Cole & Srexx. Knightsfall Press Series Omnibus, #1

Cole never planned on becoming anyone's captain. But from the moment he crossed paths with a ship that shouldn't exist and an AI who refuses to be ignored, the galaxy had other ideas. Now he's caught between collapsing empires, ruthless pirates, and powers so old most spacers think they're myths. Every choice he makes pulls him deeper into conflicts that span systems-and closer to allies who refuse to let him face it all alone.
Across smuggler dens, war councils, and battlefields lit by dying stars, Cole has to decide what kind of future he's willing to fight for. and how much of himself he's willing to spend to build it. Sharp banter. High-stakes intrigue. Starships with bite. If you crave sweeping space adventure with grit, wit, and heart, the Cole & Srexx series will keep you reading long past jump.
