Some orders can’t be followed. Some truths can’t be ignored.

Before he was the most dangerous intelligence operative in the Sol System, John Coleman was just another boot annoying his superiors: Young, eager, and ready to be a hero.

They told him he’d be fighting pirates and bringing order to the lawless void. But instead of glorious battles, Lance Corporal Coleman goes on one routine boarding action after another, shaking down desperate smugglers, enforcing corrupt laws, and watching good people get crushed under the weight of bureaucratic greed.

Then a mission goes sideways and his team stumbles onto something they were never meant to see. Orders are clear: stand down, look away, forget. Trapped between his conscience and the ruthless war machine that forged him, Coleman must decide: Obey and live with the guilt, or fight and face the executioner's trigger. Either way, someone’s dying today.

Boarding Action is a relentless military sci-fi thriller packed with gut-punch action, moral ambiguity, and a body count that won’t stop rising. This is a brutal, unflinching tale where loyalty is a weapon, and morality is just another casualty of war. Perfect for fans of The Expanse, Starship Troopers, and Galaxy’s Edge.
