With each cough, death looms closer.

A cure out of reach for a humble monk living in the desert.

New meaning enters his life when the most powerful leader on Andlios discovers Am’ranth’s inventions and tasks him with the project of a lifetime. That project? A symbol of power during a time of peace, a weapon called the pulseaxe.

An unlikely friendship between rivals is born, only to find itself tested by Am’ranth’s sickness and newfound desire to live. He’ll stop at nothing to accomplish, even if it means defying his new friend’s wishes by experimenting on himself. The rivalry born from this disagreement gives birth to a new future for humanity, one of legends. It also leads to the creation of a new race of hybrid people, with powers beyond the imagination at their fingertips where death is only an option.

Enter the Cymages.

Aliens that possess a technology so dangerous, so filled with the promise of power, that they only dare share with the winner of the Trials of Worth and Soul. The games are on!

The immediate price: a technology to save her father. But she can’t do it alone.

The ultimate price: a technology to save the world from the third—and last—collapse.

What are you willing to lose in order to win?

Only Craze seems to understand the galaxy is about to be lost.

He can no longer keep the evil Quassers contained, and winning the war gets harder. The Quassers join forces with another enemy and become more threatening, more destructive, and more murderous.

Planet after planet falls, and the only hope Craze has is a handful of tiny discoveries that might add up to a viable strategy. But he needs the other planets in the galaxy working with him. So far, everybody is still out for themselves, leaving him to make the gut-wrenching decisions—the deaths of innocents in exchange for everyone’s survival.

Will his efforts yield victory, or does humanity take its last breaths?

This is the eighth book in the science fiction series, The Backworlds. A space opera adventure

“Join NASA, see the stars.” They said.

No one mentioned getting stranded in the outer solar system.

They sure as heck didn’t mention alien space pirates!

Wil Calder is a human, the only one to leave our solar system.

But that was years ago.

Now, he’s a lonely smuggler, looking for a crew, because space is lonely and boring. Just a few folks to boss around once in a while, is that so much?

He’s finally found two perfect candidates. First, he’ll need to break them out of jail.

The best-laid plans of mice and spacemen, or something like that. Wil has a crew now so that’s good. Too bad they’ve found themselves in the middle of more trouble than they are prepared or qualified, to handle.

“If you tried to cross the Buck Rogers TV Show from the early 80’s with the Guardians of the Galaxy movies, you’d come close to the rollicking good fun of this classic space opera.” A reader

Fans of Farscape and Firefly will love the crew of the Ghost, in this raucous space opera adventure.

Join the crew of the Ghost on the first of many fantastic sci fi adventures.
