Meet Zethea, a Zecorian warrior from another planet. All her life she has been told that the humans were responsible for the centuries long war resulting in many casualties. Her father wants her to become a strategist behind the lines, but her vengeance for blood makes her become a skilled killer on the front lines. Until she is left behind in the desolate jungle wasteland of a forgotten city, and finds herself having to become allies with a lone human soldier who didn't even want to be in the war in the first place. They soon discover a secret about the war, and realize that their whole lives were raised with lies. T+ because gore and violence. Maybe some romance later on but nothing close to fifty shades of NOPE. P.S: most of the artwork here is not mine, but I am in the the process of replacing some of it with my own artwork. Zethea's character design is made by me and is my intellectual property, all other images unless with the initials "TVS" signed on them are not mine, their rights go to their respective owners. If there is a copyright issue concerning any images within this book, then I will be happily able to remove/replace them upon request.

It was only supposed to be a minor military expedition and Kenneth Phon was only supposed to be an observer. But when the ambitions of powerful men turn to betrayal and murder, the largest human war fleet ever assembled finds itself leaderless and lost, thousands of light-years deep in the territory of a hostile alien empire. With the fleet surrounded and on the point of surrender, Kenneth Phon takes charge and leads them in their fight home through hundreds of enemy systems. The underachieving son of a wealthy shipbuilder, Ken must fight off more experienced commanders trying to undermine his authority and fractious mercenary ship captains who'd rather fight each other or turn pirate than cooperate. If he fails, not only will the fleet be destroyed, but the defenseless Earth will be sterilized by aliens bent on revenge. (Based on a true story.)

A child who has yet to draw his first breath becomes the obsession of an unknown entity; a powerful being who seeks to claim the thrones of both Heaven and Hell as its own and unleash Armageddon upon the mortal realm. Haunted by visions of its own undoing, this usurper will stop at nothing to eradicate the one responsible; this mortal child. Bishop, the Archwarrior, is declared the guardian of this unborn child, though he doesn't quite understand why he is tasked with such a role. But when forces rise from the depths of Hell, Bishop, along with his Warrior Angel siblings, quickly learn that this child is hunted by the usurper, who seeks not only the boy's death, but the demise of any who protect him. One fateful night, Max Harper's story begins. I would like to dedicate this book to my wife and son. Unfortunately this story is semi-true. My wife had five grand Mal seizures (I was driving when the first one occurred. Luckily we were only a few miles from a hospital) which led doctors on a course I was not ready to sail. She was put in a medically induced coma for five days. She pulled through with flying colors. My son was born at 1 lbs. 7 ounces. He spent a total of 112 days in the NICU, numerous surgeries. The amazing nurses and doctors making this rugged journey a little more easy to deal with. My son showed me strength I only thought existed in fairy tales. They were the inspiration for this story. I love you two endlessly.

After risking my life and freedom to save my family, nothing but terrible things have reigned my life. Wanted for my strength and power, I am sold to the humans. And not just any human, the King. You may ask why I talk about humans as if I am not one of them. That is because I am something very different. I come from a species known as Skin Walkers. Our race has inhabited the Earth much longer than any human. Myths and legends were told about us, mostly in the idea of werewolves. Humans were foolish to think that the only animal we could shift into was a wolf. Our race consists of any and every animal. You see, we each have one animal that is our other half. We are strong, fast, almost invincible. Except for one small weakness, one known to none other than the King. They call me the Shadow Assassin. For they never see me coming.

What if we were the first in our part of the galaxy to discover the secret of faster than light travel? What if this discovery was 10,000 years before it was supposed to be? Our neighbors had been watching for centuries and were surprised with our early arrival into the Web of Worlds... The Year is 2166: To the people of Earth, the universe seemed to be a very lonely place. Astronomers have discovered tens of thousands of planets; many had indications of organic life. SETI had been searching for signals for over 200 years. There had been a few tantalizing bits of radio or radar energy received but nothing ever proven to be of intelligent origin. But there was an alien civilization out there, in fact many of them linked together in a Web of Worlds. They were watching us quietly, carefully and patiently. It had long been the prime directive of the Web that no developing civilization be contacted until that civilization made it into interstellar space on their own; and that always took time, lots of time. Most Web worlds took 1,000 years or more to go from steam to the atom and none had made it from the atom to a sublight stardrive in less than 5,000 standard years. Every civilization of The Web had proven that faster than light travel was impossible, so there was plenty of time to watch the Earth... The watchers were astounded with the speed of progress of human science and also horrified at the periods of violence. By 2076 nuclear fusion power was widespread on earth. By 2100 the first interplanetary fusion ships explored the Sol system. The men and women of the Anglosphere Alliance began their first missions in ships approaching 0.1c. At that velocity, manned flight to even the nearest stars would take a lifetime. What would happen if a beautiful engineer and a brilliant physicist stumbled upon an artificial gravity field which would make a faster than light drive possible...

Like a phoenix, they arose. From the ashes of a world burnt by massive nuclear holocaust and frozen by a millennia of nuclear winter. They are the Fisted Races and they struggle against the tattered remnant of Humanity for what little resources are left on a battered Earth. Ryon, Tigris, Kanid and Pantor; all equally powerful in skill and cunning. And in their hatred of the human race that nearly destroyed the world with the Great Burn. But now an even greater power in the south was rising that threatened Fisted and Humans alike. Could they somehow put the bloodshed and horror of their history behind them and stand together against it? Because if they didn't, not only would Humanity and the Fisted die, but so would every living thing on the planet!
