A planet made entirely of anti-matter bears down on Earth. A Swarm ship from the distant future with deadly stolen technology is on the loose. And a robotic fleet has been taken by the angry Valarisi, who now hunt their old friend Granger, who they believe will give them the secret to destroying the Swarm.

Wojna szaleje w przestrzeni Zjednoczonej Ziemi i niszczy miliony istnień. Rój powrócił, większy i bardziej zajadły, do tego z miażdżącą przewagą technologiczną. Z Tytana, księżyca Saturna, nadchodzi ostrzeżenie - podobno od samego Tima Grangera - że tym razem wróg może okazać się niepokonany. Admirał Shelby Proctor, podejrzana o zamordowanie prezydenta Zjednoczonej Ziemi, ucieka. Zmierza na Tytana, bo uważa, że jedyną nadzieją ludzkości jest bohater martwy od trzydziestu lat.

Kapitan Timothy Granger pól zycia sluzyl na "Konstytucji". Okret byl stary, pochodzil jeszcze z czasów, gdy Ziemie zaatakowali obcy z kosmosu. Ludzkosc odparla wroga i przygotowala sie na kolejna inwazje, jednak od tamtej pory minelo wiele lat. Kapitan Granger i jego zaloga nie zaznali juz ognia walki i nie wierzyli, ze obcy powróca. Przestarzala "Konstytucja" stanowila tylko relikt przeszlosci i slepy zaulek w karierze, na jej pokladzie gromadzily sie wyrzutki floty.

Ziemia plonie. Rój przemierza kosmos i podbija swiaty na swojej drodze. Oplakujemy miliony towarzyszy broni, którzy polegli na tysiacach zniszczonych okretów. Wszyscy zgineli - miliony ojców, matek, sióstr i braci. Juz czas, abysmy zakonczyli te walke. Pora na nasz ruch. Nie ma zwyciestwa bez ofiar. Nie ma szkolen ani nauki, jak zostac bohaterem. Tacy jak on powstaja z krwi, ruin i zgliszczy. Podreczniki do historii naszych wnuków opowiedza jego legende i beda glosic chwale poleglych.

Mgła wojny przesłania wszystko. Wrogowie czyhają w ciemności, czają się w sercu floty, która przysięgła bronić Zjednoczonej Ziemi. Wszędzie tylko spiski i morderstwa, a w tle… czekają siły inwazyjne obcych. Szczątki okrętu Golgotów zostały pogrzebane głęboko pod powierzchnią największego księżyca Saturna. Masa Tytana powoli, lecz nieuchronnie wzrasta. Dolmasi, podczas drugiej wojny z Rojem sojusznicy Zjednoczonej Ziemi, atakują ludzi bez powodu.

We repelled the Swarm - for now. But they won't stop: They're inhuman. They have no inhibitions. No conscience. And no mercy. But from the crucible of battle has risen an unlikely hero. Captain Timothy Granger, at the helm of another time-tested battleship, will take the fight to the enemy. He'll discover their secrets. Find their homeworld. Destroy it before they destroy ours. He will save us all. He must. Or we'll die.

We barely won the battle at Mercury's shipyards, but the war is just beginning. The Telestines, in control of Earth, now pursue us from planet to planet, moon to moon, leaving terrible destruction in their wake. And now, the unthinkable: a new alien weapon with the power to destroy a whole world. Thousands die on Jupiter's moon Io when a bomb detonates, sending apocalyptic storms of debris that threaten millions of people on Ganymede and Callisto.

The year is 2650. Seventy-five years ago, an alien fleet attacked Earth. Without warning. Without mercy. We were not prepared. Hundreds of millions perished. Dozens of cities burned. We nearly lost everything. Then the aliens abruptly left. We rebuilt. We armed ourselves. We swore: never again. But the aliens never came back. Until now. With overwhelming force the aliens have returned, striking deep into our territory, sending Earth into a panic.

United Earth burns. The Swarm runs rampant across our space. We mourn the loss of thousands of ships and millions of fallen comrades. Billions of fathers, mothers, sisters, and brothers - all gone, all dead. It is time we end this, for our moment has come. But victory never comes without sacrifice. Heroes are not taught nor trained but forged in blood and ashes. Our grandchildren's history books will tell our story and glorify the heroes and legends.

A rogue element within the military has stolen half the Exile Fleet and taken it to Neptune to protect the rich and powerful, drawing critical resources away from Admiral Walker on the front lines. The leader of the alien Telestines has recovered ancient devastating technologies to finally exterminate the human race. And a fanatical Telestine death cult is out for blood - both Human and their own. For them, all must die for all to ascend.

Odparlismy inwazje Roju. Na razie. Ale obcy nie przestana nas atakowac. To nie ludzie. Nie maja oporów. Nie maja sumienia. Nie znaja litosci. Jednak w ogniu wojny narodzil sie bohater. Kapitan Timothy Granger na mostku starego okretu, który dawno temu sprawdzil sie na polu bitwy, stawil opór wrogom. Tylko Granger moze odkryc tajemnice Roju. Tylko on znajdzie planete, skad pochodza obcy. I zniszczy ich, zanim oni zniszcza nas.

Lieutenant Jacob Mercer likes fast motorcycles, faster women, and screamin' space fighters. As a reckless fighter jock in the Resistance fleet battling the Corsican Empire, he lives solely for the thrill of taking out as many Imperial bogeys as he can. A rebel victory is looming on the horizon when the Imperials abruptly change tactics and, in a surprising show of devastating force, incinerate the city of Dallas with a thermonuclear blast - killing millions - and delivering a merciless example of what happens to upstart worlds..

Captain Jacob Mercer and the USS Phoenix barely escape with their lives from the Imperial ambush at Liberty Station and soon find themselves orbiting the frontier world Destiny, a forbidding planet infested with pirate gangs. With critically unstable engines, Jake is forced to seek raw material for badly needed repairs before the ruthless Admiral Trajan tracks them down.

Captain Jake Mercer and the crew of the Phoenix finally escape from Admiral Trajan's relentless pursuit, hoping for some much needed rest and supplies. But while in the Oberon system, the 51st Brigade decides to make its move against Captain Mercer in revenge for the murder of one of its soldiers. Jake must enlist the help of a local paramilitary organization to not only regain his ship, but also to fight off the Vikorhov Federation, one of Admiral Trajan's surrogates in the sector.

Earth has fallen to the Findiri, and the resistance to their rule led by Admiral Shelby Proctor is scattered across the galaxy. Controlled by the Quiassi, who calls himself Abraham Haws - Captain Granger's old friend and XO - the Findiri unleash a storm of destruction as they hunt down Granger, their creator, and seek to end the resistance to their rule.

They’re coming. The Findiri, a savage, deadly race created to fight the Swarm, are on the hunt. But they no longer hunt the Swarm. They hunt humans. And not just any human - they seek their creator, Captain Timothy Granger, and mean to destroy him. But we are not alone. More alien races, hiding from the Swarm for millennia, also search for Earth, seeking the legend from their own stories to protect them: a being called Granger.

War. It rages across United Earth space, claiming millions of lives. The Swarm have returned, larger, more fierce, and more technologically advanced than ever before. The voice from Saturn's moon Titan claiming to be Tim Granger is warning humanity that this time, the Swarm may be unstoppable. Admiral Shelby Proctor, on the run for the suspected murder of the United Earth President, knows that humanity's only hope may be a hero that's been dead for 30 years, and travels to the center of Titan to find him in Earth's darkest hour.

The fog of war clouds everything. Enemies lurk in the shadows, within the very fleet sworn to protect United Earth. Conspiracies and murder abound, and in the background.... The stalled alien invasion lurks. The Golgothic ship has burrowed deep into the core of Saturn's moon Titan, whose mass slowly but inexorably increases. The Dolmasi, once allies of United Earth in the Second Swarm War, now attack us, unhinged and without reason. And all the while, Admiral Shelby Proctor works to answer the most urgent questions of all.

Fifteen outstanding authors. Fourteen extraordinary stories. One best-selling universe. It’s the 22nd century. The galaxy has opened up to humanity as a hyperactive beehive of stargates and new technologies, and we suddenly find ourselves in a vast playground of different races, environments, and cultures. Enter the Four Horsemen universe, where only a willingness to fight and die for money separates humans from the majority of the other races. Enter a galaxy not only of mercenaries, but also of aliens, hired assassins, and accountants. Accountants?

Thirty years after the Second Swarm War devastated Earth and its colonies, a powerful, mysterious alien ship has invaded our space. Entire planets are ravaged, whole moons shattered. Any starship sent against it never came home. But Admiral Proctor, a war hero from our last brush with annihilation, is called out of retirement to take the reins of humanity's newest starship. The ISS Independence and her crew, with Admiral Proctor at the helm, will stand as Earth's last defense.
