A treasure hunter. A dying alien. A legacy that could change the galaxy.

Nathan Briggs makes his living finding lost treasures others can’t—until a routine corporate espionage job puts him in the path of a dying alien who leaves him with mysterious nanites coursing through his veins.

Now he’s hunted across the stars by a ruthless military commander with galactic ambitions. His only shot at survival? A ragtag alien crew aboard a ship captained by the ex-partner who once betrayed him.

As Nate struggles to understand the power growing within him, he realizes he’s stumbled into the middle of an interstellar power struggle that’s been brewing for centuries. The alien technology in his blood could tip the balance—if he can stay alive long enough to use it.

With enemies closing in from all sides, Nate must navigate treacherous alien politics and master strange new abilities. He’s no longer just hunting treasure—he’s become it. Finding a way home seems impossible when you’re suddenly the galaxy’s most valuable commodity.

From the bestselling author of the First Colony series comes an action-packed space adventure where the greatest treasures might be the ones you never meant to find.

Sometimes the universe finds you when you’re not even looking.

Space Raiders – The Complete Series contains all three books in the series. There is a galaxy full of secrets waiting to be explored. If you’re a fan of old school heroes and villains where grit and determination are offset by a little bit of humor, then this might be the series for you.

RECOMMENDED! The spellbinding classic that started it all, from the #1 New York Times bestselling author—the inspiration for the hit television series

“A magnificent, compulsively readable thriller . . . Rice begins where Bram Stoker and the Hollywood versions leave off and penetrates directly to the true fascination of the myth—the education of the vampire.”—Chicago Tribune

Here are the confessions of a vampire. Hypnotic, shocking, and chillingly sensual, this is a novel of mesmerizing beauty and astonishing force—a story of danger and flight, of love and loss, of suspense and resolution, and of the extraordinary power of the senses. It is a novel only Anne Rice could write.

She’s hunted for what she is. He hunts those who would hurt them.

When Astrid is attacked by a creep calling himself a Slayer, it seems like a cruel prank the universe is pulling on her already crappy life.

Then Kaden, the most infuriating, stunning boy she’s ever met, arrives and tells her she’s a dragon-kin like him—part dragon, part human.

Then Astrid actually shifts into a dragon.

Wonderful.

It’s not wonderful to Kaden, who should be busy hunting down the Slayers, a group as vicious as his methods and as dark as his past. He doesn’t have time to chaperone a girl with newly awakened dragon powers, one who’s too stubborn to stay safe.

Yet as the Slayer threat grows, Astrid and Kaden will have to work together to control a magic unlike any their world has ever seen, and stop a rising darkness from destroying everything they know.

Thief. Private Investigator. Shadow Walker.

Lloyd Gibson lives in hiding as a two-bit PI, mostly taking jobs from the paranoid and delusional—the kind who think pigeons are spying on them. It pays the bills. Mostly. But when fire investigator Mireya Delgado shows up with a case involving unexplained arsons, Lloyd gets pulled into an eighty-year-old conspiracy that hits way too close to home.

He’s got no licence, no plan, and no backup. Just a strange ability to walk through shadows, and a city that’s about to go up in flames.

In Like Lloyd is a grounded, genre-blending mix of urban fantasy, conspiracy-laced sci-fi, and snark-soaked noir mystery. If you like sarcastic protagonists, secret organizations, and off-the-books investigations, this one’s for you.

“If you’re a fan of Jim Butcher’s Dresden Files, you may enjoy this, as well.” – Shannon Myers, Reedsy
