Also in audiobook format! AbbyGoldsmith.com/majority ❉ ❉ ❉ ❉ ❉ The galaxy-spanning Torth Empire just suffered an unthinkable defeat. Now the Torth Majority clamors for better leadership: a commander who can outsmart Thomas. It's time for the Upward Governess to seize absolute power, cast off the laws which constricted her, and do whatever she can to prove her superiority over rebellious runaway slaves and human hybrids. Thomas's starship is adrift and starved for water and fuel. Ariock barely clings to life amidst rioting refugees. The Torth have unlimited weapons, slaves, planets, space armadas, and plenty of super-human soldiers ... but a rebel nation is being born. The refugees are primed for war. With Thomas at the helm of their nascent civilization, even the mightiest of Torth quake in fear. For the first time in Torth history, the rulers of the galaxy cannot feel sure of victory. ❉ ❉ ❉ ❉ ❉ Copyright © 2020 Abby Goldsmith. All rights reserved.

Connor is sick. Always has been, always will be. It's left him jaded and strapped for cash, but at least it's not bloodrot. He's still got his sanity. When an estranged family member offers him a lifetime supply of his meds for an itsy bitsy bit of exploring, however, Connor accepts and ventures out into the dark tunnels of Par-12. This is well outside the relative safety of the subterranean mega-city of Heart. And it's a stupid decision. Meanwhile, Tess - his pharmacist's little sister - finds herself in a pickle. This isn't too unusual, given her knack for sticking her nose where it doesn't belong. However, it is the first time she's been plucked from her home and dumped outside of Heart. And there are things out there in those dark, dark tunnels - things that were once people. Tess and Connor are not alone. *Content warning: occasional strong language and somewhat graphic descriptions of a poorly handled disease. **Special thanks to @RicBlow for the lovely cover art!

War looms on the horizon... After the colonization of Mars and Europa, it took us fewer than five generations to reach beyond our solar system and discover new planets capable of supporting human life. Too far away to be governed under Earth law, the Collective was formed. Several hundred years later, the Collective has expanded to a system of six worlds. Power struggles and unequal rights have made interplanetary war all but inevitable. With rebellions arising across the Collective, three captains launch near-suicidal missions to free the oppressed fringe and reset equality across the stars. A galactic war is coming, and only an arthritic mail runner and a space pirate can stop it.
