Mark Calder used to pull people out of burning buildings for a living. Now he’s a ghost in a chrome body, ten thousand light-years from New Orleans, about to address a hundred and forty-seven thousand human combat frames and ask them to kindly commit treason against the most powerful empire in the galaxy. No pressure. The Veylorian Republic built the perfect soldier: obedient, expendable, memory-wiped at the end of each tour. What they forgot to account for was one sardonic paramedic with a tactical AI who edits his speeches in real time, a rebel admiral with the emotional warmth of a ...

Firefly meets Battlestar Galactica in this massive 1,500-page military sci-fi boxset! One ship. One crew of glorious misfits. One empire that really, really wants them vaporized. Captain Xander Hawk thought he had seen the worst the galaxy could throw at him. Then the Malice Ascendant arrived: an Imperial nightmare-class dreadnought built for planetary annihilation, subtlety not included. When a rescue mission goes catastrophically sideways, Hawk and his crew are dragged into a war they never asked for, hunted by enemies on every side, and betrayed by the very powers they once served. Their...

What would you do if you found out the alien race you’ve been fighting for… is the one that wiped out your planet? Yeah. Mark didn’t take it well either. Now a consciousness trapped inside a war machine, Mark and his small, very angry group of friends are facing a minor inconvenience: A galactic empire controlling hundreds of worlds with unlimited resources and absolutely zero intention of letting humanity survive. The Veylorians thought Earth was a problem they had already solved, but they were wrong. Because Mark isn’t looking for justice; he’s looking for payback. And if saving...

The aliens didn't invade. They made an offer that humanity, desperate and starving, couldn’t refuse. Earth is dying. The crops are gone, the governments are mostly gone, and what's left of civilization is running on rationed hope and bad decisions. Then the Veylorians arrive with food, technology, and a contract. One hundred thousand human soldiers per year, to fight their wars across the galaxy. Mark Calder used to save lives for a living. He was a paramedic in New Orleans—bad coffee, impossible hours, patients who diagnosed themselves on WebMD and were wrong every single time. Now, ...

In the depths of the cosmos, the relentless Xortaag armada sweeps across the galaxy, leaving shattered worlds in its wake. Now, their sights are set on Earth. But in the face of annihilation, hope emerges from the most unlikely heroes: a starfighter pilot with a knack for quoting movies, a fearless stuntwoman, a deadly super-assassin, and a cunning cosmic spymaster. Their mission is not only to save humanity but to protect billions of intelligent beings across the multiverse.

Major Ethan Irons thought surviving Earth’s near-extinction was the worst thing that could happen to him. Then the alien fleet arrived. When the remnants of humanity are hurled into a galactic war they didn’t start, don’t understand, and are unprepared for, Ethan finds himself leading a desperate fight for survival among alien empires, ancient grudges, impossible odds, and enough political backstabbing to make Game of Thrones look like a polite family dinner. His assets? A battered fleet, a handful of stubborn survivors, several alien allies with deeply questionable motives, and a ...

Mark Calder’s day was already bad before the warship above him exploded. What was supposed to be a routine assignment—guard a shield generator, babysit an alien militia, try not to get killed—turns into a full-scale disaster when thirty humans in chrome combat frames find themselves stranded on a hostile world with no backup, no rescue, and roughly four thousand angry alien murder-lizards marching toward two million civilians. So, you know. Not ideal. Now Mark and his squad have one job: holding a collapsing defense line against an enemy that keeps finding new and exciting ways to ...

To save humanity, Earth sold its sons and daughters to an alien war machine. After a global collapse leaves humanity starving, Earth cuts a deal with a powerful alien empire: food, technology, and a chance to keep the species alive in exchange for one small detail—our soldiers now belong to them. Mark Calder used to be a paramedic in New Orleans. His old job involved saving lives, terrible coffee, and occasionally getting yelled at by people who thought WebMD made them doctors. His new job involves being dropped into an interstellar meat grinder where everything wants to kill him, half ...

The war for Earth is just the opening act. The Xortaag armada has never lost a war. Now their ships blot out Earth’s sky, and our last line of defense is four people who should absolutely not be in charge of saving the world: A movie-quoting pilot with a death wish. A stuntwoman who treats danger like a hobby. A silent assassin with a body count, not a personality. And a paranoid cosmic spymaster who trusts no one. Their fight starts in Earth’s orbit… then tears through wormholes, broken timelines, and clashing alternate universes. Every choice echoes across multiple Earths in the ...

The aliens offered food. The price was soldiers. With Earth collapsing and his daughter in need of treatment he cannot afford, paramedic Mark Calder does the unthinkable: he volunteers to fight in an alien war. Ripped from his world and sealed inside a deadly combat frame, Mark is sent to the front lines of a conflict where human troops are treated as expendable assets and survival is little more than a statistical error. Every battle is a slaughter. Every victory comes at a cost. And the more Mark sees of the war, the more he begins to suspect that humanity’s alien saviors are not ...

A galaxy-conquering alien armada… …has just knocked on Earth’s door, and it did not come bearing cookies. An unstoppable fleet is busy steamrolling its way across the cosmos, one planet at a time, and humanity is next on the menu. Standing between them and total universal doom is the least likely Avengers lineup ever assembled: a rule-breaking starfighter ace, a stuntwoman who treats gravity like a polite suggestion, a super-assassin with more ways to kill you than you have bones, and a wisecracking alien prankster who thinks reality is his personal toy box. Their job? Protecting not ...

A formidable alien armada stands on the brink of vanquishing the cosmos, their gaze set firmly on every inhabited world. The last line of defense? An eclectic crew of improbable champions: a maverick starfighter pilot, a daredevil stuntwoman, a lethal super-assassin, and a cosmic prankster with alien tricks up his sleeves. Their mission is to shield not just humanity, but billions of other intelligent lifeforms spanning the multiverse.

Saving the Multiverse Was Never Part of the Flight Plan. Major Jim Harrison was a simple Air Force pilot living a simple life. His biggest challenge wasn’t war, aliens, or the fate of humanity; it was figuring out how to stage the perfect Deadpool-style proposal for his fiancée, Liz. Then everything went spectacularly, catastrophically wrong. An alien invasion. Experimental technology that shouldn’t exist. Time loops that refuse to behave. Parallel universes where humanity already lost. Suddenly, Jim is thrown into a war that stretches across galaxies, timelines, and realities. And ...

They didn’t come to conquer. They came to erase. A vast alien armada is advancing across the galaxy, erasing entire civilizations without resistance. One system after another falls silent. There are no negotiations. No survivors. Humanity is next. Jim, a fighter pilot on the verge of a quiet life, is forced back into combat when a bloodied friend returns with impossible news. What begins as a single crisis quickly expands into something far larger: an alien invasion that stretches beyond one galaxy into many. As the scale of the war grows, so does the cost. Every decision carries ...

One ship. A crew of misfits. An empire that wants them vaporized. What could go wrong? Five Books. Over 2000 pages of pulse-pounding action, heart-wrenching drama, and enough snark to fuel a starship. Captain Xander Hawk sacrificed everything to rescue a doomed transport—his career, his freedom, and any chance of seeing his wife and daughter again. His reward? Life imprisonment in the galaxy's worst hellhole, where the only thing worse than the inmates is the food. But when a ragtag crew of misfits, con artists, and battle-scarred warriors break him out, Hawk discovers his sacrifice was ...

The galaxy picked the wrong species to provoke. Humanity was never meant to survive the war. We were outmatched, outnumbered, and technologically humiliated on a galactic scale. Our ships were slower. Our weapons were weaker. Our chances were statistically insulting. Any sensible species would have surrendered, adapted, or quietly gone extinct. Instead, we did what humans always do when backed into a corner. We got mean. Across the Voidwalker Chronicles and Renegades of the Void Series, humanity is dragged (sometimes willingly, often screaming) into wars that were never ours to begin with. ...

We didn’t join the stars. We were sold to them. When Earth collapses under hunger, war, and desperation, its leaders accept the only offer on the table: alien food and technology in exchange for human soldiers. Mark Calder was a paramedic in New Orleans. He knew trauma, blood loss, bad calls, and the special kind of stupidity that makes people say, “I looked it up online.” Then he wakes up inside a combat frame, a heavily armed war machine built to fight battles no human body could survive. The aliens call it an opportunity. Mark has other words for it. Most of them would get flagged ...

Three heroes. Three wars. And every time they make a call, it’s not “do we win this battle?” — it’s “does the galaxy get to exist tomorrow?” A starship captain who refuses to run when the void starts staring back. A hardened marine forged in invasions where survival is optional. An ace fighter pilot who lives at the edge of impossible odds and pushes past it anyway. From The Voidwalker Chronicles, The Crimson Deathbringer, and Renegades of the Void, three epic universes collide in a collection packed with brutal space battles, ancient alien threats, and decisions that don’t ...
