“First contact, major deception!”

Can there ever be peace by the stars? Colton Beck doesn’t think so. But then again, he has six months to live…

Earth has long been occupied by the Angor, an often brutal and cryptic alien race that somehow convinced humanity to form an unjust alliance.

In a twist of fate, the Angor offer conscription to a colony world, and humans line up to visit the mysterious Dicore. They are even given temporary access to the River, an alien technology that grants passage between worlds.

Colton wants to truly live, if only for a short amount of time, so he finds a way to sneak into the elite army, and emerges on the other side of the River. But what is there to greet him?

Then one night a meteor storm devastates the county, cutting off power and phones. One giant rock crashes into Andy’s neighborhood, skids up the street, and stops right on Andy’s front lawn. The towering boulder draws the attention of neighbors, the media, the army, and even the new girl from Andy’s art class. He is thrilled at the notoriety, but everything changes when the meteor opens and a towering machine steps out.

Separated from his family, Andy must fend for himself and rescue his friends. Join the adventure as Andy meets an alien, devises a plan to stop the invasion, and learns how strong he really is.

A vanished colony. A forbidden landing,

And an impossible choice that could cost it all.


Captain Ethan Walker is just trying to haul freight, keep his ship flying, and live by the rules. But when he arrives at Starlight Colony with his cargo and two paying passengers, he finds it eerily abandoned.

No people. No remains. No explanation.

Just empty buildings and an echoing silence where one hundred thousand people should be.

Ethan is obligated to report the missing colony to authorities, and FleetCom orders him to wait for a patrol ship to confirm the discovery. Unfortunately, his shipping company demands he return his cargo safely to Earth. Immediately.

When his passengers make a reckless choice that forces his hand, Ethan must disobey everyone’s orders and risk his ship, his license, and the trust of his crew, to go down to the colony.

What he finds could change everything.

The mystery begins in Echoes of Starlight. Read it now and take your first step into the epic world of Wings of Earth. Discover a truth that will shake the stars.
