Over 2,000 pages of high-octane space opera, bad decisions under fire, emotional gut punches, and enough sarcasm to violate several interstellar treaties. Captain Xander Hawk once did the right thing. He saved a doomed transport—and paid for it with his career, his freedom, and any chance of ever seeing his wife and daughter again. His reward? Life imprisonment in the galaxy’s most miserable hellhole, where hope goes to die and the food probably qualifies as a ...

Now their fleets are on the way, and humanity’s survival plan can be generously described as “improvised.” Our last line of defense consists of: a starfighter pilot who ...
