In a time long after Humans had taken to the stars, Vespera Malik was the captain of an exploration vessel. She wasn't known for her patience and had been in hot water more times than she could count. Still, she produced results. Unfortunately, this time the wrong people had been involved. No matter her past accomplishments, banishment was the best she could hope for.
What she wasn't counting on was for her banishment to take a turn for the worst. Things went to hell shortly after her arrival. Now, she is left with nothing more than the wreckage of her escape ship and a giant pain in the ass, a.k.a. Commander Gavin Porthos.
Somehow, she has to make sure they both survive until they are found. Being stranded was enough to deal with, but on top of that, the pair quickly find themselves unwillingly drawn into local issues that would have seemed impossible if they weren't there to witness them. How does a starship captain make sense of things like magic? And was that a dragon?

We Are All Mistakes
[Think of it as Star Trek: First Contact meets The US Office - one chapter per day] If your parents ever said you were a mistake, well... so were they. And so were their parents. And so on - all the way back to a failed cosmic experiment that eventually kick-started a species capable of inventing nuclear weapons, influencer culture, and reality TV. Now Earth is circling the drain, and the Galactic Union has finally noticed. Their plan? Patch things up by inducting us into the wider universe - with the help of a misfiring Steering Committee and one extremely confused human abductee: Duke Kramer. Volunteering for a NASA black-ops program was meant to give Duke a purpose - offering the magic of alien contact. Instead, he's stuck in deep space learning that humanity may not be worth saving. While back here his friends are in a race to find him - dodging Elon-esque tech moguls who believe the coming salvation is their sole divine right. A darkly funny sci-fi satire about alien bureaucracy, the mess we've made of society, and whether it's ever too late to fix ourselves.
The Daughter of the Goddess
PREVIEW 'That BITCH!' Oh, she was going to pay one way or another. I just need to get out of here, or wherever 'here' is. Calming down, I started to retrace my steps. I remembered that the ambulance came and I was rushed to the hospital. The doctors were anxious since they said I was losing a lot of blood. The last thing I heard was . . . 'The flat line sound of my heart stopping,' I recalled. I am... dead. The name's Lumeria, and just like you, I have no idea what the hell I'm doing here. (The character, not the author) Well, we shall see. Toodles!
Pegasus (Farside Saga Book Two)
"Are we alone?" That question has finally been answered, but the answer was much more than they expected. Testing a new form of interstellar travel called a Stardrive, the NSA Impala was sent to explore Pre-alpha, a new solar system discovered along the sight line of Alpha Centauri. A slight malfunction sent them just outside the edge of the Milky Way Galaxy into dead space. Returning home, they ran into an alien race known as the Velcronians. What started off as a comical first contact, ended up with the Impala being snatched into the Farside Galaxy. Now stuck in the middle of a galactic war on the verge of spilling into the entire universe, the Impala must find a way to stop it and make it back home....before they no longer have a home to go back to.

Cosmic Sentinel: a SCANT few
Abducted. Modified. Trapped aboard a dying alien ship. And he's the only one who can fly it. Cyrus finally worked up the nerve to leave his apartment... only to wake up light-years from Earth, on an ancient, half-dead starship filled with foul-mouthed Goblins who are just as confused-and just as kidnapped-as he is. The ship, known as the Cosmic Sentinel, has been dormant for thousands of years. Its systems are failing. Its original crew is long gone. And in a desperate bid to survive, it floods its new passengers with the SCANT-microscopic nanites that heal, enhance, and in Cyrus's case... change everything. He doesn't just communicate with the ship-he begins to merge with it. As alien threats gather and the clock ticks down, Cyrus is thrust into the role of reluctant pilot. But flying the ship means surrendering more of himself each time. And survival? That's not just about fixing engines-it's about earning trust, making impossible choices, and building a crew out of chaos. Can a human afraid to leave home become the heart of a starship? Can a pack of misfits become something more than passengers? Fans of The Expanse, Mass Effect, and Dungeon Crawler Carl will love this fast-paced, emotional sci-fi epic packed with sharp banter, big ideas, and unforgettable characters. Book One of the Cosmic Sentinel series.Completa

In fact, she learns that everything she holds dear on this magical planet is about to be wiped from existence. She just had to fight the Enemy- and lost a lot in the effort- and now she must immediately enter into battle once again!

Power Rangers Knights of the Galaxy: Beginnings
A year has passed since the Milky Way Galaxy was wiped out. Earth is a ghost of a memory. The Rangers survived, but the grief is a constant, heavy weight. They failed their world. Their survival is owed entirely to Delta, their former master. In his final, desperate act, he sacrificed everything, tearing half of humanity from the destruction and flinging them across the stars to his home world, Zeqa. This act of pure sacrifice is the debt they now live under. Settling on Zeqa is brutal. How do you "get over" the end of the world? Though they're surrounded by a strange, vibrant new environment, they're no longer the most important heroes; other saviors are stepping up. The Rangers live on, some trying to accept their diminished roles. But space doesn't care about a fresh start. The cosmos promises adventure on an unimaginable scale, but also danger they can't comprehend. Just as they start to find a foothold, they crash headlong into a nightmare: a lethal stranger with utterly blank motives. They are nearly killed, almost meeting the same fate as Earth and Delta. Then, when all seems lost, an extraterrestrial swoops in, saving them. This savior, however, has an agenda. They desperately need the Rangers' help to save their own world, Esperanza. The survivors of a doomed planet are now immediately dragged into the heart of the next impending disaster.
She Becomes A Passive Villainess-NOT!
Falling into the fiery hell she created must've been the perfect way for her to die.

They would then lead the people unto a prosperous era of peace. Just... Where?... Where did I go wrong? When I am reborn, will you please give me a simple life?Completa
