Daniel Clay fought across the galaxy as a corporate soldier. He left the violence behind for a life of science, raising a family far from the bloodshed of the Corporation. With his wife, Sarah, and son, Michael, he studied the alien Tyr for years, hidden among their complex societies. Their mission should have ended with the arrival of a replacement team. Instead, the Clays’ corporate overlords choose a death sentence: an invasion fleet to conquer the Tyr. 

The Clay family struggle to find a way to stop the corporation before all hope is lost. Daniel Clay and General Fastal launch a secret and dangerous mission to steal the only weapon that can turn the tide. Sarah Clay, surrounded by a faction she can’t trust, must win over the Hidden cabal to infiltrate behind enemy lines. Their son, Michael, fights to survive amidst a sea of refugees and to keep his true identity secret. The ordeal of the human invasion continues. The Clay family are beset by enemies and threats on all sides as they search for a way to save the Tyr…and to save their family.

The Tyr stand on the brink of extinction. The Clay family has one last desperate plan to save the Tyr. Sarah leads an infiltration team of Tyr deep behind the invader's lines, but can she trust the Hidden caste operatives with her? David carries the device that could sever the planet from the threat of Director Zike, while Tyr traitors are on his trail and will stop at nothing to obey their new masters and to exact revenge against General Fastal. As the Tyr fight for survival, secrets will be revealed with implications for the galaxy far beyond what happens on their world.

Alex was willing to do whatever it took to beat the tumors overwhelming his body. Even if it meant being frozen alive. And if his cortex got uploaded into a digital universe filled with countless worlds to explore until a cure could be found for his cancer, all the better. The last thing he expected was to wake up naked and alone in the bowels of an ancient ship filled with raiders carrying enough poison to kill an entire city!

I saw it in a memory. I know how crazy that sounds. There were ten kingdoms of Atlantis, as Plato taught us, each ruled by one of the sons of the legendary Poseidon. I know where they all are. We are not the first advanced civilization. We aren't even the second. Others existed, and they left behind clues to help their descendants. To help us. I found those clues, including a device used by the ancients that allows me to relive their memories.

Long ago some of our ancestors were marked by gods. These mythological kings are found in lists all over the world. The Sumerian Kings list. The Egyptian Kings List. The Biblical Kings List.

I've been to Cairo, Mauritania, and Gobekli Tepe. Now the myths of the ancients lead my team to Mexico and Guatemala to ancient Aztec and Mayan ruins. Both Teotihuacan and Tikal hold secrets, and I need to find them. Fast. A thousand years ago Nahua sages hid the Pendant of Xochitl. With it we have enough power to repair the Fortress of Atlas, which is vital to earth's survival. Without it? Earth gets reset back into the stone age during an asteroidal impact, the same kind that caused the mythological flood.

I've found the Fortress of Atlas, and been to the legendary Halls of Amenti. I know Atlantis was real, but the city was destroyed by a massive tidal wave. Except now I know part of the city survived. Beneath Atlantis lay the vast cavern known as Abzu, from ancient Sumerian mythology.

LIDAR scans of the area beneath the Great Pyramids have revealed something astonishing. An entire city lies beneath the sands, hidden for countless millennia, remembered only by the ancient priests of the early dynastic Egyptians. Thoth left behind the Emerald Tablets to explain what lies within the Halls of Amenti, a place that transcends life and death. There he met 32 immortal sages, and became the 33rd so that he could pass the knowledge onto the Egyptians.

When the Terra Nova alliance learns where a critical relic is hidden on an alien world, Ely Hale leads the fight to recover the artifact before the Inheritors can seize it. The Qa'Resh artifact holds the key to unlocking the Inheritor's full, terrible strength. Ely, and the Armor fighting beside him, must capture or destroy the artifact to keep it out of enemy hands. While the Lotan aliens that possess the artifact lack the strength to stand against the Inheritors, they're unwilling to part with it quickly and easily.
