From a young age, he's been forced to raise himself and his beloved sister. Anthony's isolated parents also expect him to take over the family business once he was old enough. As an act of defiance, he joins the Unified Coalition Space Operations Army in a desperate attempt to secure an independent life for both himself and his sister, away from the stubborn control of his parents. While training to become an army trooper, Anthony uses his strong sense of independence to quickly adapt to the harsh demands of military life. With Insurrectionist forces threatening all the Coalition holds dear, Anthony is sent to the stars to fight against the same enemy responsible for bombing his home city. But after his first deployment reveals that the Insurrectionists are only a small part of a much larger plot, Anthony and his fellow soldiers are thrust into the largest interstellar war in history seemingly overnight. With the Coalition in chaos, Anthony must not only keep his promise to return to his sister but also fulfill his oath to defend the Coalition, her colonies, and her citizens.

Crusade: Neither side in the Human-Orion war was strong enough to defeat the other, so it fizzled into an uneasy peace filled with hatred and mistrust on both sides. Then a ship appeared from the dim mists of half-forgotten history, and fired on the Orion sentry ship, igniting the fires of interstellar war anew, in a quest to free Holy Mother Terra. In Death Ground: The human race and two other star traveling races had warred with each other in the past, but now all three are at peace-a peace which is shattered by the discovery of a fourth race, the "Bugs." The newcomers are mind-numbingly alien in their thought processes, have overwhelming numbers, and regard all other species as fit only to be food animals. There is no hope for peace with the invaders, and the galaxy explodes with a battle to the death. Kill-or be eaten!

With little choice, humanity and a Chzek vassal race are made proxies of their more advanced benefactors and fight Earth's first interstellar war.

The first crude human starship has made the first trip to a neighboring star.This achievement has answered two questions since humanity came to realize that the lights in the sky are stars: Is faster-than-light travel possible, and are we alone?Yes and no!Admiral Jacks forbids the release of the answer to that second question until they have time to think about the implications of the signals they detected and prepare for a return trip to find the source of those signals. There exists an underlying resentment and belief among some religious groups that humanity is treading where God has not given us permission to go just by leaving our planet. That belief causes violence already. Knowing that we may have attracted something's attention might push that violence over the edge into war. Or . . . would it bring us together? Careful what you wish for.
