Publisher's summary

Fourteen outstanding authors. Fourteen extraordinary stories. One best-selling universe.

It's the 22nd Century. The galaxy has opened up to humanity as a hyperactive beehive of stargates and new technologies, and we suddenly find ourselves in a vast playground of different races, environments, and cultures. There's just one catch: we are pretty much at the bottom of the food chain.

Enter the Four Horsemen universe, where only a willingness to fight and die for money separates Humans from the majority of the other races. Enter a galaxy not only of mercenaries, but also of Peacemakers, bounty hunters, and even a strung out junkie in the way of a hired assassin.

Edited by best-selling authors and universe creators Mark Wandrey and Chris Kennedy, A Fistful of Credits includes all-new stories in the Four Horsemen universe by a variety of best-selling authors - and some you may not have heard of...yet. The 14 authors take on various aspects of the universe, giving you additional insight into a galaxy that isn't at war...but definitely isn't at peace. There's only one thing for sure - anything's possible for a fistful of credits!

The full list of authors includes Chris Kennedy, Mark Wandrey, Terry Mixon, Jason Cordova, Jon R. Osborne, Kevin Ikenberry, Jon Del Arroz, Kacey Ezell, Christopher Woods, Christopher G. Nuttall, PP Corcoran, Doug Dandridge, Charity Ayres, and Brad R. Torgersen.

A great story

these books are great, but if you have female characters, please have a female read the book. Having a male read a female character, it's very hard to get into the story.

great stories in an interesting universe

I was blown away by the quality of these stories. The universe seemed cohesive and each story had interesting characters. this was my first time delving into this particular universe, and I'm glad I gave it a shot. It was approachable and cohesive and I kept wishing the stories wouldn't end.

Mostly Fun Stories

A great mix of fun stories of human mercenaries - most of which I enjoyed. The consistent story lines and commonality of the universe is a nice change of pace, considering each story adhered to the Four Horsemen universe. Only a few "meh" stories but for the most part very entertaining.

Meh. Just a ton of pointless stories.

Struggled to finish.

3 interesting stories amid countless other pointless dull stories with a tiny jewel of interesting plot device that should have been used elsewhere.

Each story would be interesting if it was all leading somewhere. But it's hard to keep track of anyone or anything between all things going on in the universe. If any of these un-flushed out characters show up again I'll never remember them.

Even still, thae stories should all be part of a larger plot/narrative. Unfortunately/fortunately they're all above average individually. Meaning they are interesting in their own way. And they have to be in order to keep your attention. That means that an actual book that moves the 4 horsemen story (mystery) along no-longer has access to these stories.

There's no point in having a no-name merc company that I'm not invested in being a part of some amazing .001% opportunity experience. That should be one of the 4 guilds so that I'm invested.

Look, the first 4 books established two things a universe worth exploring and a mystery. I don't want to explore through anyone else's eyes or anything else. I don't care about some tiny merc company dying in a Forrest. I care about how humanity will overcome alien oppression.

At least everything is believable. I just don't care about the characters.
