The Assassin Guild Books in Order

Six colonies remain occupied by aliens while the main enemy fleets investigate another threat. Unable to free them by conventional military force, the colonists offer payment to assassins willing to strike the occupiers from within.

Centuries after nuclear war reduced Earth to farming communities, colonial traders exploit its people through unfair prices. Resentment drives Earth back toward technology, creating a growing challenge to the advanced colonies that once abandoned it.

The Cyrens threaten human colonies unless Earth attacks the Brotherhood, forcing Admiral Talent into battle with a small fleet. Defeating one enemy could expose the colonies to another, leaving commanders searching for a workable strategy.

A returning human fleet expects celebrations, but news of a destroyed colony warship interrupts its homecoming. The Brotherhood, a civilization descended from a religion expelled from Earth, now threatens humanity’s vulnerable settlements in Andromeda.
