Bryan Norton was a loner with a love for shooting, and the vast Arizona desert at his disposal to cater to that passion. A former Marine Captain, he was the beneficiary of an early medical retirement due to a blown knee and now had three hundred and sixty five days of vacation a year, use it or lose it. A chance encounter with a stranger on a desert outing was about to change his life. 

Life aboard Independence was proving very interesting for Bryan Norton, human in exile. With his youthful body returned to him via the magic of the Molecular Reconstruction Transformer, or MRT as it is commonly called, he was experiencing a second life. It is a new chance at something far more interesting and challenging than his first time around in life.

Continue to follow the adventures of USMC Captain Jacob Thomas as he emerges from a failed DARPA experiment hundreds of years in the future and under the guidance of an artificial life form that has its own agenda.

Colonel Jake Thomas has found himself at the edge of disaster once more and managed to pull back from the brink. Defeating the alien armada without the use of a re-created doomsday device was a great victory. However, it was a victory tainted by the realization that a new NeHaw leadership was in place, and they knew how to fight a war in space. He was once again fighting a two-front war, one in space and one on the home front.

Captain Jacob Thomas, USMC, is a divorced combat veteran just trying to get his life back on track. Returning to the marine corps after a failed attempt at reconciliation with his estranged wife, Jake volunteers for a DARPA experiment that catapults him into a future where humanity has been stripped of 200 years of technological advancements and more than half its population. With the help of a faceless benefactor named Alice, he escapes the confines of an abandoned lab facility.

Major Jake Thomas is on a roll. With the help of the Artificial Life: Intelligent Computing Environments, or ALICE, systems, he has successfully faced off with the hostile NeHaw three times. With continued support from his inner circle of female recruits, all handpicked by the ALICEs to further their own agenda, he continues to try to help Earth return to glory.

By the middle of the twenty-first century, the major powers on Earth had fallen into a second Cold War centralized in cyberspace. The US has made considerable strides in artificial intelligence by introducing the first ALICE system to the world. In an effort to catch up, China and Russia pooled their total AI resources, hoping their combined technologies would meet or exceed the American systems.

The disappearance of a routine patrol has the humans scrambling for answers as they investigate the possibility of a new Phaser weapon. Research back on Earth uncovers a technology native to the inhabitants of Reaper's World that has far-reaching implications for the future of all Artificial Lifeforms on Earth and in space. Finally, to add to all General Jake Thomas has on his plate, a fundamental change in his relationship with ALICE could land his personal life on its ear and upset a decade of stability all in one swoop.

With the invading aliens temporarily driven from Human-and-NeHaw-occupied space, all the races are using the pause to recover and rebuild, both friend and foe alike. For the NeHaw, that means pressuring the Earth to allow them to rebuild and rearm their fleet from the Wawobash shipyards, a risk that could easily backfire. For Jake, the lingering concerns of a lost crew with the un-activated Artificial Life installed in the captured saucer still dominate his thoughts. 

It's been more than 10 years since the war with the NeHaw ended in an uneasy truce. During that time, Jake Thomas has been relegated from battlefield commander and chief to the role of interstellar bureaucrat. To add to his frustrations, he is now father to a passel of teens and preteens, all with their father's propensity for getting into trouble. However, unexplained violations around the Human/NeHaw Neutral Zone and the mysterious disappearances of people in a remote backwater town in Arizona has everyone, Human and NeHaw alike, pointing fingers and threatening war.  

In a world where dwindling populations consolidate their inhabitants into isolated city states, life is divided into the Haves and Have Nots. In one such city, Detectives Ethan Walls and Rachel Edmunds do their best to provide those outside the coveted City Core with the same justice enjoyed by those called the City's Elite. For the Have Nots, that justice was hard to find. Suddenly, young women began disappearing off the same streets the pair of detectives had sworn to protect, a growing trend that points an ugly finger at the City Core.
