A MISFIT CREW RACES AGAINST COSMIC DESTRUCTION

***FULL AND COMPLETE SERIES!***

In a vast, resource-rich fissure in space, two mighty empires are locked in an endless struggle for control.

Captain Luka Kelly leads the Renegade, a battered gunship with a crew of aliens, outcasts, and unlikely heroes — each with their own secrets and skills. As they navigate the treacherous space between the warring factions, they stumble upon a conspiracy that threatens to tear the galaxy apart.

Ships are sabotaged, diplomats assassinated, and entire fleets brought to their knees by an unseen enemy. With each explosion, the Seam inches closer to becoming an uninhabitable wasteland. Kelly and his team race against time to uncover the truth behind these attacks and prevent cosmic catastrophe.

From pulse-pounding space battles to tense diplomatic showdowns, the Starship Renegade series plunges readers into a universe where loyalty is currency and betrayal lurks around every corner. Can Kelly and his crew outmaneuver their foes and save not just one side, but both?

Strap in for an interstellar thrill ride that will keep you on the edge of your seat until the very last page. The fate of civilizations hangs in the balance, and only the Renegade can tip the scales.

What if WWII were fought in space?

In 1944, a secret Nazi experiment split the universe in two. In our universe, we won. Hitler died. Freedom prevailed. But in a parallel universe, the Nazis discovered the atom bomb first… and conquered the world. The light of freedom perished, and the Nazi shadow spread across Earth, the solar system, and the stars.

In 2207, a portal opens between our two universes. One universe of freedom. One of tyranny. And through this portal flies the Weltraumwaffe, the space fleet of the Third Reich.

James King was enjoying his retirement. He once commanded the Freedom Fleet, an armada of starships tasked with defending Earth. In his fifty years of service, Admiral King fought many battles. But he never faced anything like this.

He is old. Tired. Battle-worn. But he must don the uniform again. He must lead the Freedom Fleet once more. Or the shadows of our past will swallow us all.

WWII rages again. This time in space. The Freedom Fleet will face off against the Weltraumwaffe. Freedom or tyranny—only one can win.

From the Shadows of the Cosmos, an Ancient Evil awakens from its ten-thousand-year slumber, its presence sending ripples through the fabric of time and space. It’s seething with anger and an unquenchable thirst for revenge. Now, it sets its sights on annihilating every galaxy with merciless Fury!

Nearly exterminated by an unimaginably powerful enemy, Chase takes the battered survivors of the Star Alliance Fleet along a random escape vector…

…Their destination? A small, uncharted planet called… Earth.
There, they hope to regroup and rebuild their forces.

Little do they know that their fate was decided eons ago, and the ancient enemy is scattering their forces throughout the cosmos to hunt them down and wipe them out… one by one, until the Star Alliance is no more.

Aboard the starship Destiny, insubordinate ace pilot Lt. Chase Athanatos has always felt different—as if a mysterious force pulses through his veins, igniting his soul with the fires of destiny.

That rare, untapped power of old may very well hold the key to the survival of the cosmos.

A cosmic showdown of mythic magnitude looms on the horizon—the most devastating war the universe has ever witnessed. With morale plummeting aboard the Destiny and with Earth’s fate now hanging by a thread, Chase must face his inner demons and rise to the challenge.

But if he cannot conquer himself, how can he ever hope to defeat an evil that has been plotting the universe’s demise for all of eternity?
