The Commonwealth now has outposts days or weeks from Earth. When problems arise at the outpost in the distant Epsilon Indi system, no one knows what is happening. Everyone has a theory. And some are taking action. Admiral Ngene is caught off guard and needs to act fast before someone crosses a line that could lead the Commonwealth to disaster.

Can the Commonwealth hold together or will internal divisions and outside forces drive us apart?

When an old Tyndal mining station now run by Terrans is attacked, a friendly gesture from a traditional enemy leads to questions. Can the old adversary be trusted, or is it all too much to hope?

Can two former enemies work together to save the peace?

The three spacefaring human governments have formed an alliance. When a fourth group of humans are discovered claiming that they are living under Rrennak oppression, something has to be done. Captain Christopher Ryan and the starship Republic are sent to investigate. What they find is incredible; now they just have to escape the Rrennak Imperium with their proof. The only thing in their favor - the Imperium is dealing with its own problems. Maybe they won't notice the pesky humans. Maybe.

Humanity is finally united under the Solar Commonwealth. Under the Pax Solaris, the world no longer lives with the threat of nuclear devastation hanging over it like the sword of Damocles. But not everyone is happy with the new order, and some have decided that a change of leadership is required. And they are more than willing to see sacrifices made to implement their vision.

As the Solar Commonwealth expands into the stars, it faces critics from within and enemies from beyond. What happens when the two groups join forces?

Leeyak-dar was the leader of a powerful Krayd band, until he reached out and attacked a distant Commonwealth colony world.

Now he has a chance to regain his standing by stealing a starship from the very people who defeated him. He's confident - despite an over-the-hill raiding ship, an inexperienced crew and interference from those in his own band who would rather see him fail. Dar has a plan, all he needs is a little luck to prove he's still got it! What could go wrong?
