The Kindle version of Marine Cadet, the first Human Legion book, is available for pre-order from Amazon now: getbook.at/HLegion1 priced 99 cents in the US and something similar in other regions.

This is the double-length feature that kicks off all six books in the series. (It’s 140,000 words, which is pretty big. I had thought of splitting it in two but that would be an artificial division for the purpose of selling more books).

The second book, Indigo Squad, is going through final editing now for release January 2015.

Writing has started on the third book: Renegade Legion.

And since I seem to be discussing the series, the other three books are all sketched out in detail. I hope you’ll enjoy reading them as much as I’m looking forward to writing them.

If you want to beta read, discuss some points of science or military background, or just say hi, do get in touch. I love to hear from readers, even when it’s to say something isn’t right with the science (such as with my post on superluminal booms). And an additional incentive if you were thinking of beta reading, you will get a mention in the credits and a complimentary copy of the paperback.

Here’s a draft poster to wet your appetite. I’m going to have to do some work on the title, which isn’t clear enough. But that’s a task for another day.
