On the edge of known space, something disturbing is amassing. Reports from the Sovereign Coalition’s largest telescopes show a swarm of ships thousands of light-years away. The threat is real, and it looks like it’s headed for the inner Coalition planets. The people of the Coalition have little more than a year if they’re lucky. While the Admiralty scrambles to come up with a solution, there is one person who might be able to help: Caspian Robeaux.

When elite Delta Force soldier Luke Stone joins a secretive government agency, he is dispatched on the mission of a lifetime: a whirlwind race across Europe and the Mid-East to save the President’s daughter before she is beheaded by terrorists.

He needs a payday. He’ll settle for payback. Betrayed and left to rot on the edges of the galaxy, Caspian Robeaux is deep in debt and stuck flying courier missions in an old rustbucket he can barely keep afloat. Things start to look up, though, when a stranger arrives and offers a lucrative job that Cas can’t refuse, with a payday big enough to change his fortunes permanently. His luck gets even better when Cas learns that the job might offer him the one thing he wants more than his next drink: A chance to clear his name.

The crew of the USCS Tempest may have escaped near-death near the Excel Nebula, but their journey is just beginning. As Caspian tries to find his place among the crew on their journey to unknown space, Evie is haunted by ghosts of her past. Both of them will have to work together if they want to find out what's going on with the threat known only as Andromeda.

When you've got nothing left, why not risk it all? They say life in the Coalition is idyllic, utopian. Tell that to Caspian Robeaux, who was tried, convicted, and thrown in prison.

And he might just have to take the biggest chance of his life if he wants to survive.

Having barely survived their encounter with the mysterious race known only as Andromeda, the crew of the USCS Tempest now must find a way to repair the ship if they ever want to get back to the Coalition to warn them of what’s coming.

But finding friendly species in an uncharted region of space is easier said than done.

Upon returning from the alien planet, the remaining crew of the USCS Tempest never could have anticipated this: Their ship is in impeccable condition, almost like it never left space dock. Due to a unique distortion in the planet’s atmosphere, Cas, Evie, and the rest of the crew who visited the planet missed the last 18 years of history. But just because those who stayed aboard had time to repair the ship, doesn’t mean all is good. The truth of what happened in those 18 years may be more than any of them are ready to handle.

The crew of the USCS Tempest has faced many hardships, but none so dire as crashing on a planet with no way to contact their ship. Now with no power, no resources, and no idea how to get back, they’ll have to find a way to survive on this strange, untamed world. But not all is as it seems. This planet hides some dark secrets, such as why does the sun never seem to set? Or why, despite a lush environment, are there no other species here?
