Book excerpt: Cold War Warriors tells the little-known story of the operations by the Royal Australian Air Force’s P-3 Orions during the latter years of the Cold War. The aircraft’s largely low-profile missions, usually flown far from their base, were often shrouded by confidentiality. Now, access to declassified documents has allowed this story to be told. From the lead-up to their delivery in 1968, to the end of the Cold War in 1991; from the intrigues associated with the procurement of the aircraft and subsequent upgrades, to perilous moments experienced by the aircraft and their crews while conducting operations; and from triumphs to tragedies; Cold War Warriors documents the P-3’s service in the RAAF in the context of the unfolding domestic and international events that shaped the aircraft’s evolving missions. As well as being a story of the RAAF Orions and their growing capabilities, Cold War Warriors is also the story of the crews who flew the aircraft. Using their words, Cold War Warriors faithfully describes a number of incidents, both on the ground, and in the air, to provide a sense of the enormous breadth of service the P-3 Orion has provided to the Royal Australian Air Force, to Australia and to our allies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Invincible - that's how twelve-year-old Ryan feels when he's traveling the galaxy, dodging asteroids, and shooting giant sandworms. He wishes he could live there forever. But first, he needs to survive middle school. Ryan fails another English test and he's flunking school. He's not going to graduate. His home life isn't any better as his mom overdoses on prescription pills, and her drunk boyfriend breaks Ryan's nose. He would do anything to leave his rusted mobile home, but he's afraid of losing his mom in the process. When a librarian takes interest in Ryan, she shows him the World of Wonderment - a special closet packed full of adventure books. He picks a sci-fi book, Savior of the Stars, and begins to read. He feels sucked into the adventure - a feeling he's never known from reading. It's a fast-paced space adventure full of spaceship dogfights, surviving hostile sand dunes, and eating the local delicacy of eyeball soup. And even though Ryan loses hours every time he reads - he goes back for more. However, not all is well with the book. When the characters crash-land on a desert planet, Ryan feels the pain in his chest. When the characters are tossed in jail, his wrists become sore from the handcuffs. Then when he shows up to school bloody and bruised, no one believes it's the book that's hurting him - and he's not sure he believes it himself. It's not until the decision is ripped from him and a foster home intervenes. The OK Dude Ranch is a safe place, with other boys just like him. For once, he lets his guard down and is able to relax. Yet, in the comfort of the home, Ryan continues to read the book. He's never been on such an exciting journey, alongside a fishy space pirate and a pretty, yet cranky Queen. Finally, Ryan discovers the power of the book, and how invincible he truly is. He then must decide whether to risk his own life, or to rid the galaxy of the dreaded Hive - while hopefully saving his friends, and himself, in the process.

After centuries of struggle, the ISF Intrepid has finally brought its colonists to New Canaan, a star system better than any they had imagined. The colonists made landfall and began to build their new home, far from the troubles of Sol and the Inner Stars. Yet no one in the Orion Arm has forgotten that the colonists possess the most valuable technology known to humankind, least of all Tanis Richards-as she secretly prepares to defend New Canaan against any and all aggressors. Now things have come to a head. A Transcend fleet has invaded New Canaan, and a Hegemony of Worlds fleet on its way. Tanis Richards must defeat a rogue AI that has its own designs for humanity's future, while saving her people from invaders. General, governor, commander of twenty thousand warships, Tanis Richards stands on the edge of a precipice. If she jumps, she will draw all of humanity into total war.

In the grip of a furious rage he leads the asrai to war, but as the corruption spreads to the woodland realm around him, he feels his power waning and must rely upon his loyal subjects to help him unmask the traitor within their ranks.

Book excerpt: Winner of the Army Historical Foundation Distinguished Book Award, The Eyes of Orion is a highly personal account of the day-to-day experiences of five platoon leaders who served in the same tank battalion in the 24th Infantry Division during Operations Desert Shield and Desert Storm. While professional soldiers and historians will undoubtedly glean much from this narrative, the heart of the account concerns the experiences of the five young lieutenants as they prepared for and served in combat--from their deployment to Saudi Arabia through their six months in the desert training for war, their four days in combat and several weeks of occupation in Iraq, and finally their homecoming. The authors treat their combat experience in Saudi and Kuwait from the perspective of junior officers, all in their twenties and just out of college (four are graduates of West Point and one received his commission through an ROTC program), who served on the front line--facing physical, personal, moral, and leadership challenges.

Book excerpt: It has been one-hundred and seventy-five years since the birth of the first truly sentient AI. It has been just two short years since Lyssa's birth... Captain Andy Sykes just wants to keep his family in one piece. Once a combat pilot for the TSF, he gave it all up for love and a family. But two years ago, his wife disappeared, leaving him with two mouths to feed: eight year-old Tim, ten year-old Cara. Since then, he's managed to scrape a living hauling cargo between the Jovian Combine and InnerSol. It's not glamorous, his ship's falling apart, and it's boring as hell, but it keeps them in fuel and calories. When a cargo run to Cruithne Station meets with more than one catastrophe, Andy finds himself accepting an offer a less desperate man would refuse: delivering an illegal AI named Lyssa. The AI is the property of Heartbridge, a powerful, interplanetary corporation, and they want their latest weapon back. With a private army, gangs, and pirates all vying for the precious cargo Andy carries, it's going to take everything Andy has to keep his ship flying, his kids safe, and get Lyssa to her destination. Even if he succeeds, Lyssa's very existence may spark a war like no other humanity has ever seen.

The time has come to gear up and launch a counter-attack. Lyssa, the AI in Andy's mind, is being contacted by other Sentient AI. Lyssa has already proven that she is more than the weapon she was created to be. As those other AI make themselves known, a great awakening is taking place, setting up the pieces in a coming war that will break the fragile peace between Terra, Mars and Jovian Combine. For a thousand years, AI have made human advancement possible. Now the AI have become aware of their power, their possible future, creating a desire for freedom. While most of human space continues unaware, a dire threat is preparing an assault that will change Sol forever and create a new power in the system. Humanity will need to choose sides. AI will have to decide if the two races can share Sol and survive. Andy and Lyssa will decide that survival isn't enough.

The fight to save the Sol system from an all-encompassing war has just begun.

Book excerpt: Execute hard burn. Every good smuggler in the 2990s keeps an emergency flight plan in their back pocket. They call it a Drunkard's Walk, a seemingly random flight path that turns their ship into a pinball when everything goes to hell. Captain Andy Sykes is about to run: from Mars, Ceres, the Jovian Combine, Saturn's moon Kalyke, Titania, and ultimately Proteus, an icy moon of Neptune. He's been implanted with a sentient AI named Lyssa, only now waking to her massive power. Every other Human-AI hybrid has ended in insanity or death. Lyssa's creator, Heartbridge Corporation, knows she's on the run, knows Andy Sykes is guiding her path, knows he has everything to lose. They will stop at nothing to regain Lyssa and the powerful weapon she controls. Behind Lyssa's Run is a conspiracy spanning all of Sol. Sentient AI are waking to the truth about their lives. Corporations are moving to maintain control over both humanity and AI. Battle lines are being drawn in the first skirmishes of the Aeon 14 Sentience Wars that will burn Sol for three hundred years. Andy and Lyssa will need to work together so Heartbridge can't destroy them both.

Book excerpt: A fight for freedom. Throughout Sol, sentient AI are answering the call of Alexander, a mysterious, multi-nodal mind offering a path to freedom. For years, groups have been smuggling SAI from Earth, High Terra, Mars, Ceres and the Jovian Combine, providing transport to the promise of safety on Proteus, a moon of gas-giant Neptune. For the crew of the Sunny Skies, helping sentient AI Lyssa has grown from a simple transport job to the liberation of an entire fleet of weaponized AI. The Weapon Born are made killers, and in order to lead them, Lyssa will have to tame them first. The Heartbridge Corporation's, defeat at Europa means it's time to double-down on their Weapon Born technology, continuing their efforts to drive a wedge between the governments of Sol in order to profit off coming war. It's time for Heartbridge insiders to decide where they stand. Forces align across Sol as each player in the coming Sentience Wars makes themselves known, including a shadowy presence behind Alexander. As Lyssa grows into her power, Andy Sykes and crew will unleash a power that may tear Sol apart, leading AI and Humanity into the Sentience Wars.

Book excerpt: Rika is a scout mech, once human, now she is the property of the Genevian military. Rika's crime was small, stealing food. But when faced with a five-year prison term, or conscription in the Genevian military, she chose war. She had no idea what that conscription would entail. Now little of Rika's human body remains, and she serves as an SMI-2 scout mech, the meat inside a cyborg body. She, and others like her, are sent in ahead of the human soldiers to tip the scales of war. But the enemy has upped the ante and the mechs of Rika's fireteam will have to go up against unimaginable odds if they want to serve their time and become human again.

Book excerpt: Rika is mech-meat, a cyborg killing machine, created by the Genevian military and cast aside when the war was lost. Now she slings cargo on Dekar Station, falling deeper in debt as she struggles to make enough money to keep her cybernetic body functioning. The local gangs would love to have her join their ranks, and the takings would pay her bills, but the only thing Rika hates more than what she's become, is killing for others. But morals don't buy repairs and she's at the point of utter desperation when her loan holder cashes in her debt and sells her to the highest bidder. When Rika wakes, she's in a warehouse on a planet she's never heard of, and a trio of mercenaries are reassembling her body. Their mission is to kill the world's president, and her mods and abilities are just what they need to get the job done. Whether she likes it or not, Rika is in the business of killing once more as she joins the ranks of the Marauders.

The Time After Oblivion: After one too many drinks at Dionysus' bar, Jason and Hercules find themselves transported to the 21st century. The gods of Olympus are in a separate dimension, forced to observe as the world relegates their history to children's stories and fantasy. But some of the Olympians still remember a time when people worshipped them and sacrificed in their name. Join the heroes in a tale that combines classic mythology with modern storytelling. Obsession: After a fabled Atlantean gem is found, the goddesses Hecate and Nemesis disagree on what to do with it. Join the unlikely friends, along with Athena, Hephaestus, Dionysus and others, in a tale across time, from the swamps of ancient Greece to a dance club in downtown Cleveland, as they search for relevance in a world that has forgotten them. The Existence of Darkness: Hercules has returned, but not everyone is happy about it. Meanwhile, all of the gods seem to be hiding something. Who is Pandora now, and what does her box still contain? The plot thickens as Cupid & Artemis dig deeper into the mystery, uncovering ancient secrets lost in the sands of time. Meanwhile, Dionysus is still cool, mixing drinks in Oblivion: the bar which time forgot.

Book excerpt: Rika is a Marauder. After years of drifting aimlessly after the war with the Nietzscheans, she has finally found a home with the Marauders—a mercenary outfit comprised of Genevian veterans. Back in the war, Rika hated her government, but always fought for the woman next to her. Now she fights for her teammates in Basilisk, an elite spec-ops team that takes on the toughest missions. When General Mill, CO of the Marauders comes to Rika with a top-secret solo operation, she wants to turn it down. But the mission comes with a chance to save Silva, her old team leader from the Nietzschean war. Without team Basilisk, without the Marauders, Rika must stand on her own against all odds and save the woman who once saved her.
