THE LAST DEPLOYMENT A COLLECTION OF SPACE STORIES
A compilation of five stories I had planned to make into full novels but worked well as short stories. Mix of humor, military science fiction, space opera, and fantasy.

Dreamer, A cadet needs to grow up fast when she has to fight for her life when her ship is boarded.

Soar, Refugees trying to escape religious persecution end up sharing an escape pod with their sectarian oppressors.

Last Deployment, Transport carrying marines to defend a colony is shot down with survivors still in their stasis chambers. When eventually revived there is a new world waiting for them.
Immortal, A man accepts a contract from aliens for immortality.

Heroes, The military unable to raise an army, clones a highly decorated hero with unintended consequences.
