires them back to his corporate overlords on Earth. Boring, just the way he likes it. Until one day it isn’t.

An alien signal bursts from Pluto, which as it turns out is neither a planet, nor a planetoid body. It is an ancient defense satellite activated because it detected the return of the Vuka Spectra. The Void Wraith.

Dryker is the closest ship on the scene, but not the only one vying for the prize. Hostile aliens have emerged from our sun using something called a Helios Gate. The savage Tigris have come not just for the satellite, but to conquer Earth.

Dryker’s only hope is finding something, anything, within the installation to counter the alien’s superior technology and save mankind.

The prequel to the Void Wraith Saga. Learn how it all began…

Humanity’s End is Upon Us

The Tigris have declared a Sacred Hunt against Earth. During the last battle Dryker’s daring plan turned back their vanguard, but now the entire fleet has arrived.

Thousands of Tigris vessels converge upon our world, with only a few dozen battleships, and our remaining orbital defense platforms to shield us.

Captain Dryker is placed under the command of the sadistic Doctor Reid, and sent to reactivate an ancient Void Wraith factory. Within this factory slumbers an army of Void Wraith, and a fleet of harvesters. But if he succeeds those forces will not work for Earth.

They will begin the Eradication, and wipe out everything.

A genetically enhanced leopard. He serves in the Federation Compact Army for one purpose. To go where it is too dangerous to send “real” soldiers.

Hannibal is one of a four-animal team. A human warrant officer controls them because their free will has been bred, trained, and cut out them. They need orders to follow. Except Hannibal feels the call of the wild. It’s starting to clash with his programming. He is reverting, but has to hide it unless he wants to be executed, his brain dissected to see what went wrong.

The gods of war smile upon the enemy, bringing Hannibal’s internal struggle into the light as he must rise above his programming if he is to lead his fellow animals through the battle. Survive, even if it means they are signing their own death warrants.

Written by a veteran combat Marine, the battle scenes are realistic and will take you on a wild ride through small unit combat. Pick it up today.

Book Review Off Leash Freelance Familiars Book 1

by

Off Leash (Freelance Familiars Book 1) Kindle Edition by Daniel Potter (Author)

Another fun book! Off Leash is the story of Thomas Khatt, mild mannered, out-of-work, milquetoast librarian who, after a horrific and magical accident, wakes up looking like his last-namesake.

As if finding himself a cat–specifically a cougar–isn’t challenging enough (he misses his thumbs), he also finds himself highly sought after as a familiar, i.e., slave.

To keep his freedom he needs to fend off a fairy godmother-esque slave trader (familiar trader?), figure out who caused the magical accident, and try to save the most abused of all captive magical beasts.

This is a fun ride. Personally, for me, the show was stolen by Rudy, the pyromaniacal squirrel (if you’ve read Chaos and Fates you may have picked up on my fondness for opinionated squirrels.) Rudy goes from bitter familiar trader to ally–and his efforts to keep Thomas and other “carnies” from accidentally eating him are hilarious.

Off Leash is available at  Amazon US, United Kingdom, Canada, Germany, Australia
