An ancient alien relic is found by an asteroid mining crew, which turns out to be much more than just a strange black opaque cube. Logan, brother to one of the miners, is whisked away along with several other specialists to work on a secret project. Under the watchful eyes of their personal Security Special Forces agents, Logan and colleagues begin to become suspicious behind the motives of the Jackson-Stone Corp. Jackson-Stone Corp. is the largest company in the world. With two space elevators, the company monopolized space trade, mining, zero-G tech development and many other facets of the worlds economy. The company even controlled the government of New Congo. When the power of the cube is harnessed, will it be used for good or will greed turn humanity down a dangerous path? This is a working rough draft of my first novel, i would appreciate any feedback that anyone is willing to give. I have not yet finished the novel, so some parts will be more polished than others. Thank you.

A young astronaut participating in a DARPA black-ops grapples with his failing sanity during his perilous, final mission. ALSO INCLUDES: The first 5 chapters of the upcoming dark, sci-fi epic THE GRIM, the first book the The Grim Saga. The war was lost so long ago that it is spoken about only in rumored whispers. The idea of freedom is nothing more than a myth. All Rey has ever known is the life of a slave. Toiling away in the sprawling camp for his barbaric, pitiless overlords. He has heard stories. That once humans were the dominant species. That before the spread of the virus, that twisted the bodies and minds of men into the dominant creatures they are today, people were free. He doesn't waste time believing such nonsense. Until one day his world is upturned when a mysterious young slave is dragged through the high walls of his camp, and he learns that the legends were true. That there is more than the camp and the deep dark woods that surround it. That there are still humans out there who are free. That there are still humans who fight for our species. And that he may have the power to turn the tide of the war. In this world, at the crucible of extinction, heroes are not destined, they forge their own destinies through grit and blood and sacrifice. There are no Chosen Ones, there are ones who make the difficult choices. There are no prophecies, no magic. Just flawed people caught in a struggle for survival, learning what it means to live, love, be free, and most importantly, what it means to be human. THE GRIM will be available soon in all major digital retail outlets.
