Gideon Quinn has a handful of starbucks, a draco named Elvis, and a target on his back.

Wrongly convicted of treason, Colonel Gideon Quinn is serving a life sentence under the killing suns of the Morton Barrens. But after six years of hard labor, a general of the Colonial Corps arrives with an offer of freedom, and the chance to clear his name.

Gideon (not being an idiot), seizes the opportunity and, with his pet draco Elvis, boards an airship bound for Nike City in search of revenge. And justice. But mostly revenge.

What he finds is a daring street-thief in need of a champion, a city steeped in corruption, and a mysterious enemy hell-bent on safeguarding their deadly secrets.

Now Gideon is engaged in an entirely different kind of war—one that plays out in the shadows—and if he loses this battle, Fortune’s new and fragile peace will certainly shatter.

Welcome to the planet Fortune, where tech is low, heroes unlikely, and the odds ridiculous. If you like low-tech science fiction, found families, and feel-good adventures, you’ll love Soldier of Fortune.

This is the second, newly-edited edition of Soldier of Fortune.

Books in the Series:
Soldier of Fortune
Outrageous Fortune
Change of Fortune
Fortune’s Fool

In the aftermath of the war between Star League and the Planetary Republic, the old regime’s borders continue to wither. Now down to a fraction of its previous holdings, the former tetrarchy is held together by Julian Thrall’s youngest “daughter,” Jade.

She rules with an iron fist under the tutelage of StarCen, the League’s primary AI. But Jade Thrall is no human. She is instead the most advanced android ever conceived, so sophisticated she is not even aware of her artificial nature.

What she does know are all the tricks of subterfuge and cruelty required of a ruthless dictator. Her greatest tool to claw back power and strengthen her hold on the realm?

Assassins.

Remington Rennison acquired Jade for StarCen shortly after the bot’s creation. Now on the Planetary Republic’s side, she is tasked by PLAIR to stop Jade at all costs. Along the way, her team discovers the founders sequestered StarCen’s original code, which can be used to reset the AI and possibly free millions from the yoke of tyranny.

To save the League and reset the code, Remington must find it first . . . and try to stay alive.

Now a New York Times bestseller!

Inheriting your uncle’s supervillain business is more complicated than you might think. Particularly when you discover who’s running the place.

Charlie’s life is going nowhere fast. A divorced substitute teacher living with his cat in a house his siblings want to sell, all he wants is to open a pub downtown, if only the bank will approve his loan.

Then his long-lost uncle Jake dies and leaves his supervillain business (complete with island volcano lair) to Charlie.

But becoming a supervillain isn’t all giant laser death rays and lava pits. Jake had enemies, and now they’re coming after Charlie. His uncle might have been a stand-up, old-fashioned kind of villain, but these are the real thing: rich, soulless predators backed by multinational corporations and venture capital.

It’s up to Charlie to win the war his uncle started against a league of supervillains. But with unionized dolphins, hyper-intelligent talking spy cats, and a terrifying henchperson at his side, going bad is starting to look pretty good.

In a dog-eat-dog world…be a cat.

At the Publisher’s request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

In twenty-second century L.A. dominated by The Cloud, every imaginable pleasure is accessible—yet the entire world can vanish in a single upload.

That choice rests in one man’s hands.

Blaise, a brilliant but tormented VR programmer, is trying to forget his violent past as a special forces commando by throwing himself into creating VR fantasies. He finds himself tempted by his megalomaniac boss, who offers him wealth, power, and eternal life in exchange for coding a new VR series that will addict and eliminate billions of “unproductives.”

Caught between joining those who want to bring down the ruling Cloud regime in Hong Kong, or accepting the offer of personal immortality, Blaise finds himself flanked by two relentless women—a psychic hacker risking overwhelming personal odds to save humanity from annihilation, and the other using her extraordinary carnal wiles to accelerate the final triumph of The Cloud. Ultimately, Blaise must reembrace his violent warrior nature in a desperate bid to destroy it.
