The galaxy was much bigger than anyone could have thought. With it came dangers and bloodshed. In the future, humanity faces threats from across the stars. But our determination and strengths carry us through the struggles.

Across hundreds of worlds, brave warriors of humanity fight for survival and victory. Each of them carries a story. From the lowliest of brigands to the greatest super soldiers to even the secretive and cunning, the galaxy is fought on more fronts than any one man could even imagine.

This story is something I had in mind for a long time and only now am I finding the time to put pen to paper. It's a culmination of everything I ever thought of when I was a kid combined with a plethora of sci-fi and various other things I discovered and came to like.

This is an anthology, meaning it's a collection of short stories about various characters, situations, and plots. If you have a suggestion and would like to know more about the world please do let me know.

Master Sergeant Gant Maker was a highly-decorated and well-respected Marine - until his last mission left him as the sole survivor of an encounter with a vicious race called the Vacra. Served up as a scapegoat and drummed out of the military, he has since lived a life of seclusion with only an adopted alien as a companion.Now the Vacra have returned. As the only person to have ever faced them and survived, Maker is reinstated in the Corps and given the onerous task of finding this enemy on a world located at the edge of known space. Assisting him is an unlikely band of military rejects, including a blind sharpshooter, an unstable psychic, and a genetically-engineered killing machine who refuses to fight.Given that the Vacra have superior weapons and technology, Maker recognizes that his team is at a distinct disadvantage. But Marines are nothing if not resourceful, and Maker has an audacious plan that just may level the playing field – if it doesn’t get them all killed.
