Major Ariane Kedros, in Peacekeeper, is coming in early December 2008.

Welcome. I'm a new author, and if you're interested in how I came to be published, read A Tale of Two Authors on Jennifer Jackson's blog, and see why I'm lucky to have such a stubborn agent.

Peacekeeper is the first of the Major Ariane Kedros Novels, a new science fiction series. It will be published by Roc (an imprint of Penguin Group) in December 2008.

"An excellent debut novel. Peacekeeper is full of exciting, complex characters in a truly byzantine universe where everything hangs in the balance. I can't wait for Reeve's next book."

Mike Shepherd, Author of the Kris Longknife Series (Ace)
