Lieutenant Tamryn Pavlenko wants to make a name for herself in the GalCon Fleet, so naturally she requests an assignment on the infamous Frost Station Alpha, where pirate attacks are a way of life. The remote research outpost holds secrets that many are willing to kill for, and Tamryn is prepared to protect it from brigands, mobsters, and mercenaries—or whatever the galaxy throws at her.

The brochure, however, failed to mention the genetically engineered super humans who were supposed to have all been killed in a war that ended more than a century ago. It seems they’re not only alive, but they want the station. Oh, and one of them decides he wants Tamryn too.

This powerful warrior might be sexy and intriguing, but he was bred to kill, and she can’t let herself forget that he’s the enemy.

This ebook contains the complete Frost Station Alpha serial, previously published in six installments.

What Amazon readers say about the books of The Impossible Future:

The Last Everything:

? ? ? ? ? "I really enjoyed the twists and turns in the plot as Jamie tries to figure out who to trust as he struggles with the new truth in his life. The end was surprising and primed me for the next book ..." - Yenot Raccoon

The Risen Gods:

? ? ? ? ? "The concepts of this series is so sweeping and so tightly written it pulls you right into the midst of this reality. I read The Last of Everything and immediately had to buy and read this. ... You can feel that this story took hold of the author and would not let go. The writing is very visual and packs an emotional punch. I won't forget the Chancellory any time soon." - Amazon Customer

The Reversing Tide:

The Promised Few:

? ? ? ? ? "I can't express how incredible this entire series has been. It sounds so silly and corny that a book was so dang good that you can't express it! But it's really hard to find words to say how great this book and the rest of the series is. A fantastic space-opera, with time-y elements (that one is just hard to explain without giving it all away), and a really incredible story too. I never wanted this one to end." - Fluffyluggage

No one fights dirtier than an archaeologist.
Dr. Nel Bently has barely dug into Chile’s dry earth when her pristine site is vandalized. Her archaeologist’s dream of a ground-breaking project funded by a private patron turns into a nightmare: local activists Los Pobladores take issue with anyone brave--or stubborn--enough to set boots on their land. And foul-mouthed Nel is stubborn as they come.

Despite the danger, Nel refuses to surrender her site to vandals. Easier said than done, however, with the greenest crew she’s ever trained, absurd radiocarbon dates, and angry militants who may actually have a point.

When Los Pobledores land a blow that turns Nel’s world upside down, she realizes her mysterious benefactor is playing chess with their lives. Grief-stricken and angrier than ever, Nel is ready to fight dirty.

THE X-FILES meets LARA CROFT in this queer, snarky science fiction adventure about where we came from, and where we’re going from International Bestselling author V. S. Holmes. Scroll up and one-click now to embark on the adventure!

Praise for Travelers
An excerpt of Travelers is included in the Peregrine Lunar Lander as part of the Writers on the Moon Time Capsule.

"...Holmes immerses the reader in the dirty and painstakingly slow processes of on-the-ground archaeology. There’s enough readerly fascination to snag attention, while wincing at Nel’s behaviour. Setting up an engaging but unlikeable main protagonist is a feat. Holmes leaves no option but to keep reading. A romp through pre-history using the framework of universal history, Travelers opens unexpected storylines to play out in the next three episodes. Readers who like stubborn, badly behaved but splendid characters will have a ball. The vibe is deadpan, gumshoe noir. She may be no Lara Croft, but Nel is some adventurer."
- Aurealis Magazine

"A fantastic, short yet powerful sci-fi adventure...A memorable, entertaining and investing read, author V.S. Holmes’ “Travelers” is a must-read start to an incredible sci-fi saga. With emotional and action-packed twists and turns and an ending that leaves open some great story possibilities for future books, the author has crafted a masterful narrative and memorable characters that many readers will be able to identify with."
- Anthony Avina

“I think I'm in love with this series. Grounded in the solid bedrock of real archeological techniques and experience, it takes off from there into the fantastic. I love it the way I love Tony Hillerman's writing: it challenges me to research new areas of study without once losing the draw of a gripping narrative. Even better, it shows truly rounded queer characters whose sexuality is just one facet of a complex and engaging personality. From page 1 Nel tromped through my imagination with a screw-you-too grin and a trowel in her back pocket. Her description of the field life feels incredibly real. This book rocks.”
-O. E. Tearmann, author of The Hands We’re Given

“The whole concept this story is based on and built around is fascinating, the way V.S. Holmes has written the characters and plot is brilliant... a suspenseful read with lots of surprises, a touch of romance, and a whole lot of promise...”
-Serena Yates of Rainbow Book Reviews
