When Empires Meet
The world is rapidly changing. On Earth, geopolitical tensions rise to a breaking point, with nations poised on the edge of catastrophic conflict. But far beyond the planet's atmosphere, a different war rages-one that spans the vastness of space. In the depths of the galaxy, two great powers collide in a brutal, unending war. Their fleets clash in distant systems and barren asteroid fields, fighting for dominance over resources and territory. This is a war of empires, driven by ambition and desperation, where survival comes at a cost few can bear. For now, Earth's struggles and the galactic conflict remain separate, their paths unknowingly intertwined. But the threads of fate are drawing tighter, and the actions of soldiers, leaders, and nations on both sides are on a collision course. When these two worlds meet, the consequences will reshape not just one, but the future of all. "When Empires Meet" is a sweeping tale of ambition, survival, and the interwoven destinies of two wars waged across vastly different scales. As the battles rage on, the choices made in the heat of conflict will echo far beyond the battlefield-binding two worlds together in ways no one could have imagined.

WARLORDS OF ANDROMEDA
Three hundred years after Earth’s sentient internet takes the planet into Singularity—and out of spacetime—to avoid a sun going supernova ahead of schedule, the fleeing Martian colonists have found another kind of liberation. Using space warping ships they spread their seed across Andromeda. But if Frakas, the genius bioengineer who created a new Cambrian explosion of humanoid life, and the first of the hundred year men, clones designed to uplift souls, were enough to see them through the first leg of their journey, they are not around to be leaned on anymore. So begins the second trilogy of The Hundred Year Men saga, WARLORDS OF ANDROMEDA, and the reign of Dargan, the second clone. But will the ingenious tactics of Dargan’s warlords be enough to unseat the powers threatening the empire from within as well as from without? Or will these highly evolved humanoid species merely use their genetic and cybernetic enhancements to make better war on a scale never before imagined, using imaginative methods only such technological breakthroughs—not to mention sprawling space armadas—could accommodate? --------------------------- note: the three separate trilogies comprising the Hundred Year Men saga do not have to be read in order.Complete

Illiya - Taylor Neeran Chronicles #1
A.D. 3485 Missing out on the next semester of university was the least of my problems. Getting stuck on an alien planet was infinitely worse. It could have happened to anyone, really.

There are probably good reasons for that, but, well - the captain of the ship was my absentee mother, and an exception was made. I was supposed to have two whole months to get to know her better while I sharpened my Xenobiology skills in a verdant paradise. With any luck, I would graduate early. Then I messed up, big-time. Now I'm lost, alone and struggling to survive, stranded ten thousand light-years from home.Complete

Power struggles and unequal rights have made interplanetary war all but inevitable.
