Coming January 2026 from Baen Books (Blue earned her mama bear status for a reason) “Stand up,” she ordered with an impatient gesture. His expression remained impassive, but a hint of wariness touched his eyes as he swiftly unbuckled his harness. Blue backed into the aisle to give him room to stand. When he rose … Continue reading TO TREAD OBSIDIAN SHORES — Snippet 11

TO TREAD OBSIDIAN SHORES — Snippet 10
Coming January 2026 from Baen Books (Welcome back to the party, Tavi!) The rattle of reentry broke into her bloodthirsty daydreams and her hands tightened on the seat once more. They’d barely broken orbit over Mars Primus, so why were they dropping back in? More importantly, if they were landing because they needed repairs, would … Continue reading TO TREAD OBSIDIAN SHORES — Snippet 10

Coming January 2026 to a bookstore near you! Blue casually swiped through the messages, but straightened up abruptly when she saw the last one was from her grandfather. She honestly hadn’t expected to hear anything further from the old man, who was notoriously reclusive and somewhat of a luddite when it came to using technology. … Continue reading TO TREAD OBSIDIAN SHORES — Snippet 9

Coming January 2026 but you can preorder today! (in which we discover just why Blue wants to hurry up and get off planet...) “It’s not just the deployment, it’s the timing,” she growled as she slung her bag over her shoulder again. “I’m going to miss the birth of my godson!” “You’ll be back soon enough.” … Continue reading TO TREAD OBSIDIAN SHORES — Snippet 8

CHAPTER ONE The Hotshot LAUNCH TERMINAL DIACRIA, MARS PRIMUS If everything had gone to plan, Lieutenant Astra Eliassen would never have joined the Legion. She never would’ve been a dropship pilot, never been saddled with the callsign “Blue,” never had to catch a transport shuttle and return to active duty after her leave was cut … Continue reading TO TREAD OBSIDIAN SHORES — Snippet 7
TO TREAD OBSIDIAN SHORES — Snippet 6
(Another short one, but that's because it's the end of the prologue. ~Jason) Coming January 2026 Four men from the group rushed in to attack. Beside him, Diego heard Captain Rhys sigh and mutter under his breath. “Hot-blooded zealots always have a hard time learning . . .” The two corporals moved simultaneously. Aires caught a punch from … Continue reading TO TREAD OBSIDIAN SHORES — Snippet 6

(A short snippet today ~Jason) Coming January 2026 With Corporal Jeffe leading the way, the trio of enlisted exited the building and stood in front of the door in the warm, poisonous rain of Myrkyma. Sergeant Buckholz looked around at the gathered mob and snorted derisively. “Unless you are here to join the Legion, you … Continue reading TO TREAD OBSIDIAN SHORES — Snippet 5

“Yes, sir!” Sergeant Buckholz grinned from ear to ear. “Jeffe, Aires? You heard the captain. Suit up. I’ll get on the horn with Klysgaard.” “Come with me, Recruit Tavi.” The captain turned and walked towards the three flags on the poles behind Sergeant Buckholz’s desk. Unsure, Diego followed, and stopped a few feet away from … Continue reading TO TREAD OBSIDIAN SHORES — Snippet 4

Coming January 2026 from Baen Books “Good.” Sergeant Buckholz leaned forward, and his voice changed subtly. “This isn’t an easy life, Diego. We go where the Protectorate needs us to go. We’ve had peace for many years, which is why most people think they want to join. Free education, land, money, glory . . . whatever drives kids these … Continue reading TO TREAD OBSIDIAN SHORES — Snippet 3

I Thought It Had Only Been Two Weeks!
I thought only two weeks had passed since I'd last updated. I was WRONG. Oops. My bad. I'm on a vacation of sorts right now (first time I've done this and not been at a science fiction convention in a long time) but I figured I would update everyone on the crazy life of Cordova. … Continue reading I Thought It Had Only Been Two Weeks!
Crazy Train to the South
What a crazy few weeks it has been! Packing up to move was an adventure, to say the least. It was one of those last-minute "Oh crap, we're leaving in 3 days and we're not finished packing!" sort of things. 1 star out of 5, do not recommend. But with the help of our friends … Continue reading Crazy Train to the South
