  We are all born as animals and live the life that animals live: we sleep, eat, reproduce, and fight. There is, however, another order of living, which the animals do not know, that of awe before the mystery of being ... that can be the root and branch of the spiritual sense of one’s days. That is the birth - the Virgin Birth - in the heart of a properly human, spiritual life.-- Joseph CampbellAnd speaking of sex, the Immaculate Conception does not mean Jesus was conceived in the absence of sex. It means Mary was conceived without Original Sin. That's all it has ever meant. And according to the tabloids, Mary is apparently the only one who can make such a claim. The Jesus thing is called virgin birth.-- George CarlinFollow two unhumans, a robot and a squid, as they begin the vast expansion of humanity into the solar system.

  Mars the Warning - Book 3 of 6:...

  Mars the Warning 
  Book 3 of 6 – the fractured alliance. 
  This completely new third story in the series I have written is summarized below; 
  As humanity fractures over how to respond to the awakened Martians, Dr. Lin Mei’s diplomatic faction attempts peaceful communication, while General Drake’s militarists launch devastating attacks. Lin’s team deciphers Martian signals, learning of their ancient civilization and the pain caused by human terraforming. But Drake’s assault provokes a brutal retaliation—crystalline weapons dismantle human outposts. When Drake prepares to annihilate Mars with the Dreadnought’s orbital lance, Lin and her allies stage a mutiny aboard Olympus Station. In a zero-gravity showdown, Lin disables the weapon, but not before the Martians unleash their final warning: towering spires that render Mars uninhabitable for humans. Escaping with a handful of survivors, Lin receives a cryptic star map—a Martian offering of a new world, on the condition humanity never returns. As Earth’s exodus begins, Mars transforms, its surface shimmering with alien rebirth. The survivors carry forward a fragile hope: coexistence may yet be possible, but only by respecting boundaries older than humankind itself.  
  This is the third of six audiobooks in the series, the others will be in the very near future and I do hope you enjoy this third one, and its only $3. 
  I have worked very hard and meticulously to provide you with an enjoyable experience, the initial opening credit music which does run to approximately 2 plus minutes sets the scene, so to speak, this is heavy metal first but give it a chance and you will be surprised (I felt the martian beings would be extremely angry over humans trying to steal their planet hence the sound) ends with a warning sound music track like an alarm as the next episode will see them emerge to do battle, 1 minutes plus.  
  The book itself runs to about 15 minutes and is narrated in my own voice.
