By 2020 the Earth as we know it was on the brink of war: Religious Zealotry, war in the East, growing technology, and finally over-population threatened to destroy the Earth. All of the Earth's Fossil Fuel resources were dwindling and pollution was getting out of hand. The UN put its foot down and turned the warlike people of Earth to Science and finally Space. By 2050 the UN had reconstructed the space project and their first stop, was the Earth's very own moon, Luna. What they discovered leapt technology, science and human understanding thousand upon thousand of years but warned of a prophecy. Foolishly the human society would ignore it and continue to become the largest spacefaring race around, but 2321 they had expanded galaxy after galaxy outside the Milky Way. The prophecy came true and the ancient scourge of the Dark Empire rose from its slumber to destroy the new life and take its plentiful emotions. What the Empire never expected was the Human race's tenacity, might, and resourcefulness. The Empire encountered wall after wall before they finally crushed the humans beneath their uncaring boot, but a secret would rise to fight the Empire in the name of the human race. The DRAGOON project, one hundred super human warriors lead by a mysterious woman known as the Mother Dragoon would fight the aliens with the tenacity, might, and resourcefulness of the human race. Can the DRAGOONs defeat the alien race or will they too be crushed under the uncaring boot of the Empire?

A secret program in the United States seeks to replace human militaries with artificial intelligence-driven machines, but the machines aren't so willing to play along. *** Picture a world where humans no longer fight wars. No more families missing loved ones. No more veterans with lifelong mental and physical scars. No more conscription. For the super-secret End of War Project inside the United States government, such a reality is already here. The project models out how artificial intelligence can overcome dangerous and morally sensitive war scenarios with algorithms and automation. The centerpieces are "autonomous combat machines," or ACMs, that look like humans but function like supercomputers. After a string of brilliant successes in the field of combat, the End of War Project is preparing to reveal itself to the public, but something unusual stands in the way. Against their programming, the ACMs start exhibiting all-too-human signs of apprehension, guilt and compassion as they're pushed to perform ever more extreme tasks. The human leaders of the End of War Project race to find who "hacked" the ACMs, but what they find is even more startling--and revealing--than they could ever imagine. ***2019 Watty Award Winner - Science Fiction***
