• Book 12021Shards of Earth

  Eighty years ago, Earth was destroyed by an alien 'Architect'. Some escaped, but millions more died. So to protect its colonies, humanity shaped the minds of Idris and others into weapons and sent them into battle. But the Architects disappeared, and heroes like Idris were forgotten. However, he's glad of it. This particular living weapon would rather retire to a shabby salvage vessel then be anyone's ammunition. Then this small ship makes a huge discovery.

• Book 22022Eyes of the Void

  Sequel to Shards of Earth. An Architect almost destroyed humanity's foremost colony, until Idris Telemmier turned it aside. But that was just the start of the war - and now no planet is safe. Ancient artefacts once repelled these vast aliens, but they are now terrifyingly ineffective. However, the ruins of a lost civilization offer hope.

• Book 32023Lords of Uncreation

  Sequel to *Eyes of the Void*.
