Where should I start?
Every series is a way in and each one finishes its own story. Pick the door that sounds like you.
The widest door
The easiest way in. A new era, a new cast, nothing to read first, and a complete trilogy waiting. If this is your first book in the universe, start here.
Wide Sky → Free on KindleThe newest door
The newest series on the shelf: a first-contact trilogy about what a colony can measure, what it can prove, and what it costs to say no more than that. The visitors are never explained. That is the story, not a secret kept from you.
The Surveyors → Free on KindleThe problem-solving door
A first-command thriller that stands on its own: a stranded crew, a captain working the problem with what is aboard, and a course home plotted by hand while the error grows.
Dead Reckoning →The whole shape
Three centuries and one connected universe. See how every series and book fits together.
The Timeline →See every door, filtered by what you like → · Or start from books you already love →

The Atlas
The Seam chart of the home network, a sheet for every region past the Span, and the register of places.
Open →Glossary
The working vocabulary of the universe — the Seam, the Wound, the species, the ships.
Open →Artefacts
Ship logs, blueprints, intel, recovered fragments — primary-source canon, written by the author.
Open →Characters
The full cast across the published novels, grouped by series.
