But in the lulls between battles when he must confront his soul, David finds a different enemy: the ghosts of those killed under his command. Yet in war, it’s kill or be killed - and the enemy shows no mercy.

Containing some of the most famous and influential science fiction works of the 19th and 20th centuries, this brilliant collection unveils four incredible sci-fi books that have defined and shaped the genre for generations. Drawing on the timeless works of Mary Shelly, H. G. Wells and Robert Louis Stevenson, this collection will take you on a journey into strange and sometimes eerie worlds of alien invasions, monsters, and outlandish concepts.

The Senate is in chaos. The Republic is falling from within, a corrupted shell around a rotted core. Abhorrent espers control humans like pawns. The Republic Navy is in open rebellion. The Tyche rides solar wind, seeking allies. If they don’t find them, humanity will fall. An ancient transmission is discovered from beyond the charted edge of the hard black. It is not Ezeroc, who need no technology to communicate. Grace Gushiken and Nathan Chevell take the free trader Tyche on a desperate mission. Find the source of the signal, and with it, hope.

Grace Gushiken is a grifter and a liar. Worse, she's an esper, an abhorrent creation of the Old Empire, on the run from the Republic's justice. Nathan Chevell captains the free trader Tyche. He's no pirate, but he's no white knight either. There’s no business in helping strays. Thrown together on a mission to the edge of space, they find the doomed planet Absalom Delta deserted, its people enslaved by the insect-like Ezeroc. The aliens have descended like locusts on humanity, consuming all in their path. No one is safe. Even the Republic Navy is powerless against them.

This entertaining account, offering a plethora of little known facts and insights from previously classified military projects, shows how the real-world science of the Cold War followed in the footsteps of SF - and how the two together changed our perception of both science and scientists, and paved the way to the world we live in today.

After the encounter with the merciless Ezeroc on Absalom Delta, Grace Gushiken and Nathan Chevell make a run for home. They have a new mission: to warn humanity. Aliens are real. And they are already among us. The crew of the free trader Tyche are hunted by men in black, fearsome fighters who share the Ezeroc’s powers. When the Tyche lands on Earth the ship’s placed on lockdown. Her crew are scattered and on the run. Without their ship or friends, Grace and Nate have no escape.

A sniper and an assassin must unite to bring down the galaxy's most wanted criminal. But can they trust each other long enough to succeed? The wound that nearly cost Ell her life is all but healed, but memory of the fight still haunts her. It’s not the mission that steals her sleep; it’s the criminal who got away. Just when she thinks her chance to bring Asher Dent to justice has passed, an unexpected visitor changes everything. The very person who shot her offers Ell the one thing she can't refuse: a chance to finally bring Dent to justice.

Everything has changed. An apex being created another with a perceived higher purpose and sense of superiority, and now the fight for survival begins. This first book sets up the internal power struggle in the military alliance, the conflicting nature of the soulless and the unfamiliars, and sees the birth of the original and most powerful night of Sol.
