Blog postDuel in the Dark is the first book in my new Blood on the Stars series. I'm really excited about this one...I was very happy with the way it turned out. I think this new series captures the scope and strength of the Crimson Worlds series, but I've written two million words since I published Marines, and I feel like it shows in this new book.
I also know you don't like to wait too long for the next book. Book two, Call to Arms, is already available for preorder, and -
Blog postWinds of Vengeance Available on All Retailers!
Book four of the Refugees series is now available on all other retailers (and in print)! Winds of Vengeance begins the Vengeance Trilogy, the next chapter in the adventures of the Refugees.
I don't like pestering readers for reviews, but they are very important, and I have been getting fewer of them recently, so I will just say, if you have time, a review is greatly appreciated. It really matters! -
Blog postHomefront Released
The third and final book of the Portal Wars series is now out. If you preordered, you should have Homefront already. If not, it is now available on all platforms.

Blog postShadow of Empire Now $5.99
I am pleased to announce that books one and two of the Far Stars series have had their prices reduced to $5.99. Harper Voyager has responded to my request for lower pricing, more in line with my other books.
The Far Stars is a new universe, one in which I will be writing many additional books beyond this trilogy. So I am thrilled that the publisher has reset the price closer to my usual levels. If you've been considering reading Shadow of -

I am pleased to announce that the second book of the Far Stars series, Enemy in the Dark, is now available on all retailers. The Far Stars is my first trilogy for HarperCollins Voyager, and it concludes with Book III, Funeral Games, which will be released on January 19. I know the Harper books are priced a bit higher than my other works, but I really feel they are some of the best things I've written, and I am grateful to those who hav -
Blog postHomefront (Portal Wars Book III) Now Available for Preorder
I'm extremely excited to announce the upcoming release of the third book in the Portal Wars trilogy. I know a lot of you have been waiting for this book for a long time (I should have had it out much sooner...I'm sorry!), and I'm excited to finally give some details and announce a release date. Homefront will be out February 9, 2016, and it is available now for preorder! I'm really excited about it, and I think i -
Blog postShadow of Empire, the first book of my new Far Stars trilogy, is available today in both ebook format (at all retailers) and in bookstores too. The Far Stars is an epic space opera, with pirates, smugglers, heroes, villains...even an evil empire.
Shadow of Empire is my first book with Harper Voyager, and I would be sorely remiss if I didn't give them a shout out here. I truly enjoyed working with everyone on my team there, and I don't think the Far Stars books woul -

Blog postThe Prisoner of Eldaron is the second book in the Crimson Worlds Successors series. It was supposed to be out the last week of July, but it turned out to be by far the longest book I've ever written. So it's a couple weeks late, but in return, you get a book that is almost two-thirds longer than MERCS (book one of the series). And if you haven't read MERCS yet, it's on sale for the next two days (just 99 cents).

Blog postThe Prisoner of Eldaron, Successors Book II, will be out next week. I'd originally planned to release it the last week of July, but at the last minute, I decided there was more story to tell. While I write long series usually, I also try to make each book a self-contained story while also advancing the series plot. So, it's going to end up being two weeks later than I'd hoped, but also about 30,000 words longer (a good third longer than I'd expected), and also the longest book

Blog postIntroducing the Far Stars Series...
I'm excited to announce my first series to be published by HarperCollins Voyager. The Far Stars series is something new and completely different, a trilogy I've been working on for a long time, and one I'm thrilled to see so close to release. I appreciate each and every one of you who read my books...you are the best fans any writer could hope to have. I think the Far Stars is the best thing I have written (and I can't wait until the bo -

MERCS is the first book of the new Crimson Worlds Successors series, scheduled to be released on March 24, 2015. The series is mostly set approximately thirty years after the events of The Fall (there are a few flashbacks to the intervening period).
I have done a number of sneak peaks on my blog in the past, but this list is the biggest concentration of my readers, so I decided I should be sending those out here. So here it is...the link -

Blog postFirst of all, Happy Veterans' Day. The NYC parade is passing under my window even as I type this. It looks great, and it's nice to see veterans get the attention they deserve. Things were a lot different when I was a kid in the 70s, and it's fantastic to see such a change for the better.
Since I know a lot of my readers are vets, I thought I'd post a second chapter of CW9 today. Enjoy!
