Mom and Dad have disappeared in China and my Uncle Dunc is a talking, break-dancing Canada goose. Time Agent Triple Oh has been assigned to protect me from Murga and I am stuck with my grumpy Grandma. What else could go wrong? Well, my new school has a quantum computer with really, real virtual reality and I am stuck on the Royal Mail Ship Titanic which is about to collide with an iceberg. Readers comments:- 'This book is full of humour and imagination, it is a good read - stick with it.' 'I laughed out loud! You really are a writer of funny material, good plot lines too. Loved the image of the green bubbles.' 'So, so good, the humour is great! The smoke trailing out of the bag, lovely detail - the story gets better and better.' 'Brilliant! You are a very good story teller, I love the breadth of the writing, smells, virtual reality plausibility and the detail - 'poured himself tea from a vacuum flask.' I was there with them'.

For over a millennia, the Line of the Sol Empress had reigned over the scattered planets of the Sol Commonwealth, exerting her constitutional authority and influence for the betterment of all humanity. In a brazen nuclear attack, she and her daughters were murdered. Priestess Celeste Ciel went on the run, with her the last hope for a new Empress. Alone and labeled a terrorist, Celeste stowed away on the cargo starship belonging to a man nicknamed 'Moon', a loner and cynical ex-military engineer who would rather be left alone. Powerful corrupt forces feared the precious package she carried and spared no expense or atrocity to hunt her down. United by reluctant circumstance, Celeste and Moon fled across the galaxy in a desperate quest to restore the Line of the Empress. Previously titled "Children of the Sun and Moon".

They called her 'Mouse'. Kie Loren just wanted to be left alone to study the music she loved. But now she was teamed up on a biological survey project with Ben Finn, the son of Mora and Gan Finn, the heroes credited with saving this newly terraformed world called 'Paradise'. It didn't help that Ben was handsome and irresistibly charming. The most infuriating part was that he knew it. Oh, and he also had chocolate... But Ben was the least of her problems. An alien civilization had begun terraforming this world long before humans arrived. And now they wanted it back.

With the help of her protector, Waithe, she sets off on a quest to cure the Taint. The Order and Lord Scias seek to bring her back by whatever means necessary. The stakes are higher than they know as an ancient deep Darkness rises. And it wants Ceres.

The first terraformed world, Tau Ceti Four, was now ready for colonization. Some called it Paradise, and it seemed a fitting name. The initial conditions before the terraforming began were perfect, too perfect for botanist Mora Torr. Something was not right. Engineer Gan Finn came over with the other colonists on the Ark Hope ship. He, like Mora, was as much running away from an anguished past as seeking Paradise. But twelve light-years distance itself does not cure broken hearts. "So, are there any alien jubjub birds, bandersnatches, or jabberwocks around here I should be worried about?" Laughter rolled from her mouth at the Alice in Wonderland reference. "Oh, nothing like that. It's not the big scary creatures we should worry about, besides other humans that is, but the tiny ones. History has shown us that things like bacteria, virus, and small parasites are the real killers. The deadliest creature in all the human history is a mosquito with a pathogen." ** Re-edited ** ** Open Novella II - Short List and Ambassador Pick ** ** Wattpad Editor's Choice (January 2020) **

American security agents, suspecting Dr Zhang is hacking into U.S. computers, try to abduct him. The Canadian Security Intelligence Service is also interested. And Murga is back in town with a proposition. I agree to tests of my super normal flying ability and he will release my parents. There are minor conditions. I have to help steal the secret of the atom bomb and survive the final battle of the second world war. Cover quotation: "Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds," is from the Bhagavad Gita made famous by Robert Oppenheimer, head of the Los Alamos Laboratory, after the successful detonation of the world's first atomic bomb in New Mexico 1945 July 16. Author's note. I am publishing two non fiction books with Dunc MacPhun on Wattpad. 'Who the Hell are We,' is a history of everything and more exciting than most works of fiction. 'Sad or Happy - Choose,' is a self help work intended to help people survive in this difficult, complex and wonderful civilization.
