Scattered Stars: Conviction

Huntress, Book 5 in Scattered Stars: Conviction, Available Now

Admiral Kira Demirici is back. She has a new carrier, Huntress, and a new contract with the pacifist system of Samuels.

But the Equilibrium Institute is still out there, pulling strings behind the scenes to bring systems to heel. Kira suspects her old enemies may be behind the conflict with their neighbouring system that prompted Samuels to hire Memorial Force in the first place.

Get Huntress, Scattered Stars: Conviction Book 5, now! Click here for the paperback and here for the audiobook.

Here’s more about the book:

A peaceful world in the crosshairs
A rising threat armed by an old foe
A call to arms she can’t ignore…

Admiral Kira Demirci lost the coin toss with her second-in-command and was supposed to be taking a holiday. That meant waiting in the Redward System while Memorial Force’s new carrier Huntress was commissioned and turned over to the mercenary space fleet.

But when a stranger arrives looking to hire Memorial Force to protect her homeworld, Kira finds money, boredom and altruism combining to bring her into action. The majority of her fleet is elsewhere, but she has two heavy warships, including Huntress. More than enough to protect the pacifist system of Samuels from their neighbors.

Those neighbors were armed by Kira’s old foes in the Brisingr System, and she smells the hand of the Equilibrium Institute behind the scheme. A chance to protect the innocent and frustrate two old foes at once is hard to turn down—and even if things go wrong, the rest of her fleet is on their way.

She’s planned for everything. Hasn’t she?

The Universe of Scattered Stars

The stories of Scattered Stars take place on the fringes of the galaxy. Humanity has spread far out from its place of origin, but limits to faster-than-light travel means that most people will never set foot on the core worlds, and vice versa.

As humanity spreads out from these core worlds, technology levels start to drop. Low-level technology in the Core is sometimes 100 years more advanced than the Rim and beyond. Which means any technology that makes it to the Rim is significantly more technologically advanced – if much fewer in number. Those few pieces of technology threaten to upset the region’s balance – for good or for ill – depending on who holds it. 

There are forces in this universe who seek to control the wilder and more unpredictable worlds by sometimes brutal means. But there are heroes who oppose them, and those who do their best to bring justice and assistance to those with no one else to help them.

This is the universe of Scattered Stars. Follow their stories.


Kira Demirici, the protagonist of Glynn Stewart's Scattered Stars: ConvictionKira Demirci is the protagonist of Scattered Stars: Conviction. A former Nova Fighter Commander from the system of Apollo, Kira and her pilots were forced to flee at the end of the war by elements who saw them as a threat. She smuggled out a handful of starfighters, and she and her people made their way to the Rim. Once there, she and her comrades built Memorial Squadron, and become mercenaries for hire – but ones with discerning taste in clients.

But you can’t fully outrun your past, and the same people who ran them out of their home are now trying to exert their influence over the systems of the Rim. Kira and her people must expand Memorial Squadron not only for their own survival, but for the protection of those the shadowy Equilibrium Institute seeks to control and exploit. 

Evridiki “EB” Bardacki was one of the Nova pilots who fled Apollo to escape bounty hunters along with Kira. Unlike his comrades, EB took a buyout and left Memorial Squadron, preferring to leave the life of a soldier behind. Scattered Stars: Evasion sees EB as the captain of a ragtag crew of the freelance starfreighter, Evasion. Despite wanting to shed his past, EB is still a noble man with a found family to protect who can’t turn a blind eye to those in need.

Fortitude Audiobook Now Available

The audiobook for Fortitude, book #4 in Scattered Stars: Conviction is now available, exclusively on Audible!

Here’s more about the book:

An offer that no one else could match
A mission that no one else could achieve
An enemy only a few know they share…

Commodore Kira Demirci is now the commander of a small but powerful mercenary force—one of the most dangerous in the cluster of stars she now calls home. Her own actions have brought peace to the Syntactic Cluster, though, and a mercenary is in limited demand.

A mutual interest brings her into the circle of the heir to the Royal Crest, a wealthy kingdom dozens of light-years away. Jade Panosyan has a nightmare brewing—and a plan to deal with it.

In the Crest, a powerful political party beholden to Kira’s own enemies is maneuvering to remove Jade’s father before he can free a dozen star systems from the clutches of the Equilibrium Institute. If they are to fail and the Institute’s plans be thwarted once more, Jade Panosyan needs someone to complete an impossible mission.

The payment? The fleet carrier Fortitude, unmatched by any ship within a hundred light-years.

The catch? Kira Demirci has to capture the carrier—from the elite forces of her employer’s nation!
