Jeffrey A. Carver Books Overview

Seas of Ernathe

Millennia after the skills of starship rigging have been lost, can Seth Perland find the key to rediscovery on the world of the mysterious sea people, the Nale’nid? Seas of Ernathe was Jeffrey A. Carver’s first novel, and the first full length tale of what was to become his popular Star Rigger Universe. Set farthest into the future of all the Star Rigger stories, Seas of Ernathe sets the stage for a new cycle of history. A touching story of love and personal discovery, it leads the way to the rediscovery of the mode of star travel that once knit galactic civilization together.

Star Rigger’s Way

In order to survive the turbulent currents of the Flux, Gev Carlyle, sailing on the mental sea in his starship, must meld his mind and memory with a suspicious castaway alien star rigger the sole surviving member of his crew.

Dragons in the Stars

Jael LeBrae finally gets the chance to navigate a ship through hyperspace, but when the co pilot tries to enslave her, she kills him in self defense and is left alone to battle an evil population of dragons.

Dragon Rigger

When star rigger pilot Jael LeBrae returns to the dragons’ territory, she is unaware that her presence fulfills a prophecy, an epic battle is brewing, and the dragons and her own universe are threatened by a powerful evil force. AB.

Eternity’s End

In the century since the devastating War of a Thousand Suns, humanity has stagnated, staying in the cocoon of the Centrist Worlds while the rapacious pirates of Golen Space prey on ships that venture too far into the interstellar Flux. And starship Impris, lost in the war years, has become the stuff of legend used by the pirates as bait, even as the Centrist authorities deny her existence. Renwald Legroeder, escaped prisoner and star rigger pilot, has seen what the government doesn’t want anyone to see. Framed for treason, he flees to save himself, and vows to clear his name. He returns to the realm of the pirates to find the truth behind Impris…
to unmask the conspiracy that cost him his freedom…
to tear off the blinders that have kept humanity from fulfilling its destiny among the stars. Between Legroeder and redemption lie the pirates’ vengeance, if he is caught and the perils of the Deep Flux, where no man has dared to fly. But with the help of a beautiful pirate renegade named Tracy Ace/Alfa, he risks everything to uncover the secrets that can clear his name and change the future of humanity forever.

From a Changeling Star

Across the galaxy, tensions are rising between the authoritarian Tandesko Triune and the free marketeers of the Auricle Alliance. Nevertheless, scientists of both sides have come together in Project Starmuse, to observe the giant star Betelgeuse as it goes supernova. At the space station imbedded inside the roiling star, the team anxiously awaits the return of the one man essential to the success of the project. On Kantano’s World, astronomer Willard Ruskin must discover why someone has infected him with nano agents artificially intelligent, microscopic computers, which alter his appearance, his memory, his very DNA. Drawn into a conflict from which not even death will free him, Ruskin must find a way to reach Betelgeuse before his enemies sabotage Starmuse…
and humankind’s future among the stars. A harrowing journey from inside the human cell to the mind of a dying star.

Down the Stream of Stars

A great interstellar migration has begun, down the gateway known as the starstream. Remnant of the Betelgeuse supernova, the starstream is a grand, ethereal highway deep into the Milky Way. It is also a living entity: born of the merged souls of the once living star and the other beings who died in its creation. Who could have predicted the wonders of the starstream, or the perils it unleashed? Among the perils is a terrifying race known as the Throgs shadowy beings that live in the n space of the starstream. Entire worlds have died, destroyed by the Throgs. But life goes on, and colonists continue to settle new worlds. Colony bound aboard the starship Charity are one Claudi Melnik, a child of uncommon talents and an AI named Jeaves, who has his own interest in an encounter with Throgs. When the unthinkable occurs, Claudi must face alone the challenge from beyond space and time. And no one, not even Jeaves, could have predicted the final confrontation, or imagined where unexpected friendship would be found. Down the Stream of Stars, triumphant sequel to the bestselling FROM A CHANGELING STAR, is a daring journey across the gulf between human and alien, to the heart of consciousness itself.

Battlestar Galactica

n 1978, Battlestar Galactica appeared: an epic sci fi television series starring Lorne Greene, of Bonanza fame, and a cast of young actors. Though inspired by the success of Star Trek and Star Wars, the show lasted just one season. But it was fondly remembered by many who watched it, and now has been resurrected in spectacular fashion by Ronald Moore, a long time writer and director of Star Trek episodes. With sharply written, literate scripts and a cast of fine actors, the reborn Battlestar Galactica has been a huge success, first as a miniseries, and now as a continuing series on the SCI FI channel. This audiobook is based on the exciting, suspenseful miniseries. Humanity created the robotic cylons to help itself, but the cylons turned on their makers and fought a terrible war until the armistice. Forty years later, the cylons are different. Now they look and act human…
and some of them even think they are human. When the cylons attack the twelve human worlds, only a single ship survives the onslaught to protect refugees from those worlds: the oldest ship in the fleet, Battlestar Galactica. Led by Commander Adama and President Laura Roslin, and pilots like the fiercely independent Starbuck and Lee Adama, they fight for the survival of humanity in a riveting interstellar adventure.

Sagittarius Is Bleeding (By:Peter David)

An untold story of Battlestar Galactica by bestselling author Peter David. President Laura Roslin bears a heavy burden. Since becoming the president of the twelve human colonies when the Cylons brutally attacked and destroyed all but a small remnant of humanity’s billions, she has been the voice of civil authority, counterbalancing the military leadership of Commander Adama of the Battlestar Galactica. President Roslin has been a source of inspiration to the tens of thousands who survive on Galactica and the other colonial ships. They look to her for honesty, integrity, and courage. For fairness and an evenhanded rule. And most importantly, for the prophecy she has shared with them. Earth, the fabled home of the lost colony, can be found. She has seen this in a vision which has the power of truth.

Recently, though, her dreams have been darker, of a galaxy overrun by Cylons…
. Is she having visions of an inevitable future? Or are these terrible dreams caused by powerful medication she’s been taking ?

More dangerously, the Midguardians, radicals who believe that the end of humanity is coming soon, have learned of Roslin’s dreams and taken them as a sign. Now, the Midguardians prepare to act.

President Roslin faces the most important decision of her life, Should she tell Commander Adama about the Midguardians, and risk being imprisoned again as a traitor, or dare she keep her secret, and possibly endanger the future of the entire fleet…


Edward James Olmos, Mary McDonnell, and a cast of talented newcomers star in Battlestar Galactica. The 1978 series, re imagined by Ronald D. Moore as a suspenseful series of taut human drama, has taken viewers by storm with compelling stories of humanity on the brink. The talented cast and intense stories have fired the imagination of the largest audience for any Sci Fi Channel series in its history. Galactica is back, better than ever.

The Cylons’ Secret (By:Craig Shaw Gardner)

Sometimes no news is bad news. It’s been twenty years since the end of the Cylon war. The twelve human colony worlds are rebuilding, and the Cylons…
the Cylons have been just too quiet. They are nowhere to be found. The robotic race that tried to obliterate their creators has gone to parts unknown in deep space. The aftermath of the war has created a new, illegal profession: scavenger. Tom Zarek is one, scouring the outer settlements for valuable Cylon technologies and artifacts and usually returning empty handed. But now, he and the crew of the Cruiser Lightning have found the Omega Station, a scientific station shrouded in secrecy beyond the edge of charted space. This is it, the big score, except something is wrong the base is still occupied, not by humans alone; by Cylons too!The Battlestar Galactica, one of the oldest warships in the fleet, receives the Lightning’s distress call, a cryptic one word message: ‘Cylons.’ William Adama, newly promoted to second in command, is worried. Most of his crew are green, new recruits, not prepared for anything but the most routine missions. And, as Adama soon discovers, this mission is anything but routine. Omega is indeed full of Cylons, but also something much more disturbing…

Unity (By:Steven Harper)

A prophecy is fulfilled when Peter Attis is rescued from the Cylons in order to save humanity with ‘the plague of the tongue.’ Or so it seems…

While harvesting algae for conversion into food, the beleaguered human/refugee fleet is discovered by a small group of Cylon raiders. A brief battle ends with the destruction of a Cylon heavy raider. A colonial issue escape pod found floating among the debris reveals two survivors inside: Singer Peter Attis…
and his captor, a Cylon Number Eight.

Soon after Peter’s liberation, people begin babbling incoherently and dropping into comas. Unwittingly, Peter has been spreading a highly contagious, nerve-deteriorating Cylon biological weapon — and he just performed for half the fleet. As Dr. Gaius Baltar begins work on a cure, word starts to spread that a fanatical sect believes that Peter is the religious leader who will save humanity and that this virus is their path to salvation. They are willing to do anything to keep Baltar’s vaccine from being distributed.

While the fleet is in chaos, a larger Cylon force appears. A weakened humankind, now threatened on two fronts, may be unable to defend itself…

Neptune Crossing

When John Bandicut sets out across the surface of Triton, he’s hardly ready for the storm of chaos that’s about to blow through his life. The alien quarx that soon inhabits his mind is humanity’s first contact with an alien life. The quarx, part of an ancient galactic civilization that manipulates chaos theory to predict catastrophic events, seeks to prevent a cometary collision that could destroy the Earth. But it must have help. If Bandicut chooses to trust the quarx, he must break all the rules indeed, sacrifice his life as he knows it to prevent humanity’s greatest cataclysm. Leaving friends and lover behind, hurtling across the solar system in a stolen spaceship, Bandicut can only pray that his actions will save the Earth even if he doesn’t live to see it again. From the Nebula nominated author of Eternity’s End.

Strange Attractors

Stranded on the artificial structure known as Shipworld, John Bandicut searches for the keys to its mysteries and stumbles into a confrontation with an entity known as the boojum, an evil corruption that threatens both Shipworld and the universe. K.

The Infinite Sea

Since John Bandicut saved Earth from collision with a comet in Neptune Crossing and saved Shipworld from the boojum of Strange Attractors, his life has become one confrontation with chaos after another. No sooner has he survived a harrowing escape from Shipworld than he and his eclectic band of aliens find themselves struggling to survive beneath the waves of a distant ocean world. They quickly discover they are not alone. A race of deep sea humanoid amphibians, the Neri, are in trouble of their own. Long under attack by beings from the surface, they now face an even greater peril from the seafloor depths, a powerful force known as the Maw of the Abyss. If Bandicut cannot solve the riddle of the Maw, the Neri’s beleaguered world will die. And Bandicut and his friends will die with it.

Sunborn

With a plot inspired by chaos theory, fully realized characters, and plenty of twists and turns, this exciting hard SF adventure will keep readers on the edge of their seats. John Bandicut and several aliens and artificial intelligences have been thrown together by a force greater than themselves to prevent cataclysmic disasters on an interstellar scale. Now, before they can take a break after a world saving mission, they are pulled into a waystation that is being threatened by highly destructive gravity waves. The waves are part of a much larger problem. Something is causing stars to become unstable and go prematurely nova they’re being murdered. When the waystation is destroyed by the gravity waves, Bandicut and his crew barely escape on a jury rigged ship. Their destination is a star nursery in the Orion Nebula, where sentient stars are being driven to destruction by an artificial intelligence bent on remaking the cosmos in its own image.
