Book Description
Answering a distress call near the edge of the solar system leads the unprepared crew of the Achilles to rediscover planets, technology and alien races lost in history to an ancient war in A Short Tour of the Galaxy. Only two years after the end of the third Solar Wide War, the crew of a defenseless commercial vessel is thrust into the galactic spotlight as they are unwittingly faced with decisions that could provoke yet another war between Earth and Europa's allies. Their relationships are put to the test as they disobey restrictions placed on mankind's exploration beyond their own solar system to save their newest crew member. What started as a tedious six-month gas cultivation, turns into first contact, a rescue mission and brunch on a space station. When forced to face their mistakes a final stop, in the heart of the enigmatic Shie Empire, is their only option. They only hope that they haven't avoided the next solar war, by starting the next galactic war instead.

Two Years in Outer Galaxy
Author: Tegegne Wassie
Publisher: Dorrance Publishing
ISBN: 1480995460
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 507
Book Description
Two Years in Outer Galaxy By: Tegegne Wassie Destiny is not what you can make or change: there are natural conditions beyond your challenge. A man unintentionally stepped on a wrong spot to find himself in a new city, in a new land, in a new world called “Biqat” in an outer galaxy. Fortunately, the world he ended up in was very civilized and had advanced technology. He was welcomed, treated well, and cured of his terminal illnesses that he could not find a cure for on Earth. He continued to travel the rest of Biqat, a nation of five big planets. From there, the man explored beyond Biqat. Let us share his exciting experiences. Knowledge is a collection of experiences. Naturally, we have acquired knowledge from collected experiences over time. We find knowledge conditioned and kept in human cages, while raw knowledge is in the open, free in the wild outside human cages. It has been said that you are what you feed. Books are one of the enhancers of experiences and we read them to enhance our experiences and we write books to share our experiences. Different experiences give spaces for evaluation and judgments to experiences we accumulate. The more we are exposed to different experiences, the more critial we are. We don’t take things as they are, at face value. This book touches almost every individual’s life in our society.
