''The Matador Series'' is a sequence of [[Science Fiction|science fiction]] novels by Steve Perry, generally following the life of former soldier Emile Khadaji, as he initiates a revolution against the corrupt Galactic Confederation ('The Confed').
 
The books have been published out of chronological order, and over a number of years, but in chronological order they are:
Line 37:
* [[Covers Always Lie]]: The blurb on the back cover of ''The Albino Knife'' has nothing whatsoever to do with the book. It describes the titular character as "the secret weapon of the Matadors", even though she's not a Matador, and not particularly a weapon (though she's a competent fighter), secret or not.
* [[Son of a Whore|Daughter of a Whore]]: Dirisha. Realizing that she didn't want to follow in her mother's footsteps is what inspired her to learn martial arts, and take up bodyguarding as a way to get off the planet.
* [[Earth Is the Center of Thethe Universe]]: Earth is the Confederation capital, and a majority of their bureaucracy is headquartered there.
* [[Everyone Is Bi]]: Or at least Pen, Dirisha, Geneva, and Beel Carlos are. Group relationships/marriages seem to be rather common, as well.
* [[Faster-Than-Light Travel]]: Readily available via 'bender' ships, though depending on the distance involved, trips can still take weeks or months.
