Bøger i Scattered Stars: Conviction serien

An offer that no one else could matchA mission that no one else could achieveAn enemy only a few know they share... Commodore Kira Demirci is now the commander of a small but powerful mercenary force-one of the most dangerous in the cluster of stars she now calls home. Her own actions have brought peace to the Syntactic Cluster, though, and a mercenary is in limited demand.A mutual interest brings her into the circle of the heir to the Royal Crest, a wealthy kingdom dozens of light-years away. Jade Panosyan has a nightmare brewing-and a plan to deal with it.In the Crest, a powerful political party beholden to Kira's own enemies is maneuvering to remove Jade's father before he can free a dozen star systems from the clutches of the Equilibrium Institute. If they are to fail and the Institute's plans be thwarted once more, Jade Panosyan needs someone to complete an impossible mission.The payment? The fleet carrier Fortitude, unmatched by any ship within a hundred light-years.The catch? Kira Demirci has to capture the carrier-from the elite forces of her employer's nation!

A peaceful world in the crosshairsA rising threat armed by an old foeA call to arms she can't ignore...Admiral Kira Demirci lost the coin toss with her second-in-command and was supposed to be taking a holiday. That meant waiting in the Redward System while Memorial Force's new carrier Huntress was commissioned and turned over to the mercenary space fleet.But when a stranger arrives looking to hire Memorial Force to protect her homeworld, Kira finds money, boredom and altruism combining to bring her into action. The majority of her fleet is elsewhere, but she has two heavy warships, including Huntress. More than enough to protect the pacifist system of Samuels from their neighbors.Those neighbors were armed by Kira's old foes in the Brisingr System, and she smells the hand of the Equilibrium Institute behind the scheme. A chance to protect the innocent and frustrate two old foes at once is hard to turn down-and even if things go wrong, the rest of her fleet is on their way.She's planned for everything. Hasn't she?

The star system of Apollo has fallen!Her fleets are scattered and her enemies victorious.Apollo's last hope: an exile mercenary coming home at last!Ace pilot Kira Demirci fled her home system of Apollo five years ago. Betrayed by her own government and one step ahead of enemy assassins, she smuggled a squadron of star fighters into the Outer Rim and forged a mercenary fleet of old friends and new alike.Many of the aces of Apollo's war against Brisingr weren't as lucky.Kira has a new home, but a scheme hatched by her enemies has brought her to the edge of her old stomping grounds. This close to Apollo, she's one of the first to hear the devastating news: Brisingr has achieved its ultimate victory and captured her home. To take a star system should be impossible, but the reality is clear.With family, friends and old comrades in the hands of the Brisingr Kaiserreich, Kira mobilizes her mercenary fleet to seek out the scattered remains of Apollo's fleets and allies.Even if she can manage the merely difficult and bring the broken factions together, the hard truth remains: Brisingr's victory was impossible. To undo it, Kira will have to duplicate it...
