Book 1: From the right side of Nelson's Star Fighter there was an eruption of cannon fire. A Tourian War vessel had him in its sights. A dozen rounds hit the fuel tanks on Nelson's left wing and smoke started to come from the engine. Book 2: Joe Devlin is midway through his second year at the Space Academy with his father and sister deployed in the war against the Tourians. When someone close to Joe is Missing in Action, can he against all odds, find out what happened? Will he be pushed past his limits as a pilot during his quest for the answers? The Tourians are waiting! Book 3: Joe Devlin has just finished his second year at the Space Academy and is awaiting his dad's homecoming from a highly classified mission. During that operation Joe's father has made a huge discovery--a find so significant that it will change planet Bandor forever! Can Joe handle the knowledge that his dad entrusts with him? Or will it be his downfall, tempted by the power of a legend older than the unity of Bandor. The legend awaits! Book 4: In Book Four of the Space Academy Series, the Intergalactic Space Force seeks revenge after being attacked by a mysterious enemy. Have the Tourians joined forces with a new adversary to exact their own vengeance? Should the ISF strike back? Meanwhile, Joe struggles to fight off his wartime demons while preparing to embark upon a clandestine mission in search of his loved ones. With the power of the Black Medallion in his hands, this undertaking may lead to Joe's own demise-if its influence does not destroy him first. Come join Joe Devlin as he starts his journey, but hurry! Things will get rough fast with paranoia and treachery around every corner.
