How To Create the Universe

Have you ever wished that science and religion shook hands? It is possible if both surrendered their centuries-old views and renewed their vision. In this book I will take you through simple logic and alternative thinking to show you that science and religion are actually inseparable. Yes, God created this world, but not by simply pronouncing it into existence, but instead worked remarkably hard to accomplish this extraordinary feat. This book will humbly present you with history, ideas, and inspiration to do your own research and draw your own conclusions.

Golden Ratio: Lost

In the country of Miribeaux, intelligence agents find themselves confounded by the most unusual prisoner any of them have ever met. Lia is a woman who doesn’t exist, at least officially. She claims to be an explorer, captured where nobody should be by pure chance.

While she does not appear to be a terrorist, her sudden arrival on a government black site raises serious questions. Nothing she says could possibly be true, but every other possible explanation seems even more dangerous. Is she an alien, angel or even a devil? Can they explain the strange occurrences that seem to follow her? More importantly, can she escape before she is forced to reveal secrets that will cause two worlds to collide?

Golden Ratio: Accounts

With the cat well and truly out of the bag, Lia has agreed to stay in The Republic Mirabeaux to help her one-time captors come to terms with the situation and learn to use their new abilities.

They have a lot to learn, and with great power come great homework, apparently.

None of them can foresee the challenges ahead of them, or guess what they may become, but they have far less time than any of them realize.

Adventures of the TSEA Ship the Admiral Byrd

Viktor Haas served with distinction during the Andevan Wars as Captain of the Sydney. The Sydney was a Deep-Space Class, Heavy Cruiser in the fleet of the Terran Space Exploration Administration, or TSEA.

Captain Haas takes command of a very different ship – the Admiral Byrd. The Admiral Byrd, affectionately known as the ‘Byrd,’ is a Scout-Class science vessel. The Byrd has been tasked with a mission that is very different to those Captain Haas usually undertakes.

Although Captain Haas brings certain of his Sydney crew with him, the crew on board the Byrd, and the ship itself, requires that the Captain embrace a very different command style than he usually employs. He has been told, however, that if this mission is a success, his captaincy of the Sydney will be revisited.

The Byrd is known throughout the fleet for having problems. Will Engineer Siksika be able to fix those problems and allow the ship to finish its mission?

In these pages is an adventure that takes you not only to different planets but to other places of interest in space where you will meet very different creatures and societies.

Abduction

“What a day!” Rachel wrote in her journal while seated cross-leg on the cool, dry floor with her back against the refuge cave wall. “Today, the crew was chased by malevolent aliens for the sole purpose of capture and torture. They succeeded in stunning Zar-ra, and I took several hits to my torso. Fortunately, I was not harmed permanently, but my shoulders and chest still felt seared where the bruises were located.” Rachel smirked, for she fared better than her attackers.

After a thoughtful pause, she continued with her writing, “This war has changed me. I have discovered capabilities unknown previously drawing from inner strength that I never knew I had. Love makes one capable of extraordinary courage and sacrifice. Even the two least trusting gentarians, Pel-ban and Arana-hiz, now see me in a different way. I am hopeful that their change in attitude towards me will make my job easier in the future. We shall see.”

A Small and Distant Galaxy: The Third Quadrant

Book 2 follows a science survey into the Third Quadrant, a desolate wasteland left by ancient asteroids. Scenes of friends and family back on the crew’s home planets are woven through the story. New characters join with major and minor characters we met in the first book to crew the expedition. They explore a desert planet and intervene in the shunning of a young cave dweller, who joins them on the ship. While surveying an unexpected gas giant, they lose a crew member to its toxic gas cloud. The expedition crew moves on, not knowing he survived, and we follow his healing and acceptance into the planet’s forest culture. The third planet the crew finds is too massive to approach, but the debris orbiting it proves to hold important clues. The different threads of narrative in the book come together as a shift in the currents of time and space, leaving people with very different memories of shared reality. The crew return home, but there are several surprises on the way. They find their lost crew member again, mourning for the love he left behind. Back on their home planets, there is still one more mystery to resolve.
