Begin with Lives Across the Line, then continue Niva and Mira’s story in No Light Alone. Both illustrated novels are available in Kindle, paperback and hardcover.
Book One
Two pilots. Two authorities. One inhabited frontier caught between them. At the start of the First Colonial War, Coalition pilot Niva Rell and Imperial pilot Mira Kest meet across a failing rescue line. Neither can trust the other’s orders. Neither can ignore the people trapped between them. An illustrated military science-fiction novel about duty, disputed authority and the fragile systems that keep ordinary lives alive.

Book Two
They can save the same people and still meet on opposite sides of a weapon line. An altered chart turns Niva Rell and Mira Kest’s civilian convoy passage into an ambush. Arrival does not settle the attack: Niva is ordered to stop a disputed handover, and Mira is ordered to protect it. Transforming aircraft, divided duty and the cost of getting people home shape the second illustrated Vector Shift novel.
