Wolfhounds · #4 / 6
War Child
Speaker Phillip T Neill has finally gotten his hands on Chase, and he's definitely got plans. First there will be a little lesson taught. Then there will be a show trial! A big fancy show trial with all of the media there as it's broadcast live across the entirety of the Democratic People's Republic of Solaria!
While the outcome may be predetermined, it doesn't matter to Speaker Neill, he knows that Chase is a fraud and the idea of destroying the little gutter snipe before the entire Republic makes him smile. Then, after he's done and the fake prince has been sentenced to death, Speaker Neill has a show planned for the Morgan pretender that the people will remember for a long time.
Of course Chase has other plans about how this trail is going to proceed, even if the ending is predetermined. One of those is to go down swinging, while exposing Phillip for the stupid and vicious man that he really is.
And maybe, just maybe, there are other people out there who have plans of their own as well...

Read full series description
The world of Wolfhounds is one where power is a fragile illusion, and even the smallest betrayal can topple empires. As Chase rises through the ranks, he must navigate complex allegiances, a battlefield filled with not just physical enemies, but deep-rooted betrayals and shifting loyalties. The universe is rich with history, from the complexities of imperial politics to the harsh realities of war and survival, making it a perfect playground for those who thrive on tactical brilliance and unyielding courage.
At its core, Wolfhounds isn’t just about space battles and military conquests—it’s about the evolution of its characters as they grapple with their morality, their place in the universe, and the burdens of power. Chase, once a man of simple desires, is forced to rethink everything he thought he knew about duty, honor, and what it means to lead. Alongside him, a cast of complex, morally grey characters add depth to the narrative, each with their own personal stakes in the ever-shifting tides of war.
With every installment, the series dives deeper into the world-building, expanding its scope while tightening the tension between characters and factions. The political intrigue is palpable, and the battles aren’t just fought on the front lines but in the minds of those who would control the galaxy. Whether you’re drawn to high-octane action or the intricate plotting that underpins each decision, Wolfhounds promises an unpredictable ride filled with twists, sacrifices, and the constant question of what it means to be truly free in a world that demands your loyalty.
This series is a must-read for fans of military science fiction, space operas, and stories where the true cost of leadership is revealed in both the decisions made and the lives impacted. Wolfhounds explores the fine line between heroism and villainy, making it a compelling journey into the heart of an unforgiving universe.
