LIGHT YEARS OF FEAR
(Science fiction/Thriller)
All angles of man's first-ever voyage to Mars are being examined
with as much attention to detail as our most brilliant minds can conceive.
That is, all angles except one.
Humanity's first voyage to Mars is interrupted a fraction of the way there as the ship unexpectedly accelerates to the speed of light then vanishes. NASA, the President and everyone on Earth with access to a radio or television set is left to wonder why. A year later, they are still wondering. When finally the answer comes, it brings with it, not only shock and uncertainty, but a new definition of humanity.
“Yesterday we were three superbly trained astronauts, confident that we could shepherd an experimental spacecraft 135 million miles across the vacuum of space. Today we are helpless victims of a fate whose cause we have little hope of understanding.”
Eliot Manning, MD, Mission Specialist-Mars Voyager Icarus is keeping a diary, even as he has little expectation that it will ever be read. The spaceship he rides is out of control and heading for the stars.

THE DELINQUENT ALIEN
(Science fiction/Thriller)
An interstellar love affair, a playful sci-fi.
The Delinquent Alien unites believable science with sex, an engaging story, and splashes of humor.
A rebellious young alien transmits herself to newly-discovered Earth to prove she is capable of interplanetary exploration. Able to assume any form for which she has DNA, she gathers two samples, a canine and a beautiful young woman. She elects the canine form, thinking this will allow her to move more easily among Earth's creatures.
Unaware that Earth bodies require rest, she becomes exhausted and falls asleep. But her canine form is that of a female in heat, and she is rudely awakened by a male in the process of taking advantage. Two months later, she gives birth to three hybrid puppies.
A young man discovers what he assumes are strays and takes them in, naïvely unaware that it will change his life forever.
