Story
The descendants of a fourth Earth colony ship, Destiny, successfully establish a foothold in unoccupied space. Naiad, the home world, is a frozen ball, but the colonists persevere and expand through wormholes to remote systems. Navigating the time-space anomalies requires Axis-ships. The expensive vessels are constructed by corporations, and remote worlds are claimed by the companies for their valuable ores and gases.

For 300,000 colonists, the new colony brings the promise of a fresh start...a second chance. Connor might be the wrong man for the colony, but he's the right man to see that it survives what's coming.

To make matters worse, there’s a murderer running loose on board the ship, critically low fuel levels, and the Grish are back, in fast pursuit and ready to finish what they’d started. Only by sheer luck - and a good measure of cagey smarts - will Quintos be able to rise to the challenge.

A Good Concept and Decent (But Not Great) Story

Publisher's summary
Opportunity is presented to Admiral Cordelia. Imperium’s Presiding Executor Gaketork sends emissaries to establish communications with her, and she responds by installing a comm system aboard the executor’s transport. The Imperium governor, who has become sentient, uses the new comm system to send her critical data.
Cordelia shares the governor’s information with newly assembled Trident squadron commanders. She directs the commanders to scour another executor’s territory and free suborned worlds of mercenary Radags and Krackus overseers.
Imperium executors are incensed at the numerous returns of empty freighters and savaged peacekeepers from their territories. Many suspect a traitor is leaking sensitive information to the conclave, and they hunt for the culprit.
Far away from the empire, Julien supports the uplift of relatively undeveloped races. A Yeret-inhabited world near the Queller anomaly requires additional water, and slinging water ice asteroids at the planet for annuals will suffice.
Supporting other races proves problematic. The Monkfreds, a symbiosis of two telepathic races, struggle to survive. On their home world, hostile predators target the young. The plan to send the matriarchs, their calves, and their riders to other planets is failing.
During rescue of Monkfreds from an inhospitable environment, the conclave finds burning wreckage. The matriarchs used the heat to keep the calves, the riders, and themselves from freezing to death. The wreckage is identified as Utilimat. Now the question remains: Who destroyed the warships meant to protect the Monkfreds?

Story
The descendants of a fourth Earth colony ship, Destiny, successfully establish a foothold in unoccupied space. Naiad, the home world, is a frozen ball, but the colonists persevere and expand through wormholes to remote systems. Navigating the time-space anomalies requires Axis-ships. The expensive vessels are constructed by corporations, and remote worlds are claimed by the companies for their valuable ores and gases.

Story
When a salvage job on an old battlefield goes awry, Kril's left with no crew, no food, a suspiciously absent client, and far too many enemies. Fortunately, it's a big universe, and he's got a fast ship and the best pilot in twenty light-years to watch his back. His journey to keep 'er flying and get a crew back together will take him from rescue operations in collapsing freighters to fighting dinosaurs in the sewage canals of pirate paradises and to points beyond. The odds are stacked against him, but Kril keeps it simple.

Story
No ship ever lands on Callisto... that is, until a shuttle crash-lands. There is only one survivor--Llyrica, Edgar's ex-wife, the one person in all the solar system Edgar hates most--the only woman Edgar has ever loved. No woman can survive on Callisto. There is a plague on the moon that kills all females. When the colony was originally settled, all the women and girls became sick. 80% of them died before the colony could be evacuated. And then there is the danger from the prisoners themselves.

Her late grandfather Pete Stevenson, maybe the weirdest of all, was an automotive engineer whose hobby was trying to chase down proof of aliens and time-travel all over the world. Incidents through the years seemed to suggest that Grandad had indeed come across compelling evidence that alien presence was real. ...

Keeping the positive vibe.
Thanks so much. In today's world of mostly looser stories, Scott manages to keep things upbeat. I get enough ugly news, when I want an escape, I go to this author. Hope you like it as much as I did.

Anyone else getting Axis Crossing Fatigue?
I've been a big fan since the beginner of the silver ship series. As I've just finished Book 11 of Gate Ghosts, my brain is becoming stew. The Silver Ships and Pyrean books were well paced and well compartmentalized. By the time Aritifice was wrapped up in Sojourn and the Pyrean series merged with Alliance (Silver Ships), it was a new series with new players. But Axis Crossing is just getting way out of hand. The author isn't closing one "chapter" before bringing in 2, 3 or now 4 different vectors. IMHO it would have been better to keep this series just to the Axis Crossing and maybe the Krackus, then reset with another time jump before all of the wormhole explorations began. Half the time in this book I lost track of which species / planet a new protagonist belonged to as a new chapter opened.

Another great book in the series - more first contacts
Loved this book in the gate ghost series as Julian and the conclave continue to make first contact with new races and planets. As well as follow up with sisters who continue to adapt and change and are welcomed to the conclave. Also we see new digital entities emerge.

Slow background building
knowing that this is a large series, you have to accept that some books set the stage for future adventures. this one does not have a lot of action, but there will hopefully be a payoff in the next book or two.
