Solar Warden is a new sci-fi book series by Ian Douglas, currently consisting of novels Alien Secrets and Alien Hostiles. The series aims to be a Conspiracy Kitchen Sink involving UFOs, time-traveling aliens, alien tech reverse-engineered by both the US and the Nazis, etc.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Lieutenant Commander Mark Hunter is a Navy SEAL (specifically a member of what used to be known as SEAL Team Six), sent to covertly observe a North Korean nuclear test site with his team. Then he and his men suddenly witness a gleaming flying saucer appear out of nowhere. They see humanoid figures (several small ones with big heads and one that appeared to be human) in a hatch before the UFO does something that causes the entire mountain to collapse. Hunter makes sure to record everything on video. Upon being picked up by the submarine USS Illinois, Hunter is debriefed by a man from the CIA, who orders him and his men to keep quiet about everything they saw. After returning stateside, he is approached by Rear Admiral Kelsey, who offers him a new assignment. Hunter accepts and is taken to an underground complex underneath Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, where he and the other five members of his team who accepted are told about the existence of several alien groups, namely the so-called "Nordics", "Greys", and "Saurians". The Nordics are not actually extraterrestrial, being time-traveling humans from about 11,000 years in the future. The Greys look like your typical alien but are also revealed to be descended from humans, but a million years from now. Not much is known about the Saurians. They appear to be similar in appearance to the Greys but with decidedly reptilian features. Hunter also learns that the US (with Nordic help) has secretly built a space fleet to defend Earth from any external aggression. They are soon met by special forces members from other branches of the US military and intelligence and are told they are being put into a unit under Hunter's command. Unfortunately, they don't get a chance to try out they new gear, as they are immediately shipped off to Darkside Base, located on the far side of the Moon, with the journey taking minutes instead of days. They are assigned to the USSS Roscoe H. Hillenkoeter, one of the eight massive carriers that form the core of the Solar Warden space fleet, and are to take part in the vessel's first interstellar journey to investigate Zeta Reticuli and Aldebaran.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })

comment
Alien Abduction: The Greys and the Saurians do it. The Greys actually strong-armed President Eisenhower to sign a treaty allowing them to abduct and perform genetic testing on a small number of Americans in exchange for some of their tech. He initially refused but they said that they'd go to the Soviets instead. Unwilling to let the Soviets have alien tech, he signed the treaty. But it later turned out that not only do they abduct significantly more than stated in the treaty, but they don't always return the abductees. The Saurians don't bother with any treaties (they don't even understand the concept) and just abduct whomever they like.

Artificial Gravity: A key technology reverse-engineered from crashed UFOs. It not only allows reducing a ship's effective mass, but has a number of other uses, including Reactionless Drive, Deflector Shields, Inertial Dampening, and Faster-Than-Light Travel.
