The Emperor of the galaxy has fallen, slain at the hands of his own son.

Forced into exile, Katrijn was tasked with a mission sent to her by her father from beyond the grave: free the people of the Andlios Republic. Her biggest hurdle? First it’s the assassins sent after her by the emperor. After years alone on the fringes of the galaxy, who will be there to help her dethrone the mad emperor and reclaim the throne. Then, it’s dealing with her brother…

The Mad Emperor himself.

Katrijn must carve her own path forward, forging new alliances and swallowing her pride to take whatever help she can find along the way, no matter how… unconventional that help seems, even from sworn enemies.

If dethroning her deranged brother isn’t hard enough, she’s not the only one gunning for the throne, making it a deadly race to save the people of Andlios in this action-packed space epic.

The war is over, and there are no winners. Just a broken galaxy.

Now humans and aliens must share this war-torn galaxy. None of this matters to Drake, though, he’s just an artist. He’s tagging along on the busted up ship Trystero, along with its ragtag crew. Together, they traverse the Demilitarized Zone between Terran and Gra’al borders, taking on any job they can find. Big or small. Human or alien.

The galaxy changes when the crew encounters a derelict alien ship, its crew slaughtered. With his dying breath, a crewman points them to a box. In it? An abandoned alien baby. When their government refuses to get involved, Drake and the crew need to return the baby they’ve been calling Bruce home, a bloodthirsty warlord on their tail.

His quest? Find Bruce and claim the Gra’al throne, declaring a new war on humanity.

Drake never wanted to be a hero… now he’s all that stands in the way of a fragile peace between humans and aliens.

With each cough, death looms closer.

A cure out of reach for a humble monk living in the desert.

New meaning enters his life when the most powerful leader on Andlios discovers Am’ranth’s inventions and tasks him with the project of a lifetime. That project? A symbol of power during a time of peace, a weapon called the pulseaxe.

An unlikely friendship between rivals is born, only to find itself tested by Am’ranth’s sickness and newfound desire to live. He’ll stop at nothing to accomplish, even if it means defying his new friend’s wishes by experimenting on himself. The rivalry born from this disagreement gives birth to a new future for humanity, one of legends. It also leads to the creation of a new race of hybrid people, with powers beyond the imagination at their fingertips where death is only an option.

Enter the Cymages.

The Cymage is a novella exploring the history of the Andlios galaxy.
