A frontier world. One Sheriff. And all the action one spaceport can't hold. Darklanding is the wild west of known space. Sheriff Thaddeus Fry‘s assignment as the Sheriff of Darklanding, could be a do-nothing job, or it could get him killed.

Retired Marine and survivalist Chuck Nagy, his brilliant and brave wife, Madison, and his remarkable children are thrown from the modern world into a dystopian wasteland in the span of a few heartbeats. Now, it’s up to Chuck to build a new life in a post-apocalyptic world that becomes more dangerous every day. This is an omnibus edition of the three titles in Craig Martelle's End Times Alaska series.

Rick Banik is a new patriot for a new age. He leads a Joint Intelligence Tiger Team in pursuit of a terrorist plotting an attack on Washington DC. Da'esh's agent stays one step ahead by hiding in plain sight, always there, but never being seen.

The Pearl. A smooth round ball of a planet with an ocean hiding a secret. The water is near boiling, and the Jemmin don’t want the Vorr or the Terrans to find what’s hidden in the depths. What would make it worth it for the Jemmin to commit overwhelming forces to this out-of-the-way system? And they aren’t the only ones bringing max firepower to the game. The Metal Legion gears up for what they expect to be a pitched battle against a determined defense.

The preliminaries are out of the way. The real fight begins. The Malibor are putting up staunch resistance, fighting as if their lives depend on it. Which they do and they don’t. The Borwyn aren’t using a scorched earth approach. They’re not destroying everything in their path. They’re willing to live in peace with the Malibor. Which is something the Malibor have no interest in. Victory or death! They will defeat the Borwyn, or they will die trying.

The end is in sight. The Borwyn dig deep into their reserves. In space. On the ground. Different environments. The same engagement. One final battle to determine who will survive to lead Septimus. Jaq, Crip, Max, Deena, Brad, Bec, Teo, and the rest of the team giving everything they have, bending the fabric of the universe to their wills to overcome the ultimate weapon the Malibor deploy.

Ian Bragg remembered his first hit when he had little experience. He didn’t wish that on others. It would expose them. It would put the Peace Archive at risk. In the outskirts of Atlanta, Ian and Jenny bring together a select group of operators, loyal and dedicated, to train on a live contract. Winner takes home the big prize – a million dollars, tax-free. The others get a payout based on the ingenuity of their engagement because the Peace Archive won’t tolerate losers. They drive everyone to be better than they were the day before. In the real world, every contract is a challenge.

Magistrate Rivka Anoa and her team are ordered to get to the bottom of what's plaguing businesses across the Federation. Getting supplies and turning those into a product that can be sold is the foundation of every business. When those basics devolve, it throws the system into disarray. A new mob with a new life, sending legitimate businesses into turmoil. Or is it? Rivka has to get to the bottom of it and quickly.

Can you succeed yourself by downloading your consciousness? Will your family let you? Hidden micro-blasters, paper-thin blades, plasma torches, and surges in voltage come into play as the jockeying begins for the vast estate of the honorable J. Bennet Johnstone. Is a downloaded consciousness eligible to be a citizen of the Singularity? Erasmus goes on a mission without Ankh. Will their worlds end, one without the other? Rivka tossed into the middle of deceit and selfishness. Even seeing into their minds cannot unravel the sordid truth.

The arrogance of success. The criminality of using it to crush people under one's thumb. A license to destroy. More than a single life, entire cultures replaced. For a few credits more. Find the crime! Rivka can't touch him or can she? Will he allow it? In this part of space, he calls the shots. The Federation is on the outside looking in. From the frontier, a single business starts to take over. Not a crime family, like Nefas, but a single individual forcing people to sell their souls. Unlimited power. Like Satan has returned and demanded payment.

Die Vestrall schlagen zurück, aber die Leviathan stellt sich ihnen in den Weg. Derweil eröffnet Major Payne eröffnet eine neue Front in diesem Krieg. Sein Ziel ist nichts Geringeres, als die Verbündeten der Vestrall gegen sie aufzubringen, um der Galaxie endlich Frieden zu bringen. Doch die Vestrall haben Geheimnisse. Der Krieg wird weitergehen, weil es das ist, was ihren Plänen am meisten dient. Um ihn zu durchkreuzen, muss sich die Menschheit endlich ihrem wahren Feind stellen.

Ian and Jenny Bragg are called to a meeting by those who are paid to deliver justice. Some call them assassins. Others call them hitmen. Ian knows them as operators. Market share is about taking business from others. A zero sum game. The Peace Archive is growing, and it’s making the wrong people uncomfortable.

Dismantling the Blood Trade wasn't the end, but the beginning. Everything the Magistrates do has been called into question. Do they have probable cause? Are they respecting a suspect's right against self-incrimination? The ambassadors have questions, and they think they know the answers, but only the Magistrates know the truth. Called before the Federation Council, the collective body for discussing matters that affect all member planets, Magistrate Rivka Anoa is put under the spotlight to answer for all she had done.

Kill or be killed. Take the fight to the enemy, only until you can't. Then repair, regroup, rearm, and return to the fight. Unless the enemy shows up before you're ready. Then you get ready. There are no do-overs in war. While the battle rages in space, the Borwyn decide to put boots on the ground in a daring, risk-all return to Septimus. The combat team is tasked to disrupt strategic communications. Is it even possible?

Ian and Jenny Bragg are contracted by the highest levels of the government. They can share none of the secrets they learn. They have to do the job alone. The contracted value is enough that they'll never have to work again, but that's not Ian's plan. Ian and Jenny are taking care of a small army of employees. From The Club to their independent operators.

A crime against all—stealing one's life blood. It prolongs life! It gives strength and power. Such exotic luxuries come at a high price. Those who have been drained? "Donors" but not quite volunteers. That's why they're kidnapped, never to be heard from again. Taken from their families and removed from existence. Who would do such a thing? Do the ones paying for this blood know where it comes from?

A serial killer the likes of whom hasn't been seen in centuries. A pretender who has outdone the master. Fifty planets. The dead are screaming for vengeance and only Rivka and her team can hear their cries. The Singularity. The Magistrate and her crew. How many more must die before the killer can be brought to justice? The battle of wits has begun, and only one can survive. Win or die trying. Rivka has to dig deeper than ever before into her investigative skills to figure out who's next and how to stop the one masquerading as . . . Jack the Ripper.

Die Leviathan steht allein gegen zahlreiche Gegner in einem tausendjährigen Krieg. Die Vestrall haben die uralte Zivilisation der Progenitoren aus der Galaxis vertrieben und nun sind sie drauf und dran, auch die Menschheit in die Knie zu zwingen. Doch das uralte Schlachtschiff unter dem Kommando von Declan Payne gibt sich nicht geschlagen und gemeinsam beginnen sie eine Suche nach den Herrschern des Blaze-Kollektivs. Die führt sie tausend Lichtjahre hinter die feindlichen Linien zur ehemaligen Heimat der mysteriösen Aliens. Werden sie die Spuren finden, nach denen sie suchen, um den Feind aufspüren und vernichten zu können?

Das uralte Schlachtschiff Leviathan ist längst in Vergessenheit geraten, als Major Declan Payne mit seinem Team an Bord geschickt wird, um es zu reaktivieren. Das Blaze-Kollektiv, ein Zusammenschluss feindseliger Alienspezies, bedroht den Fortbestand der Menschheit, und der Major soll herausfinden, ob eine der mächtigsten Waffen aus der kriegerischen Vergangenheit einer früheren Zivilisation noch funktioniert.
