No Man's Space

The warship that saves Earth demands its surrender.

Seattle naval architect Kai Carson has spent his life believing someone is out there. He never imagined his own past would hold the proof.

In Vienna in 1815, powers from beyond Earth altered the destiny of one of his ancestors, a diplomat negotiating peace. Two centuries later, that man’s memories are awakening in Kai’s mind.

An alien stranger named Oron offers answers, and a role in a conflict humanity does not yet know exists.

Earth controls access to minerals essential to faster-than-light travel. To rival civilizations, the planet is a prize. To an enemy capable of killing humans and wearing their identities, its people are an obstacle.

A vessel disguised as an asteroid is approaching, carrying a weapon designed to wipe out humanity while leaving the planet intact. Kai joins an international effort to stop it, only to discover that the enemy is already inside Earth’s defenses. His uneasy partnership with a rogue alien operative raises another question: how much will Oron’s alliance sacrifice to uphold its principles?

When an imperial warship intervenes, the price of survival is surrender.

The Empire offers protection backed by overwhelming force. The alliance offers a place among the stars, with technology that could end energy scarcity and opportunities far beyond Earth. Governments choose sides, and Kai is asked to speak for an alliance he increasingly doubts.

Then the conflict reaches his family.

Humanity’s struggle for its future began two centuries ago, in Vienna. Before Kai can ask the world to trust him, he must discover why he was chosen, and what that choice will cost.
