Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Milton Frederick was arguably the best player of Crowned Lieges of Destiny in the entire world. As the strategy coordinator for one of the top guilds, he was beginning to actually make a living from it. That was, until he was abducted by aliens.Instead of your stereotypical grey aliens with big black eyes who like to perform anal probes upon unsuspecting victims for unknown reasons, The Collective had a more altruistic purpose. Sure, kidnapping 100 humans from Earth, ripping them away from their lives and families, and erasing their memories doesn't sound great - but the way they saw it, the benefits would far outweigh these side-effects. Seriously, who wouldn't want their consciousness trapped in a Station Core, subjected to the whims of a collection of alien races, and then ordered to defend against other hostile aliens for all eternity? They'd be immortal - so...bonus!Fortunately (or unfortunately, depending on how you look at it), the Station Core now known as Milton never arrived at his destination. Severely damaged and confused about what happened to him, he woke up to find himself trapped inside a massive chicken egg on a strange, primitive world filled with curious - and deadly - creatures.Now, in order to survive the harsh environment, Milton has to rely on a snarky, foul-mouthed AI guide to show him what it means to be a Station Core. With her help, he might just live long enough to figure out a way to get off the planet - if only he wasn't so afraid of squirrels...Contains LitRPG/GameLit elements such as level progression and experience, optional tables, no harems, and a heavy Dungeon Core emphasis.Updated 4/26/19: New cover, additional editing, less foul language

Book excerpt: Contains all five books in the Station Cores series:The Station Core - Book 1 The Quizard Mountains - Book 2 The Guardian Guild - Book 3 The Kingdom Rises - Book 4 The Other Core - Book 5 In addition, there are some BONUSES: Hand-drawn maps (admittedly done by me without much artistic talent) that I used to help me write the series A fun 12k-word short story that combines the Dungeon World and Station Cores universes. Milton Frederick was originally abducted from his apartment to help defend one batch of pacifistic aliens called The Collective against another set of homicidal aliens called Heliothropes...but he never quite made it that far. Instead, during the process where his human consciousness was ripped from his body and inserted into a massive metal contraption called a Station Core, the ship that he was being transported on blew up and he was sent hurtling through space. Crash-landing on an unknown planet with just a foot-and-a-half tall, foul-mouthed, nanite-formed AI guide called ALANNA to tell him what happened, Milton has to come to terms with his new existence as a giant metal egg, defend his hazardously-in-need-of-repair outer shell from the dangerous local wildlife (including blood-thirsty squirrels), and manage the unique radiation spewing from his damaged internal reactor - all while figuring out how the heck to get off the planet. All of his work building a "dungeon" underground, defending it with makeshift traps, and filling it with small Combat Units may work well enough against the random beasts wandering around, but they're next to useless when something else even more dangerous shows up knocking on his door: people. Not humans, of course, but the local equivalent - Proctans - who are similar enough to Milton's original species...though with one major difference. They all have unique special abilities that looks suspiciously like "magic". However, there is an even bigger threat that looms on the horizon not only for Milton, but all the Proctans as well... Contains LitRPG/GameLit elements such as level progression and experience, optional tables, no harems, and a heavy Dungeon Core emphasis.

Book excerpt: Milton, Brint, Whisp, and the Guardian Guild are back in the conclusion to the Station Cores series! After the events that previously occurred near the northeastern border of the Kingdom, Milton has a lot of work to do. Not only does the Station Core have to hide his dungeon from the rampaging hordes originating from the Quizard Mountains, but he has to find somewhere to put thousands of children who are heading towards his dungeon for safety. If that wasn't bad enough, Milton also has to find a place for millions of other citizens to live; even though they don't even know who or what the Station Core is, they are counting on him to keep them safe. With that safety, though, comes a chance at something that they never thought they'd have: power...and revenge. Milton isn't just going to build more habitations for them to stay comfortably in his new Underground Kingdom; no, he has a proposition for them that they would be fools to ignore. The acquisition of new abilities means that the need for an immediate education on how to control those new powers is paramount. Strangely enough, it's time for some new students to enroll in Milton's new Guardian University. But will they be able to learn well and fast enough to get the revenge they seek? In the end, they'll have to - especially if they want to take on and defeat the army fielded by...the other Core. Contains LitRPG and GameLit elements such as level progression and experience, optional tables, no harems, and a heavy Dungeon Core emphasis.

Book excerpt: Two engineers hijack a spaceship to join some space pirates—only to discover the pirates are hiding from a malevolent AI. Now they have to outwit the AI if they want to join the pirate crew—and survive long enough to enjoy it. Adda and Iridian are newly minted engineers, but aren’t able to find any work in a solar system ruined by economic collapse after an interplanetary war. Desperate for employment, they hijack a colony ship and plan to join a famed pirate crew living in luxury at Barbary Station, an abandoned shipbreaking station in deep space. But when they arrive there, nothing is as expected. The pirates aren’t living in luxury—they’re hiding in a makeshift base welded onto the station’s exterior hull. The artificial intelligence controlling the station’s security system has gone mad, trying to kill all station residents and shooting down any ship that attempts to leave—so there’s no way out. Adda and Iridian have one chance to earn a place on the pirate crew: destroy the artificial intelligence. The last engineer who went up against the AI met an untimely end, and the pirates are taking bets on how the newcomers will die. But Adda and Iridian plan to beat the odds. There’s a glorious future in piracy…if only they can survive long enough.

Book excerpt: Albany Rott created the secret nocturnal city of Station as a second chance for a select few. Complete with an automaton servant class, extreme surgical procedures that can dramatically alter appearances, and exotic narcotics, Station was founded as a utopian world for those who had failed to cope with life's challenges. Or at least that was the story being told. Grief-stricken Marlin Hadder had failed to cope with life's biggest challenge, so he killed himself. The death didn't take, but it did earn him a bizarre invitation to the city of eternal night. As city and man are united by unseen forces, a unique partnership is forged. Station's alien environment is exactly what Marlin Hadder needs to overcome his loss and build a new life. Marlin Hadder's unique convoluted disposition makes him the exact hero that Station needs to stave off its inevitable fall. As storm clouds gather over a group of violent residents called Risers, who have abused Station's gifts to transform themselves into killing machines, Hadder must convince a community grown complacent that they'll have to fight for these new lives. Because third chances don't exist. As a shocking murder, a great duel, and a heartbreaking act set chess pieces in motion, dark truths emerge concerning the Risers' ultimate goal and Marlin Hadder's role as savior or destructor. The clock is ticking. And Station's greatest question remains unanswered. Was Station truly founded for the reasons stated? Or are the residents mere puppets for cheap theater between gods?
