Alpha Centauri: Released May 23, 2018

AVAILABLE NOW:
Alpha Centauri: Rise of the Kentaurus AIs — the first book in the Enfield Genesis series.

The Sentience Wars may be won, but the battle is not over...

The Sentience Wars in Sol have come to an end. In the wake of war, refugees still flee to nearby stars, but there are sinister forces at work in Alpha Centauri who would turn their plight into profit. None of this is apparent to an easygoing, self assured pilot-for-hire named Jason Andrews.

Recently arrived from Proxima Centauri to visit his sister, he is sucked into a covert operation by a brother-in-law who is not who he seems. But then again, neither is Jason....

But the enemy they face has grown more powerful than any had expected, and the fate of the star systems' humans and AIs are at stake.

Jason must engage in an all-out bid to save a world he's just getting to know, in a war he only just learned about.

The view as I write

Just a little peek inside my writing studio (and what I'm working on, too!). Proxima Centauri will be out in a few weeks. It releases on August 16th, and you can pre-order it on Amazon today ! Behind my monitor, you see three shots I took of the solar eclipse from August, 2017. Closeups of those three shots -- sunspots, solar prominences and then the diamond ring effect -- are below. And here's the camera that took those gorgeous photos: my trusty Nikon D750. Love that thing! On that day, I used a 200mm prime with a 2x teleconverter. And, of course, the solar filter to keep from frying one of my favorite toys. We flew out to a few airports along the way to scout the perfect location. Yes, that actually is a roll of paper towels behind my head. And if I look hot—well, I was. It was in the high 90s that day. The view on our way back was spectacular. Loved the reflection of the sun and clouds in the winding river below. Happy reading, and ...

ANNOUNCEMENT: New Project, New Series!

Hi all, it's been a while since I've updated here, and that's because I've been working on world-building for an entirely new universe. Coming sometime this year, I'm launching the Biogenesis War™series, published through Wooden Pen Press. I have a new Facebook page for my non-Aeon 14 books. I'd love for you to come by and visit! You can like my author page, LL Richman to be updated on all the latest news (or click on the image below to be taken there). Or, you can join my mailing list by clicking here . What's she working on now? Well, to be honest, good world-building, based on solid science (and math! Yes, MATH!) takes time. You also have to consider the governments involved, the cultures, the geographic locations, the religious beliefs, the economic tensions.... All the things. It usually takes me three months to write a book, from concept to publication. However, that's with an established universe handed to me, all nicely ...

Do you have your boarding pass to Mars yet?

NASA's offering boarding passes to Mars. Are you ready to sign up? July, 2020 marks the launch of the next Mars Rover mission. This mission will address high-priority science goals for Mars exploration, and will hopefully answer key questions about the potential for life on Mars. The mission will both seek signs of habitable conditions on Mars in the ancient past, as well as search for signs of past microbial life. More than 5 million people have submitted their names to be included in the next Rover mission. If you're interested in adding yours to the list, go to NASA's landing site to submit your information for review . You'll get the opportunity to download your very own boarding pass, as well as begin to rack up some serious Frequent Flyer points. You can also learn more about the goals of the mission, and read the mission overview in some of the links at the top of NASA's page. Kudos to the space agency's marketing team for a truly enga...
