Imperium Spacemage #4
Lieutenant Commander Spacemage
There’s no such thing as a nice clean war.
If fighting a war which might never end wasn’t enough, now the Imperium has a new enemy.
But now promoted to be a genuine squadron leader, Bud finds himself leading more than his squadron.
Just how complicated can war get?
Is the enemy of your enemy really your enemy?
Or can their enemy become your friend while you’re still at war with each other?
Even in the middle of a brand new war, Bud finds people who think they know better about what he should be doing.
He’s thousands of light years away, and there are always still obligations to home which must be fulfilled, and the future to be provided for.
And just maybe, can they be made to work for you on the fringes of the core?
The Imperium really has no business in that part of space, let alone fighting another war, but what do you do when you get asked for help, and the original hero is not available?
You send in Lieutenant Commander Spacemage.

(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.

Excellent
A bit slow in the beginning, with pointless ranks, ribbons and medals, but it picks up toward the end. After all the jumping I wonder why they bother shooting ships when they could just jump a bomb in the reactor room of an enemy ship, or jump half of it a little to the side, or open a rift between the sun and the enemy and flash cook them

Great series
This is a great series. Books all have great pace. In my experience any series with this many book in it rarely is able to maintain the quality level that originally drew me in. This one has. While it might be considered three series, all of the books move along a single timeline and storyline.

Super great book
Amazing book. Bud getting kind of dark with no release yet. Interested to see how this plays out. Also, he deals with being a judge. Can't wait for that either. Love how he and Serena have progressed.

I've been following this series since the very beginning, and so far the Author managed to keep the quality up without a hitch. Thank you! On to the next books!

Enjoyable Read And Series
Bud grows in power and skill. It is fun to watch him struggle with increasingly difficult problems and use the resources he has acquired to deal with them. I like the action, humor, and romance. I look forward to the next book.

Boy defiantly a great way for a tale
The nice thing about this series is the buildup of each book is presented in such a way that you believe it is real. Meaning that you don't disapprove of the growth of Bud, as it seems each time it is deserved not out of the blue.

Another winner
This is another winner for the series The stories continue to be well written and exciting. What more can a reader ask for.

Bud for the Win
So, far I am finding Bud’s story quite interesting…better maybe than that of Jon Hunter even…I definitely love his attitude.
