The Belt didn’t get the memo.In the cold void of the Belt, one man and his AI dogs stand against an empire that wants to "harmonize" humanity out of existence.An unknown ship destroys a lone miner's rig and sends a dying warning to Mike Stone, the quiet shepherd of drill-bots.

It's next.Mike never wanted to lead a rebellion.

The Thrang call it chaos. Mike calls it home.In a galaxy that demands submission, one shepherd refuses to kneel.Fall in love with the Dogs of Ore series. Read more
