Adventures of the Starship Satori Series by Kevin McLaughlin, Kevin O. McLaughlin

The crew races against time to learn more about the deadly Naga, an enigmatic race of alien predators who will stop at nothing to find the starship Satori. A risky mission is put together: a return to the dead world where they first encountered the Naga. There the crew will try to wrest the information they so desperately need directly from the satellite defenses the aliens placed to blockade the planet. It should be a simple scouting run... moreThe crew races against time to learn more about the deadly Naga, an enigmatic race of alien predators who will stop at nothing to find the starship Satori. A risky mission is put together: a return to the dead world where they first encountered the Naga. There the crew will try to wrest the information they so desperately need directly from the satellite defenses the aliens placed to blockade the planet. It should be a simple scouting run.

Armed with a new weapon, the crew of the Satori risk the voyage to a new world - the home of the Cyanauts, a race of beings enslaved by the Naga for their ability to telepathically translate languages. They hope to free the slaves, depriving the Naga of a powerful tool in the process. But freedom is not so simple as flipping a switch. Trust is earned, and the crew find themselves embroiled in controversy and danger... moreArmed with a new weapon, the crew of the Satori risk the voyage to a new world - the home of the Cyanauts, a race of beings enslaved by the Naga for their ability to telepathically translate languages.

Trust is earned, and the crew find themselves embroiled in controversy and danger. The Naga are not about to give up their servants without a fight, and would like nothing better than to get their hands on the human starship. The crew of the Satori must decide for themselves the value of liberty - theirs, the Cyanauts, and that of all humanity lie in the balance. less

The alien Naga tried to destroy all life on Earth, but what doesn't kill us makes us stronger. Six months ago we fought a short but devastating war against the invaders. Our ships burned, and whole cities were annihilated, but we defeated them. Now out of the ashes rises a new Space Force, led by the heroes from that final terrible battle. Beth Wynn wants nothing more from life than to retreat back into the design and invention she's always loved most... moreThe alien Naga tried to destroy all life on Earth, but what doesn't kill us makes us stronger. Six months ago we fought a short but devastating war against the invaders. Our ships burned, and whole cities were annihilated, but we defeated them. Now out of the ashes rises a new Space Force, led by the heroes from that final terrible battle. Beth Wynn wants nothing more from life than to retreat back into the design and invention she's always loved most. But Earth needs her mind and leadership now more than ever. Because not all the ashes are cold and dead. Even in the calm after the fires have gone out, danger lurks close to home. A team sent to the abandoned lunar base vanishes without a trace. Security forces guarding one of the captured Naga starships go silent. Enemies close in, and our very survival will rest on a knife's edge. In this game of interstellar survival of the fittest, Earth's heroes will need to put all their courage and brilliance into play to win. less

When the alien Naga attacked Earth, they took everything from Owen McInness. His home was destroyed, his parents killed in front of him. He hated the invaders with every fiber of his being and dedicated his life to making them pay for what they'd done. But that anger was burning him up from the inside. Soon his Academy career was in tatters. Owen is offered one final chance to make a difference – if he can conquer the hate boiling inside him... moreWhen the alien Naga attacked Earth, they took everything from Owen McInness.
