The Hunter Imperium #2

Hunter's Terminus

Rate this book
Tech and Magic must come together to survive!

Jon Hunter thinks he's done enough. But since when did he get any say in the matter?

15,000 people, 4 main stations, and 15 large ships, somewhere in the galaxy, unexpectedly looking for a new start.

Jon sees himself as their protector, at least until his people build their own new society, without him in charge.

Thorn has been waiting for Jon Hunter for 82 years.

3100 years ago, Thorn had to save humanity. One week ago, Jon did save humanity. Just different groups.
Both have done the impossible. Both are tired. Both want out.

But in a galaxy newly restored to an older and much more dangerous configuration, just how much rest can either of these men get?

Especially when the three powers in the galaxy don't want a fourth.

Is the galaxy's crossroad, Hunter's Terminus?

(New info added at the bottom, in response to feedback and reviews.)

Timothy Ellis lives on the Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia; where he constantly battles with his cat for possession of his desk chair, Daleks do guard duty, and he keeps his sonic screwdriver next to his lightsaber and wand. Now there is a female Doctor Who, he eagerly awaits the sound of the Tardis materializing in his house.

He has spent his life reading and watching science fiction and fantasy, and has been playing Space Genre computer games since he used to be smuggled in to play the original text Star Trek game on a university mainframe, long before the PC or Apple appeared. Since 2004, he's written game guides for the Egosoft X Universe series, culminating in two versions of the X3 Handbook. He has also designed major mods for the various games, and dozens of mini mods.

He has been a farm worker, Antique Dealer, Computer Programmer, Systems Analyst, Operations Manager of a small retail chain, and Retail Store Owner. He is now a full time author, who still does Spiritual Healer and helper work.

After leaving behind the corporate and business worlds, he was opened to his Spiritual gifts. Now a Feng Shui Master, Feng Shui led him to Buddhism, Karma, the Tao, and back to western spiritualism. Since 2006 he has been writing spiritual articles and helping people via spiritual forums and Facebook Groups. His spiritual books include "Personal Healing Using Basic Meditation", "Life Harmony, Feng Shui in Plain English", '101 Tips for the John of God Brazil Experience', and "The Wisdom of the Ages is available for the price of asking a question" series of 8 books. His own spiritual healing led him to writing novels.

His first novel, 'Hero at Large', spawning the long running 'The Hunter Imperium' universe, brings together his love of the space genre, magic, spirituality, and cats. Now 10 series long, the universe covers 3 galaxies, 4100 years, and as at Dragon Imperative, 62 Novels, 7 shorts, and 2 companion books. There are 7 main entrance points across 10 series: Hero at Large, Admiral of Gaia, Yesterday's Spacemage, Crossover, Midshipman Spacemage, Old Magic, and Dragon Rider. Alternate entrance points if you don't need backstory first, are Adrift and Mage King, although Dragon Rider has 3 books before it about the dragons.

If you wish to be kept up to date with new releases and information in The Hunter Legacy Universe series, subscribe here: http://eepurl.com/bqMgVz, and follow on Amazon, Goodreads, or BookBub.

The fastest way to find out about a new release is my Facebook group/page, which get advance warning about 2-4 days before release, and again when the book is uploaded to Kindle; and my email list which goes out as soon as I have an Amazon page for the new book. Bookbub will let you know about 3-4 days after I remember to tell them.

I normally will release in advance of the specified release date whenever possible, so if you are a Kindle Unlimited reader, you will want another method to be notified of the actual release date, so you can read on day 1.

Oh, man, I love this! Jon Hunter is back with our very own spacemage Thorn. What a great combination. Fair warning, you will NOT appreciate this book without having read the Hunter series and the Spacemage one. I recommend you also read A. I. Destiny series to understand all of the nuances brought together from the aforementioned series into this one. Space battles, A. I.'s that rock, magic, advanced societies starting over, new galaxies to explore and so much more. Highly, highly recommend.

Love this series, no fighting the enemy from a beleaguered position.

I love this series, it’s a fun read. I love the characters, the technology, the fact that the hero is not fighting as an underdog which takes place in a lot of books these days. This hero has the technology skills and the abilities to fight his enemies on equal terms, this is so refreshing in a sci-fi book. Most of the time the protagonist and sci-fi books of fighting with dilapidated ships and equipment not so in this book in the series. So if you like a character comes out swinging on equal terms with their enemies you’ll enjoy this series.

Excellent Reintroduction

Jon, Jane and crew are back in action. Jon wants to protect his people but is tired and wants to be done with the responsibility. Unfortunately for his wishes, he finds even more people to protect. I like the action and , as well as the interaction with Thorn of The Space Mage series. Will Jon avoid being elected King against his wishes or will he end up with even more responsibility? I look forward to the next book.

Hunter's Terminus explains a lot of background material in the Hunter Imperium universe. If you haven't managed to read the books in order, this one might be the place to start getting back on track as to what's happening all around the universe where so many stories take place.

Jon Hunter is back - truly back in the admirals chair!

A 5 star rating is the only way to do this book\series and the continuation of Jon Hunter any justice. I will say that crossover was hard to get into...but I'll try again after this. Mr. Ellis judge makes the legacy and space data come to life.

The long awaited sequel to Hero to the End is absolutely brilliant!

Another great book!

Hunter is back! I love the by play in these books, and the snark. The only thing missing from this one were the flat screen references (SG1, Trek, Battlestar Galactica, etc), but I expect they'll show up soon. Can't wait for the next book.

Hunter Returns

Finally Jon and the team are back! I can't wait to see what happens next. I found it very entertaining and one of the best I've read in a long time. Just like the rest of the legacy, A.I. Destiny,and the Spacemage series

Sleepless Nights

Stick with your day job

This must have been written by a 5 year old and passed off as his own work. Horrible dribble don’t waste your time.

Jon is back and better than ever.

Still as hilarious and fascinating as ever, with the old crew, and a few new, to show the galaxy how it's done.
