I've written a science fiction action-adventure series under the pen name

Matt Coleman. I'm using a pen name, so the genre doesn't conflict with my other works. I enjoyed the entire process of creating this universe and these amazing characters that seem to find themselves in sticky situations. 

 

And like real life, sometimes humor helps to ease the heaviness. 

 

They have issues, but they're a team, a band of misfits that with each adventure, work together.

  

Book One through six of the Galactic Heritage Series is now out on Amazon!

Galactic Heritage Series by Matt Coleman

Galactic Heritage Book.jpg

I've written an action-packed science fiction action adventure under the pen name Matt Coleman to keep it distinct from my other writing, both fiction and non-fiction.

​The Galactic Heritage series follows Gunnar McConnell, a seasoned caver who inherits a cryptic treasure map from his late uncle. The map leads him deep into the treacherous cave systems of Tennessee—where he discovers a Holocene-class spacecraft that has been hidden for decades.

 

It's a ship only he can activate, thanks to a unique genetic key.

 

An Aloysian agent is assigned to oversee Gunnar’s clearance to fly, but before he completes training, she vanishes without a trace.

Gunnar defies Aloysian protocol and launches into space in the Enoch, risking more than he can afford to lose while uncovering ancient mysteries, cosmic danger, and a destiny greater than he imagined.

Join Gunnar and his unlikely crew in this high-stakes, galaxy-spanning adventure series.

Books 1–6 of the Galactic Heritage series are available now on Amazon! Click Here!

Book 2 in the Galactic Heritage Book series is Godwalker.

 

Gunnar McConnell and his crew embark on a dangerous mission to outsmart Arvad and find the ancient coins before he does.

 

Gunner is required to fully commit to his destiny. Only then will he will be given the secrets to his lineage, his Keeper skills and learn about the family he never knew.

 

Godwalker has an added bonus short story at the end of Book two's e-book and print versions called- Descending into Arden.

 

This story provides insight into a major Ardenic battle with the Krillies and the intriguing adventures of Gunnar's ancestors.

Captain Gunnar McConnell and his crew have successfully pulled off the greatest heist in the galaxy and are now in possession of all 24 God-walker coins. Making fools of the Aloysian council, their defiance comes with a price—extravagant bounties on their heads. 


They have gone to the Leekins Arc, deep in the Zedar system to regroup and build a new fleet of God-walkers with the ancient codebook now in their possession and to search for the twenty-two remaining Keepers before the Aloysians beat them to it.


They are without funds and resources to begin their new mission; a mission that could end the Ardenic wars.​​

Though Gunnar McConnell inherited a powerful God-walker and an ancient legacy that he didn’t understand, he chose to embrace his duty, but was soon labeled a thief, a traitor, and an outlaw.

His crew are now wanted by the most powerful force in the galaxy, but he is determined to discover the truth about the Keepers’ origins and the powerful species that created the League of Brothers.

Book 6 of the Galactic Heritage series Calamity's End is now available for purchase! 

The time for war has come.

Preparation for a major Kruillian battle is halted when the Network receives a series of distress calls from a small group of rebels on Trestar. A young boy's life is in danger because he has access to vital and coded information that could immobilize the Kruillians and change the course of the Ardenic war.

The Chronicler insists that only Gunnar McConnell's DNA and coin will unlock these secrets, but this powerful man has secrets of his own.

Thank you, Variant Publications and JN Chaney for having faith in my novels and publishing my Galactic Heritage series.
