Space Warfare Fiction

Maryn Alessi retired from mercenary service after her last assignment went horribly sideways and settled down on a quiet planet with the love of her life. Unexpectedly widowed, Maryn must fulfill a promise to return her mate’s ashes to zer home planet for funeral rites, but a brutal civil war has destabilized space travel.

One hundred years before Ender's Game, the aliens arrived on Earth with fire and death. Earth Afire by Orson Scott Card and Aaron Johnston is the story of the First Formic War. Victor Delgado beat the alien ship to Earth, but just barely. Not soon enough to convince skeptical governments that there was a threat. They didn't believe that until space stations and ships and colonies went up in sudden flame. And when that happened, only Mazer Rackham and the Mobile Operations Police could move fast enough to meet the threat.

For years, Rafi Delarua saw his family suffer under his father's unethical use of psionic power. Now the government has Rafi under close watch but, hating their crude attempts to analyse his brain, he escapes to the planet Punartam, where his abilities are the norm, not the exception. Punartam is also the centre for his favourite sport, wallrunning - and thanks to his best friend, he has found a way to train with the elite. But Rafi soon realises he's playing quite a different game, for the galaxy is changing; unrest is spreading and the Zhinuvian cartels are plotting.

An enormous army of mysterious supernatural Leviathan is marching across the galaxies taking entire planets captive. Lonan, a brilliant young engineer of the planet Helion, seeks out the Seberians, a small force of humans who are the only warriors capable of defeating the Leviathan. The Seberian leader, Armon, informs Lonan of the immense demonic power behind the Leviathan pawns and of the battle that has raged for millennia in a hidden spirit realm. The people of Helion and the Seberians are about to experience the sinister plot of Satan, the chief of all demons....

The Metal Legion is committed to saving all, but when a battle makes them traitors and enemies, they'll have to bet everything they have to win the freedom of all humanity.

The Metal Legion faces its most difficult mission to date when they're thrust into a multi-species battle for power and have to combat enemies from the air, ice, and space.

The Pearl. A smooth round ball of a planet with an ocean hiding a secret. The water is near boiling, and the Jemmin don’t want the Vorr or the Terrans to find what’s hidden in the depths. What would make it worth it for the Jemmin to commit overwhelming forces to this out-of-the-way system? And they aren’t the only ones bringing max firepower to the game. The Metal Legion gears up for what they expect to be a pitched battle against a determined defense.

Taking the battle deep into Arh’Kel territory, Colonel Jenkins, Major Xi Bao, and the newly promoted Captain Podsednik are challenged both in space and on the ground. Can they gain superiority in orbit while Legion mechs are landside? Can heavy metal win the ground? Working together. Fighting separately. Losing means losing the war. Win the battle. Win the prize. Humanity is poised to take its place as the leader of all races. Everything hinges on the Metalheads in their mechs.

The Metal Legion is tasked with what was supposed to be an easy mission, but when aliens get in the way, they'll have to fight them to save a colony of humans.
