Fallen by Patrick Abbott Military Sci-Fi #StoriesThatLinger #MilitarySciFi

Brendan Murphy nearly died fighting for his country.

Now he's trying to stop a war.

Five years ago, alien ship appeared in low orbit all around the world and stayed there, waiting. A highly advanced alien race known as the Sabia lingered with little contact with humanity, and the worlds' governments have been eager for answers – and access- for years.

When combat veteran Brendan Murphy is wounded stopping an attack on a Sabia diplomat, he finds himself whisked aboard one of their ships and given medical aid. This rare opportunity finds him walking a tenuous line between burgeoning friendships and secret agenda that will test his loyalties and sanity in ways he can't begin to imagine.

REVIEW

Fallen by Patrick Abbott Military Sci-Fi #StoriesThatLinger #MilitarySciFiSome science fiction explodes.

Some science fiction lingers.

And then there are stories like Fallenβ€”the kind that begin with a battlefield wound and quietly unfold into something far more dangerous: trust.

Five years ago, alien ships appeared in low orbit around Earth and simply... stayed. No invasion. No conquest. No explanation. The Sabia hover above humanity like a question no one knows how to answer.

Governments want access. Power. Leverage.

Brendan Murphy just wants peace.

A decorated combat veteran nearly killed in action, Brendan is wounded protecting a Sabia diplomat from attack. Instead of dying, he wakes aboard an alien vesselβ€”healed, watched, and suddenly positioned at the center of something far larger than himself.

This is where Fallen becomes more than military sci-fi.

It becomes intimate.

Intellection Forward Marketing asks a simple question: what core drive does a story satisfy?

For science fiction readers, the answer often lives at the intersection of Loyalty and Meaning.

Brendan is not a reckless hero chasing spectacle. He's a soldier navigating allegianceβ€”to his country, to his species, and to individuals he is only beginning to understand. The Sabia are not faceless invaders. They are layered, restrained, operating on motives humanity may not yet be equipped to interpret.

The tension isn't just political.

It's relational.

What happens when connection forms across species lines?
What does loyalty look like when truth is fragmented?
How do you choose peace when everyone around you is preparing for war?

Fallen respects the reader's intelligence. It doesn't shout its themes. It trusts you to sit in the uncertainty. The alien presence is not merely backdropβ€”it's a catalyst for emotional and ethical reckoning.

For readers who crave:

  • Cross-cultural tension
  • Military realism grounded in character
  • Relationships shaped by trust under pressure
  • Big-idea military sci-fi with personal stakes

This book is worth your attention.

Because sometimes the most dangerous battlefield isn't fought with weapons.

It's fought with loyalty.

If you enjoy military sci-fi that lingersβ€”stories where the alien unknown becomes a mirror for human choiceβ€”Fallen offers that quiet, compelling "what if" that stays with you long after the last page.

Explore the book and discover a story where survival is only the beginning.

Sacremon by Michael Chatfield

Action-packed Gritty Military Scifi, Hard Scifi, Ground combat, Corporatocracy

Stay in Earth's slums or carve out a life in Earth's Military Forces.

Two brothers make a choice that will change their lives forever.

Mark and his brother Tyler survived the slums with guns in their hands and blades up their sleeves.

Those skills won't get them hired at a corporation, but the Troopers are always looking for a few trained killers. The EMF offers education, medical care, food, and real pay.

They have a chance at a new life, one where they don't have to worry about a rival gang killing them in the street. With a thirty-five-year EMF contract, the Victor brothers might have a new life. It comes at a hefty cost.

But peace doesn't last. And the EMF doesn't care how many troopers dieβ€”as long as they complete their mission.

It’s a relentless chase through the cosmos #SciFiBooks The Oracle: Jay Toney #MilSF

The Oracle by Jay Toney #MilitarySciFi #MilSF #ScienceFiction #SciFiBooks

The Oracle by Jay Toney #MilitarySciFi #MilSF #ScienceFiction #SciFiBooksA simple robbery goes wrong, and Devon and Persephone must flee for their lives.

An exciting space adventure

A Short Storyβ€” Previously published in SavagePlanets Magazine, October 2023 edition. They were abandoned by their crew. Hunted by the Alliance. Alone in a dead system… until they found the Oracle.

What begins as a desperate escape from a botched raid turns into a journey neither Devon nor Persephone could have imagined. Pursued by military patrols and stranded far from any hope of rescue, they seek refuge on a desolate worldβ€”one no map claims, and no scanner should detect life upon.

But something ancient waits in the silence.

A bubble of living earth. A mysterious obelisk. And a voice that speaks across eons.

Now, with enemies closing in, the lovers must choose: surrender to the life they've known, or step through a door to the unknownβ€”a second chance at paradise, or a final trap.

Blending gritty space opera with spiritual science fiction, The Oracle is a tale of survival, transformation, and the mysterious forces guiding destiny among the stars.

The Oracle

In the depths of a forsaken star system, Devon and Persephone find themselves at a turning point. A heist gone awry has stripped them of their crew and thrust them into a perilous chase. The Alliance, merciless and relentless, closes in, driven by a singular aim: to reclaim their lost assets at any cost. Stranded on a desolate planet, one that defies the very logic of known maps, they confront the fragility of their situation.

This world holds secrets, marking it as both refuge and prison. As they struggle against the harsh environment and their fading hope, remnants of an ancient civilization emerge. An enigmatic obelisk stands tall, a silent watcher of forgotten histories and dormant knowledge. Whispers resonate in the void, echoing themes of fate and choices long past.

In their pursuit of safety, Devon and Persephone must face not only the threat of their pursuers but also the weight of their own decisions. As their bond deepens, the path before them splits into two: one leads back to the life they once knew, while the other beckons toward an uncertain and untamed new reality. In this desolation, the Oracle presents itself, but is it offering sanctuary, or something far more ancient?

Survival isn’t just a goal; it’s a test of identity in Void Soldier by Logan Shields #SciFiBooks #MilSF #MilitarySciFi

Void Soldier by Logan Shields #SciFiBooks #MilSF #MilitarySciFi

Void Soldier by Logan Shields #SciFiBooks #MilSF #MilitarySciFiEarth's most elite space force.

Perfectly trained. Completely expendable. Endlessly reusable.

In a world where recruits disappear and assets return, humanity is measured in memories kept. Jack Rourke has nothing left in his dying rust-belt town except a fractured family and a future going nowhere.

When a mysterious government program offers escape, he takes itβ€”only to discover he's not being trained, but transformed.

Stripped of his name, assigned a number, and subjected to brutal conditioning on an orbital station, Jack realizes this isn't military recruitmentβ€”it's human processing.

As the system methodically erases his identity, Jack forms an alliance with fellow recruit Connor, preserving fragments of themselves through whispered memories in the dark.

But when the final test comesβ€”a deadly seven-day survival gauntlet on an airless asteroidβ€”Jack must decide: become the perfect asset they demand, or hold onto the humanity they're determined to erase.

Some soldiers are made. Others are unmade.

Void Soldier by Logan Shields

In a time when Earth's landscapes have crumbled under the weight of neglect, those left behind cling to the edge of despair. Jack Rourke emerges from one such place, a rust-belt town where echoes of former lives linger in the air and hope has become a distant memory. He possesses only the fragments of a fractured family and a life that drifts aimlessly toward oblivion. The government recruits young men and women, promising a chance at a brighter future, yet these offers come with hidden costs.

When Jack takes the opportunity to join a program he does not fully understand, he steps into a world stripped of individuality. Within the sterile confines of an orbital training station, recruits become mere numbers, their pasts erased by the relentless machine of military ambition. Each moment on the station is a fight against the mechanism designed to mold them into perfect soldiers, devoid of emotion, driven only by obedience and efficiency.

Within this system, Jack discovers a kindred spirit in Connor, another recruit desperately holding onto memories that the program seeks to obliterate. Their whispers in the darkness become a lifeline, an anchor against the storm of transformation they face. But as the gauntlet approachesβ€”an unforgiving test that requires total submission to the forces stripping away their identitiesβ€”Jack must confront his reality.

Every choice becomes a conflict between survival and the instinct to retain his humanity, a tension that rises with each passing day. In the military's ruthless vision, some soldiers are crafted from the raw material of men, while others are reduced to whispers of who they once were.

Forget the ballroom, Valeria's ready to take on the galaxy πŸš€πŸŽ΅ Who needs fancy dresses when you can fly a starship? #PilotLife #GalacticEmpire #SciFi

Beats of Love by Jacqueline Westwoods

When you fall in love with a secret alien noble bastard...

A spacecraft accident made her crash into a mysterious empire soldier.

Valeria, a coming-of-age heir of a noble house within the Galactic Empire, was eager to prove herself through her piloting skills rather than dancing at parties.

But her debut flight to Zafirah, the capital city of the empire, was nearly disastrous and led her into great danger, confronting rebellious native tribes. Valeria's last breath was almost gone, but she was luckily saved by an empire soldier, Geoffrey.

These two young people face different identity issues. Their meeting sparked a flame, but class differences tore them apart.

The fire ignited within their hearts soon spirals out of control. If they embrace true love, how will their desire clash against their family and political obligations? Do they dare to choose love above family, duty, and even fate?

Tales of the E4 Mafia by Barb Caffrey et al. #SciFi #MilSF #Military

As a former E4 myself, I'm proud to share a military sci-fi anthology featuring one of my favorite editors and an altogether awesome person - Barb Caffrey.

Tales of the E4 Mafia

Edited by Keith Hedger. Authors: Andrew Heymann, Barb Caffrey, Charles R Scott, Chris Sommercorn, Dan Kemp, Gaige Mosher, Gail Sanders, Joshua Hill, Keith Hedger, Michael LaVoice, Ray Daley, Scott Rieche, and Jacqui Venturini (Illustrator).

They are specialists, corporals, and petty officers. They are the military personnel who have learned some leadership and gained expertise in their specialty. "Work smarter, not harder" is their watch phrase, followed by "If you aren't cheating, you aren't trying."

They are masters of avoiding work, getting up to shenanigans, and, when a mission needs to be completed or job done, it's an E-4 that others turn to. They are the near mythical E-4 Mafia, and their ability to avoid work, solve problems, and create trouble is the stuff of legend.

Here are eleven stories of the E-4 Mafia in a variety of settings and situations that are sure to thrill and entertain anyone with an interest in military fiction, science fiction, a sense of humor and the curiosity to peek under the rug to see what got swept there when something needed done.

Against All Odds: A Military Sci-Fi Series by Jeffery H Haskell #MilSF #SciFi #Military

Against All Odds: A Military Sci-Fi Series by Jeffery H Haskell #MilSF #SciFi #Military

Against All Odds

The wrong crew. The wrong ship. The right Captain.

Idealistic navy lieutenant Jacob Grimm just wanted to honor his mother's sacrifice in the last great war. When he's forced to return fire and destroy a squadron of ships to save his own, he thinks he's the hero…

Until they discover the ships are full of children.

Disgraced and denied promotion, Jacob's career is over. That is until the head of ONI needs a disposable officer to command a battered destroyer on the rim.

There's just one problem, Interceptor hasn't had a CO in months and the ship is a mess. Worse, the system he's assigned to is corrupt and on the verge of all-out civil war with the Alliance.

However, no one told Jacob he was disposable.

Pirates, smugglers, and Caliphate spies complicate the situation and one captain with an old ship can't enforce the law, let alone stop anyone.

The single greatest discovery of all time is about to change intergalactic politics forever. If Jacob doesn't find a way to succeed, then it won't just be the end of the Alliance, it will be the end of freedom for humanity.

From USA Today bestselling author Jeffery H. Haskell comes a military science fiction epic in the tradition of Honor Harrington and Star Trek. If you love heroes and starships, you will love to stand with Commander Jacob T. Grimm Against all Odds. You're in the Navy now!

"Against All Odds is classic space fleet military science fiction in the tradition of David Weber, with memorable characters and thrilling action. Haskell is a new shining star in the genre." --Rick Partlow, author of Contact Front
