Synopsis

Rital Madz had always viewed his cousin Den's obsession with recreating the powered flight of Ancient Humans as a waste of time and a good scientific mind. But their arguments must be set aside when an epidemic sweeps the continent, testing the fragile peace between Sime and Gen Territories that keeps both larities of humans alive. Trains stop running, factories close, and infected adolescents on both sides of the border die when their bodies undergo the strain of turning either Sime or Gen.
 
Rital leads the team desperately searching for an antidote to stem the epidemic, only to find that the only supply of a crucial ingredient lies on the other side of a river in flood stage. Suddenly Den's annoying hobby becomes the only means of transporting that ingredient And a single, untried young pilot must fly to retrieve it in an untested prototype, before the fabric of society unravels entirely.

    Captain Adam Cain, US Navy SEALs (RET), is a hero to Humanity, in demand for celebrity appearances throughout the Orion-Cygnus Union star empire. All in all, it's a pretty good life after twenty years of death-defying adventures among the stars. Yet all that is about to change . . .  
     
     
      
    In The Unreachable Stars, Adam finds himself inadvertently pulled into a galaxy-wide political struggle and deception where nothing but the very survival of the Milky Way is at stake. 
     
     
      
    As the story opens . . . The five-thousand-year-old mutant alien Panur has parted ways with the ravenous Sol-Kor and their Queen, seeking refuge with Adam Cain at his Lake Tahoe home. But now the Queen has made the Milky Way Galaxy an offer it can't refuse: Return Panur to me in exchange for immunity from attack. 
     
     
     
    Now, with an entire galaxy out gunning for them, Adam and Panur narrowly escape the first attempt to capture the mutant, and they head off into space in Adam's suped-up Pegasus II starship, seeking protection and support from a whole assortment of characters from Adam's past. This includes his old sidekick Riyad Tarazi, the aliens Kaylor and Jym, the leader of the Fringe Pirates Angar, and the voluptuous Arieel Bol.

    A Little Journey by Ray Bradbury - She'd paid good money to see the inevitable... and then had to work to make it happen! 
    There were two important things—one, that she was very old; two, that Mr. Thirkell was taking her to God. For hadn't he patted her hand and said: "Mrs. Bellowes, we'll take off into space in my rocket, and go to find Him together." 
    And that was how it was going to be. Oh, this wasn't like any other group Mrs. Bellowes had ever joined. In her fervor to light a path for her delicate, tottering feet, she had struck matches down dark alleys, and found her way to Hindu mystics who floated their flickering, starry eyelashes over crystal balls. She had walked on the meadow paths with ascetic Indian philosophers imported by daughters-in-spirit of Madame Blavatsky. She had made pilgrimages to California's stucco jungles to hunt the astrological seer in his natural habitat. She had even consented to signing away the rights to one of her homes in order to be taken into the shouting order of a temple of amazing evangelists who had promised her golden smoke, crystal fire, and the great soft hand of God coming to bear her home. 
    None of these people had ever shaken Mrs. Bellowes' faith, even when she saw them sirened away in a black wagon in the night, or discovered their pictures, bleak and unromantic, in the morning tabloids. The world had roughed them up and locked them away because they knew too much, that was all. 
    And then, two weeks ago, she had seen Mr. Thirkell's advertisement in New York City: 
    COME TO MARS! 
    Stay at the Thirkell Restorium for one week. And then, on into space on the greatest adventure life can offer! 
    Send for Free Pamphlet: "Nearer My God To Thee." Excursion rates. Round trip slightly lower.

    During his many years on the hostile Martian frontier, Victor Sierra-Bravo had learned that the keys to survival were keeping a low profile and steering clear of other people's troubles. But, there was no way to avoid the growing wave of chaos created by the arrival of the newest soft and inexperienced Blue Earth visitor, the fancy-dressing, easy-going, wealthy playboy, Mr. Thaddeus Bridger. This time, after more than four decades on Mars, Victor would be lucky to make it out alive.
