Birth of the Rim: Books 1-2
(2024)(A book in the Birth of Rim series)
An omnibus of novels by Phil Huddleston
Jake Hammett was selected. He didn't volunteer. He just got the job handed to him, like it or not.
Time to get busy and do it.
Imprint of Blood - Book 1
A distant Star Empire ruled by ancient Amazon warriors, forgotten by Earth for 3,000 years. In the other direction, an implacable alien enemy, bent to destroy every human on Earth. A final warning from an AI starship, who just happens to like humans - and makes damn good vodka screwdrivers! All dumped into the laps of three unlikely lovers. Now they must build a space navy from scratch - forge an alliance with an ancient matriarchy who shoots first and asks questions later – and prepare to fight a cruel and unmerciful enemy!
Good luck with that!
Imprint of War - Book Two
64 years after Pandora gave her warning to Earth – the RDF has grown to be a powerful space navy – but not yet strong enough to take on the Bat Empire. As the Bats move ever closer to humanity, Jake knows that only through an alliance with the ruthless matriarchy known as the Aeolian Empire is there any hope for Earth. Doing everything possible to prepare for the coming war, Jake has one ace in the hole…his secret visit to Aeolis forty-six years ago left him with a granddaughter. Will Princess Hecate of Aeolis be able to change the destiny of Earth?
BONUS NOVELLA - Artemis War
How did the Amazons even get to Aeolis? And why did Pandora come to Earth and warn humanity, selecting Jake Hammett to save us? Here is the back story of how it came about, a fitting bookend to the first two volumes of this series.
