Mopping the corridors of an inter-species starship, ageing aliens Sredeer and Kynis must survive the repercussions of a host of science fiction tropes kindled by their shipmates, without the ability to solve any of them.
While each episode is stand-alone, exploring parallel universes, time travel, exobiological outbreaks, mystical artefacts, and telekinetic aliens in new ways (or old ways, I'm not fussy), the series as a whole tests our heroes in overcoming their largest threat of all: a cute auto-cleaning robot, capable of usurping their job.

Set thousands of years in the future, A Spaceman, follows the escapades of a traitor to the human race throughout his lifetime from training as a Space Cadet to ultimately attempting to rule humanity. Aligned with the alien forces, the traitor seeks to rule the humans and aliens and destroy the people he once despised, but he may ultimately destroy himself. Violent good fun , this dark comedy pulls no punches with rotating stream of conscious narrative involving a few moral characters (some of whom actually make it out of it alive). Ultimately, we know the traitor must fall and good must win out, but in the end, do we really want it to? Amoral and highly intelligent the traitor flouts the forces of good and outsmarts the human forces as they gradually inch closer to capturing him, all the while letting the reader in on the fun of unadulterated evil. An addictive guilty pleasure, A Spaceman is an unforgettable ride with a surprise ending. NOTE: If you are offended my same-sex relationships or murder please go elseware.Complete
Crash Landing
*Book #1 In The Crashing Series* A long time ago, people used to think that Earth would be taken over by aliens. That we would all be destroyed from their advanced technology and uncaring demeanor towards Earthlings and our entire mass population in general. That we would be picked off like mice in a locked maze, all fighting to save ourselves, all trying to get to the cheese that was freedom. But we didn't know that the only thing that would destroy us would inevitably be ourselves. We didn't know that our planet was dying before our very eyes and our countries were at constant war with each other, each fighting for more power. More money. More everything. We didn't know....Until it was too late. •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Set in the year 2655, Earth has been completely demolished by poverty, famine and war, leaving nothing behind but a handful of survivors and most of the population relocated to space stations. Onboard the Celestial, one of the main stations in the galaxies, is 21 year old Mabel "Mae" Minerva. Forced to board the Celestial as a child many years ago along with her younger sister, Mae has always felt out of place in the galaxy, always preferring to spend her time rebuilding old space equipment then seeking the company of other humans. Though when a rumor is spread that her mother may be alive back on Earth, Mae springs into action to steal an armored spacecraft in hopes to save her mother from an unnatural death back on Earth. But when her miscalculations and malfunctioning ship takes her off course, she crash lands on a planet deemed to be uninhabitable. Until she meets an alien who burns hotter then the sun and who knows too much, and too little, about her kind.Complete
