### Robert Walker beyond the trilogy

Robert Walker recurs far beyond the Scorpion books. The novels’ own portfolios and descriptions name him in [The Paradise of the Devil](https://stephenfmontagnabooks.com/books/the-paradise-of-the-devil/) (as a corporal), [Bio-Level Three](https://stephenfmontagnabooks.com/books/bio-level-three/), [Sandstorm](https://stephenfmontagnabooks.com/books/sandstorm/) and [Trump’s Brass Escalator](https://stephenfmontagnabooks.com/books/trump-s-brass-escalator/) (as a lieutenant), and [The Vulture Will Lead You to Death](https://stephenfmontagnabooks.com/books/the-vulture-will-lead-you-to-death/) and [God’s Sword of Justice](https://stephenfmontagnabooks.com/books/god-s-sword-of-justice/) (as a captain). The author has not published a single chronology for those books; each stands on its own.

### Other connected novels

- [Sandstorm](https://stephenfmontagnabooks.com/books/sandstorm/), then [Trump’s Brass Escalator](https://stephenfmontagnabooks.com/books/trump-s-brass-escalator/): the author describes the second as the continuation of the first.
