That desperate plea pulled Captain Jason Burke and Omega Force down the rabbit hole into the lawless underworld of the Orion Region, hunting a lethal new syndicate that’s carving through the criminal empires with ease. With the crew cut off from allies and every move watched, Jason and his team must expose the endgame before the entire sector explodes—without putting their friends squarely in the crosshairs. Omega Force is on its own. Backs against the wall. And that’s exactly when they’re the most dangerous.

Cargo hauler Dalton Thorne has survived reality-altering blood rituals, interdimensional monsters, and an unending series of crime lords and megalomaniacs who want him dead. He's merged fragments of Earth, defied the Consortium, and earned a title he never wanted: the Kagi—humanity's cosmic wildcard... and potentially its last hope. But none of that matters to Dalton while his crew is gone.

The Republic has fractured. Entire planetary systems have declared their independence from a government that can no longer rule over them in good faith—or protect them from the dangers in the dark. Total chaos befalls planet after planet, as new orders emerge and old scores are settled. One...

Alexander Hawkes built the Galactic Knights Uniformed to be different. Not mercenaries. Not enforcers. Peacekeepers. But ideals don't pay the bills. Now the Charter Directorate speaks a new language—one of revenue targets and moral flexibility. While Alexander patrols shopping malls, the galaxy's ugliest truths fester in the shadows. The Nacendo are being herded onto transports like cattle. Planets are harvested for profit. And entire ecosystems are poisoned for mineral rights.

Drake and Yukiko have made the journey to the capital of the Jontihem Nation to defend their actions and find ways to secure their rights, but the government is filled with inertia and paper pushers that look down on new things and seek to make complications vanish into an endless pile of papers that no one will ever read.

When Thomas Matheson moves his family into their new suburban home, he's hoping for a fresh start, a chance to reconnect with his teenage children, and an opportunity to leave the pressures of his old life behind. But when strange things start happening around the house, Thomas discovers something hidden in the basement: a starship, buried beneath their home for years. Before they can process what they've found, the ship's AI activates, and the Matheson family is scattered across the galaxy.

He'd been a Guild Peacemaker, once. But he lost his badge, his family, even his home, to a few bad decisions. Now he works as muscle for one of the planet's more wretched crime lords. Even at rock bottom, Gaelin still believes in honor and protecting the innocent. But in those low circles, being a man of integrity just means absorbing more lumps than he dishes out. A mysterious figure from his past appears out of the shadows. The Peacemaker Guild that once cast him down now needs his help. But help with what?

Evan Marshall is a billion light years from home, trapped aboard a disabled starship, with two of the galaxy’s most legendary warships closing in. He can’t outrun them. He can’t fight them. And there’s nowhere left to hide. Only one desperate move remains. To save his crew and keep the Ascendant out of enemy hands…Evan has to die.

Hoping to upgrade their capabilities on a shoestring budget, Brainship Tia and her Brawn Alex accept a contract to test a prototype singularity drive from the military. There’s a catch, of course: the drive “might” occasionally commit a starship to “random” jumps. With some trepidation and the new drive installed, the pair resume their courier duties. The drive works flawlessly, at first. Just as they start to relax, the drive places them in orbit around a partially abandoned research site. Partially, because the corporation that set it up abandoned the researchers there.

Cam Alvarez und Vicky Sandoval haben den abtrünnigen Tahni Colonel Zan-Thint bis in sein Versteck bei den gesetzlosen Kartellen der Piratenwelten verfolgt. Auf einem Planeten mit endlosen Ozeanen und ständiger vulkanischer Aktivität kommt Zan-Thint der Entschlüsselung der Geheimnisse der uralten außerirdischen Waffen, die er entdeckt hat, immer näher.

Seit er sich Omega Force angeschlossen hat, lebt Kapitän Jason Burke mit der tiefen Angst, dass eines Tages die Erde entdeckt werden könnte. Sein Wunsch, die Existenz und den Ort der Erde geheim zu halten, hat ihn zu Extremen getrieben und ihn lange Zeit von seiner Heimatwelt ferngehalten. Aber jetzt wird Jasons größte Angst wahr, und eine Flotte außerirdischer Schiffe hat seinen Planeten angegriffen. Omega Force eilt zur Verteidigung der Erde, aber die Schiffe sind wie keine, denen sie jemals begegnet sind, und sie setzen Waffen ein, für die sie keine Verteidigung haben.

Das Ziel ist erreicht: Die Majestätische Dracht tritt in das System des Weißen Zwergs Wolf 489 ein – von den Grosnopfen ehrfürchtig Dreizack genannt. An Bord klammert sich das Allwissen an die Hoffnung, hier endlich Spuren der rätselhaften Erbauer zu finden und vielleicht sogar ein Heilmittel gegen die Seuche, die Adam, Ragnor und Dutzende weitere im Kälteschlaf gefangen hält. Doch die Realität ist trostlos.

Die Rebellion hat begonnen, doch Jace Hawthorne und die Crew der Revenant müssen schmerzhaft erfahren, dass Freiheit einen blutigen Preis fordert. Um die Aufgehende Morgenröte am Leben zu erhalten, beginnt ein verzweifeltes Rennen gegen die Zeit: Sie müssen die verlorene Technologie der Eldra'kaarn bergen – bevor ihre Feinde sie zuerst in die Finger bekommen. Jede neue Spur führt Jace tiefer in einen Schattenkrieg aus Spionen, Schmugglern und außerirdischen Fraktionen, die nur darauf warten, den Überlebenskampf der Menschheit für ihre eigenen Zwecke auszunutzen.

With those fateful words, Bladerunner’s captain placed herself and her crew in the hands of providence.

Shortly after their arrival, William Thorne implores Captain Omandi to deviate from the Compass’ path.

Geddy's final mission is here: Save the universe or watch it burn. The Alliance dangles by its fingertips over the abyss of oblivion as the Zelnads rev up for their grand finale of destruction. Outgunned, outmaneuvered, and probably out of witty comebacks, our heroes embark on a suicide mission...

NO GOOD DEED GOES UNPUNISHED. That's the one thing Brace Cordova is convinced of when he's released from a five year stretch in a military prison. He figures the best he can do is spend the rest of his days as a freighter pilot and vicariously live out his dream of a Commonwealth Fleet career through his cousin, Commander Letessa Cordova.

When Kaid Sidorov is sent to extract a scientist from a newly annexed world, he expects another covert retrieval under pressure. Instead, Tavanda Ruun leads his crew to evidence of first contact: a surviving alien intelligence hidden inside the remains of a civilization humanity was never meant to find.
