Something is creeping through the systems, and a dark shadow has befallen cyberspace.
After Red rescued Ember from the clutches of her father, and almost died in the process, he is recuperating on New Elysium. Their moment of respite is brief, as a series of mysterious glitches soon spread throughout the systems of the colony, and a bounty is set on Ember's head for betraying her Neo-Tokyan heritage.
An unexpected reunion with a former friend turned enemy leaves Nova injured and grounded on New Elysium as well. As Amy embarks on a mad off-world quest to find a rare piece of hardware needed to save him, dragging Red along with her, Nova and Ember are left to deal with the fallout from the resurrection of an evil that several years ago, led to the Purge of all augments.

New Elysium: Breakout
When mechanized humans, known as "augs" fell prey to a whole new set of viruses aimed at controlling them, they were imprisoned out of fear. Anyone caught with any robotic implants were sent to the Helion prison complex, and purged from normal society. Even those who used to serve humanity. One such aug, Red, imprisoned for seven years in Helion dreams of escape. Initially recalled and stripped of his command of Aphelion, he dreams of escape which begins to shape into a reality when a new augment is dropped into the facility. One whose very identity would mean death from either side of the conflict.

I'm a Cyborg's Pet
After being banned for being too edgy, WE ARE BACK! Feisty, Jenny Banks lives a dystopian nightmare as a robot uprising run by dark AI (Artificial Intelligences) takes over the world. Captured and slave collared by robots, Jenny is sent to slave school and then sold to the notorious but mysterious cyborg called Lord Rockwood. Can she survive being 'up cycled' as a pet, encounters with feral Roombas, moronic human slave owners, fashion-conscious robots, vampire cyborg-etts, dangerously addictive perfumes dealt by rogue members of OneDirection and werewolf marines? With little more than a pair of stiletto heels, a smart ass slave collar, and a sassy wit, sharp enough to give you a paper cut, can Jenny hold on to her humanity long enough to bring out Rockwood's? With the extinction of humanity in the balance no pressure.🤖🤸♀️ Think, Terminator meets 12 years a slave ( @JuliaExplodes ) Warning: a PG13 Science Fiction dystopia including scenes of romance and satire.

Lunar Virus ✔️
Elodie's life changes at the turn of a doorknob when she is forced into joining a secret organization that claims to be protecting the Earth from aliens. But with every step she takes, she finds the organization, or the facility, as they call it, becoming more and more suspicious. When a mysterious death occurs, revealing a well-concealed secret, things quickly go downhill as humanity's future is placed on the shoulders of a single gaggle of teenagers. *** I hear a sigh from the other side of the door, "Miss. Chaucer, you have a wonderful opportunity here, are you going to take it or not?" Now, I am seriously confused, "Opportunity?" She takes advantage of my befuddled state and shoves the door open. Shit. The corners of her mouth pull up, and it's so unnatural, it takes me a moment to realize she's smiling. Major plastic surgery? Probably. Click. Did she just lock the door? She locked the door! I spring towards the house phone, dusty from years of doing absolutely nothing, so I can call the police. I don't make it. Halfway there, I trip on my own pant-leg and face plant on the floor. The woman steps over me and retrieves the phone. She looks at it as if it's a foreign object, "This won't be necessary. All I want to do is talk to you." For some reason, instead of screaming, I stay silent. She smiles and pulls out a chair from the kitchen table for me to sit on. When I don't sit, she says, "If you want to know what's going on, then sit." I think about it for a moment. She hasn't hurt me yet, and I have to admit, I am quite curious as to what's going on. So, call me stupid, but I sit down. "I am from a space organization that protects civilians from . . . outside threats." *** Beautiful cover made by @mahana258!

The Edge of Darkness
"I did not choose to become this way. This corrupted, innocent body. Who in their right mind would willingly choose this life?" Max is just one of thousands of unwilling cyborgs sent home after the interstellar war. With the threat of recycling haunting her every move, she can't even touch the only bright spot in her life: strong, handsome Ethan. Love means nothing to a cyborg - they're not even human. The robotics makes them incapable of love. They can not marry. They cannot raise children. So why does Max's heart race when she meets Ethan again on the long journey home? Why does his forbidden touch feel so good, and set her blood burning? And why are so many cyborgs recycled when they are otherwise healthy and able to perform their work? With the strange alien Authorities watching every move, Max uncovers a conspiracy bigger than the war than enslaved her in the first place. To find an escape from the horrific nightmare that her transport spaceship home has become, Max must race to find the answers and save the people she cares about, before her world and everything she knows is lost to darkness. The Edge of Darkness was first published in 2011 and is available in complete e-book form and paperback on both Smashwords and Amazon.

But with the one defining feature separating her from the rest- a single, luminescent, blue eye- she finds herself isolated from everything she has ever known, and dependent on a people she once considered far beneath her. ********** © 2017 AaPThomps all rights reserved.

[#WATTYS2018 LONGLIST] On Earth, a conspiracy theorist stumbles across the wreckage of a spacecraft. There are two corpses in strange uniforms. One is an alien - the other is not. In space, a young human agent watches in horror as the images are beamed around the world, putting the entire project to integrate humanity into the Commonwealth of Orion at risk. And across the darkness between stars, an alien armada gathers its forces, and aims them right at Earth. Deep in a cave on a remote island lies the key to everything; a small beacon containing the directions to the Hub, the crossroads of the Commonwealth. If the aliens find it and use it to access the Commonwealth's complex network of Starbridges linking its worlds together, the rest of the galaxy will be at their fingertips. Only one person knows where the beacon lies... ...for now.Complete
