Fifty years ago, bloodthirsty aliens devastated the Earth. Most of humanity perished. We fell into darkness.

Marco Emery was born into the war. After his mother is killed, he joins the Human Defense Force, Earth’s ragtag army. Emery must survive basic training, become a soldier, and finally face the aliens in battle.

Against the alien onslaught, Earth stands alone. But we will fight. We will rise. We will win.

Locus Award Finalist: On a mysterious road built by aliens, a space trucker tries to outrun dangerous pursuers.

Independent space trucker Jake McGraw, accompanied by his father, Sam, who inhabits the body of the truck itself, his “starrig,” picks up a beautiful hitchhiker, Darla, and a trailer‑load of trouble.

One of the best of the indies, Jake knows a few tricks about following the Skyway, which connects dozens, or maybe hundreds, of planets—nobody knows how many and nobody really knows the full extent of the Skyway, and much of it remains unexplored.

But somehow, a rumor gets started that Jake has a map for the whole thing, and suddenly everybody wants a piece of him: an alien race called the Reticulans; the human government known as the Colonial Assembly; and a nasty piece of work called Corey Wilkes, head of the wildcat trucker union TATOO.

No matter what Jake does, no matter how many twists and turns he makes, he cannot shake any of the menaces on his tail.

The Starrigger series continues with Red Limit Freeway and concludes with Paradox Alley. Starrigger was a nominee for the Locus Award for Best First Novel in 1984.

When civilization is an alien experiment, one unlikely hero must rewrite the ending.

In the fractured galaxy of 2427, disgraced pilot Geddy Starheart thought his biggest problem was retrieving his stolen starship. Little did he know he was about to become entangled in a cosmic conspiracy that threatens all of existence.

When Geddy teams up with a motley salvage crew to reclaim his custom-built vessel, he discovers an unexpected passenger: an alien entity called Eli, who reveals the shocking truth about the mysterious Zelnads. These cryptic beings created humankind as a test, and now they’re ready to hit the reset button.

Armed with this knowledge and haunted by his past mistakes, Geddy has to navigate treacherous alliances, confront his personal demons, and win the trust of a formidable warrior princess whose homeworld stands as the last bastion against the Zelnad threat.

Aboard the aptly named For Sale Make Offer, Geddy and his unlikely crew race across the stars, desperately trying to reassemble a long-defunct galactic alliance for one final, epic showdown. The fate of countless worlds hangs in the balance as Geddy fights not just for redemption, but for the very soul of the universe.

“Rocket Repo” is the thrilling first installment in CP James’ Reassembly series, a space opera adventure that combines high-stakes action, unforgettable characters, and mind-bending extraterrestrial mysteries.

Prepare for a journey that will challenge your perceptions of civilization, free will, and humanity’s place in the universe.
