Description:

Physics doesn’t negotiate. Neither does she.

Twelve years ago, a Polish colony found an alien warship in a debris field. Now every superpower in human space wants what they reverse-engineered.

On the frontier, Polonia Prime is a small, underfunded nation with one unforgivable advantage: hybrid alien drive and weapons technology that can rewrite every fleet doctrine in the Hyades Cluster.

Lieutenant Commander Maria Roszak earned her command through tactical competence, not bloodline or politics. Her destroyer B?yskawica is a relic on the outside, retrofitted inside with forbidden Bubble-drive systems, railgun batteries, and point-defense grids that skate the edge of physics. When a Zenith Caliphate carrier strike group crosses the border to seize Polonia’s secrets, Maria finds herself outnumbered, outgunned—and no longer sure her own side is playing straight.

Every time the enemy finds her faster than they should, suspicion grows. If she’s right about a leak in her own chain of command, exposing it could destroy her career and her ship long before the Caliphate does. To keep her crew alive and her nation independent, Maria must turn debris fields into weapons, doctrine into a disadvantage, and an obsolete destroyer into the sharpest blade in Polonia’s arsenal.

In a battlespace where Newtonian recoil, delta-v budgets, and railgun kinetics decide who lives, one captain’s brain is the only shield her people have left.

For readers who love:

Hard-science military space opera with real-physics combat (Bubble-drive micro-jumps, railguns, missiles, point defense, no magic)
Underdog nations, carrier strike groups, and destroyer-captain tactics under political pressure
Competent female officers, gritty tone, and respect for military professionalism
Series like The Lost Fleet and The Expanse, where brains matter more than bigger guns

ALWAYS HAVE A PLAN. OR MAKE ONE UP REALLY QUICKLY.

Slim Taggart has stolen plenty of things in his short life. That's what happens when you come from a family of planet-hopping thieves.

But when he somehow finds himself in possession of a shard from an ancient alien tech known as the Emberling, things start getting hotter than he likes.

Before Taggart knows it, a half-dozen criminal syndicates are on his tail, desperate for the powerful payload.

And that's before he manages to take aboard a motley crew of characters who each openly admit they'd kill for it, too.

Luckily, Taggart has a plan. He always does.

He just hasn't quite figured out what it is yet...

Exiled is the first book in the Emberling series, an action-packed carnival ride of a space opera that will leave you breathless.

Note: This is an homage to classic pulp sci-fi. If you're looking for hard sci-fi, look elsewhere. But if you're looking for adventures on alien planets with even more alien creatures, this is the series for you!

Description:

Their fortunes are spent, frittered away on junk food and alcohol. Their crew is dwindled down to its last three members. The galaxy has all but forgotten about them.

Two years have passed since Captain Nemo rose to the heights of galactic infamy only to crash and burn in spectacular fashion. Hiding out in the galaxy’s bloomhole, the three remaining members of The Unconstant Lover’s crew are broke, desperate and ready to murder one another at the slightest provocation.

That’s when they stumble upon the greatest heist the galaxy’s ever seen, all planned and packaged just for them.

That heist will see them robbing blind the most feared megacorp in the galaxy – the impregnable Gitter Consortium. It will take all of the crew’s cunning, firepower and profanity to escape this one with the booty on board – and they’re two men down.

The greatest challenge the cutthroat crew faces, however, is not spice rangers or planetary blockades or corporate secrets – it’s themselves. With seven years of bickering and backstabbing under their belts, it will be a miracle if these three space pirates can pull together enough to pull off this one last job.
