Book 1 – The Engines of God

Info:
Humans call them Monument-Makers. An unknown race, they left stunning alien statues scattered on distant planets throughout the galaxy, encoded with strange

inscriptions that defy translation. Searching for clues about the Monument-Makers, teams of 23rd century linguists, historians, engineers and archaeologists have been

excavating the enigmatic alien ruins on a number of planets, uncovering strange, massive false cities made of solid rock. But their time is running out.

Earth’s ravaged environment is quickly making it unlivable, and colonizers want to begin terraforming these abandoned worlds for human habitation. Only interstellar

archaeologist Richard Wald and starship pilot Priscilla Hutchins are convinced that uncovering the secrets of the monuments may hold the key to survival for the entire

human race.

Book 2 – Deepsix

Info:
In the year 2204, tragedy and terror forced a scientific team to prematurely evacuate Maleiva III. Nineteen years later, a rogue moon hurtling through space is about

to obliterate the last opportunity to study this rare, life-supporting planet. With less than three weeks left before the disaster, superluminal pilot Priscilla

“Hutch” Hutchins — the only even remotely qualified professional within light years of the ill-fated planet — must lead a small scientific team to the surface to

glean whatever they can about its life forms and lost civilizations before time runs out.

But catastrophe awaits when they are stranded on this strange and complex world of puzzles and impossibilities. And now Hutch and her people must somehow survive on a

hostile world going rapidly mad — as the clock ticks toward apocalypse for a doomed enigma.

Book 3 – Chindi

Info:
The universe has been explored – and humanity has all but given up on finding other intelligent life. Then an alien satellite orbiting a distant star sends out an

unreadable signal. Is it the final programmed gasp of an ancient, long-dead race? Or the first greeting of an undiscovered life

Book 4 – Omega

Info:
A civilization-destroying omega cloud has switched direction, heading straight for a previously unexplored planetary system–and its alien society. And suddenly, a

handful of brave humans must try to save an entire world–without revealing their existence.

Book 5 – Odyssey

Info:
To boost waning interest in interstellar travel, a mission is sent into deep space to learn the truth about “moonriders,” the strange lights supposedly being seen in

nearby systems. But Academy pilot Valentina Kouros and the team of the starship Salvator will soon discover that their odyssey is no mere public-relations ploy, for

the moonriders are not a harmless phenomenon. They are very, very dangerous-in a way that no one could possibly have imagined.

Book 6 – Cauldron

Info:
The year is 2255. The academy that trained the starfarers is long gone and veteran star pilot Priscilla “Hutch” Hutchins spends her retirement supporting fund-raising

efforts for The Prometheus Foundation, a privately funded organization devoted to deep space exploration.

But when a young physicist unveils an efficient star drive capable of reaching the core of the galaxy, Hutch finds herself back in the deepest reaches of space, and on

the verge of discovering the origins of the deadly Omega clouds that continue to haunt her.
