Humanity has always possessed a fascination with the unknown. More specifically the universe. In the case of thirteen-year-old, ORION MOORE, it literally was all he had ever known. Since birth, Orion has lived amongst a group of over five hundred Earthlings on the Rover Base Alpha, a gigantic space-station that left the Earth decades' prior in search of a new home. In a matter of weeks, the Base's leadership put a plan into action that would send their Rover teams to foreign galaxies in hopes of securing a planet suitable for colonization. At the same time, Orion and his fellow classmates ...

The pulse-pounding finale has arrived. A powerful force seeks to recreate the star system—pushing the Red Rover and its young adult crew to the brink of extinction. There is nowhere to run and hide as only the "strong" will survive the Ingression! From the moment the Red Rover first disembarked from the Rover Base Alpha—they were on a collision course with destiny. The trials and tribulations they had withstood across two-star systems and multiple foreign worlds could attest to that.

For over half-a-decade, Donovan Marius has observed his seven pubescent pupils with a combination of pride and astonishment. The voluminous amount of danger they had faced and overcame without wilting under the pressure—had proven to be one of the great joys of his life. Simply put... the good doctor had taught them well. His once neophytes had gone above and beyond the call of duty—surpassing even his wildest dreams. With the Kethyrian interplanetary conflict behind them, so begins an unexpected phase of listlessness and monotony, that leaves more than a few members of the crew ...

History is written by the victors. Picking up moments after the events in Contingence, the Red Rover crew are faced with an imminent threat that could destroy everything they hold sacred. Much of this world is a barren landscape so ravaged by war and resentment that separating the good from the bad would be contingent on which way the sand dunes blow: Today’s rogue is tomorrow’s redeemer while yesterday’s freedom’s fighter is today’s tyrant. The Paprijians, an ancient Kethyrian civilization, have been meticulously planning a covert operation to destroy their loathsome adversaries ...

Freedom is the type of expression that universally can never be defined. Primarily because it does not hold the same connotation for everyone who uses it. For the members of the Red Rover, never before in their lives had they ever experienced as much latitude to flourish as they currently did right now. They would be returning to the great unknown with a better understanding of who they were and what they stood for. It wouldn't be long before they were considered a force to be reckoned with. In Marius’ eyes, the day he would pass the leadership baton to them was fast approaching. ...

In any genuine pursuit of enlightenment, one of the leading prerequisites for success would have to be considered application, more often than not. Otherwise, the knowledge obtained might hold tangential value at best. From the moment his seven students first entered his survival education simulator, Donovan Marius fought tooth and nail to break them of their individualistic habits—in hopes that they would eventually appreciate the benefits of accomplishing tasks as a collective. While they had been brought many times to the brink of epic disaster, during their seemingly never-ending ...

Time is often considered one of man's greatest enemies. Over two years have passed since the Red Rover's daring escape from the Galicia star system. Their youthful exuberance to traverse the great unknown has justifiably began to wane, forcing them to part ways with idealism, replacing it instead with pragmatism. When the ship makes an emergency landing on a foreign world named Araneus, questions begin to simmer to the surface regarding Marius' leadership or lack thereof. They no longer are his neophytes and have zero interest in being treated like his subordinates. The line between life ...
