Book Description
Benjamin Reagan has spent his entire life aboard Victoria, towing ships and (sometimes illicit) cargo across the skies. When Disaster strikes, Ben and Vicky go from towing damaged ships to picking up damaged survivors. First to be rescued is Thorbin, a fighter pilot reeling from unbearable loss and defeat, longing to rediscover his destiny. As the unlikely pair journey towards Mars, fighting aliens, pirates and mobsters along the way, they pick up more survivors: an alien sexpot looking for her next sugar daddy; an aging warrior with a penchant for mass destruction; and a girl-next-door engineer who'd rather be hunting for the father of her unborn, fat babies than nasty aliens. With a mercenary for hire and a devious blonde bombshell also along for the ride, it's up to Ben and Thorbin to ensure a crippled Victoria and her crew make it to their next destination. Can the gang survive the sea of change before them? Or is this the final port for Victoria's crew - and the rest of humanity?

Pages : 271
Book Description
It's the year AD 2430. Almost four hundred years earlier, humanity had barely survived a horrific near-extinction-level event: a solar micronova. Survivorship colonies set up by a cabal with advanced technologies eventually evolve into a global Perfect Society called the United Federation of Connectedness (UFC). Initially based on co-ops, barter and trade, and equal access for all, a model that rose out of the ashes of the authoritarian governments of the past, humanity, bored and striving for more, eventually steers the planet to a balanced authoritarian model run by Victoria, a genetically engineered Master Server, implanted with artificial intelligence. When the Animal Rights Act is introduced, the backward-looking religionists and many others think that Victoria has finally gone too far. Artificial love is the glue that keeps the heavily networked society together, but a radicalized religious cult, the MHs, who yearn for a natural connection to their God, reject technology and the electronic beasts who govern. Protected by the blood of their human messiah, they launch a terrorist attack to take down the Perfect Society and replace it with their own. A top scientist, Claressa, who is loyal to Victoria, and her boyfriend, Pierre Lewalski, are summoned to UFC Capital City to thwart the attack. Will they be successful? Should they be?

Book Description
Tyler Bennett trusts no one. Just another foster kid bounced from home to home, he’s learned that lesson the hard way. Cue world’s tiniest violin. But when strange things start happening—waking up with bloody knuckles and no memory of the night before or the burner phone he can’t let out of his sight—Tyler starts to wonder if he can even trust himself. Even stranger, the girl he’s falling for has a burner phone just like his. Finding out what’s really happening only leads to more questions...questions that could get them both killed. It’s not like someone’s kidnapping teens lost in the system and brainwashing them to be assassins or anything, right? And what happens to rogue assets who defy control? In a race against the clock, they’ll have to uncover the truth behind Project Pandora and take it down—before they’re reactivated. Good thing the program spent millions training them to kick ass... The Assassin Fall series is best enjoyed in order. Reading Order: Hades Rising (prequel novella) Book #1 Project Pandora Book #2 Project Prometheus
