Overview

They were hired for a war. They were never told whose. The Meridian Compact Expeditionary Force enters Vastaran space under contract: protect civilians, stabilize a frontier world, and support the lawful restoration of order. At least, that is the war they are told they are fighting. Prince Avaron is brilliant, persuasive, and desperate enough to turn dangerous omissions into necessary truths. Commander Hale Brant wants to preserve the law. Captain Maren Solari wants to keep her ships alive. Elias Corren wants the record to survive intact. But as the fighting deepens, the Compact force begins to discover that the rebellion they were sent to suppress may be something far more dangerous: a dynastic war wrapped in legal language, imperial propaganda, and calculated deception. When Avaron's campaign collapses, the expedition is left stranded deep inside hostile territory, branded as unlawful foreign invaders by Emperor Sarcant's regime and hunted by an empire determined to make sure they never return home as witnesses. With their employer dead, their legal protection shattered, and their command structure breaking under pressure, the survivors must hold together long enough to answer a question no contract can settle. Are they still an army? Or are they becoming something else? The war was a lie. The retreat will decide who they become. Ten Thousand Stars From Home: Volume I - The War of Lies is a serious adult military science fiction novel of political deception, fleet survival, fractured command, and the fragile line between discipline and desperation.
