Space Marine Adventures

Bo Duckworth is a former master sergeant with the Republican Marines. Forced out of the service for destroying a recalcitrant X103 battle bot during a critical mission, he is out of a job, out of luck and out of ideas on how to make it as a civilian. Like other lost souls, he drifts toward the frontiers of known space looking to find a new life. Tom Savage is expanding Phaethon Solar, offering the company’s technology to asteroid miners, new planet explorers and others probing the fringes of the galaxy.

In the aftermath of the war between Star League and the Planetary Republic, the old regime’s borders continue to wither. Now down to a fraction of its previous holdings, the former tetrarchy is held together by Julian Thrall’s youngest “daughter,” Jade. She rules with an iron fist under the tutelage of StarCen, the League’s primary AI. But Jade Thrall is no human. She is instead the most advanced android ever conceived, so sophisticated she is not even aware of her artificial nature. What she does know are all the tricks of subterfuge and cruelty required of a ruthless dictator. ...

Tom Savage is intent on homesteading, and Phaethon is the newest planet open for colonization. Here, technology is lacking in many places. And for 200 credits, anyone can claim one square kilometer of prime farmland. But Tom has a secret or two. He is not interested in farming crops, at least not at first. Tom wants to harvest pieces of Phaethon’s sun. To do so will mean first reaching his stake out near the desert, surviving human predators along the way, bringing fugitives to justice, and dealing with the resident sand dragon population. All in a day’s work for your local star farmer...

Standing between them and total universal doom is the least likely Avengers lineup ever assembled: a rule-breaking starfighter ace, a stuntwoman who treats gravity like a polite suggestion, a super-assassin with more ways to kill you than you have bones, and a wisecracking alien prankster who thinks reality is his personal toy box. Their job? Protecting not ...

Into this milieu a band of Marine outcasts join the fight....

The war for Earth is just the opening act. The Xortaag armada has never lost a war. Now their ships blot out Earth’s sky, and our last line of defense is four people who should absolutely not be in charge of saving the world: A movie-quoting pilot with a death wish. A stuntwoman who treats danger like a hobby. A silent assassin with a body count, not a personality. And a paranoid cosmic spymaster who trusts no one. Their fight starts in Earth’s orbit… then tears through wormholes, broken timelines, and clashing alternate universes. Every choice echoes across multiple Earths in the ...
