An interstellar colony ship on Earth prepares for take-off. Before reaching their first stop—Proxima b Centauri—they are awoken from their cryo pods early, only to learn there's been an alien invasion on Earth. But it's too late. Can the crew find a safe refuge from the invaders and track down colonists from other ships?

Tate Collins hat die Vereinigte Erde zum letzten Mal verraten. Noah und Kayans Mannschaft sind auf einer Mission, um ihn vor Gericht zu bringen. Sie müssen ihn nur finden und die vom Verräter gestohlene Flotte lebender Kriegsschiffe und den modernsten Drohnenschwarm in der Geschichte der VE besiegen.Zumindest glauben sie das, als sie die Jagd beginnen.

Jetzt, da August Walton tot ist und neue Informationen ans Licht gekommen sind, sind Cole Riker und sein Team von Außenseitern endlich wieder auf dem kosmischen Highway zu einem weiteren unbekannten Ort. Diesmal haben sie vielleicht sogar eine Chance, die Mission zu erfüllen und heil nach Hause zu kommen. Doch der Sieg ist nicht so sicher, wie es scheint.

With the attack countdown ticking toward zero, Mark and Perry pitch themselves headfirst into a seemingly impossible mission. One intended to break Gyl-Mareth's hold on the Guild, and thus the galaxy, once and for all. But first, Peaceful Skies must fall. Their strike is silent and deadly. Justice prevails. As a veteran and battle-tested soldier, Mark Tudor understands one key truth—violence is never a straightforward affair. Even the best-laid plans can crumble. And when working against a savvy predator, one should always expect the unexpected.

Noah and Kayan's crew never thought they would get a vacation after saving the Gleam homeworld. Now they're confronted by their new enemies who seem to be one step ahead of them at every turn. Can they stop the conquest of Hellenger Prime and learn why the Skylar have turned the immense manufacturing capacity of the galactic engineers to their own designs? Is it possible to undo the damage these new enemies have already done?

In the wake of victory, Hank hopes that things will calm down. But by now, he should know better. As the fractured Consortium government scrambles to determine the next course of action, one of the Buzzard's crew vanishes in the night. Did they leave on their own or were they taken? And what does this disappearance portend?

Kayan hat die Zitadelle von Hoyon repariert und erfrischt verlassen, auch wenn sie ein wenig verschlossen ist. Warum sollte sie mitteilen, welche Verbesserungen ihr der Heilungsprozess beschert hat? Noah Gantz ist einfach nur froh, wieder im Geschehen zu sein, auf der Suche nach den Geheimnissen der Seher, einem Weg, zwei Galaxien zu retten und Kilis Dane Ryger zu finden, bevor Celia und Ryg Kayan zerstören, um ihre Antworten zu bekommen.

Sanctuary. The perfect refuge from the enemy, the most closely held secret of the resistance, the planet has never been found, never been attacked. Until now. Charlie Travers has been preparing to strike at the Anguilar with the help of the US military, intent on going on the offense, but no battle plan survives contact with the enemy...particularly not when that enemy is General Zan-Tar.

Get ready to experience two more origin stories in the Backyard Starship universe.

Noah Gantz and Kayan's crew finally brought the Taliz swarm to the negotiating table and ushered in a new era Tytondom. It would be time to kick back and relax if a group of diplomats hadn't just been kidnapped. The Altion, Hellenger, Walen, and Gleam people want their VIPs back, and they want answers.

The recon by fire mission seemed like a good idea, but things immediately went sideways when the Terran fleet attacked the picket cruiser waiting for them in the first system. The advance then stalled completely when their returning fighters were captured by the Cowlees. Forced to focus on the Shirgan system rather than continuing on toward the Cowlee homeworld of Gsstow, the Terran fleet—barely—survived a string of pyrrhic victories as it sought to enforce its will.

James Sutton was an average guy—he couldn’t afford college and didn’t really know what he wanted to do with his life. But when his sister Holly goes missing, he finds out he’s been living in a fantasy: An alien really did land in Roswell and the US has had a secret alliance with them ever since. They are symbiotes—capable of bonding with hosts, enhancing their strength, agility, and stamina. Now mankind finds itself in the middle of an alien civil war between two symbiote factions—those who would be our allies…and those who would subjugate us into slavery.

Only one world in the cluster remains in enemy hands. Admiral Jack Romanoff and his crew have one remaining nut to crack before they can turn their attention to the people that overthrew the Confederation. The Vesuvius system has become a fortress, so it won’t be an easy fight, but it is one they cannot lose and survive. When force alone won’t do the trick, add guile.

Admiral Jack Romanoff and his crew have defeated the Locusts once and for all, but they are far from the only invaders infesting the Confederation. The time to go after the xenophobic Novarites and free those worlds has come, and nothing will stand in his way.

The Tyton people need a champion, and it won’t be a king or an emperor. When the greatest warriors of Tytondom gather to liberate the lost homeworld known as Zal-tytos, Noah and Kayan’s crew must heal wounds that are thousands of years old. Can they solve the mystery of the planet and fight off swarms of genetically altered monsters? This will either be the end of all Tytons, or the start of a true armistice with the Taliz Grand Consortium.

Although Will Johnson and the Sutton siblings didn't gain as big an edge as they had hoped by attacking the Cowlee fleet in the Salchan system, they successfully captured an enemy cruiser and returned with a new ally in their fight against the Cowlees. They also returned with an opportunity—having destroyed most of the enemy battle station in the Shirgan system, the way was open into Cowlee territory, where a blitzkrieg attack might throw the Cowlees off balance and keep them away from Earth for a while longer.

Cole Riker ist ein freier Mann.Oder zumindest nahe genug dran. Die Last seiner Vergangenheit, die drohte ihn für den Rest seiner Tage zu kontrollieren, lastet nicht mehr auf ihm. Dazu musste er nur eine unbekannte außerirdische Lebensform finden und sich bereit erklären, sie zu ihrer Heimatwelt zurückzubringen.

As more and more special operators are resurrected with their mycelia and joining the Undead, the powers that be begin to "borrow" the Marines for missions beyond their stated scope. Particularly galling to Sergeant Paxton Alejo is when they're assigned a mission against supposed human traitors, especially when the reek of politics belies the integrity of the missions.

As a coalition of species and planets fights to unseat the Imperium, Will, the only human on the Coalition War Council, is put forward as an unlikely poster boy for galactic harmony. His unremarkable home world and its unimportant species—humans—have come to the aid of a greater galaxy they didn't even know existed. With each battle won, breaking the shackles of the Imperium seems not only possible but inevitable… until old grievances and simmering rivalries spring up among the Coalition.
