Sure, unless the one you’ve plowed into is a murderous psychopath, who’s been lying in wait for the young Consignment Freight delivery pilot.

A thousand years ago, an alien invasion set humanity back to the Iron Age. Slowly, we recovered, colonizing the Solar System in peace. And discovered that an unknown force is stopping us from exploring any farther. But before the cause can be discovered, a slow-burning conspiracy threatens to explode into System-wide war. With enemies at home and in the darkness beyond, a team of unlikely heroes-a janitor, a mercenary, an asteroid miner, and a pirate-are the only ones who can avert a second apocalypse. This set includes the first three books of the newly-finished REBEL STARS series.

On August 25, 2012, the Voyager 1 probe crossed into interstellar space. It contained a "golden record" with sounds, pictures, and greetings from Earth.

It's the end of the twenty-first century. The bulk of humankind has conjoined itself with an artificial intelligence. A minority remains in opposition. A desperation has taken hold within the unincorporated zones where free humans still live. Many of them are choosing to leave Earth forever and fly to colonies on the moons of Saturn. In an ancient diner, Spruck Jones is about to make a bold move to change his flagging fortunes. Even the best-laid plans almost never go as planned.

In 2101, having conquered the Solar System, most humans are choosing to tie their minds to an Artificial Intelligence. The only place to be free of AI is living off-world, with Saturn and its vast system of moons serving as the wild frontier. The only caveats to living there: the funds to fly a billion miles into space and a pledge to keep vigil against the threat of AI. Otherwise, what you do out there is your business.

The ringed planet and its moons remain the Wild West as the crew delves into the meaning of what makes us human, what is freedom anyway, and exploring these truths—space is hard, relationships are complicated, shit happens, and just as art is subjective, evil is often defined by the eye of the beholder.

For Commander Roland horn, he finds his special operations squadron put to use in increasingly dangerous operations. Most of the Union Fleet outside the Mars Sphere is held up in the Avalonian space fortress Trafalger.

They were the Guardians, 16 special men and women with incredible powers who had sworn their lives to the protection of their galaxy, while upholding the laws of their world. It was a world that, eons ago, had suffered a devastating plague that had rendered more than half its population unable to reproduce. As a result, in order to assure the survival of their species, the HandFast law was enacted. Every month, twenty couples were drawn by lottery. Couples whose sole purpose would then be procreation, the continuation of the species.
