As murderous anti-life forces emerge from savagespace threatening the galaxy...
The motley crew of the starship Moon Raven, refugee humans, dwarfs, a kitsune, and a half-elf, might be the only hope against an unyielding foe.
For millennia, savagespace and its horrors were relegated to legend and myth.

Savagespace I, Alliances and Consequences
The universe has rolled initiative.
Commander Darius Noble has escaped the overthrow of the Alliance. He carries crucial intel about the drow and Federation's plans for folding space/time to make war anywhere instantaneously across the galaxy. Lacking resources and pursued by bounty hunters, Darius and his companions find themselves adrift in a hostile galaxy.
Their paths cross with diverse nonhumans, leading to the formation of an unlikely crew aboard a salvaged starship. As they navigate their struggles and limited options, they realize a horrifying truth: the Alliance's fall is just the beginning. Can Darius and his crew outmaneuver their enemies and become the unexpected saviors of the galaxy, or will war tear everything asunder?
Savagespace II, Revelations and Reconciliations
The universe has rolled for attack.
In the aftermath of Alliances and Consequences, Captain Darius Noble and the growing crew of the Moon Raven find themselves in the middle of an increasingly precarious interstellar conflict.
When a signal from the Grand Master of the Universal Energies Ontology draws them into a quest on a dead world, the ensuing adventure will either lead them to a way to stop the incursions from savagespace, or bring them to their doom. Can they overcome the challenges and save everyone before the mindflayers annihilate everything?
Savagespace III, Challengers and Survivors
Will the universe make its saving throw?
Captain Darius Noble and the crew of the Moon Raven are at the center of the efforts to stop the destruction being wrought by the creatures from savagespace. As they coordinate the assembly of the Great Hunt, ancient foes ally to find and meet the mindflayers, who grow stronger and harder to stop with each battle.
Can Darius and his motley crew of misfits convince races that have never banded together to fight side by side and save the galaxy? Read the epic conclusion of the Savagespace Trilogy to find out.
Beyond the cradles
"Savagespace is a dimension of darkness that spawns a form of anti-life. In Savagespace, life is what anti-life feeds on."
The discovery of unrealspace led the races of the galaxy to leave the cradles of the worlds of their births behind. Via this parallel dimension to realspace, faster-than-light travel opened countless planets, moons, and solar systems, and connected dozens of races over more than six thousand years.
Over the millennia, waves of new races found their way to the galaxy at large, sometimes peacefully, sometimes with conflict. Agreements were struck to equalize measures of time, currency, and even common language between races, governments, and ideological institutions spanning multiple races.
One dimension was nothing but a rumor, a whispered name found only in the most obscure, ancient texts: Savagespace. A place of terror, fear, and worst of all, death dealt by anti-life forces. For millennia, the rumor was discounted, disregarded, and relegated to legend and myth.
Folding space/time
Scientists among the elves, humans, drow, orcs, goblins, halflings, dwarves, and countless other races have sought to unlock this secret. Whoever possessed the technology could cross thousands of light years nearly instantaneously, rather than over days, weeks, and longer traveling in unrealspace.
Despite millennia of investigation, research, and experimentation, all have failed. Some argued that the ability would come with a cost, though none could voice what that cost would be. Both savagespace and folding space/time had been impossible dreams, never to be realized. Until now...
Savagespace
The human race left their solar system more than three thousand years ago. With that first portal to the faster-than-light dimension of unrealspace, they met other races, all of which were oddly familiar. Elves, dwarves, drow, goblins, and others were already traversing extrasolar space.
Unquenchable curiosity would lead some of the brightest minds ever produced by the human race to crack the code and unlock the secret to instantaneous travel across unimaginable distances. Yet humanity lacked a key resource. Another race, the drow, had it. Bringing their minds and resources together, they would change the course of the known galaxy forever, but not in the way they intended. On the verge of this incredible discovery, our story begins.
