Only The Winner Goes Home (Alien Arena #1) Release Date: July 14, 2026

Coming Soon

Only the winner goes home.

Former Army Ranger Cole Maddox survived the massacre that wiped out most of his company.

No one could explain how.

Years later, Cole is back home with a wife, two kids, a dead-end job, and a life that feels too small for the war still raging inside his head. Then the nightmares begin—strange jungles, towering ruins, shadowy monsters, and hovering drones watching his every move.

At first, everyone tells him it’s PTSD. Then he wakes up bleeding.

When Cole discovers other survivors from his old unit have been vanishing one by one, he realizes something is coming for the men who should have died that night.

And when Cole is taken, he learns the truth.

He has been chosen for an alien blood sport, thrown into a deadly arena filled with human soldiers, alien warriors, and monsters from across the stars. The rules are simple: fight, run, kill, and survive.

The games only end when one contestant is left.

Cole has already survived one impossible slaughter. Now he has to survive another, because somewhere back on Earth, his family is waiting.

And only the winner goes home.

Alien Arena is a military sci-fi action thriller for fans of The Hunger Games, Squid Game, and Predator.
