HUMANITY IS DEFEATED
Ten years ago the Sythians invaded the galaxy with one goal: to wipe out the human race.

THEY ARE HIDING
Now the survivors are hiding in the last human sector of the galaxy: Dark Space—once a place of exile for criminals, now the last refuge of mankind.

THEY ARE ISOLATED
The once galaxy-spanning Imperium of Star Systems is left guarding the gate which is the only way in or out of Dark Space—but not everyone is satisfied with their governance.

AND THEY ARE KILLING EACH OTHER
Freelancer and ex-convict Ethan Ortane is on the run. He owes crime lord Alec Brondi 10,000 sols, and his ship is badly damaged. When Brondi catches up with him, he makes an offer Ethan can’t refuse. Ethan must infiltrate and sabotage the Valiant, the Imperial Star Systems Fleet carrier which stands guarding the entrance of Dark Space, and then his debt will be cleared. While Ethan is still undecided about what he will do, he realizes that the Imperium has been lying and putting all of Dark Space at risk. Now Brondi’s plan is starting to look like a necessary evil, but before Ethan can act on it, he discovers that the real plan was much more sinister than what he was told, and he will be lucky to escape the Valiant alive. . . .

The Forerunners set out from Earth to colonize neighboring star systems…

Arrival
They have arrived.
Chris Randall just lost his job. That night, while picking up his wife from work, flaming debris rain across the valley, and a dark mass sails out of the clouds, headed straight for LA.
It’s not a Union starship, because they can’t defy gravity like that.
Whatever it is, it’s not from Earth…

Nightstalkers

Broken Worlds
They went to sleep on Earth, but where did they wake up?

A DEAD STAR IS HEADED FOR EARTH…
THE SHIFT IN EARTH’S ORBIT WILL UNLEASH A NEW ICE AGE…
AND THIS SUMMER WILL BE OUR LAST.

THE NEWS BREAKS
Logan Willis’s life is falling apart: he lost his job and found out that his wife is cheating on him all in the same day. Thinking that his world has ended, Logan checks into a hotel and turns on the TV to see that he’s not far wrong—radio telescopes have detected mysterious signals coming from inside our solar system, and the source is moving toward us at over 500 miles per second. The media concludes that these signals must be of an alien origin. Still reeling from the news, Logan gets a phone call from his brother-in-law. Richard is talking crazy about the end of the world again, but this time he doesn’t sound so crazy.

A DEADLY CONSPIRACY UNRAVELS
Meanwhile, Richard, who is an astronomer working with the James Webb Space Telescope, is at the White House briefing the president to announce what he and the government have known for almost a decade: aliens are not invading, a frozen ball of gas is. The so-called rogue star is predicted to make a near pass with Earth, disrupting our orbit and unleashing an ice age, the likes of which we haven’t seen for millions of years.

WE’RE PUTTING A COLONY ON MARS
Government insider, Billionaire Akron Massey, has received a steady flow of funding over the past decade for his company, Starcast, to put a colony on Mars. Over the same period he’s been using his personal fortune to create a colony closer to home where he plans to ride out the coming storm along with a thousand of the smartest people on the planet. Humanity will need seeds to plant in the ashes after the chaos clears.

AND WARS IGNITE
When the true nature of the threat becomes known, the nations of Earth prepare to fight over all the warmest parts of the planet. But as war fleets set sail and armies begin marching south, a stunning discovery is made that will change a lot more than just the weather….

The Celestial Voyager was supposed to be a dream vacation—until a navigational error left the ship stranded in uncharted space. And then the bodies started appearing…

Cut off from Earth with no way home, disgraced fleet Captain Elias Mercer must find a habitable planet before supplies run out. The ship’s AI claims there’s one nearby—but after everything that’s happened, can it be trusted?

Security Chief Lars Dekker is sent to explore, only to uncover something terrifying waiting on the surface.

Meanwhile, Cruise Director Lexi Rourke clashes with the captain as she tries to keep her passengers entertained, and oblivious, for as long as she can.

Among the passengers:

  • Gavin Trent, a desperate family man hiding the collapse of his finances and his marriage.
  • Nico Virelli, a con man on the run looking for his next mark.
  • Zara Quinn, a retired cyborg assassin with unfinished business aboard.

As the grim reality of their situation comes to light, paranoia spreads, giving rise to a chilling theory: what if the ship didn’t get lost by accident? Someone might have planned this… but why? And what were they hoping to find?

Before anyone can begin to answer the question, they discover that someone—or something—on board is killing the passengers.

A chilling sci-fi mystery where paradise turns to panic, and survival means facing the secrets you brought with you.
