New York Times bestselling author Ian Douglas delivers the action-packed second military sci-fi adventure in his Solar Warden series set in a wildly imaginative alternate present where conspiracy theories are terrifying realities and reptilian aliens team up with Nazis in space. By exposing the sinister Saurians, Navy SEAL Lieutenant Commander Mark Hunter and his team have more than proven themselves. Yet the war between humanity and the intergalactic aliens has only begun—now they must save themselves and all of civilization. The JSST—the Joint Space Strike Team Hunter has put together from all branches of the U.S. military—is again deployed on board the Earth starcraft carrier Hillenkoetter on a mission to probe a possible historical connection between the Saurians and the Nazi Third Reich. At a planet called Paradies orbiting the red giant star Aldebaran, they discover a long-rumored colony of expatriate Nazis... and the beginnings of a plan to enslave Earth under Nazi—and Saurian—rule. With Earth at stake, governments deeply compromised, and evil at the door, Solar Warden must fight together to end it all…even if it means sacrificing everything.

"A fun, fast-paced space adventure... as action-packed as Star Wars or Battlestar Galactica." -- Jeff Bryan, author of Ellie Jordan, Ghost Trapper "Arenson has brought fun back to space opera. If you love Firefly or Guardians of the Galaxy, you'll dig this." -- Colin F. Barnes, author of Hollow Space The skelkrins. Predators from deep space. Creatures of claws, fangs, and unending malice. They swarm across the galaxy, slaying all in their path. Planets burn in their wake. And now they're heading to Earth. Raphael "Riff" Starfire commands the Alien Hunters, a group of scruffy mercenaries. Galactic pest controllers, they mostly handle small critters--aliens that clog up your engine pipes, gnaw on your hull, or burrow through your silos. Riff and his crew have never faced anything like the skelkrins before. As these cosmic killers invade our solar system, will Riff be the one hunting aliens . . . or will aliens hunt him? ALIEN HUNTERS -- a free space opera, alien invasion adventure for fans of Star Wars, Firefly, and Guardians of the Galaxy.

Aliens are big in America. Whether they've arrived via rocket, flying saucer, or plain old teleportation, they've been invading, infiltrating, or inspiring us for decades, and they've fascinated moviegoers and television watchers for more than fifty years. About half of us believe that aliens really exist, and millions are convinced they've visited Earth. Seth Shostak's informative, entertaining report offers an insider's view of what we might realistically expect to discover light-years away among the stars. Neither humanoids nor monsters, says Shostak; in fact, biological intelligence is probably just a precursor to machine beings, enormously advanced artificial sentients whose capabilities and accomplishments may have developed over billions of years and far exceed our own. As he explores what, if anything, they would tell us and what their existence would portend for humankind and the cosmos, he introduces a colourful cast of characters and provides a vivid, state-of-the-art account of the past, present, and future of our search for extraterrestrial intelligence.

BY MILLION COPY-BESTSELLER JASPER T. SCOTT A DEADLY MISSION ON AN UNCHARTED WORLD RIDDLED WITH ANCIENT SECRETS On his last job, Cade Korbin lost his ship, lost his credits, and barely escaped with his life, but it's not over. His enemy is still out there, nursing a decades-old vendetta that has yet to be quenched. Making matters worse, his guild is coming after him for breaking their rules. Cade desperately needs credits and somewhere to lie low for a while. To that end, he takes a job on an uncharted world, code-named Nexus, with his new partner. The mission is to rescue a team of missing researchers and to recover the alien artifacts they went searching for. But Nexus proves to be even deadlier than its Class Five hazard rating would suggest, and Cade soon realizes that he'll be lucky to escape with his life, let alone accomplish the mission. Yet there is a danger on Nexus that goes far beyond hungry alien monsters: a terrifying menace has been waiting there for untold eons to emerge. And Cade Korbin is just about to unleash it.

Welcome to Volume Three of "Not from Here: Selected UFO Articles" by Preston Dennett. As with the previous volumes, Dennett explores the strange and unusual aspects of the UFO phenomenon, presenting the outlying cases that defy the standard model of UFO contact. Inside this volume, you will find: - CAUGHT IN THE ACT Although abduction reports number in the thousands or more, almost nobody ever sees an abduction happen. Or do they? The answer is yes, as these cases prove. - SEE A UFO - LOSE YOUR JOB While seeing a UFO can be an exciting event, it sometimes comes with hidden dangers. Many witnesses find themselves victims of ridicule and disbelief. Sometimes, seeing a UFO can even cost a person their job. - ALIEN GIFTS In very rare cases, aliens give people gifts, actual physical proof of their encounter. It almost never happens, but when it does, the results are astounding. - TO ERR IS ALIEN With their remarkable abilities to dart around silently in the sky, and abduct people at will, the ETs are clearly more advanced than humans. But they are not perfect. Sometimes they make stupid mistakes. - CAN WE CONTACT UFOS WITH A OUIJA BOARD? While most people use a Ouija board to communicate with spirits, there are now a growing number of cases in which the board is used to contact ETs. These cases provide some startling insights into the nature of the UFO phenomenon. - UFOS OVER PRISONS UFOs are known to be attracted to highly specific areas: nuclear power plants, dams, military installations, airports, and other technological areas. What is little known is that they are also attracted to prisons. The question is, why? - IS JESUS AN ALIEN? It's a question that's been asked many times, with much speculation but little supporting evidence. The truth is, there are a number of cases from across the world in which people claim to have met Jesus aboard a UFO. - IS BIGFOOT AN ALIEN? Most UFO cases do not involve Bigfoot, and most Bigfoot cases do not involve UFOs. But in a tiny percentage of cases, these two phenomena perfectly intersect, revealing a mysterious and powerful connection that has yet to be fully explained. - THE TRUTH BEHIND ALIEN ANAL PROBES It's a subject that's received much ridicule and media attention, but little serious analysis. Are people actually being anally probed by ETs? And if so, why? What exactly are the ETs looking for? - IF YOU BUILD IT The aliens seem to be on a mission. In case after case, abductees are taken into the engine room of a UFO and told how it works. In a few of these cases the abductees have used their knowledge to actually build an engine based on what they learned from the ETs. Ten chapters, each exploring a unique area of the UFO phenomenon. Supported by cases from early history to the current day, coming from across the United States and the world, "NOT FROM HERE: VOLUME THREE" makes a valuable contribution to our understanding of these strange visitors to our planet.

CONNIE I have a purple stalker. I don't know what possessed me to hit the Xarc'n warrior with my bat, but now I have a stalker--a big purple stalker with fangs and horns. And to make things worse, I can't go back to New Franklin. After my first night out on my own, I wake up all wrapped up and cuddly with a certain possessive hunter. He purrs like a giant cat and vows to protect me. And to top it all off, he has a pet squirrel. A freakin' pet squirrel! The "Jerk" claims he can't let go of me, but I don't buy it. I'm no squirrel, and I don't intend to be his pet. Not even when he claims I belong with him and promises to protect me forever. JORG'K Killing the scourge is my calling, and I revel in every violent encounter. Hunters are created with strong instincts to protect, but mine never fully manifested. I just wanted to fight. I never understood why some hunters wanted anything more. Until now. I can't get the little human out of my head. She attacks me with her wooden club, and I realize she's all I ever wanted. My brave female watches me as I fight the deadly scourge, so I give her a show of my strength and skills. I will convince her to be my mate. I have to. The mating bond has chosen, and it is never wrong!
