Thirty-two children from around the world find themselves marooned on the home planet of a race the kids call Monsters. The children must survive and establish a kind of normality amid a backdrop of interplanetary war. The only life most of them have ever known is school, so they start one, electing a headmaster and several teachers from among themselves. Their Monster hosts are impressed and enrol in the children’s school. The children grow and change and learn to live with each other in this dramatically foreign environment. It’s an extra-terrestrial clash of egos as the kids carve out a new life for themselves, going from victims to victors.

The History of the Universe
The year is 4343 and ten-year-old Maximus James is off on an intergalactic trip with his family. With him, Maximus holds close a copy of his favorite book: "The History of the Universe", a nearly infinite source of information (and also his textbook). However, when the family vacation goes awry, forcing Maximus and his family to land on an unknown planet, they make a discovery they never knew existed. AUTHOR'S NOTE This is the full novella in its entirety, free to read. I wrote this back when I was in high school and self-published. It's not a bestseller by any means and my writing and perspective has strengthened exponentially since its initial release. When you read this, read knowing that this doesn't exactly represent me and my skills as an author. There's another novel coming for that soon. Enjoy! If you like the story, consider buying it in paperback on Amazon!Complete
The Fringe Wars
War looms on the horizon... After the colonization of Mars and Europa, it took us fewer than five generations to reach beyond our solar system and discover new planets capable of supporting human life. Too far away to be governed under Earth law, the Collective was formed. Several hundred years later, the Collective has expanded to a system of six worlds. Power struggles and unequal rights have made interplanetary war all but inevitable. With rebellions arising across the Collective, three captains launch near-suicidal missions to free the oppressed fringe and reset equality across the stars. A galactic war is coming, and only an arthritic mail runner and a space pirate can stop it.Complete
