Betrayed from within by a rogue Synthetic Intelligence, the alliance has been fractured and is on the run. The Sontags have retreated to defend their homeworld, the Kardonians have lost theirs, and a Legastian fleet advances on Earth, with little to stop it but a couple untested airwings. Meanwhile, two enemy cruisers continue to chase Lance Baker. Sent by the Legastian queen, they won’t stop until he’s been destroyed.

Kainos is not the planet Exodus Ark colonists thought it would be. It is inhabited by the Volcuri, a once-thriving race that fell victim to the First and now fights for its very survival.

Kent and his team must return to the surface and embark on a new mission: Find a way to defeat the Turned, and stop the First from taking them all prisoner as mind-controlled slaves.

With war afoot, James Sutton and Will Johnson are tasked with chasing down the Cowlee stealth ship that has the coordinates to Earth.

But when it doesn’t go as planned, she’ll be lucky to escape the swamps with her life.

The recon by fire mission seemed like a good idea, but things immediately went sideways when the Terran fleet attacked the picket cruiser waiting for them in the first system. The advance then stalled completely when their returning fighters were captured by the Cowlees. Forced to focus on the Shirgan system rather than continuing on toward the Cowlee homeworld of Gsstow, the Terran fleet—barely—survived a string of pyrrhic victories as it sought to enforce its will.

When a ruthless crime syndicate takes over a declining neighborhood on Razik-doom, Lieutenant Benjamin “Breaker” Wrath is sent to lead a multi-jurisdictional task force.

Extortion, kidnapping, and murder are the intergalactic languages of lawless bullies, and Breaker knows exactly how far he’ll go to protect the innocent.

The allies could sneak a fleet behind enemy lines and destroy the infrastructure the Overlords were using to push them to the brink of existence. As long as the allied fleet didn’t get trapped and obliterated, everything would be great. But they got trapped and obliterated.

But the Legastians don’t know fear, and they were already beating the Overlords. Will the addition of the AIs help or hinder the alliance? The fighting at Surrapsis has shown the Legastians are willing to do whatever it takes—including kamikaze attacks—when necessary to win a battle. And, with only a little head start, they can quickly get a toehold on a planet that is both hard and costly to eradicate.

Murph and Jack are on the hunt for the biggest prize of them all: the Fifth Gate. But what exactly is it? And what will they do when they find it? Jack thinks he knows the answer, but what they find might not be what they expect. To make matters worse, someone else is on the hunt. And not just anyone, but another Orphan, and a powerful one at that. With his team by his side, Murph saddles up and prepares for a fight he won't soon forget.

Als sich die größten Krieger von Tyton versammeln, um die verlorene Heimatwelt Zal-tytos zu befreien, müssen Noah und Kayans Mannschaft Wunden heilen, die Jahrtausende alt sind.

The Sutton siblings have pulled off the unthinkable—they defeated a Cowlee force led by one of the princes and returned with more forces than Terra previously had at its disposal.

With very little to lose and everything to gain, the general authorizes their plan, hoping to gain an edge they desperately need over the alien Cowlees.

Through skill, determination, and a good bit of luck, the allies were able to turn away the Overlord attack. Not only were they able to hold them off, but several of the enemy vessels have also been added to their fleet.

Während sich sein Co-Kapitän noch von seinen Verletzungen erholt und die Star Treader in seiner Abwesenheit einen Kommandanten braucht, bricht Cole allein in das besetzte anypsianische Kriegsschiff ein.
