After getting shot down over Tau Ceti, Uplink Squadron commanding officer Lance Baker has come to the realization that Earth is fighting for the wrong side in the ongoing galactic war.

Renegat nigdy się nie poddaje. Po tym jak udało im się umknąć zarówno Unii, jak i Imperium Sarkonijskiemu, Jace i jego załoga lecą dalej na poszukiwanie Ziemi. Jace wierzy, że z pomocą Tytana, ich nowej bazy operacyjnej, może się to udać. To znaczy jeśli okażą się szybsi niż dwie depczące im po piętach armie i jeśli jakimś cudem przeżyją w galaktyce, która pragnie ich śmierci. Nie można tego nazwać bułką z masłem.

After deserting the Sarkonian Empire and stealing one of their best stealth ships, Alyss Cortez and Farah Shahi knew it would be like this. Always looking over their shoulder for a far-reaching enemy. But they aren't running or hiding.

A joint task force of humans and synthetic intelligences (SIs) has defeated the Overlord’s Fleet Twenty-Seven, and peace reigns throughout the region surrounding Earth...for now. But the Overlords are sure to return once they find out their fleet was destroyed, and they’ll be back with a strong enough force to ensure the Terrans don’t win a second time.

Betrayed from within by a rogue Synthetic Intelligence, the alliance has been fractured and is on the run. The Sontags have retreated to defend their homeworld, the Kardonians have lost theirs, and a Legastian fleet advances on Earth, with little to stop it but a couple untested airwings. Meanwhile, two enemy cruisers continue to chase Lance Baker. Sent by the Legastian queen, they won’t stop until he’s been destroyed.

When a ruthless crime syndicate takes over a declining neighborhood on Razik-doom, Lieutenant Benjamin “Breaker” Wrath is sent to lead a multi-jurisdictional task force. The Razik Police Department does things just a tiny bit differently, and so do the local criminals. Some things never change, however. Extortion, kidnapping, and murder are the intergalactic languages of lawless bullies, and Breaker knows exactly how far he’ll go to protect the innocent.

The allies could sneak a fleet behind enemy lines and destroy the infrastructure the Overlords were using to push them to the brink of existence. As long as the allied fleet didn’t get trapped and obliterated, everything would be great. But they got trapped and obliterated.

When Jace Hughes accepts a job to capture and transport a wanted criminal, he doesn’t expect any problems.

Turns out, the mark has powerful family, and they just happen to be the galaxy’s most famous Renegade. Now, Jace is forced to face off against one of his own in a battle for his life, but our boy didn’t come this far to get gunned down and fail.

Through skill, determination, and a good bit of luck, the allies were able to turn away the Overlord attack. Not only were they able to hold them off, but several of the enemy vessels have also been added to their fleet.

But the Legastians don’t know fear, and they were already beating the Overlords. Will the addition of the AIs help or hinder the alliance? The fighting at Surrapsis has shown the Legastians are willing to do whatever it takes—including kamikaze attacks—when necessary to win a battle. And, with only a little head start, they can quickly get a toehold on a planet that is both hard and costly to eradicate.
