In the year 2420, expansion to other planets is the G.E.C's (Galactic Expansions Corps) specialty. Many ships have gone to and from planets, setting up colonies. One fateful day, the Aurora was one such vessel set for transport when an unknown energy pulse destroyed her communications relay as well as help rupture her nuclear power cores. She went down. Only one known survivor remained, Ajay Donn. He escaped into a life pod and was shot to safety. However, this isn't the end, but a new beginning. He now finds himself on an alien world, an entire planet of seemingly nothing but water. Equipped with only some gear in his pod, Ajay must survive the struggle of life on this new world, facing any trouble he may discover.

❖ Interstellar pilot and ex-adventurer Alex Gallegos must keep their team safe on an icy moon as sentient storms threaten to repeat the tragedy that ended their last career. ❖ Everyone in the United Inhabited Solar Systems (for some reason, UIS for short) knows to stay away from Mahaha. The icy moon is notorious for failed probe landings and research missions that end in tragedy: the only people to ever venture to its surface needed rescuing after just two weeks. When a prestigious research group decides they want a turn, they ask Alex Gallegos to lead the team. Perfectly qualified and haunted by their past, Alex accepts, hoping to make up for old mistakes and get just a little further from the earth they've left behind. Two months into the seven-month mission, the team is struggling with discontent, damaged equipment, and blizzards acting less and less like normal weather. As Mahaha moves out of range of help and the storms take on a more malicious character, Alex must face the one foe they could never have prepared for. Mahaha may or may not be alive. ❖❖❖ Complete. Wattys 2021 Shortlister. Standalone sequel (Rocks Can Dance) coming in 2023. Comments and critiques are both welcome and appreciated.
