The Ghost Ship Protocol: Book One of The Derelict Wars

For fans of Firefly, The Expanse, and Mass Effect comes a high-stakes space opera about outlaws, betrayal, and a deadly secret the galaxy was never meant to see again.

Captain Thalen Arvos, once a decorated navy officer, now leads a ragtag salvage crew on the edge of Imperial space. When they uncover a buried dreadnought marked with a forbidden seal—Ghost Ship Protocol—they awaken an AI locked away since the last great war.

Now syndicates, warlords, and the Empire itself are hunting them. To survive, the crew must risk everything, navigating shifting loyalties, forbidden technology, and the impossible choice between unleashing or destroying a weapon that could change the fate of the galaxy.

Packed with starship battles, rogue AIs, and a fractured crew who become something more, The Ghost Ship Protocol launches The Derelict Wars trilogy, a thrilling saga of survival and rebellion in a galaxy on the brink.
