Books and Series

Just the one series so far, but I’ve got at least two more in the mill. For now, please enjoy Starships and Sorcery!

Starships and Sorcery is a fantasy series set a thousand years in the future, when magic surges across the galaxy. With a cast of humans, elves, dwarves, and nanobots, it’s a gritty tale of adventure, mystery, and magic.

Here are the blurbs:

The Magus Gene: Awakening

Magic flows through the Milky Way. All are scanned before birth. When a starship mechanic casts spells, he becomes the galaxy’s most wanted outlaw.

Mack Rivera fixes starships for a living. He loves coastal drives, carne asada-flavored ramen, his high school sweetheart, and his scholarship at Terran Galactic New Cal. When his life is threatened, dormant magic surges to the surface, and the spells he casts save his life.

The problem is, the prenatal scan missed his magical aptitude, and every spell-slinger is registered by the Bureau of Enchanted Action and Management before they’re even born.

Arrested and transferred into the custody of starship captain Andromeda “Andry” Krios, a maverick bounty hunter, Mack is bound for a government space station known as “The Chop Shop.” But Mack has powerful friends that are willing to risk everything to keep him safe. The elves’ own Empyrean Star Navy interdicts, but they end up on the wrong side of a bandit fleet intent on adding Mack to their ranks.

The Magus Gene: Dominion

Hunted by an elite team of spell-casters, Mack faces off against his most challenging foes, yet. With an elven prince, a cat girl, a giant, and sentient nanobots at their side, Mack and Andry join forces to defeat an ancient foe with deadly intentions.

Meanwhile, Mack’s older sister, Eridani gets pulled into the fray. She rallies a crew and uncovers the secret that can topple the tyrannical Bureau.

It’s a race across alien worlds, neon cities, and space stations as they unravel the threads of a deep-rooted conspiracy. The key to their survival—and the galaxy’s future—may lie in the very magic coursing through Mack’s veins.

Magic of the Third Moon (Pre-order only)

The laws of magic can be broken. On the third moon of a gas giant, enigmatic forces have a will of their own.

Mack, Frostshadow, Cajun, Himari, Lhunduin, Malmoradan, and Nimbus agree to help one of Cajun’s old friends complete a delivery to a mysterious moon that orbits a Jovian planet in a nearby system. When they become marooned on a world where outsiders are not welcome, Mack and his friends must survive their wondrous and deadly surroundings while befriending the native inhabitants–the only ones who can help them find a way home.

Something on the surface prevents magic from regenerating. When invaders put the natives’ lives at risk, the heroes must rely on grit and quick thinking to uncover the mystery behind how the invaders arrived and how to stop them. During their investigation, they uncover a shocking truth about the moon’s very nature that has far-reaching consequences.
