Hi everyone! I'm halfway through a short prequel that'll introduce you to the main characters in the first Biogenesis War book, and hope to be able to get it to you very soon. The beta readers are LOVING book 1 in the series, and have some really great things to say about it, which makes me stress out about finishing book 2 (I'm writing as fast as I can — well, except for the occasional, wacky selfie....). About the selfie... A good friend of mine is a foodie. I mean, a huuuuge foodie. And she LOVES her coffee. She also happens to be the person behind the character of Shannon in the Enfield Genesis book series. And let me tell you, the real  Shannon is every bit as colorful, creative, energetic, and fun as the AI in the books—the one who goes on to run the Q-ship, the Avon Vale . So when Shannon (the human, not the AI) ordered all her friends to post a morning coffee selfie, all of Shannon's friends (of the human, not the AI) ran and grabbed their cam...

How does one sneak into a foreign nation and rescue the oppressed? Very carefully. Those who colonized the binary star system of Sirius pulled a bait-and-switch on their colonists. The Hegemony offered transportation, food, and shelter for those who could not afford it. In exchange, the new colonists agreed to work off the expense of their passage. But the Hegemony has no intention of setting them free. Hidden in the fine print Generations later, the Hegemony is still selling indentured servitude as a convenient fiction for slavery — and they have no intention of ever letting the Noctus go free.

Jason and the crew of the Avon Vale partner with an underground railroad to rescue the oppressed, in  Sirius , the fifth and final book in this story arc , available now on Amazon Kindle and Kindle Unlimited.

What the what?!? If you're a fan of the Big Heist, you might recognize the reference. If you're not, no worries; we've got your decoder ring right here. The subject line's from the movie, Ocean's Eleven . In one of the key scenes of the movie, George Clooney tries to sell Brad Pitt on a casino heist. When he asks Brad what he thinks it'll take to pull a job like that, Brad's famous rejoinder is: "off the top of my head, I'd say you're looking at a Boesky, a Jim Brown, a Miss Daisy, two Jethros and a Leon Spinks, not to mention the biggest Ella Fitzgerald ever." Okay, but what does this have to do with Aeon 14 and the next Enfield Genesis book? Turns out that Shannon's a big fan of old-Earth 2D vids, especially ones like Ocean's Eleven, Inside Man, A Fish Called Wanda, and The Usual Suspects. Good thing, too. Because all of her expertise with the con game will serve her well as she embarks on her first field miss...
