Description:

In 2681, history threatens to repeat itself... with catastrophic consequences.

After two Wars of Independence, the Union and Colonies stand on the brink of their most devastating conflict yet. When the Union turns its imperial hunger toward Kliinat, a verdant alien world, the consequences reach far beyond human space.

Marine Captain Matt "Skip" Carson has spent his career trying to escape his father's towering legacy. For Captain Tomoe Mori of the strike carrier Galatea, the sight of a Union warship brings back the searing memory of her parents' death. When the Union violates galactic law by interfering with Kliinat, both officers find themselves on a collision course with destiny.

On the surface of Kliinat, resistance fighter Maalek never expected to find allies among the stars. As his people suffer under brutal military occupation, the arrival of Colonial forces offers a desperate chance at liberation. But beneath the veneer of tactical assaults and strategic alliances, a darker threat emerges—the Hasha, an advanced alien empire whose military might dwarfs anything humanity has encountered.

The Union's desperate bid to change the tides of war is about to unleash something far more terrifying than they ever anticipated. Now, the crew of the Strike Carrier CCV Galatea stands as the last line of defense against a threat that could destroy not just the great powers of settled space, but all of humanity itself.

Perfect for fans of Battlestar Galactica, Firefly, and military science fiction classics, this action-packed space opera combines pulse-pounding combat with the timeless tale of those who fight for freedom among the stars.

"PURE JOY. The most compelling time-travel adventure we've read since Stephen King's 11/22/63." -- Bella Wright, BestThrillers.com.

PAST IS PRESENT, a standalone thriller, is a heady mix of mystery, music, mirth, the missing--and melancholy. Not to mention time-travel with a twist, and how a single event can echo down the decades. Ready?

One quarter of the adult Western population believe they have had an out-of-body experience. Linda Mitchell, a young, Vietnam War widow living with her 3-year-old daughter in 1968, has an OBE while meditating. She "wakes" on a couch, wearing a T-shirt with an odd word (Reebok), and sees a local newspaper with today's date, October 8. The year? 1993. She repeats the meditative steps and "returns" home. Anxiety begets curiosity. Can consciousness travel through time, and briefly inhabit another body? The next night...

October 1993. Lately, Sally Mitchell, age 28, wakes each morning exhausted. Her clothes closet seems, well, whatever. Even her cat avoids her. Perhaps she's a sleepwalker. Must be stress: job, grad school, persistent ex-boyfriend, etc.

October 1993. Vintage rock deejay, "Jurassic Jim" Fleetwood, is heading in the wrong direction. As the world rolls forward to the 21st century, Jim is stuck in reverse, a connoisseur of the dusty past. One night he hears his friend, Sally, talk in her sleep---and the past darkens his life in an unforeseen way. He soon learns that her mother disappeared when Sally was three.

What began a quarter century ago is coming full circle.

Timeless advice for temporal travelers: discard your clocks and calendars. When the past is present...the present is past.

Description:

A billion years in the future, humanity is extinct.But Shakespeare remains.A machine civilization, so far advanced that it has the power to recreate lost civilizations, stumbles upon the works of the playwright, William Shakespeare.With only those plays to represent humanity, the machines must decide whether humanity is worth resurrecting or not.The only way to know the plays is to stage them.Enter J-9, although she prefers to be called Janine. She is a human-like construct, created by the machines, to enter and experience the plays of Shakespeare, as they run in simulation, indistinguishable from reality.Based on Janine’s impressions of humanity, drawn from her experiences of living within the unfolding plays, the machines will render their judgment: is humanity worth saving or shall we be consigned to oblivion?The stakes are higher than the Bard could have ever imagined.Created by Ted Neill, the Post Apocalyptic Space Shakespeare remains true to the plots of William Shakespeare’s plays while introducing stage directions that make the text more accessible to modern readers. The addition of Janine as an outsider looking in—and caught up in her own story framing the action of the plays—provides commentary and insight usually buried in academic papers but delivered here with heart and humor. It’s an original take on classic plays that will remind readers why the plays endure five hundred, and maybe five billion, years after they were written. Traditionally, Shakespeare’s plays, do not need to be read in a particular order. These “simulations,” do have an order, especially as Janine’s story evolves with them.Simulation Order:HamletOthelloTwelfth NightAs You Like ItA Mid-Summer Night’s DreamMuch Ado About NothingTaming of the ShrewRomeo & JulietCymbelineThe TempestMacBethRichard IIITroilus & CressidaPericlesKing LearJulius CesarAnthony & Cleopatra
