Book excerpt: Book #7 in the popular Carrera military science fiction series. Carrera's held off his enemies coming by sea from the north, in the process dealing the naval and amphibious forces of the Zhong Empire a stinging defeat. The Zhong won't soon forget the blood-stained waters and the heaped up bodies on the shores of Balboa's Isla Real. Now, though, his adopted country of Balboa is under assault from the east, from the south, from the west, from the air, and from space. The Zhong, smarting from the butchery around the island, have bounced back and forced a lodgment east of the capital. Their lodgment is still a-building but when it is done Carrera can expect several hundred thousand brave and determined Zhong to show up on his barely defended flank. The Taurans, remembering their military roots, have assaulted Balboa from the south, taking half the area of, and cutting, the Transitway that joins Terra Nova's Mar Fusioso and her Shimmering Sea. In the process, they've cut off and besieged the second city of the country, Cristobal, trapping inside the city Carrera's Fourth Corps, and overrunning and capturing a large portion of Carrera's artillery train. West of Cristobal, the Taurans have created, almost from scratch, a series of small ports and airfields to support their siege. Inside the town, a sense of desperation is growing among the men and women of the Fourth Corps: Has their leader forgotten about or abandoned them? Meanwhile another Tauran Expeditionary force secures Balboa's eastern neighbor, Santa Josefina, as a base against them. In space, the United Earth Peace Fleet, under the Command of High Admiral Marguerite Wallenstein, keeps as low a profile as possible, all the time spying and feeding intelligence to both Zhong and Tauran. It's beginning to look like the game is up for Balboa and Patricio Carrera. But Carrera's been planning this war for fifteen years. He certainly hopes his enemies think they're winning.

Giant electrovoric ants and pterodons came through a rift in space-time, millions of humans died, and that was that.Human ingenuity has provided some creative workarounds to life without electricity and with giant homicidal ants, but most people merely get by at subsistence level. For Chuck Gibson, the simple life of a rancher was enough.

Book excerpt: Orbital Strike Command: They are Elite, Deadly, Loyal. But to the many who live under the Gnostic Empire, Oskies are better known as one thing. Monsters. ◆◆◆ Lt. Adrianna Riley was a good soldier, but she found life in the Navy's elite fighting force to be less heroic than she had dreamed of as a child. Her noble wish to slay the monsters no one else could, to rescue people from their war-torn homes, led her to volunteer for a lifetime of service. Not to a country or to a flag, but simply to defend the people who can't defend themselves. She never dreamed she'd become the monster everyone was afraid of. Her commanders gave her cybernetic augments, grafted motors to her bones and steel to her muscles. And they gave her one mandate: kill the enemies of the Empire wherever they hide. But an Empire's greatest weapon is not a soldier or a bomb—it's information. And when bad intelligence leaves Adrianna's strike team trapped behind enemy lines, she will have to use every tool of her trade to keep them alive. Even if it means becoming the monster that she swore she'd kill... The 1st Chapter of a New Trilogy in the Capital-verse begins with this super-soldier action/adventure.

Book excerpt: Books #6 in the popular Carrera military science fiction series. Tarawa. Iwo. Normandy. Names that shine in the military history of two worlds, places where brave men stormed ashore and fought their way to victory no matter the odds. But then there are other names: Marathon. Malta. Gallipoli. Balboa’s Patricio Carrera has driven the Tauran Union from his adopted country, driven them out with appalling loss and worse humiliation. That’s not enough though. To finally finish his enemies, Carrera needs to draw them back for a more telling defeat. He cannot take the battle to them because, beyond some long range bombardment capability, he cannot reach them. But when they return, they don’t plan to come alone; they insist on having someone else do most of the bleeding for them. Carrera understands this. And that’s why he’s provoked the Zhong Guo mercilessly, infuriating their ruling Empress. He needs the Zhong in the war, to buck up the Taurans to continue the war to its bitterest end and not unending stalemate. But to get to Carrera, the Zhong must take the Isla Real, the strongest island fortress on two worlds. In the process, they’ll learn why Marines never forget those other names. . . . Gallipoli…Malta…Marathon. Carrera’s enemies are about to learn why the expression "blood-stained water" is not just a literary allusion.

Book excerpt: Jonny Ricochet hadn’t even had the decency of a decent night's sleep before the sergeant had them all up and standing to attention. The barracks lights snapped on like a sudden ambush, followed by the bellow of the man who seemed more myth than flesh. “Feet on the deck! You’re burning daylight, and there's no time to waste in my Corps!” Ricochet's body jolted to consciousness, muscle memory from the last four days hauling him out of his bunk. He stood at attention, eyes fixed forward, heart racing the morning run already. Around him, the rest of the fresh meat were a symphony of groans and clattering boots, but they all knew the drill; the sergeant’s voice didn’t carry suggestions. “Eyes front, Ricochet,” the sergeant growled, his gaze a piercing drill. “You signed up to fight, not to sleep.” “Yes, Sergeant!” The words shot out of Ricochet’s mouth, crisp and automatic.
