THRILLING SCIENCE FICTION ADVENTURE FROM BEST-SELLING AUTHORS LARRY CORREIA AND JOHN BROWN The Heart of a Warrior Once, Jackson Rook was a war hero. Raised from boyhood to pilot an exosuit mech, he’d fought gallantly for the rebellion against the Collectivists. But that was a long time ago, on a world very far away. Now, Jackson Rook is a criminal, a smuggler on board the Multipurpose Supply Vehicle Tar Heel. His latest mission: steal a top-of-the-line mech called the Citadel and deliver it to the far-flung planet Swindle, a world so hostile even the air will kill you. The client: a man known only as the Warlord. Rook has been in the smuggling business long enough to know that it’s best to take the money and not ask questions. But Rook cannot stand by and watch as the Warlord runs roughshod over the citizens of Swindle, the way the Collectivists did on his homeworld. For all his mercenary ways, Rook is not a pirate. And deep within the smuggler, the heart of a warrior still beats. At the publisher's request, this title is sold without DRM (Digital Rights Management).

Welcome to the end-of-the-universe clearance sale. All life must go. Trapped and tortured in the Halcius Hegemony's reality-warping prison, arms dealer Bodhi Drezek has resigned himself to Kruthara's galaxy-swallowing apocalypse. But for better or worse, his fortune changes in the wake of a daring jailbreak by an old nemesis. Before long, he finds himself among the ranks of humanity's scattered, broken remnants, who have organized a last-ditch effort to preserve reality. Their solution? The tomb of the Great Maker, an ancient site prophesized to contain the only weapons capable of halting Kruthara's hellish tide. But the search for the tomb leads them into an uncharted, nightmarish dimension known as the Untraversed-and Bodhi's ragtag band isn't alone in it. Kruthara's eldritch terrors, bolstered by the entire fleet of the Halcius Hegemony, are hot on their trail. With every step forward, entire civilizations burn at their backs. Stars and planets are consumed by eternal darkness. With nowhere else to run, Bodhi plunges deeper into the madness, dodging time-twisting organisms, sun-devouring serpents, and dreaming gods. Most terrifying, however, is what lies at the end of the road-his destiny. The INTERSTELLAR GUNRUNNER Series is a space opera thrill ride perfect for fans of Firefly, the Bobiverse, and Guardians of the Galaxy.
