The Grand Human Empire is a five-book space opera series by John Wilker that started with Any Job Will Do in 2021. The series explores humanity’s place in a larger galactic civilization, with political tensions, military conflicts, and the question of what happens when humans become a major player on the interstellar stage.
The books have a broader scope than Wilker’s Space Rogues series, dealing with empires and civilizations rather than a single crew’s adventures. Three of the first four books came out in 2021, followed by Seeds of Change (2023) and Rising Resistance (2024), suggesting the series is building toward a larger conflict.
