Orbs was among Melchiorri’s first published works, kicking off in 2013 with a premise that hooks quickly: alien orbs appear in the sky, and when they activate, life on the surface becomes impossible. A group of scientists in an underground research facility must survive while figuring out what the orbs are and how to fight back.

The six-book series expanded the story from claustrophobic survival to a wider war against the alien invaders. Orbs set the template for much of Melchiorri’s later work, combining scientific plausibility with relentless action.
