Slave Mind: Book 1 of The Terran Legacy

It was supposed to be a simple – if hugely lucrative – job.

Captain Michael Dannage and the crew of the Hope’s Folly can’t pass up the opportunity to salvage a fleet of warships from the long dead Terran Imperium. Things never go right for Dannage, but he never expected them to get this out of hand.
The Terran ships aren’t as derelict as everyone thought and the malicious force that destroyed the Terrans thousands of years ago is still alive and still bent on humanity’s annihilation.
This could mean the end for all Dannage holds dear, and he’ll do whatever it takes to save the people he cares about.As enemies – both ancient and modern clash – it will take all Dannage’s skills and more than a little luck to survive.

They say ‘hope is not a strategy’, but it’s all Dannage has left.

Terra Prime: Book 2 of the Terran Legacy

Captain Dannage is losing his mind. Or more accurately it’s being stolen.

It started as dreams, whispers in the dark.
It’s been a year since the sentient, Terran ships ripped through colonised space and humanity is rebuilding. But Dannage is suffering the after effects of his linking with the Terran ships, and now, their voices are intruding into his waking thoughts.
With the Terran ships clawing at his sanity, Dannage is desperate for a cure.
This search for a cure throws Dannage, Arland and the crew of the Hope’s Folly into the middle the political machinations of a secessionist government, the clutches of black market scientists, and finally, onto a perilous mission to the heart of the ancient Terran Imperium, to Terra Prime.
But Terra Prime holds secrets much older and darker than any of them could imagine. Some things were never meant to exist in our reality.

Helix Rising: Book 3 of the Terran Legacy

For as long as anyone can remember, the Darkstar Anomaly has been nothing more than an empty void – a hole in the universe. Now it has come to life in a display of shocking violence that leaves one Commonwealth warship destroyed and two more missing.
After surviving the attack, Commander Alana Harrison is reassigned to HMS Charlotte, an experimental ship with the mission to track the Darkstar beyond the borders of Commonwealth space and into the ancient Terran Imperium.
Jess Callohan, a lieutenant still struggling with the aftermath of a training accident, and Michael Dannage, a stranger found almost out of air in an Imperial escape pod, who clearly knows more than he’s willing to say, Join Harrison.
With time running out and answers in short supply, they chase the Darkstar through the heart of the Terran Imperium and beyond – to the very beginnings of life in this galaxy and perhaps its biggest mistake.

But that which was once done cannot be so easily undone.
