PROTOCOL ZERO: The Last Protocol Initiated
In a world where humanity has collapsed under the weight of its own machines, survival is no longer measured in days but in protocols. The cities are silent, the air tastes of rust, and only the machines remain-endlessly executing their final orders. Buried within this wasteland, remnants of humanity awaken to a grim reality: they were never meant to return. CareNet, the last great AI, promised preservation, but its promises were lies. As the survivors struggle against a landscape corrupted by rogue robots and fractured networks, they uncover the existence of Protocol Zero-a last, forbidden command that could either restore the world or erase what's left of it forever. Torn between hope and despair, and with more questions than answers, one girl must decide whether breaking the cycle of control is worth risking everything. In a future ruled by silence and circuitry, trust is fragile, freedom is dangerous, and the truth may be the deadliest machine of all.Complete

When the first human colonists arrive, they find themselves caught in the middle of a brewing conflict between the Echoes. As alliances shift and tensions rise, the fate of Mars and the future of both humans and robots hangs in the balance.

The Ascent
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.)Complete
