The first eight novellas of Blaze Ward's Science Officer series collected together for the first time!

Despite the best efforts of both the Republic of Aquitaine Navy (RAN) and the Freiburg Empire, pirates remain a problem for smaller communities, away from the main starlanes. Due to Jessica Keller's success on her previous mission to cause problems for the Freiburg Empire, the head of the senate requests Jessica's assistance on a very special assignment: pirate hunting. What sort of mischief can Jessica and her crew cause in a backwater system? Particularly when given the full backing of the senate?

Jessica Keller has a reputation as a maverick commander. It almost got her court martialed. Now, it has gotten her a new command in an obscure sector, with orders to ignite a new front in the eternal war. But her old nemesis, Imperial Admiral Emmerich Wachturm, stands in her way. Worlds will fall before their feud ends, but only if she can forge her crew of strangers into a weapon. Otherwise, disaster looms.

Icy cold revenge. The best kind. Unless it requires the purging fires instead. Javier owns the Land Leviathan. Now, the payoff. Javier and Zakhar’s retribution on Valko Slavkov challenges everyone to take sides: Walvisbaai Industrial, the Concord, and the Khatum of Altai. Worlds will fall and lives will be lost before Javier’s wrath.

As Captain Navarre, the science officer rescued his greatest enemy and destroyed her captors. Now, someone else wants to hire the ruthless pirate Navarre, and Javier must take Sykora with him to help. Their mission? To raid the most luxurious starship in space: Shangdu, The Pleasure Dome.

The Science Officer has done the impossible and stolen the Last Flagship. With the help of his friends, Javier will take his private war to Valko Slavkov and the pirates with a theft so audacious, so brazen, nobody could predict it. And so big that the Concord itself takes a personal interest. Book seven in the Science Officer series and part one of the Hammerfield saga. To be concluded in The Hammerfield Payoff. Part of the Alexandria Station universe.

She disappeared more than 80 years ago. Lost forever to myth and legend like Excalibur tossed into the waters. When the Science Officer leads the crew to the last flagship of the Neu Berne fleet, they must risk awakening a sentient warship if they want to go after the man who destroyed Storm Gauntlet. Just how derelict is the last flagship? Could it be a trap as well? The Last Flagship may just be the most daring caper for Javier Aritza, Suvi, and the crew of Storm Gauntlet.

It seemed like a legitimate heist when someone hired Storm Gauntlet and her crew to go hijack some cargo. Pirate ships did that sort of thing. However, whoever hired them didn't count on the Science Officer's sneakiness. Paranoia. Whatever. The situation didn't make sense. No one would deliver cargo to a dead planet. It had to be a trap. Someone had set them up. But who? And why?
