"Time is running out as Razon forces his captors to finish his ultimate weapon, the dreadnought class Harbinger, a weapon designed to face the might of the Avorans which is now being perverted to his own cause of ruling the Apeyron Empire and restoring its glory for himself.

With the Proteus fleet desperately searching the galaxy for Razon and the Emperor, things are not progressing well. With Emperor Tath now reluctantly leading his people it seems something is rotten at the heart of the Apeyron Senate, dark forces trying to subvert our friends efforts to find Razon. Slowly piecing together the true power of Razon's new weapon it becomes clear our friends are outclassed, facing an uncertain future. Tath amasses a fearsome fleet bringing all the Proteus family together to finally put an end to this war criminals madness and rescue his father from Razon's clutches.

As the final battle approaches the future is uncertain and Beletrix faces annihilation. Will our friend be able to succeed as they face the raw power of a planet killer?"

In this epic conclusion to the Natural Selection saga, New Horizons follow the young ships as they are forced to grow up rapidly, their new friend and their home facing the gravest threat to date as General Razon, now in the possession of the Harbinger, a monstrous ship designed to face the might of the Avorans, is hell bent on ending all threats to the Empire and claiming his throne. Fast paced and action packed, New Horizons takes you on a journey as the whole Proteus family pull together to ensure the safety of everything they hold dear, but do they possess the power to actually defeat this planet killer?

Also included is another Proteus Unhinged Mini Story, The Secrets of Alphius Prime.

 

Proteus Art - Koli's first visit to Kelik Station

In Proteus - The Last Survivor we learn the story of what happened to Koli's crew during the 300 years they were searching the galaxy and one part of that long story was their discovery of Kelik Station. Although they really had no clue what they would find, curiosity was a maddening thing. This tentative scene in the book is partly recreated here with Koli flying towards the massive station with no clue what they will find.

I actually started working on this ages ago, then forgot about it for some reason. Just added the finishing touches tonight and thought I would put it out.

Proteus Technial - Apeyron Flagship and Interceptor

Following on from the sneak peak at the Harbinger, I thought I should take a look at two other Apeyron ships that have featured heavily in both the Proteus Endless and Natural Selection Sagas.
The Apeyron have fearsome ships, but not all of them are for military purposes. The first datasheet is one of the Imperial Flagships. There are two in the books, Razon stole one of them and the other gets near enough wrecked in Evolution by Razon's forces. This is a big ship and it also forms the basis for their Science vessels although they are different.
The second picture is one of the Interceptor class of ship are small fast designs with mutifunctionality, working for both civilian and military use. These ships are however designed for speed more than firepower. Fans of the series will realise this is the ship that Tath escaped in to defect to the Alphian's cause.

Enjoy!

Proteus Art, and an update

Eyecandy first...
As you will have guessed at this point, I like to know what I am writing about and while being able to see something in your head is good, actually being able to physically see it in 3D is better.
This is the Harbinger, an Apeyron dreadnought class ship that will make its terrifying appearance in the upcoming Proteus New Horizons.
The two little ships by its side are Apeyron heavy cruisers, just do you get the idea of how big this thing is.

As for an update....
It may seem like things are quiet for me at the moment, but the truth is far from it and I am waiting to see how something works out before making an announcement. Lets just say I have been very busy working in the background.

Proteus New Horizons is currently being written and I have to admit, I have been distracted by other projects. Keep watching as which ever way this goes, it will be huge.

Here is the Blurb!

"With Loren and Lunar reunited, everyone is overjoyed at the resurrection of the youngest Proteus ship however she is not the youngest anymore with four new wilful and slightly potty new members of the Proteus family to deal with. As Terrik, Koli and Lunar return to Earth with the goal to ease Lunar through her trauma and help Terrik try to find her inner peace, the team on Beletrix is stretched to its limits as Saya and Miras search for suitable new worlds for the Apeyron to colonise.

However when an old foe reappears and threatens the peace they have fought hard to achieve the reckless and immature sisters decide to spring in to action putting themselves at risk facing off against powerful forces hell bent on destroying them.

Back on Earth, what should have been a therapeutic vacation for Koli, Terrik and Lunar quickly turns in to a rescue mission that could have disastrous consequences as the Earth ship Aurora begs Koli to help save her sisters. Knowing the dire warning from the future Koli and Flip must decide if they should undertake this risky mission knowing full well what the cost to the future will be.

Will our young heroes manage to survive their first adventure and will Koli, Lunar and Terrik rescue the stranded Avoran ships while ensuring the future for everyone does not fall in to darkness?"

This second part of the Natural Selection Saga, Evolution follows old and new friends as they get themselves in to a lot of trouble with dilemmas and action abound. For our youngest members of the Proteus Family they quickly find themselves in deep trouble facing a life or death situation as one of the hidden secrets of the Apeyron is forced in to the light of day. Back on Earth, a dark warning from the future comes full circle as the Earth ship Aurora asks for Koli's help leaving them with a terrible decision to make, to travel to the Avoran system and rescue Aurora's sisters or to refuse. This is a decision which Koli and Flip know could very well spell the end of everything!

Also included is another Proteus Unhinged Mini story, One Small Step.

 

Proteus Evolution - Meet the family

Proteus Evolution, the 8th book in the Proteus Series has finally hit the shelves and before I introduce the book itself, I thought I would introduce you to the newborn Proteus ships as well as a few other ships that feature in the book, specifically Aurora's family...

Enjoy!

Norcee is a third generation Titan class ship, although smaller than Miras she is quite frankly massive. She believes she is the groups leader but struggles with her siblings.

Hataka is unlike anything ever imagined by our friends. She is technically a Proteus Warship, heavily armoured and heavily armed. Looks can be rather deciving though as beyond her explosvie and aggressive nature she reads romance novels and is rather girly.

Cenya is not quite what she appears to be, a mini Titan of sorts she is no larger than Terrik or Lunar. She is lazy and can be explosive if you mention she is fat, but get to know her, she is hiding a secret from her sisters. She is seriously smart.

Qidgee is frankly a pain in the ass. She is hyperactive, annoying and plays far too many practical jokes. She is also the smallest and the fastest of the Proteus Fleet. She also tends to get herself in to a lot of trouble.

Corona is an Avoran Repair ship, and one that is highly unique and unusual. The Matriach of the Avoran ships, she cares for Aurora's sister ships Nova, Lumious and Pulsar, as well as the little experimental ship Eclipse. She is very old, fierce when she wants to be but has a good heart.

Eclipse is by my own admission, the Tiny Tim of the Avoran ships. An experimental prototype built shortly before the end of the Avoran civilisation, the technology she carried failed. Abandoned and left in Corona's care, she is very sick and needs a great deal of care.

That's it... fancy meeting them all? Grab a copy of Proteus Evolution.

Proteus Art - The Arr

Me...? World building and all that?

This is the Arr, the Dendritian flagship featured in Proteus Of Darkness and Light. It is heavily damaged during the battle of Apeyra and is returned to Beletrix for repairs.
By far Dendritian technology is nowhere near as advanced as the Alphians or Apeyrons and this is a warp drive capable ship as opposed to the subspace drive.
It is deliberately designed like this following a strange insect like style to match its creators.

More soon, maybe?
