Survival hangs in the balance for Renton Hicks and his fellow colonists on Moon Base Delta. They are blockaded by the relentless Xilinex Corporation and running dangerously low on supplies.

However, in the unforgiving lunar landscape, every move is a high-stakes gamble. Guided by the advanced AI, DOA, Renton must outmaneuver Xilinex to secure the lifeline from Earth. He must also negotiate an uneasy alliance with the last remnants of the enigmatic SINO faction, along with building trust with the returning Martian colonists.

This third book in the riveting Moon Base Delta trilogy delves deeper into a future where survival hinges on cunning, trust, and the audacity to hope. This captivating tale of resistance, alliance, and survival against overwhelming odds will take you on a thrilling lunar adventure where the stakes are higher than ever.

In space, all that matters is survival.

Rapid colonization of the Moon is pushing both national space agencies and powerful corporations to negotiate a New Lunar Accord in an effort to prevent escalating conflicts over valuable resources and territory.

But hope that this treaty will bring stability to the nascent lunar civilization is suddenly dashed when a high-energy solar storm causes a cascade of destruction to the vast satellite constellations that orbit Earth. Now it’s only a matter of weeks before the ever-increasing debris cloud makes travel back to the home planet impossible.

Panic soon begins to grip the lunar population as they scramble to evacuate, all fearing that they could be stranded on the Moon with no prospect of ever returning to Earth. But for some, those caught in the grinding gears of the unfolding chaos, the situation becomes much worse. For them, it’s simply a matter of survival.

This is their story.

Bookish introvert Morgen Keller never thought she would have a midlife crisis. That was before her husband divorced her, her boss let her go, and her grandmother died.

Forty wasn’t supposed to look like this.

When Morgen inherits Grandma’s old farmhouse in the small town of Bellrock, Washington, it could be a chance for a fresh start.

There are just a few problems…

A fearsome werewolf has claimed the property for himself, Grandma didn’t die of natural causes, and, oh, she was a witch.

Embroiled in a mystery, and heir to powers she knew nothing about, Morgen must turn to the only person who might be able to help: the werewolf who threatened to rip her throat out for trespassing.

This isn’t the fresh start on life that Morgen had in mind.

Adapt or perish.

Trisha Walker thought the worst was behind her. Failed marriage. Her daughter’s health problems. The sudden move to Nairobi.

She thought wrong. Nothing can prepare her for the greatest transition yet: an alien invasion.

While the world crumbles under the fear of an approaching extraterrestrial armada, Trisha reluctantly plays host to a soldier, a thief, and an explosive secret. Things are getting dangerous, and that’s before the aliens land.

There’s one sliver of hope — a rumored safe place hidden atop a distant mountain. It’s a risky option, especially when a crime lord with a mysterious past comes searching for her stolen artifact of alien origin.

As wildlife, criminals, and aliens run rampant through Nairobi, Trisha is sure of only three things. Home isn’t safe. Peace is not an option. And she’ll do anything to protect her daughter.

But first, she’ll have to adjust to a world ruled by a new apex predator — humanity’s replacement.

Transition is the first book in the Avery Blake and Vered Ehsani series The Next Evolution. Discover your new favorite SciFi series today!

Winner of the Hugo, Nebula, and Philip K. Dick Awards, Neuromancer is a science fiction masterpiece—a classic that ranks as one of the twentieth century’s most potent visions of the future.

Case was the sharpest data-thief in the matrix—until he crossed the wrong people and they crippled his nervous system, banishing him from cyberspace. Now a mysterious new employer has recruited him for a last-chance run at an unthinkably powerful artificial intelligence. With a dead man riding shotgun and Molly, a mirror-eyed street-samurai, to watch his back, Case is ready for the adventure that upped the ante on an entire genre of fiction.

Neuromancer was the first fully-realized glimpse of humankind’s digital future—a shocking vision that has challenged our assumptions about technology and ourselves, reinvented the way we speak and think, and forever altered the landscape of our imaginations.
