"What did you leave behind, Captain?"
"Bad memories and a f--king mess...."
4991 TCE : 09 : 21
Life is full of choices.
Eric Hillar's choices have led to the United Trade Confederate branding him their first terrorist in over 2000 revolutions. On the run, he finds himself in the sector of space known as The Rim. It is not just the slaver press gangs that notice his arrival.
Pirate Captain Hawke has a target she needs crew for, and she doesn't take no for an answer. If Eric plays his cards right, he might keep his freedom, his life, and earn enough credits to finally disappear.
Or he just might be given the chance to make a choice that matters.…
Descent is the first book from R.A. Howes' Tide of the Stars universe. An intergalactic cyberpunk style universe where the dominant powers are worse than those they brand as criminals. Based in the sector of space known as The Rim, Descent follows Eric Hillar, a man with a price on his head and no one to turn to. Recruited into a space pirate crew, Eric needs to decide if he will keep running, or if he will stop long enough to find a place to belong, even if it is amongst killers.
About the Author
Renee lives with her husband and four children (two furred and two humanoid) in Australia.
After years of procrastination and writing as an off-on hobby, she finally took it seriously during maternity leave and digitally dusted off an old manuscript and reworked her science fiction series, Tide of the Stars. Descent is the first book based in that universe.

Space travel just isn't what it used to be. With the invention of quantum teleportation, space heroes aren't needed anymore. When one particularly unlucky ex-adventurer masquerades as famous pilot and hate figure Jacques McKeown, he's sucked into an ever-deepening corporate and political intrigue. Between space pirates, adorable deadly creatures, and a missing fortune in royalties, saving the universe was never this difficult!

After decades hunting wanted offworlders throughout the solar system, Corporate Bounty Hunter Malcolm Graves doesn't bother asking questions. So long as the pay is right, he's the man for the job. And he always works alone. But when a high-profile bombing on Earth has Pervenio Corp clamoring for answers, they force him to team up with a strange, cyber-augmented partner. A young man more interested in statistics than instinct. Their assignment: Track down a suspected group of extremists from Titan who will go to any length to free their moon from the grip of Earth's corporations.

NASA discovered the alien ship lurking in the asteroid belt in the 1960's. They kept the Target under intense surveillance for decades, letting the public believe they were exploring the solar system, while they worked feverishly to refine the technology needed to reach it. Dr. Jane Holloway is content documenting nearly-extinct languages and had never contemplated becoming an astronaut. But when NASA recruits her to join a team of military scientists for an expedition to the Target, it's an adventure she can't refuse.

Hotshot pilot Nax Hall has a history of making poor life choices. So it’s not exactly a surprise when he’s kicked out of the elite Ellis Station Academy in less than 24 hours. But Nax’s one-way trip back to Earth is cut short when a terrorist group attacks the Academy. Nax and three other washouts escape - barely - but they’re also the sole witnesses to the biggest crime in the history of space colonization. And the perfect scapegoats. On the run, Nax and his fellow failures plan to pull off a dangerous heist to spread the truth.

Black Ops - the intelligence arm of the Meridian Alliance Fleet came calling with an offer Henricksen couldn't refuse: a ship - an entire squadron of ships, actually - and crew to command. A chance to get back to the stars. Too bad he didn't ask more questions before accepting the assignment. Too bad no one told him just how dangerous this particular skunkworks project was. They call the ship the RV-N: Reconnaissance Vessel-Non-combat, Raven for short. A stealth ship - fast, and maneuverable, and brutal as hell.

Inmate 5313 reached the end of his sentence after 10 grueling years. That is, until the wrong question led to a beating with an exclusive stay in the fridge. Before the badges manage to lock him into cryostorage for a nightmare-fueled nap, several explosions send the prison barge plummeting into a frozen planet in unclaimed space. This is the first day of Seb’s freedom, an ill-starred future that includes banding together with cutthroat mercenaries, bartering with sordid information brokers, and fighting against the galaxy's ruthless corporations.

Hudson Powell had always been a drifter, but after his father died, he vowed to turn his life around. He quit freelancing as a starship pilot and joined the Relic Guardian Force as a 38-year-old rookie. That was a big mistake. The RGF police the alien wrecks that have been found on every portal world discovered in the last century. They make sure the relic hunters pay taxes on the priceless alien tech they scavenge from the hulks. The snag is that the RGF is corrupt. And Hudson’s training officer Logan Griff is the worst scumbag of the lot.

When a renegade thief and a genetically enhanced mercenary collide, space gets a whole lot hotter! Thief Kara Shimsi has learned three lessons well - keep her head down, her fingers light, and her tithes to the syndicate paid on time. But now a failed heist has earned her a death sentence - a one-way ticket to the toxic waste outside the dome. Her only chance is a deal with the syndicate's most ruthless enforcer, a wolfish mountain of genetically-modified muscle named Davien. The thought makes her body tingle with dread - or is it heat?
