Self Righteous

Many of us have witnessed someone walk free despite being guilty of a crime. Perhaps we have even felt the urge to take justice into our own hands but held back due to fear of reprisal or the legal consequences. But what happens when a victim, or someone connected to a crime, decides to act? Does seeking vengeance make them self-righteous, or are they justified in making the guilty pay?

In this gripping and suspenseful novel, Jake does exactly that. As he takes justice into his own hands, he leads the police on a relentless chase, leaving behind cryptic clues about his next target. With each riddle, the stakes rise. Can the police decipher his messages and catch him before he strikes again, or will Jake continue to outmaneuver them while carrying out his version of justice?

The Corrigan Factor

Two ships, Alcyone and Solira, an alien vessel, both in trouble from unprovoked attacks.

Two captains: one still aboard his disabled ship, the other picked up by Alcyone’s sister ship, Electra, and accused of desertion.

A daughter eager for reunion with a father she hasn’t seen in years.

The father who all but abandoned her and who has been conducting illegal scientific experiments and profiting from the venture.

An ambassador in a hurry, eager to take credit for a possible first contact.

And a minor crew member aboard Electra, whose unexpected abilities unite them all.

Tamara’s Gift

Tamara’s Gift, the enthralling sequel to Kennedy’s Ghosts, unfolds six decades later, tracing the extraordinary journey of a baby girl left at an orphanage doorstep, humorously claimed by the matron to be delivered by a ‘stork.’ This whimsical tale harbors a grain of truth as this enigmatic girl blossoms into a formidable force of modern times, spearheading a revolutionary paradigm of A.I. interfacing technology and beyond. But who is she? Possessing an intellect that’s off the charts and a mysterious celestial connection, could she be a harbinger of more global unrest or the key to long-awaited peace?

As the saga unfolds, weaving in characters and descendants from the first book, it challenges our notions of humanity’s place in the cosmic tapestry. From America to China and back, Tamara’s odyssey unfolds towards a sinister, yet enigmatic climax, seemingly guided by higher beings striving to steer humanity away from a precipice of annihilation. The uncovering of her genetic lineage unsettles the geopolitical balance, igniting a tussle between the forces of darkness and light.

Broken Contract

In a future where Earth’s natural balance has been shattered, humanity teeters between ecological collapse and an uncertain life in space. Broken Contract unfolds across three interconnected worlds: the rainforests of the Amazon, the mineral-rich landscapes of Transylvania, and 3STAR Alpha, an artificial habitat orbiting Earth. As scientists, corporate interests, and indigenous communities struggle over dwindling resources, the fate of an entire species – one whose survival is bound to humanity’s own – hangs in the balance. The last remaining bees, hidden deep in the jungle, hold a secret that could alter the course of history. But will humanity recognize its own mistakes before it is too late?

Told through the eyes of researchers, industrialists, and those fighting to protect the land, this novel explores the fragile connections between human ambition and the natural world. Against a backdrop of technological ingenuity and environmental devastation, Broken Contract challenges us to reconsider what we owe to the planet and to future generations. As those in power push forward with a new frontier beyond Earth, one question remains: can humanity escape the consequences of its own recklessness, or will the final cost be paid in silence?

Mars Trek

Mars Trek chronicles the first human mission to Mars in the year 2076, a joint endeavour between the United States and Russia. The American team travels aboard a rotating spacecraft that simulates gravity, while the Russian team opts for a zero-gravity vessel.

Although a work of science fiction, Mars Trek offers broad appeal to general readers, much like Andy Weir’s The Martian. It combines visionary technology and scientifically grounded detail with a compelling portrayal of the human side of space exploration. From the journey through deep space to life on the Martian surface, the novel captures both the excitement and the emotional weight of such a mission.

With its unique approach and thoughtful execution, Mars Trek is especially timely in light of current discussions surrounding the feasibility of human travel to Mars, including Elon Musk’s highly ambitious timelines.

Blending technical accuracy with vivid storytelling, the novel presents thrilling moments as the crew faces unexpected emergencies, while also exploring the personal challenges and triumphs of the individuals on board.

The Portal

This is the story of Robert Pearson’s perilous encounters with a time portal. Robert begins his journeys as a twelve-year-old boy in 1955. During a blizzard, he discovers the portal as a means of escape. The catch is that while the portal saves Robert’s life in different time periods, it also always places him in jeopardy in another.

Whenever Robert enters a new time period, it feels as though he’s lived there all his life; in most of them, he holds a position of authority. It seems that every place the portal transports Robert to is a potential trap. At times, Robert communicates with the portal, which is some kind of entity composed of both energy and matter, fluttering in and out of reality. While the portal never forces Robert to enter, it always leaves him with the same choice: flee or die.

In the hospital, Robert tells everyone about his experiences, but no one believes him. However, the portal has dealt Robert an “Ace” that he doesn’t yet realize he holds.

Har Megiddon

After finding her, they learn trouble has been brewing for a year. Their mysterious enemies track them down, and they flee to the place that links all the chaos: Har Megiddon dyson swarm. While there, they ‘fit in like tourists’ and covertly try to figure out what’s going on. Their cover story gives them a reason to enjoy some night-life, but when they start getting close to answers, their progress is slowed by friendly, but uncooperative, administrators. Danger mounts, and they learn it’s not just their lives at stake, the events unfolding around them threaten to plunge their benevolent Empire into a war that could destroy everything.

The Natural Order

One of the world’s top scientists, Nigel Mitchell, is driven by a nagging fear: that life on Earth is a cosmic accident, a mistake the universe is trying to correct. This compels him to make the most of every day, dedicating himself to helping friends, family, and society. His research at the world’s largest laboratory provides him the resources to pursue this goal, searching for signs of life in distant galaxies and striving to understand the universe’s origins. But a mistake in his lab threatens to destroy everything. Obsessed with enhancing life, Nigel now faces the possibility of destroying the planet. His search for a remedy takes him from the depths of the Earth to the surface of the Moon, all while wrestling with his fear of a cosmic mistake. As the clock ticks down, and with the lives of his loved ones hanging in the balance, Nigel begins to suspect that the very error that threatens Earth might be the key to restoring the universe’s natural order.
