Synopsis

Earth lost the war and was conquered without a fight, without even knowing it was at war.
The Batract Hyphae came with contracts and promises, but were only interested in humans as a workforce and as mercenaries to hold their vast empire together.
Five decades have passed. Humanity’s progress has been stunted; Batract Integration Officers monitor everything and everyone.
Bound for Sirius, the 1st Expeditionary Fleet has been ordered to crush another rebellion against the Hyphae.
But beneath its formal orders lies a different purpose: to prepare for Earth’s uprising and to seek allies among the very species it was sent to destroy.
Now, humanity must play to its strengths, using diplomacy where possible and domination where necessary, to end the threat to its freedom once and for all.

What to Expect:
Have you ever read an HFY sci-fi novel and wondered, “How did humanity get this strong?” Wonder no more. Upward Bound is a coming-of-age story for an entire species. Planned as a multi-book series, it tells the story of humanity and its allies freeing themselves from oppression and becoming powers in their own right.

It follows the POV of influential officers as well as scientists simply doing science. Great emphasis is placed on how the technology could realistically work, based on modern scientific understanding.

Think Stargate, but much farther into the future.

If you enjoy grounded technology, alien politics, and humanity clawing its way toward greatness, this might be your next read.
