We’re finally ready to take the war back to the Hedalt. But they’re coming for us first, and in force. Yet the Hedalt Armada, led by High Provost Kagan, is far from our only problem. I am Captain Taylor Ray. On the eve of war, a new commander threatens to derail everything that Commander Sarah Sonner and I have fought for. While Sonner becomes locked in an internal power struggle, my unique crew and I must go rogue and take out the source of the Hedalt’s supremacy - the mysterious Nexus.

They think we’re beaten. They’re so wrong. I am Captain Taylor Ray. Still reeling from the revelations of the Hedalt threat, my new ally -Commander Sarah Sonner - and I must pull off a daring heist to steal a vital piece of black-market tech from a heavily-guarded Way Station. Without it we have no hope of putting the contingency fleet together and no hope of fighting back against the Hedalt.

The fleet is ready for war. Now we just need some crews.... I am Captain Taylor Ray. Against all odds, my team has outwitted murderous racketeers and evaded the sadistic Hedalt military leader, Provost Adra. But in order to recover the men and women we need to crew the Nimrod Fleet we must infiltrate enemy territory and execute an audacious raid. Success will require all our cunning and guile, pushing each of our unique skills to the limit. It won’t be easy, but what else is new? Worse still, Provost Adra is closing in.

Alex is a Glitch Hunter, member of a house of monster hunters that possess mysterious bracers allowing them to see the world with the interface of a video game. Even with the edge that offers, most Glitch Hunters die young, thrown by quests into areas of deadly conflict. Alex's first quest draws him to a city with a grisly past, and unless he can discern truth from lies in time, an even darker future.

The war for control of the multiverse is finally coming to a head. What started for Liam as a game has become for King Liam something far more personal, a fight for the home he has made for himself and those he cares for. This conclusion to the saga brings more of what has defined the Crucible Shard series, hard decisions and complex choices as the lines between hero, anti-hero, and villain blur even more.

King Liam has faced many foes since taking the throne, but this one is more personal than most. The God Veros is one of the artificial intelligences from Earth and has been hatching plans and building his base of power for a very long time. The struggle shall make all those involved rediscover who they truly are, and make hard choices for the days to come.

Liam is king of the world and things have never seemed darker. As the Crucible Shard takes on a new prominence in the larger Universe, this brings new opportunities and dangers greater than any he has yet faced. Earth, too, is moving into this larger world and under the control of the Artificial Intelligences it would be foolish to underestimate their ambition. When battle lines are drawn, what side shall Liam choose?

Becoming King of a virtual nation was just the start of Liam's problems. Unreliable allies fill his castle and skilled foes surround his lands on all sides. While the pirates on the coast have been dealt with, the former King of Galea has been raised from the dead and musters an army.

The Elves are invading Galea. With evil growing in the southern lands they have come to put an end to it by any means necessary. The forces of evil won't go down easily. Liam Ottani has learned many lessons since first logging into the crucible shard. Attacks must not go unanswered and one must strike where their enemy is weak.

Larry enjoyed raising cattle on his Kansas farm, until the aliens arrived. He couldn't help himself; he was going for a ride with aliens from outer space! The aliens wouldn't tell him where he was going, how long he would be gone, or if he was ever coming back, but a space trip sounded like more fun than beer and burgers at Benny's Been There and Done That Bar and Grill. He had to go. Larry's ride into deep space wasn't just a Sunday jaunt.

All pretenses of diplomacy have crumbled, and Concord is no longer considered neutral territory. The Imperator is coming, and he intends to reduce the station to dust, forcing Commander Reeves to order an emergency evacuation. But old enemies linger on in the background. Not only must Reeves contend with the Sa’Nerra, but a final showdown with the Lord of Night appears inevitable, and the crime kingpin will stop at nothing to get his revenge. Meanwhile, the Sa’Nerra have invaded Bastion Federation space with thousands of warships and near-unlimited reserves.

Finally possessing the ability to enter the Progenitors’ shadow realm, Commander Reeves and Major Kane embark on a daring mission into the heart of enemy territory. However, en route they must detour to the Quarr planet of Vroxxa, which is under Sa’Nerran occupation. There they will learn the true horrific purpose of the "atmosphere acclimators" the aliens have installed on dozens of worlds. They will also discover the sickening depth of the Sa’Nerran’s cruelty, forcing Reeves to again confront his dark side.
