About Me
I'm a combat veteran who served in both the active duty Marine Corps and Virginia Army National Guard. I went overseas seven times and earned numerous military awards including the Navy/ Marine Corps Achievement Medal with a Valor device, Combat Action Ribbon, 2 campaign medals, the Presidential Service Badge, and Army Commendation Medal. I write science fiction stories (loosely) based on my experiences in both services.
I work as an athletic trainer for my local fire department, trying to keep those brave men and women pain free and ready for whatever the city may throw at them. When not at work or writing, I can usually be found hanging out with my wife, Karen, and beagle, Sandy.

Terra Ascending
The Sol System is a powder keg waiting for a spark.
Corporal James Aurelius didn’t sign up for this. Fancy hotels, powerful politicians, and… guard duty. Two years into his enlistment and the young marine has yet to see combat, while all his buddies from boot camp have done at least one tour in the war that raged with the Caliphate back on Terra.
During a routine security mission in a cloud city on Venus, Aurelius is thrust into the center of a high stakes espionage mission gone wrong that threatens to upset the balance of power in the Sol System. In over his head and on the run, will Aurelius rise to the occasion or falter when he’s needed most?
Back on Terra, the United Republic and its allies prepare to knock the Caliphate out of the war for good, but a nasty battlefield surprise throws a wrench into their plans. As the battle grows more desperate and loyalties are tested, Aurelius and teams from across the UR military cross paths at a critical moment that could mean the end of everything… again.
Join the marines, soldiers, and sailors of the UR as they struggle for survival against enemies within and without as the Sol System stands on the precipice of system-wide war in the thrilling debut by United States Marine Corps combat veteran, J.R. Wise.
