A fleet of warships operated by the digitized minds of former humans. An unknown enemy lurking in the dark of space. The one man who hopes to conquer them both. Jain was the lieutenant commander of an elite SEAL team. He was accustomed to order and discipline, which he used to give the men under his command that particular brand of killer instinct his unit was known for. But one day that semi-comfortable, ordered life ended when he opened his eyes to find his body replaced by a starship. His mind had become its AI core. He is somewhere in deep space. Most of his systems are badly damaged. He has no memory of how he got here, or what his mission is. Evidence points to an attack by an unknown entity. He finds other damaged vessels in the vicinity and reactivates them. They, too, have no memory of the events leading up to their current situation. Jain, thrust into a leadership role, soon learns that commanding a fleet of starships isn't all that different from leading a platoon of SEALs. It helps that his database is chock-full of tactics and military strategies gleaned from every space battle humanity has ever fought. As he and his fleet explore their surroundings and slowly piece together what happened to them, they realize their attacker is not from any human system. And that any misstep means not only the loss of his fleet, but potentially all of humanity itself.

From USA Today Bestselling Author Isaac Hooke comes this fantastic tale of unexpected first contact. Indie Book of the Day Award Winner The world as we know it is about to end. Hoodwink Cooper has been sentenced to death. His crime? Attempting to blast a hole in the Forever Gate, the colossal wall that surrounds the city and protects the denizens from the uninhabitable Outside. There's only one problem - he isn't the one who planted the bomb. His daughter did, at the behest of a secretive society known as the Users. As the gols, the humanlike automata who have enslaved the humans, prepare to carry out Hoodwink's sentence, the Users plot even greater turmoil. If Hoodwink gives up the ghost without first extricating his daughter from their clutches, she will most likely join him in the afterlife. What Hoodwink and the Users don't realize is that they are all pawns in a greater game whose stakes are the very survival of humanity itself. Will Hoodwink escape in time to save his daughter? More importantly, will he break free of the invisible forces that guide him? Or will he succumb to the domination of his unseen masters and cause the breaking of the world, losing not just his daughter, but everything? >>>THE FOREVER GATE combines elements of science fiction & fantasy to evoke a unique setting entirely unlike anything you've ever read before. For fans of science fiction, fantasy, and LitRPG.

The epic conclusion to the Forever Gate saga. Hoodwink risks everything to destroy the Satori mothership in orbit. Tanner hunts down the rogue Children responsible for the upheaval on the Inside. Ari battles Amoch's army in a desperate last stand to save the city of Kismet. Three perilous paths. One death-defying journey to save us all.

Hoodwink reunites with Ari and Tanner as the Satori mothership bears down on Ganymede. Meanwhile, Amoch's army plots death and destruction on the Inside, drawing much needed resources away from the battle against the aliens. Desperate times require desperate plans. Are Hoodwink, Ari and Tanner up for the task? Of course they are. That is, until a few old enemies show up.

Hoodwink returns to Earth to find the world conquered by the alien race known as the Satori. The few humans who remain are oppressed, little more than slaves waiting to house the consciousnesses of their Satori masters. Robots patrol the streets and drones rule the skies, keeping the populace in check. More than anything Hoodwink wants to journey to Ganymede to help Ari and Tanner, but he is trapped on that bleak planet. So instead he assumes human form and joins other Satori surrogates in one of the conquered cities. Eventually he comes to terms with his new life and accepts that humanity cannot be saved. And then one day he meets a strange woman who changes everything.

Ari and Tanner investigate a series of peculiar occurrences in the virtual world of the Inside that point to the rebirth of One, the rogue AI that nearly destroyed them all in the last adventure. Soon Ari and Tanner find themselves embroiled in a plot that could lead to all out war on the Inside. Hibernating colonists begin to awaken en masse from the digital world, straining the already meager resources of the generation ship that houses them. If Ari and Tanner do not prevail, the last vestiges of humankind could be wiped from the galaxy, their sole legacy: a lifeless generation ship lying in pieces on the Jovian moon of Ganymede.

At the end of Book 4, Hoodwink returned to the Outside and departed in a small vessel, apparently abandoning Tanner and the rest of humanity to their fate. Now Tanner must fight alone against the threat raged by One, the rampant, seemingly invincible AI. Will Tanner find a way to defeat the AI before the world of the Inside is completely destroyed? Meanwhile, will Hoodwink save the daughter he gave up everything for and, more importantly, will he betray humanity to do it?
