Peacemakers. The Galactic Union’s most capable enforcers and resolute negotiators, their name alone elicits fear and awe among the Union’s citizenry. 
After the vicious attacks on Victoria Bravo, Commander Tara Mason and the newly formed Force 25 have no time to refit and reconstitute their depleted forces. Deputized by the Peacemaker Guild and charged with a time-sensitive mission—finding James “Snowman” Francis—Tara and her mercenaries deploy to the wintry world of Snowmass to follow a fifty-year-old lead on Snowman’s disappearance. 
Snowmass, though, is far from peaceful. A project of the controversial Dream World Consortium, the planetary government’s promises of pleasant weather and long growing seasons have fallen far short of expectations. Tempers are rising, and unknown attackers are damaging the Dream World Consortium’s equipment and drawing the ire of Mayor Citsym and the Trenta Knights—Zuul mercenaries with more than forty years of less-than-stellar experience providing the planet’s security. 
Force 25 arrives on the planet and clandestinely deploys their attached Peacemakers, Vannix and Jackson Rains, but their hopes for a peaceful investigation of Snowman’s past are doomed from the start. Not only do they run into an assassination staged by the rogue Enforcer Kr’et’Socae and his minions, but the Trenta Knights also believe the newly-arrived mercenaries to be a threat and stage an attack to drive them from the planet. But neither Kr’et’Socae, the local government, nor the Trenta Knights have ever seen anything like Force 25, and when the battle is joined, all of them—including Force 25—will be forever changed.

The Dark Before the Light (The Guild Wars)

Taylor, Tim C.

The lioness prowls where only darkness reigns. 
Months after the fall of Liberia, Lieutenant Sunshine of the Kakata Korps Mercenary Company finds herself adrift in the galaxy. Her last remaining mission, which she has sworn to complete, is to find a member of the Peacemaker Guild and pass along a message from the dead. There’s just one problem—nobody can find the message hidden inside the old, broken-down CASPer in which she escaped the final battle. 
As more time passes, the dead she chooses to honor are tossed into the dustbin of forgotten history. Footnotes and nothing more, the so-called “Lions of Liberia” will only be remembered for their apparent betrayal of Earth, not for their brave sacrifice in an effort to save their people and their homeland. 
Sunshine will not let their deaths be in vain, and she swears to complete her mission. It is her only goal in life…until a cry for help in the dark is heard that changes everything. 
And the galaxy will soon learn why a pride of lions is more dangerous than a solitary one.

Daughter of the Pride (The Guild Wars)

Cordova, Jason

In the aftermath of Peepo’s war against humanity, the Mercenary Guild is still in chaos. On Earth, the moratorium on mercenary contracts is disrupting Jim Cartwright’s efforts to stand up the new Terran Federation. Making matters worse, Jim has received intelligence that someone is squatting on asteroids in our Solar System...and Sansar Enkh is pretty sure they don’t have Earth’s best interests in mind. Fearing the aliens have plans for another invasion—or worse—Jim takes his ship, Bucephalus, and sets off to investigate. While the mercenary guild is in recess, Nigel Shirazi has an opportunity to make some credits, and when he leaves to pursue an illicit contract, Alexis Cromwell decides to follow up on some information she’s received on the mysterious Weapons Conglomerate. Nigel wouldn’t approve of her running off, especially eight months pregnant, but Alexis has never been one to listen to instructions—or orders for that matter. She gathers a squadron of Hussars and heads off on her quest. Events in the galaxy are happening at a frantic pace as the guilds battle each other in the shadows…and sometimes in the open. The Four Horsemen are once again at the center of it all, and as the guilds squabble, the Dusman aren’t sitting on the sidelines. They have their own plans, and humanity is only part of them. The Guild Wars aren’t over; they’ve only just begun.

Gale Force (The Guild Wars)

Their enemies on Earth feared them...now it’s the Galactic Union’s turn!\nUntil the coming of the Galactic Union put them out of business, the Gurkhas were among Earth’s fiercest and most successful mercenaries. Now one man—Ganju Limbu—wants to use their heritage of courage and loyalty to bring prosperity to Nepal, and he is one of two men selected to head Mercenary Guild-sanctioned Ghurka mercenary companies.\nNothing is ever easy, though, and there are forces—both Human and alien—who don’t want to see the Ghurkas succeed, and they will go to great lengths to stop the Ghurka Rifles from ever getting off planet. Other forces hope they do get off planet…so they can take advantage of them.\nWhen Limbu and the Rifles take their first contract, everything seems easy—too easy for what they’re being paid to do—leaving Limbu to wonder what he isn’t being told. Treachery abounds, and the Rifles are on a collision force with an alien army that outnumbers them ten to one, leaving them with only their courage and guile to stave off defeat.\nFor the Ghurkas, though, it’s better to die than be defeated, so they will have to come up with a strategy that turns the tables on the enemy, or the Gurkha Rifles’ first contract will also be their last!\nWinner of the Imaginarium’s Imadjinn Award for Best Science Fiction Novel!

High Mountain Hunters (Four Horsemen Sagas)

Fourteen years ago, Alan Porter returned from a contract with a hefty payday for his company, Silent Night, and a surprise: five orphaned Zuul pups. Although Humans and Zuul have faced off on many battlefields, little was known of the ancient mercenary race, and Alan and his wife, Dana, raised them the best they could. The five pups, Rex, Ripley, Drake, Sonya, and Shadow grew to maturity in Australia, happy with their lives. 
Until a Zuul with the Winged Hussars happens across the strange family and carries news of them home. 
In the aftermath of the Omega War, Silent Night is barely holding on. Most of the company’s mercs and its only starship didn’t return from a contract before the war, and—with the Merc Guild’s prohibition on new contracts—they’re on the edge of collapse when a Zuul cruiser arrives. They, too, are missing personnel, and their leader offers to help find all the missing troops, Human as well as Zuul. Despite Alan’s worry for his family, it’s an offer he can’t refuse. 
For the pups, it’s a voyage of learning what it means to be Zuul. What they find, though, is much more than they bargained for as the Guild War catches them in its growing conflict, and power and credits turn friends into bitter enemies. For it to all end, Night Song must be whole once more. 
And the galaxy will sing.
