Book 01 - Intrinsic:

Kalian Gaines has a secret; he just doesn’t know it yet. He looks like us, he lives like us…but he is not one of us.

Kalian knows nothing outside of his mundane life teaching history on 30th-century Earth, until a day like any other triggers a series of events that will tie his fate to that of humanity.

A human handprint, embedded into a rock with alien script, is discovered on a moon that mankind has never set foot on. This discovery holds a secret, which will sweep Kalian into the heart of a conspiracy that has corrupted the galaxy for 200,000 years.

Book 2 - Tempest:

Kalian Gaines and the remains of humanity are forced to forge a new beginning in a galaxy that doesn’t want them. After the Gomar wrought destruction across the Conclave, those taking refuge aboard the Gommarian are tainted by the same brush - humans are dangerous.

After a Conclave excavation unearths an object that predates even their ancient society, Kalian Gaines and Li’ara Ducarté are allowed off the Gommarian and asked to assist in an investigation that will take them deeper into the conspiracy of their origins.

Meanwhile, Roland North has escaped the confines of the Gommarian and taken up the life of a bounty hunter, causing more trouble for both the Conclave and humanity. Esabelle, the daughter of Savrick, is secretly tasked with using her unique Terran abilities to track Roland down before he does something they’ll all regret.

Set on different paths, these few will be thrown into the tempest of machinations planned out long before humanity learned to walk.

They are coming. They are hungry.

Book 3 - Heretic:

Now a man with nothing to lose, Kalian Gaines has chosen to travel through the Conclave’s new Starforge and explore what remains of the Terran Empire. This graveyard of worlds holds secrets long forgotten and better left alone, but regardless of the dangers, answers must be found and soon. The threat of the Vanguard looms over the entire Conclave. Its purpose is to pave the way for something worse, something ancient.

Kalian must adapt and evolve, or risk losing everything in humanity’s battle to not only survive those who seek their extinction, but also their place in the Conclave.

Roland North is carving a bloody trail across the criminal underworld, seeking his own answers. He refuses to believe that Li’ara is gone, and if he must maim, torture, and kill everyone connected to Protocorps to learn the truth, then he will.

The oldest beings in the known universe have traversed an ocean of stars for a singular purpose. War is coming and the harvest is inevitable. The only chance for hope has been discovered in the darkest corner of the galaxy, where at last, the heretic has been found.

Book 4 - Legacy:

And so it ends….

They wiped out humanity’s ancestors. They laid waste to the Terran Empire. They destroyed Earth. Now, they have come to harvest what remains.

The Conclave has been preparing for war, but no one guessed the scale of what waits on the edge of the galaxy.

Humanity’s battle for survival has spread across every world. The planet Evalan shelters the remnants, but too few remain to keep the enemy at bay.

Kalian Gaines can only see one way to win the war. If he chooses that path, will the cost of victory be too high?

With human and alien blood being spilled, Roland North is in his element. Might the fate of humanity rest on the kind of decision a natural-born scoundrel hates to make?
