THE DEFIANT IS STRANDED
Ethan and his son, Atton, have been arrested for high treason and conspiracy, crimes which will surely mean the death sentence, but it's beginning to look like theirs aren't the only lives in jeopardy--the Defiant is stranded in Sythian Space, and the vessel which Commander Caldin sent to get help has used all its fuel to get to Obsidian Station, only to find out that the station has been destroyed. Now the Defiant's last hope for a rescue is gone, and everyone on board is about to die a cold, dark death.
HUMANITY IS STILL FIGHTING ITSELF
Meanwhile, the notorious crime lord, Alec Brondi, is plotting to capture the remnants of Admiral Hoff's fleet, just as he captured the Valiant, but Hoff's men are on to him, and Brondi is about to get a lot more than he bargained for, forcing him to flee to the one place he kno will be safe--Dark Space.
AND A NEW INVASION IS ABOUT TO BEGIN
But Dark Space is only safe because the alien invaders don't know exactly where it is, and now they have a plan to find it which will threaten not only Dark Space, but the entire human race.

Description: The year is 2790 AD, and this is the Second Cold War. With space elevators and giant orbital fleets hovering over Earth, open war looks inevitable, and people are anxious to get away.**
The lines are drawn, with the communist Confederacy in the East, and the free citizens of the First World Alliance in the West. In hopes of finding a refuge from the looming war, the Alliance is sending Captain Alexander de Leon to explore an Earth-type planet, code-named Wonderland, but at the last minute before launch, a Confederate fleet leaves orbit on a trajectory that threatens both the mission and Alliance sovereignty. The resulting power struggle will determine not only the fate of Alexander's mission, but the fate of the entire human race.

From the Author
Excelsior is a hard science fiction mystery--that means it uses realistic science and physics. The book is the beginning of a new series, but it is completely standalone, so no need to read the sequel if you don't want to.
What else can I tell you? I'm very proud of this novel. It's fast-paced, suspenseful, full of strong, relatable characters, and it contains some very interesting ideas for a future of Earth. Besides all that, there's the usual human-interest sub-plot. Anyone who read Dark Space will like it, but this book will hit a much broader audience than those 250,000 people. This is the kind of book that anyone will love--sci-fi fan or not--so read on and enjoy!

Description: Drums were beating mercilessly; the air was thick and stifling, making every breath feel like his last. People were shouting somewhere in the distance, an argument of some kind. The accents were strange, but he could understand the words. His eyes were shut as though with glue, leaving everything in terrifying blackness.
"What have I done?"
Cackling laughter.
"You've brought me an elder. What a delightful gift, Gabrian. The relic, now, if you please."
"Come and get it."
. . .
While flying his courier vessel through an asteroid belt to lose pursuing patrollers, Aurelius accidentally flies through a portal into the future where he discovers that his entire civilization has been destroyed by some climactic event. The decaying ruins of cities are everywhere, tucked neatly between vast tracts of unfamiliar land. Whatever destroyed his civilization, reformed the face of Meridia, too.
Everything about Meridia has changed. Where before humans were the only sentient species, now there are countless magical and mythical beings. . . . Meridia has become Mrythdom.
Aurelius realizes that in this strange world his only hope of survival is to find a way back to his time. On the other side of the time gate, he encounters Gabrian, an ill-tempered old wizard who needs his help to get back the relic which brought Aurelius to the future. But the relic was stolen by a powerful gremlin mage, and recovering it will not be easy.
Along their quest they'll hunt with the giant woodsmen of Nordom in the towering Elder Forest. They'll fight gryphons, leviathans, werewolves, and trolls; they'll bring some of these strange creatures along on their quest, and they'll discover the city of Meria, far beneath the Misty Sea, ruled by mermaids and their human captives, a place where men are little more than studs to provide offspring for their mermaid wives, and where the old, the ugly, or the unwanted men must go to the Ring and fight for their lives as gladiators for the mermaids' entertainment. But as Aurelius travels through Mrythdom, he begins to realize that not everything is as it seems; he is but a pawn in a much larger game, and he is being watched. Aurelius must find a way home quickly before he loses everything in this Game of Time.
From the Author
Q1.
Mrythdom . . . what is it about?
A1.
At its heart, Mrythdom is an adventure through a world of fantasy that is both unique and familiar. It's a great book for fans of Lord of the Rings due to all the familiar elements, but there are plenty of original twists on conventional fantasy to keep even longtime fans of the genre intrigued.
Q2.
Do you solicit good revie?
A2.
I think it's easy to see from the mixed bag of ratings I get that they're real. If I solicit revie, I solicit honest ones, not fakes.
Q3.
What genre do you prefer to write for, Sci-fi or Fantasy?
A3.
I also write for romance under another name, but overall my favorite genre to read and write for is science fiction.
From the Inside Flap
Drums were beating mercilessly; the air was thick and stifling, making every breath feel like his last. People were shouting somewhere in the distance, an argument of some kind. The accents were strange, but he could understand the words. His eyes were shut as though with glue, leaving everything in terrifying blackness.
"What have I done?"
Cackling laughter.
"You've brought me an elder. What a delightful gift, Gabrian. The relic, now, if you please."
"Come and get it."
"If you insist." That voice rose precipitously: "Lashas su hur ciel!"
A mighty crack like thunder split the air, and Aurelius woke with a start. Before him he saw nothing but white plastered across the canopy, white with specks of brown and gray that looked like broken tree branches. It looked like packed snow. Aurelius's head swam dangerously. The last thing he remembered was being in space, the ISS interceptors chasing him through an asteroid field, a dark tunnel . . . and then here. Somehow, he'd crash-landed back on Meridia and lost all memory between the asteroid field and the planet.
The voices he'd heard while dreaming continued still. Aurelius thought to wonder why he could hear them, and then he noticed that his flight helmet had flown off its hook and smashed into the controls, flicking a number of switches, among others was the one for the external audio pickups.
"Blinda ter seer!"
A quick look at damage reports told him that his shields were completely overloaded, artificial gravity the same, but between the two they'd mostly protected both him and his ship from the crash. Unfortunately, now both systems would probably need expensive replacement parts before they'd start working again, meaning that his ship was all but crippled. He would be limited to low-G maneuvers, and while also completely denuded of shields, he may as well paint a target on his hull. Aurelius grimaced. Repairing those systems would take a giant chunk out of his profits for this run.
"Arevela mer seer!"
Aurelius frowned, now listening more attentively to the voices coming from outside. They're not speaking Meridian. He couldn't tell what language it was, but it was extremely rare to hear anything other than Meridian. The continental languages had been all but extinguished, and now they only existed in ancient books and as useless topics in academia.
Snapping out of his seat restraints, Aurelius stood and waved a hand over the doors leading from the cockpit to the rest of the ship. The deck was sloping at an angle which made walking back through his ship like walking uphill, but in a few quick strides he made it through the galley and to the port airlock. Aurelius waved his hand over the door controls and the inner airlock doors slid open. Suddenly remembering who he was and what he did for a living, Aurelius patted his hip and found his gun belt missing. With a grimace he hurried back to the cockpit and retrieved it. Novice mistake, he chided himself as he strapped on the belt and his forearm gauntlet. Last of all he fetched his helmet from the dashboard and snapped the seals shut around his neck with a hiss of air. Between his gauntlet, helmet, and armored flight suit, he could defeat ten suitless gunmen without even breaking a sweat.
When he returned to the airlock, he triggered the inner airlock doors, just in case someone tried to sneak into his ship while he was gone, then he armed his plasma pistol and held it in cool readiness as he slapped a palm against the outer airlock door controls. He was ready for whatever might greet him on the other side.
Or so he'd thought.
The doors slid open to reveal a splintered forest drenched in dirty snow. Two figures with staffs and cloaks were yelling at one another in that strange language he'd heard. They had their staffs outstretched and their hands curled like cla as they gestured angrily at one another. Flashes of roiling light bounced between them, eventually careering off to one side or the other, vaporizing snow and splintering wood with explosive force. Aurelius's ears rang from the noise. Between the two men lay a glowing orb. Both of them seemed to be trying to get to it, but whenever one set foot toward the orb, the other fired a flash of light--plasma?--to explode at his adversary's feet. Aurelius had trouble seeing what weapons the men were using. The bolts didn't look exactly like plasma, and from what he could tell, neither man held a weapon. The fire seemed to spring directly from their hands.
Impossible.
Even more impossibly, whenever a shot reached its target, it mysteriously bounced away, as though reflected by some type of armor or shielding, yet he could see no armor, and personal shields were usually only good for one or two hits, not half a dozen.
Despite their prior standoff, the two men began making great strides toward one another. As he watched, one man dove for the glowing orb, and the other pounced on him. They began wrestling in the dirty snow, growling and shouting at one another. The tips of their staffs glowed strangely, as though with inner light.
Aurelius took a step forward and a ramp extended automatically for him with a rolling clunk, clunk, clunk . . . he frowned; yet more damage from the crash.
Speaking to his suit, he said, "External speakers on," and then, "Put your hands up! Both of you!"
Both cloaked figures abruptly turned his way, momentarily distracted from one another and the glowing orb. He couldn't make out much of their features from the distance, but he was surprised to see that they both looked alike, both were old men--wrinkly, with white hair. One of the men spared him only a second of attention before turning to the glowing orb and declaring, "Traspara mer alu segera!"
And just like that, he vanished, and the glowing orb, too, leaving the other man pounding the dirt with his fists and screaming yet more alien words.
Aurelius gaped and blinked furiously. This had to be a dream.

Does Altruism Exist Culture, Genes, and the Welfare of Others
epub | 453.87 KB | English | David Sloan Wilson | Yale University Press
Description: David Sloan Wilson, one of the world's leading evolutionists, addresses a question that has puzzled philosophers, psychologists, and evolutionary biologists for centuries: Does altruism exist naturally among the Earth's creatures?The key to understanding the existence of altruism, Wilson argues, is by understanding the role it plays in the social organization of groups. Groups that function like organisms indubitably exist, and organisms evolved from groups. Evolutionists largely agree on how functionally organized groups evolve, ending decades of controversy, but the resolution casts altruism in a new light: altruism exists but shouldn't necessarily occupy center stage in our understanding of social behavior.

I Do And I Don't A History Of Marriage In The Movies
epub | 15.68 MB | English | Jeanine Basinger | 2012 | Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group
Description: From one of our leading film historians and interpreters: a brilliantly researched, irresistibly witty, delightfully illustrated examination of "the marriage movie": what it is (or isn't) and what it has to tell us about the movies--and ourselves.
As long as there have been feature movies there have been marriage movies, and yet Hollywood has always been cautious about how to label them--perhaps because unlike any other genre of film, the marriage movie resonates directly with the experience of almost every adult coming to see it. Here is "happily ever after"--except when things aren't happy, and when "ever after" is abruptly terminated by divorce, tragedy . . . or even murder. With her large-hearted understanding of how movies--and audiences--work, Basinger traces the many ways Hollywood has tussled with this tricky subject, explicating the relationships of countless marriages from Blondie and Dagwood to the heartrending couple in the Iranian A Separation, from...

Description: "Charlie is a fabulous amateur sleuth." -Midwest Book Review
Charlie and Drake are working a helicopter job in rural Maine when a man approaches and asks for their help.

Grinnell America's Environmental Pioneer by John Taliaferro
epub | 37.74 MB | English | John Taliaferro | 2019 | Liveright
Description: Before Rachel Carson, there was George Bird Grinnell-the man whose prophetic vision did nothing less than launch American conservation.
Hailed by the New York Times as "the father of American conservation," George Bird Grinnell (1849-1938), the Brooklyn-born son of a banker, looked beyond a burgeoning cityscape and saw a brighter future for the whole country. In Grinnell, John Taliaferro traces the naturalist's expansive trajectory from his time at Yale through his dozens of expeditions out west, riding alongside General Custer in the Black Hills before Little Bighorn, to the adventures that continued even after he became editor-in-chief of Forest & Stream. Drawing on no less than 40,000 pages of Grinnell's correspondence and dozens of travel notebooks, Taliaferro highlights a century of critical campaigns, from the protection of the vanishing buffalo and the creation of national parks that defined Theodore Roosevelt's administration to...

Description: From best-selling author of 'A Brilliant Little Operation', winner of the British Army Military History prize and the Royal marines History prize for 2013, comes the long neglected D-Day story of the Resistance uprising and subsequent massacre on the Vercors massif - the largest action by the French Resistance during the Second World War. In early 1941, three separate groups of plotters - one military, one political, one intellectual - began to organise and plan on and around the forbidding mountainous plateau near Grenoble - the Vercors. The aims of the groups were the same: to hasten the departure of the German occupiers; to restore the pride of France after its fall and the humiliations of the puppet Vichy government which followed; and to build a new France. The overwhelming desire to get rid of the Germans would unite them. Their different vie of the France they hoped for in the future would divide them. Over the next three years these sparks of resistance would grow to...
