High school. Basic Training. Government laboratory. Alien planet.
Maia Taylor does it all.
_
Aliens have come to Earth and they need help to fight their war. When Maia's draft number is called for the intergalactic army, she goes from high schooler to soldier. Transitioning from civilian to soldier is hard enough, but the intergalactic army requires more than push-ups from its soldiers. Maia and her comrades find themselves in increasing trouble as their bodies are forced to evolve and their minds struggle to wrap around the true scope of alien warfare.

Shadows of Empire (Cadicle Vol. 1-3: An Epic Space Opera)
A secret war. An empire in crisis. One final hope for victory. Wil Sietinen is driven by duty. Second-in-line to a preeminent family dynasty, the young noble would rather design starships than plot political schemes or battle strategies. But when Wil is kidnapped by a mysterious alien enemy, he discovers that a brutal interstellar war has been covertly waging for centuries-and only his unique telekinetic powers can end the conflict. Learning that he's the genetic endgame of a generations-long plan to win the war, Wil grapples with his daunting responsibility to become a leader with the skills needed for a decisive military victory. But when he realizes that the enemy isn't who he's been led to believe, Wil faces an impossible moral dilemma as the fate of two civilizations hangs in the balance. Caught between ruthless adversaries and unsure who to trust, can Wil build the right alliances to secure his galactic empire's future? This timeless space opera epic with adventure, telekinetic abilities, coming-of-age, romance, and intrigue will appeal to fans of Star Wars, Anne McCaffrey, Frank Herbert's Dune, and the Lensman series by E.E.
