About this series
Two powerful alien forces, the sadistic half-human Brotherhood and the savage Hivers, are determined to destroy all human life on Earth. All that stands between them and the achievement of their goal are the old Earth team and their Raider allies.
Enemy actions force the Earth team to deploy on an emergency reconnaissance mission. The search for information quickly expands into a desperate battle against growing horror, terror, and despair. They discover far more than anyone could imagine, including clues as to the true nature of their enemies and the darkest secrets of their homeland.
While their skills and determination sustain them through the dangers springing up on all sides, their resources and their strength, individually as well as those of the team and their allies as a whole, are swiftly draining away.
When all is lost, and only one option remains, they seize it. They launch a desperate near-suicidal assault at the very heart of their vastly superior enemy.
The eagerly awaited sequel to Vector delivers with a vengeance.

1
A crack team of explorers find themselves, in the words of one their number, "stark naked, in the dark, and totally clueless," buried deep beneath an Earth shattered by war, devastated by disease, and ravaged by alien monsters. The remnants of the team make their way to the surface, where they find that the familiar vistas of their home world have been replaced by howling wilderness and creature-stalked ruins. Making use of their full arsenal of low cunning, courage and sheer chutzpah, they survive. They soon discover alien invaders continue their slow, inexorable conquest of the planet, and that remnants of humanity continue to be locked in a stuggle between the half-human "Abataurum" overlords and the scattered descendants of Earth's military. Eventually making contact with the resistance, they find that the old rules, and struggles of love and honor, mendacity and treachery, still apply. Finally, having earned a bloody place among the veterans, they launch a strike against the overloards and their minions; teaching them the true meaning of modern war.

Stephen J. Schrader
You might say that my beginnings were fairly common. Born and raised in central Oklahoma. Grew up hunting and fishing. Earned my spending money as a kid delivering papers, mowing yards, hauling hay, chasing stray cattle out of the brush, mortician's assistant, that sort of thing. I learned to love reading the works of Verne, Wells, Asimov, and Heinlein. By the age of fifteen I'd determined that I wanted to be a writer. I'm a former career U.S. Army Counterintelligence Agent, a disabled combat vet and divorced father of two. When I left the service, I decided to fulfill that childhood dream and started writing science fiction novels. And with each book, each storyline, I've been able to go further and further "out there" challenging people to rethink everything they thought they knew about: first technology and the world, and now God, the Universe, and the very meaning of what it means to be human itself.
