BANGKOK, MARCH 2018. The world looked on in horror as millions of innocent lives were snuffed out in a matter of hours. Countless men, women and children slaughtered without mercy, torn apart by a violent mob that attacked without reason, motive or warning.

Tom Freeman saw the aftermath. He reported on the tragedy and looked into the eyes of the sole survivor, and what he saw looking back sent him running home to the United States. Back to safety. Back to a place where the world makes sense, and the putrid stink of the dead doesn't haunt his nightmares.

He didn't run quickly enough. They're coming.

Remain indoors...

Gather supplies...

Find a weapon...

They're here.

A warrior never questions when his fated's life is in danger...

Kerven has served his duty proudly. General Braen has offered him a command and the experienced warrior is ready to tackle it without question. The only thing that could make him falter in his actions is... well, what if the right woman is at the wrong place at the right time? Isn't that enough to make a warrior question his duty?

Paula Allen has been sent to Jumel, and there she will remain. At least until her mission is done and the cure for a deadly virus is attained. The trouble with that? Oh, just a war with an alien race that won't back down, blocking access to the cure.

And the Brion warrior who has decided that she's the one isn't helping either. Now, if he wasn't so damnably hot and convincing, maybe focusing on the fate of the universe could be easier...

Alien Warrior's Challenge is a novella set in the Brion universe. It can and should be read as a standalone, though some of the characters are first introduced earlier in the series. If you like your hero Alpha as hell and your heroines brave, bbw and willing to fight for what is right, then this is the book for you!

Red Team Alpha. An elite military unit. Twenty highly-trained veteran warriors, Mars’ best. They are ready to face whatever dangers threaten the Confederation. They are capable, dedicated, armed with the best technology Mars has to offer. And they don’t exist, at least not officially.

Now the team will be called upon to face its greatest test. On a planet in a newly-discovered system there is a mysterious wreck, the remains of an ancient ship. The discovery is a momentous one, first contact and proof that mankind is not alone in the universe.

It is a job for the Team, but even these crack soldiers will be tested to the limit of their abilities as they uncover the dark horror within, a technological nightmare that threatens the very future of humanity. The soldiers of Alpha will fight, ignoring the odds as usual, but this time they will be caught between two enemies.

For they are not the only ones who know about the ruins. Even now, the notorious Gavin Stark and his Alliance Intelligence forces are on the move, seeking to seize the ancient vessel and the priceless technology within for their own purposes. And they are ready to do whatever is necessary to gain the priceless ship…including wiping out Red Team Alpha completely.

One hand of cards and it's all over but the crying...

Cass Kennedy finally gets what she's been dreaming of for the past ten years: a drifter ship to call her own. All the sim time and battle training is going to pay off in spades as she sets her course for the future. She'll be living on her own terms, not those of her father.

But drifting through deep space with a crew of nutty strangers on the DS Anarchy carries a lot more surprises than she bargained for. Nobody told her that her ship is falling apart, that dead chickens are something you really want to hang on to, and that the OSG has big plans for the universe that don't necessarily jibe with her plans for herself.

Jump onboard with Cass and her crew as she charts a course toward an alliance that will either make her or break her as Captain of the DS Anarchy.

Something has gone terribly wrong in transit.
Pioneers looking for a new start were selected to escape a dying earth, and travel to a far off colony in cryogenic sleep, but something has gone wrong.
After the crash landing on a remote planet nearly kills the crew, Adam the pilot must work to save the survivors, among them Tricia the only woman he has ever cared for. Searching the sand-covered planet, it becomes clear that they are far from safe.
If the burning sun, scouring storms or violent inhabitants hunting them does not finish the dwindling group, the luring call of an unknown voice promises them safety. With each step mysterious forces follow at the periphery urging their demise.
The true danger may be their own human nature as supplies dwindle, and exhaustion sets in.
Will they overcome their baser instincts and survive ... or succumb to them and perish?

Change, they say, is inevitable but if you're a time-traveler, change can be catastrophic.

Sean Kelly is thrilled when his multiple-great grandson gives him the opportunity to hang out with his own teenage dad and his 'far out' friends in 1969. (Although the sleepy town of Mercer, Iowa is a far cry from Haight-Ashbury.)

The local 'oldsters' aren't 'hip' to the younger generation's long hair and wild music, especially the town cop, causing Sean to experience some unexpected culture clash.

Time Travel rules get tested when Sean develops feelings for his dad's 'groovy' gal-pal, and he faces a life-or-death decision that could have huge repercussions when he returns to 1995.

Will Sean's ever-logical descendant regret bringing him into Jonathan Kelly's wannabe flower-child world, or will Peace, Love, and Understanding prevail in the end?

The soul of humanity can not be ignored.

Fenesia Thornbark lives a privileged life because she belongs to a group of people called Purestkind, considered by an autocratic society to be the purest and highest form of humanity. However, her life is shattered with one fetal mistake, but allows her to see her world for what it really is: truths become lies. Lies turns to hate. And hate to an uprising and death.
When the Purest, an autocratic government, embarks on subjecting groups of people to unspeakable horrors because they see them as lesser people, the unexpected happens: some of their own kind turns against them.
Fenesia and the rest of her family are marked as traitors. The Purest kills her parents. Destroy her home. Bound her in chains. But...in spite of it all, they fail to break her. And now she'll make them beg for death.

A freak landslide at a remote mine site uncovers a strange machine to Barry’s group of paleontology students. Wary of corrupt school officials, his team takes the machine home to study it in secret, reaching only one realistic - and unbelievable - conclusion: It was designed to bridge the time-space continuum. It’s a time machine.

Testing delivers disastrous results, sending one team member to the hospital and nearly killing another. When word leaks about the discovery, the ultimate power struggle ensues: the university wants it for funding, the power company wants its energy regenerating abilities kept under wraps, and a rival group wants to steal it for themselves. No one cares if Barry's team comes out alive.

Fleeing for their lives, the students must fight the school, the police, and each other if they want to learn the truth about what they've discovered - a truth with more severe consequences than any of them can predict.

The homecoming was short lived. Some might conclude that four ships, three women and an unruly teenage daughter would constitute a happy ending. But dangerous forces still move in circles around Benjamin, his family and friends. Word had arrived foretelling the prospects for peace and a first job for the fledgling Reaper Inc. Family in tow, locked and loaded, they leave for parts unknown to aid in securing peace and safety for the people of the Colonial Alliance. But when someone is out to kill you or eat you, making it there alive might be all you could hope for.
