DO YOU FEAR DEATH? OR WHAT LIES AFTER IT? "Darkness is most beautiful when it sparkles." The solar system is in chaos. Billions lie dead in the wake of a tragedy inflicted solely by the actions of the late Empress Validus. And her legacy could very well be the end of humanity, for the warhead that destroyed an entire world, the warhead she sent out as a warning, did not malfunction, it was reprogrammed by someone or something now racing towards them at a speed faster than light... But instead of uniting to confront the greatest challenge to ever face the human race, fear and insanity has gripped the survivors and thousands are still dying in the guerrilla warfare that rages on and over all five remaining planets. It is now up to former slave Aliya Soter and rebel pilot Miriam Ferox to try and save mankind from extinction. But will anyone be able to reason with the genocidal aliens just days away... or is this the end of everything? ***You can now buy Book 1 on Amazon, iBooks and Barnes & Noble*** ***Stay tuned for information about Book 3, Eternity Opened!*** Enjoy!

The cyborg was huge, built like a juggernaut, and carrying a weapon the size of a rocket launcher. All to hunt down a skinny hooker, weighing a hundred pounds on a good day. It was pretty funny really, when you thought about it. She almost smiled before the terror kicked back in. Portal. A collection of Sci-Fi short stories, written for ForbiddenPlanet's smackdown SFSD 7. Includes Portal, Metropolitan, One Night at the Pub, and Star Fallen. My final entry Star Clash won the smackdown and now appears as a free download on Amazon etc

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.
