Scott Bartlett writes fast-paced military science fiction set in sprawling space opera universes. His books are packed with fleet battles, alien threats, and characters who have to make tough calls under pressure. He started publishing in 2011 with Royal Flush, a literary novel, but found his stride in science fiction with The Proletarian in 2015 and the Ixan Prophecies trilogy beginning in 2016.
Since then, Bartlett has been remarkably prolific. His Spacers series ran to fourteen books, and his more recent I, Starship series has been expanding rapidly since 2024. Readers who enjoy authors like Joshua Dalzelle and Jay Allan will feel right at home with Bartlett’s work.
