Jack Foster Space Opera

The scar across the side of Jack’s head is the visible price. The risk to his friends at the academy is the hidden price. His challenge is how to balance the risks. The final stage of his training is a shakedown cruise on an old minesweeper. Midway through their cruise, the minesweeper collides with an ancient alien wreck, ripping the sides off the starship. Jack’s team of bots help seal the combined wreck to prevent air loss. Jack and his girlfriend, Sofia, are the only survivors, and air, food, and supplies are critical. The countdown of days to survive is ticking.

Jack suffered from an attack by the Blue Caps. He sued the RSN and won. He also sued the Royal Family and won. Now he’s acquired his own warship and his first mission is to rescue the princess. What? Yes, Sofia is missing. The Queen has taken an intense dislike to her daughter’s ambitions, and Sofia has disappeared. Jack sets out to rescue her with the assistance of Black Company marines. The task is not as easy as it seems. Join Jack and his bot and AI friends as they search for the missing princess.

Jack has undertaken to return rescued Tirarge, a hitherto unknown species, to their home planet. The first problem? The Tirarge cannot speak—they're telepathic. The second problem? They don't know where their home system is located. The third problem? Another starship is following Fearless, likely seeking revenge. Oh wait, there's another problem. Two other species also inhabit this unknown planet, and they can't speak either. Surprisingly, that's not the end of Jack's problems.
