After fighting a demon, surviving a life-or-death trial, and taking care of a psycho out to crown himself emperor, Eli was really hoping for a peaceful trip on a skyship to Galdish with his friends and allies. Unfortunately, powerful forces are converging around him, making his journey far more perilous as the supposed "gods" continue to meddle with the world of Lurra.

Just when Captain Galvin Quintos was about to lay his beach towel down next to the lovely bikini-clad Gail Pristy, there on Monaco's sun-drenched Côte d'Azur—having earned his retirement—a terrifying new threat emerges from the depths of space. A mysterious alien race known as the Hydrosapiens has been systematically draining ocean worlds across the galaxy… and, apparently, Earth is next on the list.

The Association has finally become aware of Eli's presence in the sequestered world of Lurra, with one of his recently resurrected enemies tasked by Lady Peja to hunt him down. At the same time, the Remnant's invasion of the Pantheon Alliance continues while the temple families and others in Galdish scheme to send Eli beyond life's veil to answer for his blasphemous crimes.

Eli’s had a rough month, waking up in some strange world only to face cultists, bandits, and a 3-meter-tall demon. Now, he finds himself in a mysterious contest against other non-human practitioners in a fight to the death. To make matters worse, some psycho back on Lurra is setting himself up as a claimant to an extinct empire bent on enslaving the world with his monstrous powers.

The Confederated Nations of Earth and the Lunar Free State have fought each other for decades in the Sol system and out among the stars. They’ve never had an open declaration of war, but there have been battles in space at Odin, Sacagawea, and Rothstein’s star. Lunar Marines have clashed with Confed Peacekeepers on Ragnarok and Xanadu. When the British battlecruiser Prince of Wales suddenly shows up at Ragnarok, the LFS and CNE realize there’s a new player in the game.

Eli continues his adventures in Lurra, lost once again after Fluxi's gateway dropped him in the middle of some unknown settlement, far from his friends. At the same time, the Association has begun to step out from the shadows, revealing their horrifying intentions for this world as they manipulate the Remnant's forces into launching a fresh invasion on the Pantheon Alliance.

It’s been ten years since the Lunar Free State established itself on Earth’s moon. Since then, other Earth nations have pushed into space, but - thanks to the advantages provided by its gravity-driven spacecraft - the LFS has continued to prosper. When the research ship LFS Stephen Hawking encounters an alien probe near Saturn, though, the craft leads Hawking on a chase before vanishing into hyperspace. Now the Lunar Free State must face two facts: The humans of Earth are not the only intelligent life in the universe, and travel to other star systems is possible.

Eli wakes up far from Earth and is promptly thrown into the magical prison world of Lurra, with superpowered humans who don’t even know they’re inmates. If that wasn’t bad enough, the experimental implant in his head is malfunctioning, causing all sorts of problems, and the closest neurosurgeons might as well be a universe away. Thankfully, Eli has some new powers of his own, which he’ll need to defeat the many psychos, assassins, and monsters crossing his path.

On-the-job training can be hazardous to your health...Lorna Greenwood hopes the Lunar Free State’s Fleet Academy will prepare her to follow in her grandmother’s legendary footsteps. Her roommate Nova Sakura has already spent time in the LFS Marines and wants to move up to the officer ranks. First, though, they have to survive four years of training. Military service gets real for Lorna when the assault carrier Omaha Beach comes under fire during her first year training cruise.

When the Krygians, a soulless insectile alien race, attack a Floritineian goodwill convoy, annihilating their fleet and stealing the precious cargo, the U.S. Space Navy reaches out to the one person who can do the impossible: Captain Galvin Quintos. Tasked with the covert 'Quansport Ops' mission aboard USS Ike, a far smaller Corvette-class warship than he’s used to, Quintos must navigate treacherous alliances and cutting-edge tech to reclaim a warship that cannot be allowed to be in enemy hands—Oblivion.

In the dying embers of an interstellar war, newly appointed Fleet Commander Galvin Quintos stands as humanity's last hope, staring down the maw of oblivion. Entrusted with the technological marvel, Omninought-Class warship, USS Washington, Quintos embarks on a campaign to engage the merciless Grish Empire's three formidable armadas—Prowess, Torrent, and Pinnacle.

Captain Galvin Quintos thought he'd seen it all, but nothing could have prepared him for the catastrophe that befalls USS Roosevelt. In the blink of an eye, the mighty omninought is reduced to a fractured hulk, leaving Quintos and his surviving crew stranded aboard little more than space wreckage Quintos re-christens, USS Resilience.

The alien race Akara have a secret; they've discovered the location of a planet that is home to a primitive human civilization, another ancient “seeding" of the legendary Progenitors. But, this planet lies in the territory of the Otuka, spacefaring alien predators who consider human flesh to be a delicacy and the planet to be their private hunting preserve. Unwilling to confront the Otuka, the Akara have passed the problem on to their human allies, the Lunar Free State. Now, the LFS needs to decide what to do about it.

Ian Stevens, director of the Deep Space Research Institute, isn’t interested in conducting research just for the sake of research. While the rest of the world - including the US Government - thinks that’s the DSRI’s sole mission, Stevens is actually interested in more - he wants manned space travel and the colonization of the moon. With NASA defunct, few scientific probes are being launched, and no one even talks about human spaceflight anymore. Stevens is out to change that.

Skyscraper developer Quincy Witherman has continued his family's 200-year practice of hiding assets in Switzerland. Now, needing protection from his creditors, he hires Kansas City bankruptcy lawyer Josephina Jillian Jones – 3J – but fails to disclose the Swiss assets to 3J, his bankers, the IRS, and the bankruptcy court...all felonies. 3J knows in her gut that something is wrong. So does Witherman's banker, Stacy Milnes. Will anyone catch him?

What do you do when one of your deep space survey ships discovers a fertile, Earth-like planet that isn’t currently occupied by humans or any other intelligent species? If you’re the Lunar Free State, you make plans to put a colony there—and try to keep it secret so the Confederated Nations of Earth don’t do the same. Unfortunately, though, the secret gets out, and the CNE scrambles to launch their own colony project, starting a race by both nations to make their claim to the planet.

“War” is a dirty word on Ragnarok. For the past hundred years, the planet’s human inhabitants have been trying to rebuild their civilization after a self-inflicted nuclear holocaust. The event—which they call the “Great Destruction”—was so traumatic they’ve destroyed all the records and refuse to talk about it, other than to swear it will never ever happen again. At least, that’s what they tell the Lunar Free State’s contact team.

Lorna Greenwood is back, and she’s been given a new command. Well, maybe “new” isn’t the right word. LFS Werewolf is one of the oldest ships in the Lunar Fleet. She’s been rebuilt many times during her 70 years in service, even though she’s not as fast or as heavily armed as Fleet’s more modern light cruisers. Nonetheless, Lorna is proud of her and is determined to whip her green crew into shape for the mission ahead.

After years of planning, the Lunar Free State is going to war, on a crusade to liberate the people of Tatanna from the evil Bugs. For Lorna Greenwood, this will be a trial by fire—her first mission with her own command, the Predator-class destroyer LFS Lynx. She’s looking to get some payback for her last trip there eight years ago, which didn’t end well.
