The SPACE OPERA BUNDLE is a power-packed science fiction collaboration between #1 New York Times bestseller Scott Sigler and award-winning novelists and podcasters Matt Wallace, Mur Lafferty, and Paul E.

Book I: THE ROOKIE
Book II THE STARTER
Book III: THE ALL-PRO
Book IV: THE MVP
Book V: THE CHAMPION
The novellas included in the SPACE OPERA BUNDLE:
TITLE FIGHT
Undefeated galactic heavyweight champion Korak the Cutter has crushed all challengers, destroying everyone in his path, but the wins aren't as easy as they used to be. After a decade of perfect fighting, his age is catching up with him. He’s slowing down, and speed is the name of the game in mixed martial arts.
He faces the savage and unpredictable Chiyal "The Heretic" North. As crime lords and promoters try to fix the fight, and as managers cling to dreams of lost glory, Korak and Chiyal must find their way into the octagon to decide once and for all who is the greatest of all time.
Co-written by #1 New York Times bestseller Scott Sigler and Parsec Award-winning author Matt Wallace, TITLE FIGHT delivers a scifi/mma one-two knockout.
THE DETECTIVE
GFL star Quentin Barnes is an orphan born into a culture that prizes family connections above all. He spent his youth struggling with poverty. When he signed his deal with the Ionath Krakens and became rich, one of the first things he did was hire a private detective to find out if his family is still alive.
THE DETECTIVE is the story of that search, as seen through the eyes of Frederico Esteban Guissepe Gonzaga — a.k.a. "Fred," a master of disguise and a truly dangerous Human. Fred's past is just as big a mystery as is the whereabouts of Quentin's family. This gritty scifi/noir novel follows the tradition of ALTERED CARBON and BLADE RUNNER — an anti-hero that won't stop until the job is done.
GFL TIMELINE: This story runs from roughly Week Seven of the 2683 regular season in THE STARTER through Week Ten of the 2684 regular season in THE ALL-PRO (GFL Book III).
THE REPORTER
Yolanda Davenport, star reporter for Galaxy Sports Magazine, is searching for the truth about Ju Tweedy’s involvement with the murder of Grace McDermot. Ju had to flee Orbital System One following the murder accusation. That led him to join Ionath Krakens, but Ju still claims innocence. Was Ju framed for this horrible crime?
GFL TIMELINE: The story takes place between Week Three and Week Six of the 2684 GFL season, the season that encompasses THE ALL-PRO (GFL Book III).
THE RIDER
Armored little people riding armored dinosaurs in a full-contact bloodsport? Welcome to Dinolition,
Star rider Poughkeepsie Pete and his T-Rex mount “Old Bess” are fixtures and Pete has to manage a league commissioner with a God complex, deal with a devious team owner, navigate a web of organized crime trying to fix matches, and dodge religious zealots set on killing him and the dinos alike — all while grooming the next generation of riders that will carry the sport into a new age of glory.
In Dinolition, authors Paul E. Cooley and #1 New York Times bestseller Scott Sigler give “ride till ya die” a whole new meaning.
GFL TIMELINE: This story takes place in the month of August, 2683. It begins at the same time as Chapter 2 of THE ALL-PRO (GFL Book III).
The Galactic Football League is a series of scifi/crime/sports mashup books that sets a star-spanning hero’s quest against the backdrop of a far-future American pro football league. Intricate world building and aliens that truly “alien,” from a #1 New York Times bestselling author.
