1. Jaunts of the Mantis
LCDR Ximon Sabo retires from the Kremniy Republic Scout Force and gets a retired scout ship — The Mantis. Then he must find work to keep her flying. Mantis and its small crew have a series of adventures across a few dozen solar systems, including alien first contact, daring rescues, space combat, and even a murder mystery. Along the way, Ximon and his crew – a female engineer with a drinking problem, a sensor operator who’s also a priest, Ximon’s sexy companion robot, and the intelligent ship’s computer have to work together to face innumerable challenges.
2. Expeditions of the Mantis
Ximon and his unique crew continue their adventures on the retired Republic scout ship — The Mantis. War has flared up and Ximon and Mantis have been called back to service to fill the gaps left by the redeployment of Navy and Scout forces to the front. Mantis is called to duty battling pirates from lonely outposts, doing deadly resupply runs to allies in a war zone, and then expanding Republic influence into unclaimed regions of the frontier. In this they deal with teams of diplomats, terrorists, scatter-brained scientists, hyper-efficient robots, and ships and stations facing disaster. To top it off, Ximon has to deal with his own sexy companion robot and the intelligent ship’s computer, both of whom have their own ideas of how they should “evolve.”
