Last year we put together an anthology ebook of stories set exclusively in our Terran Shift universe. The result is a collection of seven stories from five authors, spanning from the high-tech cyberpunk dystopia of the Bio-Tech Era to the Sol-Bect War Era.
When we originally released this ebook, we decided to make it an Amazon Kindle exclusive, because we wanted to see firsthand what that would do for (or against) the book. Now that that period of exclusivity has expired, we decided to make the ebook available to other stores. I have uploaded the ebook to Smashwords, and it will be sent to all the other stores that Smashwords syndicates to in the next few weeks.

The Sol-Bect War, Part 1 is now available on Libboo.
Humanity is near the tail end of an intergalactic war with an alien race called the Bect — a war we are losing. The only thing we have in shorter supply than combat pilots is hope.
After a rough skirmish, a strange object is picked up by the United Earth carrier Ticonderoga. Within the object, the ship’s scientists find something even stranger: a man, cryogenically frozen and shot into space more than 300 years ago. The fact that he’s still technically alive raises questions of Fate’s hand in life and war.

The Sol-Bect War Saga
This is just the first part of The Sol-Bect War saga… also from Lost Luggage Studios:
The war against the Bect rages on. Humanity, after spending years reacting and retreating, is now on the offensive. The Bect show no sign of letting up on their assault, however, and begin to send larger forces against us. Our weapons and tactics may have improved, but our forces are beginning to dwindle.
And the strange newcomer who showed us a path to victory, Peter McCabe, is Missing-In-Action and presumed dead. Can the human war machine complete what he started?

This anthology includes The Sol-Bect Setup, the thrilling lost chapter in which Peter McCabe visits the past to lay the groundwork for his future.
