About this ebook

Ozone and burnt plastic. That’s how Nova’s Monday starts.

Sure, her grimy reflection says heart-of-steel but sometimes it’d be nice to test that. Sabotaged in the outer reaches of space, Nova is put blaster-to-blaster with the Confederacy. Her plans for early retirement left on the last starliner, and now she’s got to deal with ancient aliens and government overlords.

All she wanted was enough money to keep her ship flying, but the Confederacy want her dead and buried.

Grab your space racer and strap in - this is going to be one wild ride!

Survivor

An Ancient Evil Rises.

...and it wants its universe back.

Nova’s last bounty didn’t pay enough for beer money let alone pay for the repairs to her ship. On her way to track down two fugitives, aliens – actual honest-to-god bugs – try to shoot her down.

The universe has never done anything for her, but no-one takes a shot at her ship. Only problem is, she’s up against an entire alien race.

And they want her dead. And she’s still out of cash.

On a Universe-changing crash course with destiny, Nova must rise above her money-first principles. If she doesn’t, it’ll be the end of the human race. No pressure, right?

Get Nova's story today!

Pilgrim

Think it's dead? Better be sure.

Nova is a renegade bounty hunter in need of cash. The target: a colonisation ship that went radio silent more than a hundred years ago.

Easy.

But Nova's search for salvage soon becomes a desperate fight for survival. The colonists aren't quite dead; they've evolved--mutated--and even darker secrets lurk beneath this planet's surface.

Hunter

Blood.

Walls. Floor. Ceiling.

That's what happens when vampire covens go to war.

But these aren't sparkling teenagers, these are planet-roving monsters who want to suck every human dry.

Nova is a renegade bounty hunter who shoots first and asks questions later--if at all. The job: capture an escaped prisoner. The catch: he's got fangs.

She didn't expect to be fighting for her life against blood-thirsty monsters with super-human strength.

But this massacre has only just begun.

Gambler

When Aart goes missing Nova is forced to travel back to her hated home planet of Tabryn.

Her latest job to solve a casino heist takes her deep into the fetid underbelly of the corrupt planet, and faces from her past start to resurface.

It will take all of her strength to stay afloat as the past tries to pull her back to where it all began.

Discover the planet that made the bounty hunter in Book Four: Gambler.

Justice

The Inner Galaxies were never on Nova’s bucket list, but she needs the credits.

She thought this would be a quiet security job, but they thought murder. Mix in man-eating plants, and Nova might not make it out of this one.

And let’s not forget the cannibals. Nova is running low on options, and that murder won’t solve itself.
