The Lightship Chronicles

A millennia into the future, human kind is emerging from a prolonged dark age. Led by young heroes like Commander Peter Cochrane of the planet Quantar, a fragile new Union is being formed, taking the first steps to rediscovering their lost human heritage among the stars. These intrepid explorers navigate the galaxy in the Lightships, special vessels designed by the Historian Order of Earth to link together far-flung colonies and create a fabric for a new human civilisation to be rebuilt from the ashes of a collapsed empire.

The Lightship Chronicles consists of three books. The current recommended reading order for the series is provided below.
