Xenophon: A Colony In Crisis

By Carlos L. Ogaldez Jr.

Humanity thought the stars were finally within reach.

The Moon had been transformed. Mars colonized. Travel between Earth and distant worlds became routine. The universe was no longer a mystery-it was a prize. And like a gold rush among the stars, corporations, governments, and the wealthy raced to claim it.

Then first contact changed everything.

An exploration team sent to survey the Alpha Centauri system encountered the Nihan-a ruthless, reptilian species bred for conquest. Towering warriors driven by endless war, the Nihan sought to devour every system they encountered. What followed was twenty years of brutal, unrelenting conflict that pushed humanity to the brink of extinction.

Now the war is over-or so it seems.

As Earth struggles to rebuild, a modest but rising military officer is thrust into the center of power alongside his wife, a strong-willed cabinet leader with enemies on all sides. Peace is fragile, and something is terribly wrong. Terrorist attacks strike without warning. A hidden enemy operates in plain sight. And beyond the stars, another invasion looms closer than anyone dares to admit.

Because the greatest threat to humanity may not be the enemy it defeated-but the one it failed to see.

XENOPHON is a high-stakes science fiction thriller blending explosive action, political intrigue, and unforgettable characters in a vast universe teetering on the edge of war.
