What would you do if you materialised inside an alien starship?

It’s 2049, and NASA-sponsored physicist Edward Virr is on the cusp of man’s greatest breakthrough – the ability to fold space and travel faster than light.

He personally tests NASA’s futuristic prototype fold ship with a hand-picked crew. But as disaster strikes the first mission, Ed begins to suspect that he isn’t the only one developing the new technology.

Discovering there’s a lot more at stake than first contact, Ed soon realises that Earth’s very survival depends on his ability to solve a crime of galactic proportions.

Join Edward Virr and his rag-tag crew as they undertake their first space adventure into the depths of the Milky Way.

Five foot nothing and no fear because she drives a sixty-ton mech. Enter Lieutenant Xi Bao…

Does humanity deserve to survive?

The Metal Legion, aging mechs with a lot of fight left in them. They lead the way, find the enemy’s weaknesses and exploit the hell out of them. Then they call in suborbital artillery to finish the job, even while the battle rages.

Never fight fair when fighting for your life. This is the motto of the Metal Legion.

They fight to win.

The mechs stand tall, or crawl, or run, or scamper. A dozen different designs, held together by rough welds and sheer willpower. But the bodies within, like Xi Bao, refuse to give up, refuse to give in.

Taking her Scorpion-class mech underground, she finds the enemy, in numbers far greater than she was told. Knee deep in the war, her crew gives their old mech new vigor for one last chance at glory.

Victory or death! Fight to survive.

Fire the mains and enjoy the company of the crew as they live for each other, as they fight for all humanity. Unleash the Scorpion’s fury. Join the Metal Legion today.

EXCLUSIVE: READ THE FINAL TWO BOOKS IN THE SERIES BEFORE THEY ARE RELEASED!

Ancient tech. Lost history. A mission buried in silence.

“A really great story that you can’t put down.” -Goodreads reviewer

The Massey brothers have seen plenty of strange things salvaging in deep space… but nothing like the massive, silent vessel drifting near the edge of known territory. No heat. No life signs. Just a relic from a war no one’s ever heard of.

Then the ship powers on.

Trapped inside a labyrinth of deadly alien technology with a crew on edge and systems that seem to have a mind of their own, they must figure out what the ship wants… and what it will destroy.

It’s not abandoned. It’s hunting.

But the brothers and crew aren’t alone for long. Others are interested in the ship. Raiders are closing in. A cold war is heating up. And something terrifying is waking in the dark.

Welcome aboard the Vanguard. Pray it doesn’t remember what it was built to do.

Note: The First Wave series is an homage to thrilling pulp sci-fi of yesteryear. If you’re interested in hard science fiction look elsewhere. But if you’re looking for action-packed adventures on strange worlds with even stranger aliens, this series is for you!

** The thrilling finale trilogy to the 25-book Amaranthe saga begins **

A war has raged for endless aeons. Our greatest champions have fought it again and again in a tireless endeavor to save not merely innumerable lives, but existence itself.

It is a war that has never been won. But there has never been a timeline like this one before.

When Alex Solovy deactivated the Piega Strai to save two billion Elakri from annihilation, she never imagined the consequences would ripple across the universe. Now the Dzhvar, ancient devourers of the cosmic manifold, have returned from their million-year exile. And the weapon that once repelled them, diati, is nowhere to be found.

Though haunted by guilt, loss, and the weight of a relentless cycle of sacrifice, Alex and her allies—warriors, scientists, sentient planets and primordial beings—must step up to confront an impossible enemy. While Miriam marshals fleets to battle a foe no armament can touch and Alex probes scars in the cosmic fabric to solve a puzzle that spans time and space, Nika’s quest to unlock new kyoseil abilities pushes her ever closer to discovering the devastating truth about her past and future.

Secrets a million years in the making are about to come into the light.

In this epic opening to the Amaranthe saga’s final trilogy, destinies long foretold collide with shocking new revelations. Every alliance created, every technological marvel invented and every hero forged will be brought to bear against an enemy that threatens to unravel the very threads of the universe.

If Alex Solovy has anything to say about it, for the last time.

Cyberpunk and space opera collide in a thrilling new trilogy from the author of the acclaimed Aurora Rhapsody saga. When man and machine are one and the same, there are many crimes but only one sin: psyche-wipe. The secrets it has buried could lead to a civilization’s salvation, or to its doom.

The Asterion Dominion is at peace with its neighbors and itself. Its citizens enjoy great freedoms and all the luxuries their biosynthetic minds can imagine, design and create. But beneath the idyllic veneer, something is going wrong. People are going wrong, driven to commit inexplicable crimes without motive or purpose. And once imprisoned for those crimes, they simply vanish.

Psyche-wiped and dumped in an alley 5 years ago, awakened into a culture where ancestral memories stretch back for millennia, Nika Tescarav’s past is a blank canvas. But if whoever erased her did so in the hope of silencing her, they should have tried harder.

Someone must speak for the lost.

Someone must uncover how and why they became lost.

Someone must find the lost.

Nika is that someone.

A burnout captain. An obsolete starship. One more mission for both.

Tenacity is the last of the Fenris-class battlecruisers, the “Old Wolf” as her crew calls her. Captain Dath Raker—storied, scarred, and outrageous—gets called worse. But the command’s been his last, best chance to shine, even if it’s just showing the Republic of Sanctuary flag while ferrying a delegation to peace talks.

The Republic’s deadliest rival has no interest in peace. Deranged by centuries in thrall to obscene alien gods, the Golgothan Empire is ready to make their big move. And a meeting of the star-nations is a perfect way to get all their enemies in one place.

The Golgothans’ plan relies on surprise and the rapid collapse of resistance.

They’re about to find out that Tenacity is more than just a name.
