The Four Horsemen Tales are set within the Four Horsemen Universe, a military science fiction shared world created by Mark Wandrey and Chris Kennedy. The setting imagines a galaxy where humanity has been contacted by alien races and drawn into a vast interstellar mercenary economy. Human mercenary companies compete for contracts alongside alien species, and survival depends on firepower, tactics, and negotiation skills.

Jody Lynn Nye contributed several stories and novels to the universe, beginning with Legend in 2018. Her entries include standalone tales like The Colchis Job and contributions to shared anthologies such as Tales from the Lyon’s Den and When Eagles Dare. The stories range from full novels to shorter works collected in themed anthologies alongside other authors writing in the same setting.

The Four Horsemen Universe has grown into one of the larger shared-world military sci-fi projects in recent years, with dozens of authors adding to the canon.
