I’m so excited to share that the wait for the next First Colony book is almost over.
Dark secrets lurk among the stars. Are they ready for them?
General Connor Gates is leading a task force on the most ambitious exploration initiative to date. The crew aboard the ships are mix of military and civilian, and include his son, Ethan, who has grown into a well respected leader.
While exploring a strange alien world, the team investigating the wreckage of an alien ship is brutally attacked. The survivors barely escape and are now fighting for their lives and their sanity…including Ethan. They’ve been exposed to a dangerous contagion, and it’s going to spread.
Evidence surfaces that there are prisoners on the planet, and their fates are somehow linked to the survivors on the ship.
For Connor Gates, it’s all or nothing: rescue the people left behind and find a way to heal his son, or lose everything. But when a mysterious alien encounter presents an unthinkable choice, Connor’s decision will affect the future of humanity’s place in the galaxy.
They knew they weren’t alone in the galaxy, but no one could’ve predicted an encounter that would change all the rules.
What's next for me?
The audiobook version for Resurgence will be out by August, and Scott Aiello is onboard to narrate. I'm so happy about that. With a series that's ongoing like this I'm grateful that Scott is still available and willing to narrate these books.
I'll be working on First Colony Book 17, which I plan to release in September. I've got my summer project, and I'm thinking that —in my mind at least— I won't be anywhere sunny or pleasant.
I hope you enjoy Resurgence – First Colony Book 16. The book was a lot of fun and challenging to write. It's a process I enjoy a lot, and I'm looking forward to writing the next book.
As always, thank you for supporting my work.

Is there going to be an upgrade deal for buying both the Kindle & Audible together? The last 2 books don’t seem to have it.
Hi Joseph,
That’s a good question, but I don’t have an answer for it. Amazon offers those deals at their own discretion. The audiobook for Resurgence (Book 16) isn’t out yet, so that’s the reason for no bundle offer for that. I’m not sure why they wouldn’t have it for Fallen Earth (Book 15). I usually see those offers as I’m buying the ebook, but it probably depends.
Thanks for reading and listening to my work.

I am very excited for these new books! I just finished book 15 audiobook. Loved hearing the syndicate being referenced 14 books later, a question that lingered for many years for me.. looking forward to August and end of year as well. Keep up the stellar work, your research and dedication show in your writing. Also very happy Scott Aiello has been able to be the voice of these books for so long.. helps make a solid experience through the years.
Thank you, Caleb. I’m glad Scott Aiello is able and willing to keep narrating these books.
First Colony is a fantastic book series Ken, along with all your other book series, well done..
Hi Paul,
Thank you so much, I really appreciate it.
