Raymond L. Weil writes self-published military science fiction with a focus on large-scale space battles, alien threats, and humanity’s fight for survival. Since 2012, he has published over sixty novels across eleven interconnected series, building a sprawling fictional universe that spans centuries of future history.

His early works, including the Moon Wreck trilogy and Star One series, established the foundation of his universe with first contact scenarios and near-future space exploration. The Slaver Wars expanded the scope dramatically, introducing galaxy-wide conflicts and military fleet engagements that became his signature. Later series like Galactic Empire Wars, Star Cross, and the Lost Fleet books continue to build on this timeline.

Weil’s most recent work, the Forges of the Federation and Forgotten Empire series, shows no signs of slowing down. His books are popular with readers who enjoy authors like B.V. Larson and Vaughn Heppner, and he has built a dedicated following in the indie military sci-fi community.
