Sovereign Stars

Five years after physicist Mark Holder discovered the Slipstream Drive in 2058, humanity reached for the stars and began to colonize the galaxy. For centuries, humans continued to populate system after system without encountering intelligent alien life. Some twelve hundred years later, after many generations of relative peace, in the year 3278, human space is invaded by a powerful and mysterious enemy. To these invaders the very concept of free will is heresy. Their crusade-to eradicate humanity. The war begins, and the fight for the survival of the human race is on. Book 1 of Sovereign Stars, Avenger, is the first novel in a gripping, action-filled military space opera in which Avenger, under the command of Knight Captain Richard Morian, is sent to one of the outer star systems on a rescue mission. What he discovers there suggests the entire Orso Carrier Group is destined for annihilation.Start the adventure, with Avenger Book One!

In the footsteps of Asimov and Clarke. An epic interstellar adventure. The USF has assembled the largest battle fleet in its history as they prepare for the inevitable cataclysmic battle with the Swarm. Avenger, a Class C heavy battle cruiser, is sent on an urgent rescue mission to the planet Typhon in the Eta Persei star system. A planet devastated and left desolate at the beginning of the war against the Swarm, an alien invader from another reality. Their intent? The total eradication of the human race from the galaxy. What they find on Typhon could change the outcome of the war. The rescue mission becomes a race against time as Captain Morian and the crew of the Avenger battle the Swarm in space and on the planet's surface.

As the inter-dimensional enemy closes in on humanity's last stronghold, the saga continues. Commodore Richard Morian and the crew of the Avenger find themselves at the forefront of the battle against the Blues.

With new technology, advanced weaponry, and a fierce determination to protect their home planet and the galaxy at large, the Avenger is ready to take on almost any challenge. But as they drive deeper into enemy territory, they discover their most dangerous enemies may not be the aliens themselves, but a traitor within their own ranks.
