Book Description
By 2227, space travel is commonplace. Milestone achievements in space are realized in the fields of surgery and manufacturing. The solar system is teaming with space stations, territories and even a new country. This new age comes with longstanding challenges. The greatest being the enormous amount of building materials and fuel required for this expansion. As distant spatial mines are exhausted, fierce competition for resources threatens civil war. Our only chance is to accomplish the impossible. We look to a new frontier; untapped, neighboring star systems with room for a displaced population. Unable to surpass the speed of light or find a suitable worm hole, we experiment with an unorthodox means of rapid deep space exploration. Accomplishing the impossible results in an outcome no one sees coming.

Stories of the Raksura: The Dead City & The Dark Earth Below
Author: Martha Wells
Publisher: Start Publishing LLC
ISBN: 1597805807
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 273
Book Description
Moon, Jade, and other favorites from the Indigo Cloud Court return with two new novellas from Martha Wells. Martha Wells continues to enthusiastically ignore genre conventions in her exploration of the fascinating world of the Raksura. Her novellas and short stories contain all the elements fans have come to love from the Raksura books: courtly intrigue and politics, unfolding mysteries that reveal an increasingly strange wider world, and threats both mundane and magical. “The Dead City” is a tale of Moon before he came to the Indigo Court. As Moon is fleeing the ruins of Saraseil, a groundling city destroyed by the Fell, he flies right into another potential disaster when a friendly caravanserai finds itself under attack by a strange force. In “The Dark Earth Below,” Moon and Jade face their biggest adventure yet; their first clutch. But even as Moon tries to prepare for impending fatherhood, members of the Kek village in the colony tree’s roots go missing, and searching for them only leads to more mysteries as the court is stalked by an unknown enemy. Stories of Moon and the shape changers of Raksura have delighted readers for years. This world is a dangerous place full of strange mysteries, where the future can never be taken for granted and must always be fought for with wits and ingenuity, and often tooth and claw. With these two new novellas, Martha Wells shows that the world of the Raksura has many more stories to tell…

The Asteroid Miners
Author: C. W. Hallett
Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 1496939506
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 335
Book Description
The story follows the lives of four ordinary individuals who by happenchance came to be working together. They, like most people were doing their best to get ahead by using the skills they had acquired on their journey through life up to that point. Little did they know that they had other skills that would take them in a completely unexpected direction. They had no hint of the turn of events that would make their names instantly recognized anywhere in the solar system or turn them into global heros. The storyline is not the only thing that presents the reader with the opportunity to transplant themselves into the story. Almost every challenge that is overcome and structure that is mentioned is possible using technology available today or at least within the grasp of todays innovators. The author presents one solution to the reader, but some readers will not be able to resist the temptation to visualize a different and possibly better course of action. This story should provide plenty of food for thought for people who like to problem solve. There are no magical beings in this story or characters with superhuman powers, so the author felt compelled to include some sexual content.

The Moons of Valder
Author: Paul Saunders
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1664104933
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 272
Book Description
W261 was reared in an incubation tube by the Moon System of Valder’s ruthless dictator as a warrior to execute his bidding. However, W621’s inner yearning and belief that there was something better than a life as one his warriors discovered a completely different destiny. Imagine if Adolph Hitler’s Third Reich had succeeded in fulfilling his vision of 1000 years of rule. “The Moons of Valder” picks up what life might be like under after 1000 years of such a dictatorship. The book may be described as ‘Gothic Sci-Fi’. It is has elements of “Pilgrim’s Progress”, “The Chronicles of Narnia” and “A Brave New World”. A number of people who know little about faith have found that using a fictional format can be helpful to understand the underlying principles without what can appear confusing jargon. This is such a work and the third book by the author.
