Publisher's summary
On a hardscrabble colony world, Nexus tracks a mysterious rat outbreak to a shy tortoise-like alien, who calls him Oracle.
If his addled visions amount to fortune-telling, Nexus can’t read the tea leaves. He foresees alien crocs ravaging Earth and enslaving humanity. Another vision depicts him happy in love.
How to evade human extinction and win the girl is unclear.
Word leaks that Nexus is the new heir to a powerful fortune, compounding his social challenges.
To save the human race, escape gold-diggers, repair his space mink, and win the woman of his dreams, Nexus must decode his visions…and talk to people.
For readers who love the quirky found-family spaceship of Firefly, or the gritty future of Murderbot. A must-read for fans of Booth’s Thrive series.

Story
When Nexus catches the attention of the alien croc ambassador, his first space travel goes weirdly astray. A backwoods Earth terraformer, Nexus is awkward with people, good with creatures, at a time when the human worlds are bumping against the alien races who surround them. He sets off to explore human space. But to leave home, he must first repay a debt of honor, and smuggle a highly illegal sentient robot off-planet. Memory murky, the poor robot got stranded on Earth before Nexus was born. Nexus is delighted when the alien ambassador boards his space train to Luna. Most fear the ...

Story
Thrive’s next generation is put to the test. Dark-humored Frazzie, and stolid engineer Tiktok, win rank and cadet berths on Sass Collier’s exciting mission to investigate the dead colony world of Aden. Eerie ruins nestle among Aden’s dark rugged canyons, and a quarter million settlers are gone. What destroyed Aden colony? Meanwhile Frazzie’s father, admiral Ben Acosta, migrates Rayas Colony. Cadets can transport the people. But the Rayans also need their precious space station transferred. That engineering feat requires Ben. Do they have the League’s blessing? No. Do they care? ...

Story
Thrive’s home system tour concludes on freaky Luna, where the hidden agendas of three worlds collide. Will their expedition end in triumph, or a rout? Sass and Ben team up to tackle Luna, final world of their Earth junket. Disgraced, Sass seeks redemption. Cautious Ben haggles for life-altering technology in exchange for saving Mars. Luna is the elder space colony, crowded and weird. Wage slaves scurry to pay air taxes, bombarded by augmented reality ads. Corporations rule, led by frail eunuchs old as Sass, cruel and cunning. Ben finds the jaded Loonies hard to relate to. Yet the team is ...

Story
They thought Earth was dead. Captain Sass Collier can’t die. A century ago, the Colony Corps carried her away to the stars. Because Earth was doomed. She returns with tech advances from the colonies, hoping to restore the one best planet for humanity, and save isolated pockets of desperate survivors. Instead her motley crew from the boonies finds not one, but three surviving worlds — Earth, Luna, and Mars. And she’s with the invading aliens. Her homecoming starts with a bang. The Northern League tyrannizes Earth now. They capture Sass and her ship separately, to hold them hostage ...

They need more ships, and trained crew to fly them. Sass founds the new Colony Corps Academy, assisted by Ben’s space-resistant daughter Frazzie. Can Sass lure her namesake to the stars? As for the invasion, Ben has one slim hope. That between the ...
