Jax is beginning to question this whole doing the right thing, thing.While laying low after their last adventure, Naomi gets a call from her estranged parents. They need her help. Going to the rescue of a pair of oldsters doesn't seem so bad, and it gets them off the station which is nice.Until things, as they do, go sideways.One thing leads to another and they are roped into helping the resistance destroy a secret imperial lab that could provide the emperor an unlimited supply of troopers. Our heroes find themselves on the front lines of the opening salvos of a new civil war.Now, it's a race to thwart the empire, not get killed or caught, while keeping the nicest little Japanese couple ever, safe.No one ever told Jax the cost of being a good guy could be this high.

Politics at the dinner table.Never a good idea. Working for a political agitator is an even worse idea; at least as far as half of the Rogue Enterprises team is concerned. The team has provided security for clients before. This job didn't seem that different. That is until the attacks started.Who wants their client dead? And why? Now it's a race against unknown assailants to protect a client that makes the job difficult, and figure out who and why he's being attacked. Is it the obvious suspect? Probably.... not. Oh and all while the GC is unraveling. No big deal.

Bennie strikes out on his own, temporarily. Not intentionally, the rest of the team is busy. He does have an apprentice now, so there's that.It's a long story. When Bennie took on the mantle of Knight of Plentallus he thought it'd be free food, ribbon cuttings, and cool toys. It is all that, but also, it turns out, a lot more. Nic, the young Olop girl he met when the team was aboard the Galactic Empress, wants to be a Knight of Plentallus.It's not that Bennie doesn't think she can do it, he just isn't interested.Events decide for him when he and his young charge get sucked into the machinations of a political opportunist and one of the more powerful organized crime syndicates on Multon.Now it's all about saving an innocent woman, taking down the syndicate, and not calling the team for help. Can they save the day? Find out.

It's not polite to eavesdrop, but it can be profitable.What starts as a celebration of Jax's grounding being lifted, turns into an Empire-spanning scavenger hunt.Naomi hates scavenger hunts.Jax likes money. Plus he's been grounded for a month and wants, or rather needs to get away from Kelso station.What's at the end of the hunt? Ghosts. Ghosts and memories of what could have been.Do Jax and Naomi win the hunt? Only one way to find out

At least it's not mechanical calamari Wil and the crew of the Ghost have been hired as security consultants for the galaxy's newest, biggest, and most luxurious cruise ship's maiden voyage.Sounds perfect, relax in the lap of luxury on someone else's dime. Except, of course, that's not what happens.While a war rages on the outer edges of the Galactic Commonwealth, something more base is taking shape aboard the Galactic Empress.It's ok though, Bennie has a laser sword.

It was the easiest errand in the universe.Until it wasn't...Jax Caruso is used to everybody trying to kill him. But when his adopted aunt hires him and his bio-circuit enhanced partner under extreme duress to escort her to an Imperial summit, he figures the mandatory job at least comes with easy pay. And with his sidekick's cunning plan for a lucrative revenge-driven heist on the side, he's ready to double-up and rake in a ton more cash...Inadvertently walking into a full-blown rebellion, the twenty-something jack-of-all-trades-for-hire does some fast-talking to avoid taking up arms. Not that he likes the empire, he's just not a joiner.But with old enemies on his trail, a new threat looming, and the burglary turning into a life-and-death affair, the odds of getting off the planet in one piece are rapidly dwindling.Can he and his cyber-programmed colleague blast their way out of danger?Side Hustle Tango is the second book in the zany Grand Human Empire science fiction series. If you like a diverse cast of characters, fast-paced action, and hilarious hijinks, then you'll love John Wilker's high-spirited space opera.Buy Side Hustle Tango to escape a rock and a hard place today

Someone stole something.Something more dangerous than any weapon in existence. Something that the crew of the Ghost are far too familiar with and had hoped to never see again.The Commission to wind down the nightmare experiments of Farsight Corporation has been robbed, and it wasn't Wil and the crew. They're hired to recover the stolen data.They get help from two unlikely groups, one will betray them and the Galactic Commonwealth.Sometimes honor gets in the way.

When someone says they have a job for you, you don't get picky.Jackson "Jax" Caruso is a war orphan. His parents died when he was young. They were on the losing side of a civil war.He does what he can to survive, taking the jobs that come and not asking too many questions. He has a ship, and a crew of droids to help get him by.Kelso Station, one of the few remaining independent space stations left in what used to be the Independent Systems Alliance, now it's called the Grand Human Empire, is home.The job sounds straightforward. More importantly, it pays well. The only problem is that it's bigger than he can do on his own. He's going to need help.There's nothing worse than doing the job and finding out that you were played.Now they have to make things right while avoiding ever-present imperial patrols.No pressure.

Sometimes your customers are galactic mega-corporations.Sometimes your customers are Galactic Commonwealth Politicians.And sometimes your customers are drunks who find you in a bar.Those are the most exciting jobs.They're also the most dangerous and possibly the most rewarding.Find out what happens when the crew of the Ghost ventures to the outskirts of the Commonwealth on an epic quest.

Sometimes the jobs are simple, deliver a crate.Sometimes the crate is full of space bees and Bennie opens it.Gabe is back from his mission of leading a droid civil rights movement and seems to have been more or less successful.A new client approaches the crew, escort and protection detail for a summit. That sounds easy, and the pay is good.Turns out the Galactic Commonwealth is only partly run by the governing council...Things, as they do, turn sideways and now the Ghost is hiding from a super-advanced warship that shouldn't exist.Turns out one of their previous clients is far eviler than they ever imagined, and someone they thought worthless turns out to be a valuable ally. Who doesn't like learning new things?

Wil never planned to go home again.Plans change. Hired by one of the most powerful people in the Galactic Commonwealth to retrieve someone, the crew takes the job.Wil has reservations, the crew wants more bacon. Get in, grab the target, get bacon, and get out.Easy right?Wrong.Things go downhill fast. While Wil has been off saving the galaxy (more than once, thank you very much), Earth has been busy on projects of their own. None of them good for anyone else.Not to mention their target isn't what they expected.Now Wil and the crew of the Ghost have to decide what to do next.Bennie doesn't want to be dissected See what happens when homecomings go sideways.

Hired to bring a tech team to a remote planet. They had no idea what was waiting for them. Wil and the crew of the Ghost show up to find a nearly deserted research outpost on a frozen world. Nearly deserted...

For the crew of the Ghost, it's never just a jobThe last one nearly cost them a member of the crew. Well, they fight spider-bears, meet Bennie's family and learn more than anyone wants to about Wil's digestive tract, and Wil reveals what he's been hiding under his bed all this time. And then it gets interesting!

They saved the Galactic Commonwealth once.Now they just want to do their thing. Whatever that is. The crew of the Ghost has been privateering for government they saved and enjoying the thrill of kicking pirate butt, and taking their loot. Nothing lasts forever. There's a bounty on their heads.A call from an old friend has them leave the safety of the Harrith system. No good deed, and all that.
