The bad news: Alora is dead.

The good news: She just landed her dream job.

Or rather, she got a job making dreams for those still alive on Earth. But working in the Afterworld for Dreamweavers, LLC isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. Her boss, the Greco-Roman god of dreams, couldn’t care less about anything. Her coworkers, a bunch of bedsheet-wearing ghosts, don’t trust her. Worst of all, she just discovered that Chernobog, the god of misfortune and head of the Nightmare Department, is plotting a hostile takeover of the whole company.

Driven by a mysterious yet familiar mantra—If you’re going to do something, do it right—Alora undertakes a desperate gambit to save her job, department, and maybe the entire Dreamscape. That means uncovering all she can about Chernobog’s schemes and exposing the dastardly demon’s plot to the highest power she knows, Dreamweavers’ Chief Operations Officer, before it’s too late.

He unearthed the galaxy’s most powerful alien artifact. Now, he must run to survive.

Jax Mulder is just trying to survive. Scraping a living as a Breaker in the perilous, interstellar junkyards, he’s used to risking his neck for worthless space trash. But when he unearths an impossibly rare, glowing alien artifact, he thinks his days of grueling poverty are finally over.

His dreams shatter when a savage betrayal causes the entire sector to learn of his discovery. Instantly, Jax becomes the most hunted man in the cosmos.

Forced into a reluctant alliance with Mara Holt, a strict Beyond Earth Authority officer, Jax must outfly ruthless rival scavengers and evade a terrifying, emotionless corporate assassin known only as the Agent.

On the run, and fighting for their lives, Jax and Mara realize that the artifact is worth more than just cold, hard cash. It could unlock the greatest secrets of the universe. Secrets the mega-corporations will do anything to own.

Outgunned and running out of places to hide, Jax and Mara must make an impossible choice. Will they surrender the artifact to a ruthless corporate dynasty, or risk it all to keep the secrets of the alien relic for themselves?

Starship Breaker is book one of the Alien Coded series, by Kindle Storyteller Award winner, G J Ogden. Perfect for fans of fast-paced science fiction adventures like J.N. Chaney’s Backyard Starship and A.K. DuBoff’s Starship of the Ancients, packed with alien discovery, action, humor, and mystery.

Terror from the stars. Aliens have arrived.

But the armies of humanity are far away. Issue the emergency recall!

Bring the HFP home to defend Earth.

For all humanity.

By order of Janus Seven, Leader of Humanity

For fans of Starship Troopers, Halo, Battleship Leviathan, and other military science fiction.

Gumshoe. Racoon. Noir. Do you need any other words to sell you on this book?

Really? Okay, it’s sci-fi with a plausible explanation for this futuristic scenario. The explanation is woven into the story cleverly (perhaps by clever little raccoon hands?) You’ll never feel bogged down in backstory. I loved it.

Here’s the publisher’s note:

Philip Marlowe meets Redwall in this superior adult noir tale, where all the characters are animals, fighting for survival in the city underneath the humans.

In the solar cities of the future, the humans relax in the sun and the animals work in the shadows. Genetically engineered Little Helpers, serving humanity—unseen, unheard.

Meet Skotch. Raccoon, PI—yours for a few buttons as long as the job isn’t too illegal, whatever that means.

A mouse has gone missing. Normally this wouldn’t raise any hackles, nor any alarms, but this mouse has something that everyone seems to want, though nobody appears particularly eager to say what that something is.

The fee is good—perhaps too good. Certainly not something Skotch can easily turn down.

If only Skotch can work out where the mouse is hiding, what he’s hiding, and why his secrets are upsetting a lot of animals caught up in the Green City wars.

It’s the year 2465, two hundred years since the stars were opened to Humanity by the invention of the shift drive. Its discovery began the First Interstellar Expansion Era, catapulting Humanity into a deadly race for the limited resources of navigable space. Now tensions between the Human nations are threatening to boil over into open hostility.

Into this maelstrom steps the exiled Commander James Somerville of the Royal Space Navy. Banished from London to the survey ship HMS Drake, he is about to make a discovery that may change his fortunes and throw Britain into a deadly war with its closest rival. With only his wits and the courage of his crew to see him through, he will be challenged like never before.


The Void War is a military science fiction novel and the first book in the epic twenty-two novel Empire Rising series that charts the rise of James Somerville’s career and Humnaity’s desperate struggle for survival in a hostile galaxy.
