The war between humans and aliens was over, but peace remained elusive. For living life in the DMZ between Terran and Gra'al space, things are mostly uneventful for Drake Rose and Captain Valencia Vasquez. The discovery of an abandoned alien child aboard a derelict freighter with its crew slaughtered changes everything. The fragile peace between two proud people is about to be tested and the ancient secrets hidden within the galaxy are waiting to explode. Drake finds himself the protector of not just the child, but life itself. All while Valencia is thrust into more power and responsibility than any human has ever possessed. The crew of the Trystero are the broken heroes no one expected. It's Firefly meets The Mandalorian in this coming of age space opera series. This bundle includes: Broken Ascension Fractured Sentinel Shattered Lineage *** The Trystero Collection: Books 1 - 3 is a collection of the first three novels in the Trystero science fiction adventure series. This ebook boxed set/collection has dashes of classic space opera scope with the action and adventure modern sci-fi readers love. It’s a book readers have said is parts Mandalorian, Firefly, and Hyperion. Follow Drake as he discovers his place in the galaxy, along with the captain, Valencia, and her crew, as they walk the fine line between aliens and humans always on the verge of war. A semi-finalist in Hugh Howey’s SPSFC, Broken Ascension has been dazzling readers for years now, while Fractured Sentinel and Shattered Lineage expand on the galaxy, characters and dive deeper into the metaphysical and LGBTQ themes. Scott from the YouTube channel Book Invasion had this to say about Broken Ascension: “Walsh crafts some excellent action scenes and tension in a high-stakes world while jugging the yin and yang of the characters.” YouTuber Ramsey Meadows says: “So far this is my favorite of the books I have read for the SPSFC and it was a great grow up fast because he has to book.”

He may be dead but the power of a god lives on. Drake’s life will never be the same again, not after an all-powerful being took root inside his mind. Drake saw Him die with his own eyes, destroyed along with an entire planet. Then why does Drake still hear that voice in the back of his head? Valencia has her own demons to face, her bond with Emma—the Sentinel—left her to mull her own existence and crave the family she never had more than ever. Drake ran off to take care of Bruce and that new guy aboard the Trystero? What a joke. Slowing down isn’t an option, though, not when the enraged son of a fallen Gra’al warlord—the one they killed—has his sights set on the power stirring inside of Drake and exacting his revenge on the galaxy. He’ll stop at nothing to repair his shattered lineage, even if it means the destruction of both the Terran and Gra’als altogether. *** KEYWORDS: scifi, science fiction, science fiction ebooks, space opera, space opera ebooks, alien baby, starships, scifi ebooks, space opera science fiction, colonization scifi, starship aliens, scifi heroine, young adult science fiction adventure, alien baby series, space opera book 1, alien war, lgbtq scifi, young adult scifi, ya scifi, science fiction adventure ebooks, science fiction adventure, lovecraftian scifi, elder gods, elder gods scifi, metaphysical scifi

The war against aliens is over. Earth lost-and humans are nearly extinct... Arwen Cruz watched her parents, brother, and sister die in an endless war. As the last surviving soldier in her battalion, she staggers out of a bombed-out military base and heads north. Arwen's ready to leave the alien strongholds-and the lost cause of fighting them-far behind. She makes it to the deadly wilderness of the Rocky Mountains only to battle starvation instead of invaders. Marah Bennett finds Arwen and suggests she join her small, secluded group-a cult that split from society long before aliens arrived. Arwen accepts, but quickly realizes she doesn't belong-and escaping during the harsh winter is impossible. While living amongst the cult, Arwen discovers a dark secret-a key to reviving her planet-if she can survive long enough to uncover it.

The emperor of the galaxy has fallen, leaving his exiled daughter to pick up the pieces. The once-idyllic Andlios Republic has fallen into chaos after the passing of Emperor Freeman. His son, Cronus, a madman bent on total control of the galaxy, rules in his stead. Adrift on the fringes of republic space, Katrijn Freeman must return home and fulfill her father's dying wish: restore democracy to their fractured republic. There are more forces in play, though. Another princess with a claim to the throne and the Earth Ministry on the other side of the galaxy, bent on domination. It's a race to restore order as Katrijn must traverse the cosmos with her closest allies, caught between humanity's two great civilizations. All while Katrijn and her friends explore their own humanity, trying to avoid repeating the same mistakes that have led to much suffering. It's a space adventure for the ages. This bundle includes: Cydonia Rising Ganymede's Gate Monolith's End *** The Andlios Collection: Books 1 - 3 is a boxed set of the first three books in the Andlios science fiction space opera series. This ebook collection harkens back to the classic, epic space opera series like Dune, Star Wars and Hyperion, while perfect for fans of Legend of the Galactic Heroes, Imperial Radch, New Crobuzon and more. With complex characters and themes, readers follow Katrijn as she deals with the ghosts of her family’s past and the pressures of a galaxy’s future on her shoulders. She’s not alone, though, as Jace, Trella and more cope with their own place in human history, dealing with LGBTQ, collectivist and anti-imperialist themes. The series delves into the metaphysical, asking tough questions about capitalism, colonialism and racism that have plagued history and if we can still build a better future. Veteran Star Trek and Dr. Who author Robert Jeschonek describes Cydonia Rising as such: “Once this book unlocks the vast, rich, and challenging universe that Dave has conjured in his ongoing literary Big Bang, you will never look back.” Author Matt Saccaro touches on the different themes: “It’s a classical space opera mixed with some ancient Rome + medieval Scandinavia. A fascinating juxtaposition and difficult to pull off, but Walsh makes it work.”

Humanity has never been known for subtlety... now is no different. After years of peace, things are unraveling. Drake may be the most powerful human that’s ever lived, imbued with powers beyond his wildest imagination, but still he struggles with his place in the galaxy. For Valencia, the galaxy has done nothing but take from and hurt her, leaving her exhausted and alone. There’s no rest for them in sight, though, as the godlike alien race they discovered on Thuul looms on the horizon, ready to pound down the door to the celestial gate only Drake can access and destroy humanity. All they have to do is convince Terrans to stop weaponizing alien technology… Which is easier said than done. If none of the Terran leaders will listen to them, and only continue down a path of destruction, can the crew of the Trystero keep hope alive by preventing the coming calamity? Or will their hopes for the future be smashed?
