A.K. DuBoff answered Michael Rasmussen's question: Hi Amy I just purchased the Fractured Empire boxset (7 books) on kindle and is reading book 1. Will this ever get a hardcover release? It's my first "kindle book" as I am used to reading hardcovers and it feels a little strange reading a book from my computer :) Hello! The full set is too long to contain in one volume, but there are hardcover editions for the individual books (Volumes 1-3 are combined onto Book 1: Shadows of Empire). You can find them all here: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08F47GMQ5?... Let me See Full Answer

Quotes by A.K. DuBoff (?)

“True space opera is epic in scale and personal with characters. It is about people taking on something bigger than themselves and their struggles to prevail. Though a setting beyond Earth is central, being on a spaceship or visiting another planet isn’t the only qualifier. There must also be drama and sufficiently large scope to elevate a tale from being simply space-based to being real space opera.”
― A.K. DuBoff

“People were meant to go out and explore and be connected to their environment. Life in cities, where so many interactions were impersonal and there wasn’t even a sky to see, was an extreme departure from humanity’s roots.”
― A.K. DuBoff, Stranded

“All of his training told him that guesswork was a recipe for disaster. One needed to be prepared for contingencies, and not even knowing the basics of a situation meant that Plan A might be doomed from the start.”
― A.K. DuBoff, Stranded
