Dogs of Ore: Falling Sky

Book One in the

Dogs of Ore

series

Book 1: Falling Sky

When aliens conquer Earth, resistance doesn’t start with soldiers or admirals.

It starts with miners, machines, and a pack of AI dogs.

Falling Sky is a military science-fiction novel about first contact, asymmetric war, and humanity’s refusal to behave as expected.

The Series

The Dogs of Ore series chronicles humanity’s fight for survival after a sudden alien invasion shatters Earth’s dominance of the solar system.

As powerful empires move to occupy human space, resistance emerges from unlikely places: asteroid miners, engineers, AI companions, and civilians forced to adapt faster than their enemies believe possible.

Blending military science fiction, first-contact conflict, and human-AI partnership, Dogs of Ore explores how decentralized resistance, improvisation, and loyalty can challenge even the most technologically advanced conquerors.

If you locked Mark Twain and Sir John Hackett in a remote cabin with a limited supply of bourbon and cigars, then made them chronicle the alien invasion in 2135, it would look something like the Dogs of Ore series. Military science fiction with grit, dry humor, and AI dogs who take their jobs very seriously.
