Space Colony

When humanity’s first deep-space colonists touched down on their new planet, they had no idea it was the birthplace of a hostile alien species. After enduring numerous attacks, the survivors realize the aliens are about to get their revenge by invading Earth. The colonists build a starship to journey to the homeworld and warn the inhabitants of the impending war.

Zero is just one of 20,000 people aboard a spaceship bound for a new planet set to be colonized. The journey is over a century long but luckily, everyone is in stasis, so they’ll be safe and sound asleep during the trip. Everyone that is, except for Zero, whose pod has malfunctioned, waking him up a hundred years early. His initial excitement in roaming the ship alone quickly turns to a heart-stopping interstellar adventure when a family of space pirates show up, trying to hijack the ship and take the colonizers hostage.

Retired from his fighting days, John Perry is now village ombudsman for a human colony on distant Huckleberry. With his wife, former Special Forces warrior Jane Sagan, he farms several acres, adjudicates local disputes, and enjoys watching his adopted daughter grow up. That is, until his and Jane's past reaches out to bring them back into the game — as leaders of a new human colony, to be peopled by settlers from all the major human worlds, for a deep political purpose that will put Perry and Sagan back in the thick of interstellar politics, betrayal, and war.

Zero, Nyx, and the other Pathfinder colonists have adjusted to life on Kaguya. But Earth has built much faster starships-the Dreamcatcher arrives 10 years early, and the Stargazer arrives so early it actually got there before the Pathfinder did! Now the Stargazer is a lost shipwreck, and the race is on to find it, and who should show up looking for it but Nyx's dangerous family: Big Mama, Jim, and Kratt. Nyx and Zero will face kidnappers, pirates, shipwrecks, warlords, dragons, and maybe a new ally or two on their way to save the day once again.

After nearly two hundred years space travel, humanity's first deep space colony expedition has arrived at its new home. Ethan, the descendant of six generations who lived and died aboard ship, treads on soil and feels the wind and rain for the first time. But the new planet is not the paradise the scientists predicted. Alien predators lurk beyond the camps perimeter, and stowaway saboteurs are determined no one will survive. Tensions in the new colony rise, and Ethan must fight to preserve the last hope of humankind.

How can a colony on Mars survive when the greatest danger on the planet is humanity itself. All contact is lost with the first human colony on Mars during a long, intense sandstorm. Satellite imagery of the aftermath shows extensive damage to the facility, and the fifty-four colonists who called it home are presumed dead. Three years later, a new mission sets down on the planet surface to investigate what remains of the derelict site.

When humanity’s first deep space colonists touched down on the new planet, they had no idea it was the birthplace of a hostile alien species. After enduring numerous attacks, the survivors realize the aliens are about to enact their revenge by invading Earth. General Cherry Lindstrom commissions the building of a starship to carry a select band of colonists to the home world and warn the inhabitants of the impending war. Generations have passed since the original colony ship departed.

The crew of the Sirocco has made it back to Concordia—only to find the Scythians got there before them. Their planet has been invaded, the human population has been enslaved, and the fight for freedom seems hopeless. But that doesn’t stop the Concordians from trying.

When half of mankind revolts and demands more opportunity, those at the top decide on a compromise: They will build the first colony ships and allow the rest to discover new worlds and start over. Twelve ships are built. The first is called the Orion. Many are eager to go, but only 100,000 are chosen for each vessel. Far from Earth, a new life awaits, and it promises the prosperity they've always wanted. But still, resistance stirs.

All that remains of human civilization is a fledgling colony on Concordia, a planet light years from Earth. Infighting and disaster dogged the colony’s earliest days, but through the determination and bravery of a few individuals, the remnants of humankind have clung to existence. One of the grittiest of these characters is Cherry Lindstrom. A farmer turned freedom fighter, she helped to lead the generational colonists’ rebellion. Now she must travel to the Galactic Assembly and persuade the leading powers to accept humans into their alliance.

In the not-too-distant future, a 21-member crew launches from Earth. Their mission: to establish a temporary colony on Mars. Little do they know that colony will become permanent–and the last stand of the human race. Because, without warning, every single person left on Earth simply...vanishes. Now, a thousand years later, the resources needed to sustain life are running out, and the very existence of the Mars colony is threatened. Humankind has only one option–to return to its home planet.

Fleeing Earth after an alien invasion, the human race stands on the threshold of evolution. Their new home is Luna, a moon colony blessed with creature comforts, prolonged lifespans, digital memories, and instant sex changes. But the people of Luna are bored, restless, suicidal - and so is the computer that monitors their existence.

Paradise-1. Earth’s first deep space colony. For thousands of people, it was an opportunity for a new life. Until it went dark. No communication has been received from the colony for months. And it falls to Firewatch inspector Alexandra Petrova and the crew of the Artemis to investigate. What they find is more horrifying than anything they could have imagined.

We fought the invading New Men to a standstill and defeated the alien destroyer sent to obliterate Earth. The worst should be over, but it's not. Perfect android replicas are impersonating high-level officials so trust is failing. Worse, the New Men have found allies with an impenetrable stealth technology. This time, however, Earth is going on the offensive. Admiral Fletcher is headed to C Quadrant with a Grand Fleet. He's to liberate the captured planets and find the enemy homeworld.

When the Concordian colonists finally reached Earth after years lost in space, they expected a short visit. All they needed was bio-material to reseed their world. What they hadn’t anticipated was the arrival of the Scythians. They learn the deadly aliens attacked the planet once before, devastating the burgeoning civilization. Now they’re here to stay. Earth is weak. Humanity has barely begun to climb back to its previous level of development. The Concordians face a terrible choice: stick around and help in the effort to repel the invasion, or return home and save Concordia.

Being blindsided is never easy, even when you’re on the right track. Experimenting with technology that stretches our understanding of the universe, Connor and a small group of survivors find themselves stranded on a ship far beyond known space. The answers they seek may lie in a distant star system, but Connor is about to find out that not all encounters are by chance.

Fighting for freedom from galactic tyranny, General Cherry Lindstrom is responsible for the defense of the colony world, Concordia. This last outpost of human civilization lives under constant threat of attack from hostile aliens who claim the planet as their own. But decades have passed since the last assault, and the colonists have grown complacent. Thanks to the effects of time dilation, only Cherry and a handful of others remember the devastation wreaked on Concordia previously.

General Cherry Lindstrom made a decision that killed millions of a friendly alien species and threatens the future of humanity. A deadly poison is creeping across the surface of her planet, but the allies of humanity won’t reach Concordia in time to mount a rescue. While the scientists battle to find a way to neutralize the lethal toxin, Cherry is chasing down another threat: an enigmatic visitor who arrived just prior to the chemical attack. Her guts tell her the new arrival is up to no good, but others think she’s wrong.

Governor Antony Lemkin has done the unthinkable as a politician--voluntarily stepping down from his post in protest of Earth's escalating war with the Aryshans. With war drums beating and the machinery of government going full force, there's little he can do to but voice his dissent, until mega-industrialist Fabio DePino presents him with a plan: build a new Earth, far away from humanity's conflicts.

July 25, 2234: The crew of the Adamura discovers the Anomaly. On the seemingly uninhabited planet Talos VII:a circular pit, 50 kilometers wide. Its curve not of nature, but design. Now, a small team must land and journey on foot across the surface to learn who built the hole and why. But they all carry the burdens of lives carved out on disparate colonies in the cruel cold of space. For some the mission is the dream of the lifetime, for others a risk not worth taking, and for one it is a desperate attempt to find meaning in an uncaring universe.
