The twelfth novel in The Shadow Wars.

Eric Starck is a man adrift. After fighting in the Systems Wars that ravaged the galaxy, he's spent the past three years drifting from one job to the next, never quite feeling comfortable. The latest in a long line of jobs is at least seeming like it might be a career he can attach to. Search & Rescue. His job is to fly through the deeper regions of space and offer assistance to any and all who need it.

Everything is about to get thrown out the airlock, however, as he and his crew pick up a seemingly simple distress call from an isolated, asteroid-based service and repair station. The deep space equivalent of a lone truck stop. As they arrive, they find the facility in terrible shape, the inhabitants brutalized, and quickly become trapped in a truly isolated situation with a group of vicious, blood-thirsty alien creatures that seem to want nothing more than to brutally murder them all...All Rights Reserved

Ceaseless✔️ by Obsidian_Thirteen

With no one else able to take the job, Allan is put in charge of another Investigation Squad that just lost their Sergeant.

Quarantine✔️ by Obsidian_Thirteen

The eighth novel in The Shadow Wars. After the events of Ceaseless and Snowblind, Allan Gray, formerly a member of Security-Investigations, now a Specialist in Special Operations, is having some trouble keeping sane. He experiences sudden tremors, inexplicable terrors, and is incapable of removing his suit of power armor, even for something as simple as a shower. He knows something is wrong, but refuses to let anyone else into his life. All he wants is to keep doing his job, keep running missions and bury his head in responsibility so that he doesn't have to put up with his own problems. So when Hawkins comes to him with another dangerous job, he leaps at the opportunity. Allan's new objective seems simple, on the surface: investigate a Rogue Ops ship found adrift in space. Intel is low, no one has any idea what happened to the ship or even what it was doing, but an opportunity to seize crucial data on the enemy is too good to pass up. Allan and a small team of experts are rushed out to the isolated vessel. Upon arrival, the mission goes bad and Allan finds himself trapped on a Rogue Ops ship, facing down an enemy more insidious, more lethal than any he's ever encountered before...

Kingdom Hearts: Alien by mickol93

12th adventure. The heroes are now flying through space. They've traveled into the future, and continue flying through space. They get lost, until they come to a ship known as the Nostromo. They dock their ship inside, and they meet the crew, who have received a distress signal from a nearby planet. After going down into the planet to check it out, they brought something back with them on the ship. A dangerous and deadly alien. They need to work together in order to beat it. And they'd better not call for help, because, in space, no one can hear you scream. Rated M for gore, blood, violence, and minor language, but no cuss or curse words. I do not own any of these.
