From reject to starship captain in 1 nanosecond


Kevin’s father thinks he’s a loser, and a brand-new rejection from MIT isn’t going to convince dad otherwise.

He goes for a lakeside walk to sort things out in his mind – and an alien ship crashes right in front of him.

With his last breath, the dying captain imparts Kevin with a chilling revelation. An intergalactic war looms ominously, threatening all sentient life. A war that Kevin, in a twist of fate, will now need to fight.

On the losing side.

In command of the last remaining warship.

The crew of the ship? All dead.

With billions of lives hanging in the balance.

So, no pressure!

The Warship Thalamos Box Set contains all six adrenaline-fueled From Far Beyond novels, and includes the riveting bonus short story: Red Alert, for over 1400 pages of Epic Space Opera. If the sheer joy of diving into movies like Ready Player One and The Last Starfighter left you spellbound, then brace yourself, because you're in for an absolute whirlwind of cosmic escapades with our hero, Kevin, and his faithful Beagle, Boomer, as they navigate across galaxies in high-stakes interstellar combat.

From Far Beyond is a pulse-pounding Space Opera, brimming with relentless action, endearing characters, punctuated with sparkling humor and a double-shot of 80's and 90's action movies pop culture references and nostalgia. This coming-of-age saga, with its unconventional technologies and diverse alien realms, is sure to captivate and ignite your imagination like a supernova. Take a daring leap and become a part of the adventure, today.

5.0 out of 5 stars Really Fun Series
Reviewed in the United States on March 21, 2024
Verified Purchase
This was a really fun series. I really enjoyed reading this series. The action is pretty much non stop. The characters are very well written as well as well developed. There are many humorous moments that had me laughing out loud, lucky for me no one was around. Most of this revolves around the interactions between the talking earth dog and the space cat known as a sphynx. Most of the space ships names are from Egyptian gods. There are many references to SiFi shows and movies. I noted references to Eragon, Terminator, Star Trek, Star Wars, Babylon 5, Wizard of Oz, Lord of the Rings, and Captain America. If you are one who prefers hard science, then this is not your series. Quite a bit of science fiction and fantasy mixed. There is even technology based magic. If you are a fan of good old science fiction and fantasy then I highly recommend this series. There is a great mix of action, humor and a little bit of interspecies romance.

4.0 out of 5 stars Should be young adult
Reviewed in the United States on January 28, 2024

The proof reading is better than average but still lacking a bit, especially in the last two books. Good fun read for young adults and teens. Will not strain your brain but could use a bit more sci and a bit less fi.

This series is both entertaining and a bit silly. Throughout the books, the impossible becomes ordinary, often in unexpected and humorous ways. This is a fun read.

I read a lot of Science Fiction, and I really liked this series. The story moves along really well, and the characters were all very relatable. The plot and story arcs were quite enjoyable. The story was definitely a little different than a lot of the other stuff I read, which is part of what made it fun. I highly recommend this series.

This could have been a good story if all of the foolish handed was left out. Also, review of each past book was a waste of time. Smiling the reviews reduced the many book series to a short story.

Young adult story. Kevin in trying to help a wounded alien who lands on Earth by his home. He winds up Helping to save their world. Multiple double crosses later he makes it back to earth where all seems good for a while. Then the evil forces come to earth to capture him. Many twists to the story.

Due to his gaming skills, he has out of the ordinary fighting skills. He side kick is a dog that talks and provides plenty of comedy.
Cute story.

4.0 out of 5 stars Better than expected
Reviewed in the United States on January 9, 2024
Verified Purchase
I have been reading Science Fiction for the better of 55 years. I have read all the very best in the field Like Asimov, Greg Bear and Campbell. I picked this set up out of curiosity with the author. I had not read anything from Kallias and wanted to see what his writing was like.
I'll admit that after the first two or three chapters I almost put the set down. It was a bit juvenile and the science was a not what I was used to seeing. I have read several thousand books in my life and I have only given up reading a book I started one time in the span. I decided to go ahead and keep reading. All and all I was glad that I did. Yes, the science is a bit weak and the story is formulaic but I will say that the story and the characters are a lot of fun. I thoroughly enjoyed the ride and I think if you are willing to go with it I think you will too. Give it a try if only for the enjoyment and maybe a few chuckles along the way.

I have read several space operas, and Christian Kallias holds the top position as far as I'm concerned. If you haven't read the Universe in Flames series, you've been missing a real treat.

A good story line although a bit congested from time to time in the plots. The characters fitted in well and the loss of some, including Leg’olas, brought a tear to my eye.
I am an older reader who has only got into reading the space stories and Christian Kallias tells them well. Keep up the great work.

A well written series.
Enough natural comedy to make it lighthearted, but enough action to make it a serious sci-fi read.
Read it everyday until finished.
