Delphi in Space · #1
Starship Sakira
What would you do if you found a spaceship? Would you call the government, would you pretend you never saw it, or would you keep it a secret? What would you do with it? Use it to gallivant around the galaxy, conquer Earth, get filthy rich, or try to improve life on Earth? Read along and find out how Marc tries to convert Earth into a spacefaring world capable of defending itself and of being united as it meets the other civilizations in the galaxy.
Marc and his crew need to accomplish all this without tipping off the U.S. Government and before the Paraxeans come looking for their spaceship. But they have help, the ship’s AI is on their side and she’s smart. Starship Sakira is the first book in the exciting new adventure series Delphi in Space.
The series
In Delphi in Space, humanity’s journey into the cosmos isn’t just about exploring new worlds—it’s about forging a new future where power, politics, and ambition collide among the stars.

Read full series description
The series opens with the discovery of the Starship Sakira, an ancient alien vessel that propels a family into the heart of galactic exploration. From this pivotal moment, the McCormack family and their allies are thrust into a rapidly expanding universe, navigating political intrigue, fierce battles, and the delicate balance between diplomacy and war. Each book delves deeper into the consequences of humanity's expansion, exploring themes of governance, sacrifice, and the cost of progress.
What makes Delphi in Space stand apart is its focus on both the grand scale of space exploration and the personal stories of those caught in its wake. The universe Blanton has created is not only filled with rich, diverse planets and species but is also grounded in the very human struggles of its characters—leaders facing moral dilemmas, soldiers caught between duty and conscience, and diplomats trying to maintain peace in a galaxy on the brink.
At the heart of this series is a subtle examination of what it means to lead, to conquer, and to unite. As alliances are formed and broken, each new chapter reveals more about the delicate web that holds the future of interstellar civilization together. Delphi in Space isn’t just about space battles—it’s about the battles within, as characters are forced to confront their own ambitions and desires for power.
Fans of space opera, political thrillers, and character-driven narratives will find much to love in this series. With its richly built universe, multifaceted characters, and gripping, high-stakes storytelling, Delphi in Space promises a journey through the stars that will leave readers eagerly turning the pages, desperate to see where the story leads next.
