An extremophile organism makes the jump from volcanic vents under the sea to Antarctic caves, and is discovered by US naval operation HighJump in 1948. In a desperate race across the Greenland ice cap today, Maric and a Canadian Mounties MSERT team are too late to stop a sample of the organism, transplanted to a new home, falling into the wrong hands. Recruiting a Georgian militia team fighting Jihadist elements in the Caucasus Mountains, Maric and a Grey Ops force must find and destroy the sample before a Chechen warlord weaponises it, creating a new Weapon of Mass Destruction. Maric at his finest!

SAS veteran Maric is training a special force team in suburban recon in Petersburg, Virginia. He meets a woman who is part of a Richmond Tactical team taking down a criminal syndicate. Days later a worldwide series of earthquakes and tsunamis knocks civilisation back to the horse and cart days, and she joins his team. Maric's boss Cal sends him to the Atlas Mountains, on the edge of the Sahara Desert, to look into a strange happening recorded 80 years ago. It might explain what's been happening in the world today. Then a bombardment from the skies takes out the military bases and industrial capacity of the advanced nations. The only functioning military capacity left on the planet is a handful of special forces scattered across the globe. Between them, Cal and Maric struggle to make sense of the devastating events besetting their world, and turn the tables on the alien perpetrators.

This fifth addition to the Unsung Warrior series is a standalone book, and Maric takes his uncompromising SAS skills to the big city. Special Branch in London have three dead Pakistani immigrants, no leads, and a spike in dark web chatter. Can Maric identify the terrorist threat before it's too late?Attached to CID Walworth as a cover, Maric doesn't have his Grey Ops assets to fall back on. But then he meets an old warrior at Counter Terrorism Command, and finds himself welcomed into a British unit. The plot he unravels has been many years in the making, and a formidable tribal force from Pakistan is assembled in London to take revenge for a centuries-old injustice. Maric has a name, but who is the mysterious Saidullah, re-born holy man and now warlord? With days left to go, he doesn't have a where, or when, for the attack, and it's time to find out whether he's good enough for a job this complex.

Maric gets two calls for help. One from a Dayak tribe who helped him take over a diamond mine in Kalimantan being used by a crime boss. The Dayak's traditional nomadic trails through the interior are being blocked by coastal Iban intent on a land grab. The other call is from a Croatian Special Forces soldier who helped Maric take down the same crime boss in the Albanian mountains. The man's sister and her partner have disappeared in the lawless wilds of northern Kosovo. Maric's boss can spare him from his Grey Ops work, but he can't support him for either mission. The first one turns out to be straightforward, but the second one sees Maric forming his own army. It's the only way he can combat a powerful figure still wanted by the War Crimes tribunal for atrocities during the Balkan wars.

The Count has finally been unmasked, and traced to a base in the tortuous Albanian mountains. Maric's reconnaissance team has six days to get in and out with enough intel for the main NATO/US task force before it parachutes in. Then things start to go wrong. The operation is far more than the laundering of blood diamonds to fund the Count's various criminal interests around the globe. If Maric doesn't act fast, it will be the rebirth of fundamentalist terrorism on a scale never seen before. The NATO ground forces are closing in on the mountain base when they come under fire from a storm of cruise missiles. Where are they coming from, and how can they be stopped?

It has taken four years of fighting, four years of research and invention at Prometheus - with a lot of help - and four years of building the Alliance of Planets into a force that can take on the rapacious expansion of the Navscar cells from the Core. Extraordinary individuals have helped the Alliance every step of the way. The Shellport leadership that finally crushed the power of the Descendants of the Prophet, Fedic Vits' life-threatening missions, and the personal journeys of Celia, Manoba, and Asura as they strive to keep the Alliance fighting back. Now, finally, the big questions can be answered. Why was humanity transplanted to Earth 200 thousand years ago? What caused the Caerbrindii to split into three constantly warring races countless millennia ago? And how can the Alliance destroy the alien city in the Antares sun, and force the Navscar back to the Core?

Haunted by a mistake that cost lives during his second tour of duty in Afghanistan, Maric buries his demons in the farming communities of New Zealand - until his old SAS boss pulls him back to a world he has struggled to forget. Some of his SAS comrades, now retired, have died in suspicious circumstances. Maric follows the trail to the Finn, a gun for hire who models himself on Carlos the Jackal. Determined to avenge their deaths, he joins an undercover operation deep into headhunter territory in Kalimantan (Borneo). He and his team are expected to test experimental weapons decades ahead of their time, and destroy the diamond smuggling operation that is funding an East European crime syndicate. He soon discovers the Finn is heading a security force of Spetsnaz and mercs, and his plans start to unravel. Will Maric be able to signal the main force for a HA/LO drop over the Kalimantan jungle in time? Can he assimilate into his team the intel officers forced on him by the mission's financial backers? How will he get his teammates back when some of them are captured? Will he be able to best the Finn?

A vastly superior alien race has boiled out of the galactic core, bent on expansion into Human and Sumerian space, and giant sun ships have annihilated everything the Alliance has been able to throw against them. Regent Cordez has ferried in the agile minds of the Mersa to find new ways of looking at star ships, and made contact with the Druani, an ancient and elusive race that inhabits the fringes of the galaxy. Research teams have leaped generations to find the technology they need, working out of the giant Prometheus base on Proteus, one of the moons of Neptune, but the Alliance is pushed back to toeholds on their key planets. With the Alliance in disarray the alien invaders set up bases in the streaming tails of fire that rip between the suns of binary systems. Civil war rages across the medieval planet Hud as the Descendants of the Prophet are pushed back toward Roum, and Celia's research team crosses half the Spiral Arm in a desperate effort to solve a mystery that might put the Alliance back in the fight.

A vastly superior alien race boils out of the galactic core, bent on expansion into Human and Sumerian space. Giant sun ships annihilate everything thrown against them. Only Regent Cordez, of the SouthAm trading block, has any sort of plan to stop the invaders. He ferries in the agile minds of the Mersa, from a previously isolated quarantine planet, and makes contact with the Druani, an ancient and elusive race that inhabits the fringes of the galaxy. Cordez' research teams leap generations in months to find the technology they need, working out of the giant Prometheus base on one of the moons of Neptune. But still the people of Earth are forced back, until their planet is on fire from end to end, until Prometheus discovers that humanity's ideas about its origins are all wrong. It is the ultimate shock - and the new beginning they need.
