Having returned from the Andromeda Galaxy as heroes, the team soon learns that the remaining Nuoreans in the Milky Way aren't too thrilled with the fact that the Humans destroyed their homeworld of Nuor. Now they're going to make Adam and his friends pay for it. After placing an exorbitant bounty on the heads of each team member, nearly every creature in the galaxy becomes a hired killer. Although Adam's never been one to run from a fight, this may be too much for even him.

The ancient Aris helped created nearly all advanced life in the galaxy. But they weren't alone. Now the long lost Children of the Aris have resurfaced, freed from their Quantum prison. And now, they're on a mission to reconstitute their race, supplanting all other life in the Milky Way. And to that end they need the mysterious Formation device. To get it, they've kidnapped the super mutants, Panur and Lila. Little do they know, Panur is no longer immortal and he will surely die if Adam Cain and his friends can't find him and Adam's daughter, Lila, in time.

Adam Cain is getting too old for this shit. Sure, he only looks to be around thirty, but this is his second lifetime, and he's getting a little tired of always having to kick alien ass. Besides that, he's got piles of energy credits, so he doesn't have to keep risking his life for the money. But then again, he is The Human for Hire, the best of the best, and everyone knows it.

They once thought dark energy was the ultimate power in the universe. They were mistaken. And now a desperate race is underway to be the first to discover how The Formation helped create life in the universe. But with the power to create life also comes the power to destroy it. This was power even the wise and ancient Aris knew was too great for them to possess. Now imagine what it could do in the hands of a mere mortal...such as Adam Cain.

Captain Malick and the crew of the Pioneer are on a mission of exploration to the farthest reaches of the solar system. As they near the uncharted planet Sworld, they receive an unexpected distress call. Compelled to investigate, Malick and the crew discover a derelict ship carrying a cargo of five aliens in stasis, along with instructions to bring them aboard.

When The Human takes on a minor mercenary job of protecting a group of settlers against alien marauders, it seems simple enough . . . until the bad guys don't take no for an answer, leaving Adam with only one option.

As the evil Klin continue their rampage across the galaxy, Adam enlists the help of mutants Panur and Lila to find a solution to the Klin problem. But time is running out. The deadly power of the Klin is growing exponentially with each passing day. And add to that the sniveling politicians from the Expansion and the Union who fear Adam's daughter Lila more than they do the Klin. Now Adam is up against enemies on both sides of the conflict, leaving it up to him and his team to save the galaxy—again. But this time he has some major brain-power on his side.

In the continuation of their last adventure, Adam and his team have returned from The Lost Universe with the evil and insane Aris being Kracion close on their tail. Now the mission becomes two-fold: Warn the galaxy of this new threat, while also on a quest to find the artificial planet of the Aris in time to save Lila and Panur from being assimilated by Kracion, making him the immortal god he's spent three billion years to become. If he's successful, no power in the galaxy can stop him . . . except maybe an ex-Navy SEAL from Southern California named Adam Cain . . .

With the ancient Aris service module Kanan out of the picture - at least for a while - there's a lot for Marshal Adam Cain to tend to within the Dead Zone. If Adam thought things were wild and woolly before, wait until he sees what happens in the aftermath of Kanan. Politics, terrorists, assassins, thieves, and more...I could go on and on, but you get the picture. And now, as Adam slowly builds a secret force of super agents within the ranks of Enforcers, they begin to take on assignments usually reserved for, well, supermen. Fortunately, the shoe fits. 

With the question lingering what happened to the evil Mad Aris Kracion, Adam and his team are preparing to follow the clues to an answer. But first, Adam takes a quick detour to help a stranded Summer, Monty, and Tidus get off the planet Sasin, the most dangerous place in the galaxy. It's a no big deal mission which quickly devolves into the beginning of the greatest challenge for Adam and his team. Both Adam and Summer are going through strange and not so subtle changes; Adam from the mind meld he did with the super mutant Panur, and Summer from her contact with the Essence of J'nae. 

When Adam Cain's old bounty-hunting friends, Summer, Monty, and Tidus, show up searching for the most-wanted fugitive in the galaxy, their efforts are thwarted by another old friend, Copernicus Smith. The deep-cover spy has his own reason for finding the fugitive, and it's not to earn the million-credit bounty offered for his capture. The elusive alien absconded with billions of credits from his homeworld just before the Mad Aris Kracion irradiated the planet. And now it seems as though the entire galaxy is looking for him.

Born as Sarai, a daughter of wealth and privilege in Ur, land of the Chaldeans, the young woman who would come to be known as “Sarah, mother of nations,” cared as little for the distant backwater land called Canaan as she did for the old, forgotten God of Noah and those who came before him. Then came the news that she had been pledged in marriage to her half-brother, Abram, upending her late mother’s vision for her life. Worse still, she was now forced to vow before the gods -all of them, both hers and Abram’s- that she would submit to her husband’s will, calling him ‘lord’ in...

Xander Moore is the senior pilot at the Rapid Defense Center, the clearinghouse for America's defensive drone force. Although only in his mid-thirties, Xander is the "old man" at the Center, as other pilots are barely out of high school. But these kids, as gamers most of their lives, are skilled at remote drone operation and combat tactics.

She was born by the name Hadassah, in a simple Jewish household in the Persian capital of Susa. But the name everyone remembers was the one she never wanted: Esther. Growing up, she admired Queen Vashti, a woman who never let a man order her around. When she was brought against her will to the king’s palace to serve as a lowly concubine, she felt certain she was destined for something greater. She just wasn’t ready to find out how right she was. Elevated by her beauty to the status of royalty, Esther soon found herself trapped in a world where assassins lurked in every shadow and the ...

When the aliens came to Earth and outlawed war, it left Army Ranger Lieutenant Jason King looking for another way to make a living. Now he's a successful real estate broker working on the planet Sylox—the capital of the Galactic Union—yet he's always itching for the chance to get back in the saddle again . . . So, when an old Army buddy shows up on his doorstep, Jason finds himself drawn into a web of high-stakes intergalactic intrigue and adventure, and with the fate of Earth hanging in the balance.

“Go, take to yourself a wife of whoredom...” In a Bible filled with “bad girls gone good,” one exception stands out for doing the opposite. Her name is Gomer, daughter of Diblaim. Married early in life to Hosea, an Old Testament prophet who loved her with a passion that suffuses the very Scriptures themselves, if there was ever a woman who should have had every reason to stay true to God, it was Gomer. Yet the story of her faithlessness, betrayal, and eventual flight from her husband Hosea -even abandoning her three children in the process- was so sordid that God Himself used her as...

The ancient Aris service module Kanan is on a mad quest for galactic domination and only Adam Cain and his friends (both new and old) can stop him. However, with the return of the immortal mutant geniuses Panur and Lila, Kanan may have met his match. The tension, the excitement, the stakes...all rise in Dark Energy, as this latest threat to the galaxy comes to a head.
