Harmony Disrupted - Paperback

When Earth and Mars capitulate to the Thrang Harmony, the asteroid belt becomes the last place humans can still resist.

Admiral Trelnor answers that resistance with retribution-a cold, surgical campaign meant to erase Earth's remaining strength and purify the Belt in one decisive sweep.

Out beyond the inner worlds, Mike Stone and his patched-together Belter allies do what the Thrang can't model: improvise. They turn mining ships into warships, debris into camouflage, and a scattered web of bots and AI dogs into a living sensor net that can hunt the hunters. The goal isn't glory. It's survival-buy time, blind the enemy, and hit hard where the aliens least expect it.

But the war is widening.

On occupied Earth, Harmony Clubs rise-human collaborators chanting for belonging and "Selection," unaware they're being used, sorted, and discarded.

On the edge of Jupiter's shadow, a "missing" prototype becomes a legend: HEAU-7, a tiny autonomous mining beast that doesn't hate, doesn't bargain, and doesn't stop.

And in the Belt, as Ceres burns and the Thrang recon net tightens, the resistance bets everything on one brutal truth: if you can't match their power, you cheat.

Dogs of Ore: Book 2 is a grounded, tactical military sci-fi thriller about asymmetric war, human-AI partnership, and the high cost of refusing to kneel-where every victory is earned in mass, timing, and consequence.

In this book:

• A punitive alien campaign that turns "occupation" into "example."
• Counter-recon and deception warfare across millions of kilometers of rock and space.
• A cavalry charge in vacuum: the Warhorses-and a raid that leaves Mars in ash.
• The quiet, terrifying rise of collaborators on Earth-and what "Selection" really means.

If you like hard-edged space combat, Clancy-style operational planning, and characters who solve impossible problems with grit, math, and loyalty, welcome back to the Belt.
