When a supernatural force begins dragging the International Space Station from orbit, geophysicist Alex Cave is called in to investigate the situation, in this science fiction techno-thriller.

Alex receives an urgent message about an unusual geologic event in Iceland. Giant globules of molten rock are defying the laws of physics by floating up out of an ancient glacier. Soon satellites start falling from the sky, and Alex begins a desperate race to find the cause, and if possible, stop it.

Things go from bad to worse when the same force begins pulling the moon closer to Earth, and his attempts to find a solution are thwarted by a ruthless woman determined to make a profit from the dire circumstances.

Alex must also deal with his live-in girlfriend, Fala, who thinks he's just an adventure junkie, leaving her and her 10-year old daughter on a moment's notice without any explanation or concern for her feelings. Because of the clandestine nature of the operation, it's ripping his heart out that he can't tell her he is on a top-secret mission to save the lives of everyone on the planet.

And as if that wasn't bad enough, a massive emerald asteroid with a core of solid gold is on a collision course with Earth and will impact in six-days.All Rights Reserved

ABBA - Into The Unknown... by agnetha_ulvaeus13

This is a sequel to my story Lovers Live A Little Longer, so I suggest reading that first or you will be very confused. This story takes place in 2014, 8 years after the end of Lovers Live A Little Longer. Agnetha, Björn, Benny and Anni-Frid (with many members of their family) become part of the group that goes on an expedition to another planet, in another galaxy... way out of our Solar System and they'll try to live there. The journey there won't be easy though and they will certainly encounter many problems along the way... Can they make it there safely? What will they see... what adventures will they encounter... Read to find out! Disclaimer: The story is pure fiction. There are some coincidental similarities, but otherwise people and events are all fictional. Hope you like the story. Love reading your comments. Thank you for reading. ❤️

Coyote by JaxonBlacc

Thousands of years after Earth became uninhabitable, humanity colonized other planets and moons around the solar system. Amid rising crime rate, the Galactic Space Force (GSF) set up a legal contract where registered bounty hunters (known as Coyotes) go after criminals and bring them in alive in return for credits. Wolf is one of the best coyotes in the GSF, but also one of the most hated. He has no care of the damage he causes to people or buildings when pursuing a bounty, leaving the GSF having to compensate those affected by his actions. When the daughter of a senator in The Kingdom becomes the most wanted terrorist in the solar system, the GSF is hired to find her before anyone else does. Willing to look past Wolf's reckless history, the director of the GSF contracts him and other coyotes to find the senator's daughter and take her to the GSF at whatever cost. But with enemies after the same woman, Wolf is forced to trust and rely on his new partners in hopes of getting the biggest payday of his life.

Firebomb (The Jewel Project #2) by Wimbug

"Why is it always 'why' with you? Grow up already! Not all people are alike. You're good, I'm evil, you're naïve, I know how things are, and you're an idiot while I'm brilliant." With the jungle and Snitch Gravel left behind, Sam Grant thought the crazier part of life was over and he could now focus on his secret agent training and getting to know his new brothers. Before he can even get used to safety and comfort, everything goes downhill: his father goes ballistic, his cousin disappears and him and his brothers are called in to rescue a fellow agent from Snitch Gravel's base. Aside from sending them to battle countless henchmen, the Agency is also keen to keep them in the dark about their most important project - a project Sam and his brothers play a vital part in. Once again on the road, Sam must figure out how to do something he's never done before: infiltrate Snitch Gravel's base stealthily and come out unscathed. *** The story is completed. Sequel to Too Young Even if it's the second book in a series, the story is pretty stand-alone-ish. There are many characters, but it's easy to get the gist of them.

Displaced by cloudsriser

Sure, there was her annoying co-worker Wicken Sanders, and a promotional visit from teen heartthrob Timber Hudson, to watch and keep her entertained. But who was she kidding? Working retail was lame no matter what happened. A terrorist attack changes everything - an attack from aliens of all things. The patrons are given two options: comply or else. Complying means giving in to a new set of rules and changing her entire life. "Or else" means she has no chance of going home again. She must figure out the truth behind why the aliens are holding everyone hostage. In doing so, she risks her chance at freedom - but by the time she learns what's really happening, she might not want it.

Dead Energy. The Alex Cave Series book 1. by jcorkman1

Oil supplies begin to mysteriously vanish without a trace and society starts to crumble, and the only clue is a dollar size crystal found in the empty hold of an oil tanker, in this science fiction techno-thriller. It all started when his wife was murdered during a mission, and Alex Cave quit the CIA for a less stressful life as a geophysics instructor at a small college town in Montana. At least, that was his plan. While on vacation sailing the waters of Puget Sound, geologist Alex sees a brilliant flash of light from an oil tanker and changes course to help. He discovers there was no explosion, no one on board, and the oil has mysteriously vanished without a trace. The bodies of the missing crew are found a hundred miles away in the snow on Mount Baker, but there are no footprints leading in or out of the area. Alex's only clue is a dollar-size blue crystal found in the hold of the empty oil tanker, which under a high-powered microscope, appears to be alive. The shortage of fuel causes mass panic, and Harold Wooley, a sniveling coward with a domineering wife, thinks he can save his family from a world-gone-mad by joining a radical civilian army, but as the group undergoes a drastic change in command, things get out of control when their new leader kills without compunction. Harold must dig deep inside his soul if he is to discover the courage to save his family from their living nightmare.
