Kings of the World
2013
Alternate cover edition can be found here.
The galaxy is on the brink of war and only four dysfunctional, hormone-driven teenagers from Earth stand in its way. God help us all. It didn’t take Cooper long to come to the conclusion that space sucks. It seems everyone there despises humans, everything’s too far away and the travel makes you heave. Worse still, Cooper’s stuck there with his best mate, The Ginge – who can’t tell where games end and reality begins - and two other former classmates who want to beat the crap out of him. Oh yeah, and people, well… alien people are trying to kill them. Space does have some good points. The boys can have anything they wish for, all they have to do is ask it … or think it. Plus they are now, somehow, Earth’s leaders - as in, more important than the President of the USA. If Cooper can only stop the other boys from gorging on their every desire, chasing the most human looking alien women and fighting each other, he might convince everyone that humans aren’t the galactic equivalent of white trash. But things are about to get a whole lot worse. War looms and Cooper and his inept sidekicks are caught in the middle. They, the Earth and the Galaxy will never be the same again.

War & Quel
2017
Alternate cover edition can be found [here](https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/36659980-war-quel).
After you’ve saved the galaxy, what comes next? In the second instalment of the award-winning Starship Dorsano Chronicles, Cooper Simpson and his mates return to Earth for a heroes welcome. But reintegration isn’t as simple as they expected. Fame and fortune beyond their wildest dreams start to drive them apart, while global governments want to use their knowledge of the galaxy for purposes best described as sinister. Unfortunately for them, though, there’s bigger issues at hand. With the fallout from the boys’ escapades at the Galactic Council steering the planets towards all-out war, Earth is going to be drawn into the conflict, whether it wants to be or not. But there’s no reason to worry - Cooper has a plan. Get the gang back together, convince the world they’re the right men for the job, train Earth’s best and brightest soldiers for war, and then take on the most dangerous threat the galaxy has ever seen. All the while facing enemies actively hoping – and helping to ensure – they’ll fail. Sounds like a walk in the park.
