Planetside is Michael Mammay’s main series, running five books from 2018 to 2026. The series follows Colonel Carl Butler, a career military officer who keeps getting pulled out of retirement to investigate situations that the military brass would rather keep quiet.
The series kicked off with Planetside and continued through Spaceside, Colonyside, Darkside, and the upcoming Blindside. Each book sends Butler to a new setting where he has to untangle military bureaucracy and cover-ups to get at the truth. Mammay’s own military career informs the series, and it shows in how the command structures and politics play out.
