The first eight novellas of Blaze Ward's Science Officer series collected together for the first time!

Despite the best efforts of both the Republic of Aquitaine Navy (RAN) and the Freiburg Empire, pirates remain a problem for smaller communities, away from the main starlanes. Due to Jessica Keller's success on her previous mission to cause problems for the Freiburg Empire, the head of the senate requests Jessica's assistance on a very special assignment: pirate hunting. What sort of mischief can Jessica and her crew cause in a backwater system? Particularly when given the full backing of the senate?

Jessica Keller has a reputation as a maverick commander. It almost got her court martialed. Now, it has gotten her a new command in an obscure sector, with orders to ignite a new front in the eternal war. But her old nemesis, Imperial Admiral Emmerich Wachturm, stands in her way. Worlds will fall before their feud ends, but only if she can forge her crew of strangers into a weapon. Otherwise, disaster looms.

Valentinian and his friends never imagined being trapped underground with their worst enemies - the Widow and her crew. Above-ground, an entire tribe of sex-crazed cannibal mutants rampages, coming for their souls. Enemies must make deals with each other, planning for the inevitable double and triple-crosses, as well as ferreting out the secrets of the long-forgotten vessel known as Princess Rualoh. Princess Rualoh - the sixth novel in the Shadow of the Dominion series - forges new deals and trickery between enemies as well as friends.

Valentinian won a treasure map in a crooked card game. Its call brings him back to the planet Kryuome. There, he and the crew must outsmart the locals, the mutants, as well as the Widow aboard her new warship, in order to uncover a secret two thousand years in the making. Or die trying.

Kryuome: the desert world on Valentinian's treasure map. A place where he hopes to find friends and surprises if his crew can survive the dangerous aliens of Wildspace, while the Widow tracks him and his crew mate. The next exciting installment of the Shadow of the Dominion series!

The Widow never rests. She takes the ship Dominion-427 across the galaxy to chase down her ex-husband and his friends. Athanasia and Glaxu duel on far-flung planets, and double-cross one another again and again, until someone dies. And Valentinian keeps running. Dominion-427 - the fourth novel in the Shadow of the Dominion series - puts friends in danger while continuing to explore this fascinating new galaxy of characters!

Valentinian and Dave have escaped the Dominion’s Internal Security Bureau. Now they’re fleeing for their lives, heading for systems outside of Dominion control, looking for a place where they can rebuild their lives. Figure out what comes next. Who they want to be, or to become. Hard Bargain - the second novel in the series, Shadow of the Dominion - takes you even further into Wildspace, human variants, and maybe even a crooked card game or two.

Valentinian just wants to make a living hauling cargo between planets and stations. His new charter promises to be profitable, hauling an all-girl band all over the Dominion. But trouble starts before they take off, and Valentinian has just hired a crewman with a shadowy past, big muscles, and the sort of military training that only the Dominator’s Elite Assault Cavalry wields. What else could possibly go wrong?

Two tiny lizardmen scientist-criminals power up their illegal wormhole generator, getting ready to kidnap their next victim by pulling the poor human across the galaxy in an instant, forever trapping him in the Accord of Souls. Maybe this human won’t destroy everything they love. The last human they kidnapped killed the big boss, took over their criminal gang, and now, threatens to conquer the entire galaxy. The problem? Despite being criminals, the human they want to kidnap is a cop. What could possibly go wrong?

The gods of the Accord of Souls return to judge humanity itself, and they intend on simply eradicating the species to make the galaxy a safer place. Gareth finally confronts his old enemy again, as well as the very gods of the Accord itself. Nothing will ever be the same for anyone. Trial of the Star Dragon is the fifth and final Star Dragon story - science fiction written with a 1950s pulp flair - and completes the adventures of the Star Dragon and the Accord constabulary in the galaxy where the gods are real, and angry.

Six-hundred-twenty-seven convictions later, the career criminals Morty and Xiomber have seen the light and joined the good guys. Gareth must go undercover to stop his nemesis from unleashing another crimewave across the Accord of Souls. While the leaders of the Accord of Souls send an agent to Earth to stop its top scientist before he can open the way for the rest of humanity to flood into the galaxy.

An alien impostor sneaks into the most secured facility in Earth Force, confronting Earth’s top scientist Royston with his worst nightmares. Gareth’s near death at the hands of the rogue androids fuels his rage to use the Star Dragon to pursuing justice, because somewhere, his ex-best friend continues to plot his conquest of everything. And in the shadows, a dark, ancient powers awaken.

A Vanir cop stares back when Gareth St. John Dankworth looks in a mirror these days. However, that will not stop him. He will happily embrace any cost to stop the man who was once his best friend in the solar system from conquering the galaxy. Even if it involves living the rest of his life as a Star Dragon. If crime never sleeps, justice will not either.

Icy cold revenge. The best kind. Unless it requires the purging fires instead. Javier owns the Land Leviathan. Now, the payoff. Javier and Zakhar’s retribution on Valko Slavkov challenges everyone to take sides: Walvisbaai Industrial, the Concord, and the Khatum of Altai. Worlds will fall and lives will be lost before Javier’s wrath.

The Science Officer has done the impossible and stolen the Last Flagship. With the help of his friends, Javier will take his private war to Valko Slavkov and the pirates with a theft so audacious, so brazen, nobody could predict it. And so big that the Concord itself takes a personal interest. Book seven in the Science Officer series and part one of the Hammerfield saga. To be concluded in The Hammerfield Payoff. Part of the Alexandria Station universe.

She disappeared more than 80 years ago. Lost forever to myth and legend like Excalibur tossed into the waters. When the Science Officer leads the crew to the last flagship of the Neu Berne fleet, they must risk awakening a sentient warship if they want to go after the man who destroyed Storm Gauntlet. Just how derelict is the last flagship? Could it be a trap as well? The Last Flagship may just be the most daring caper for Javier Aritza, Suvi, and the crew of Storm Gauntlet.

It seemed like a legitimate heist when someone hired Storm Gauntlet and her crew to go hijack some cargo. Pirate ships did that sort of thing. However, whoever hired them didn't count on the Science Officer's sneakiness. Paranoia. Whatever. The situation didn't make sense. No one would deliver cargo to a dead planet. It had to be a trap. Someone had set them up. But who? And why?

As Captain Navarre, the science officer rescued his greatest enemy and destroyed her captors. Now, someone else wants to hire the ruthless pirate Navarre, and Javier must take Sykora with him to help. Their mission? To raid the most luxurious starship in space: Shangdu, The Pleasure Dome.

When pirates commandeer Javier's starship, they give him a choice: corpse, slave, or volunteer. Javier chooses to survive as well as keep his honor and his sanity intact. However, when things get rough, will he save the pirates from someone even worse?
