  1. We approached the Training Cruiser ANS Endeavor as Midshipman Thorp Comm’d for permission to land while he lined us up. I remained patient as I observed while he positioned himself on the ball. Making my decision and tapping the Comm link open. Arms stretched out forwards, taking the controls. “I have the Helm.” Startled, he looked over at me as he raised his hands as I felt his feet leave the peddles. “You have the Helm, Sa.” I nodded as I tapped the tab and spoke. “Endeavor Fl
  2. Station Hangar “Wojact.” “Yeah, Uroda?” “Try talking to him.” “Who?” Uroda’s head shook. “Who do you think? Alexander.” Just as we walked into the hangar bay behind Thorp. My mouth must have dropped open as she chuckled. Marc Alexander wouldn’t talk to me the way I would want him to. And there he was, looking under a shuttle. His Link chimed, and he stood looking around while he talked. Thorp slowed and Uroda moved along one side of him, and I stepped alongside her as we

    Correct! Dr. Maiju Sarrat, Mercedes Munoz, and the last unknown sender, who you can assume is the person in the gravchair, as written. That makes five. 1 or 2 more, depending on how you look at it as they are tied together even though they are mentioned separately in the prologue. But, specifically a clue is in chapter 1 that will point to the clue in the Prologue. Once found will bring into question the last undercurrent. Both can be either seen as separate or together. Hence the 1 or 2 more statement earlier.

    That's two. And?😇 Just to clarify. In the Prologue, Ch1 and Ch2. I don't think I was able to get ch3 in on time for an update today.

    Chapter 2

    Thanks for the comment! The characters and their lives where based, not only on real people, but different cultures in this world we live in. Things are a little different, but not far off from reality in my world.

    Thank you for the comments! Now I am curious. How many of my little surprises did you find in between the first three chapters? Val's father is one.

    Chapter 2

    Thank you for the comments! The fourth book was the actual beginning of my writing about Marc in this world. Then another idea came up and another. So, Marc grew younger instead of older. I guess you could say I'm writing from back to front as it was book 4, 3, 2 and then this one. And you are correct. As a standalone book, I probably should have dropped more tidbits on the family in the earlier chapters and will be looking at that, but I promise by the end you'll know them all. 😉
  10. Finishing up the last of my course work for the day, I headed out to the living area of my family’s quarters. “I heard you did well, Marc.” Said Dad. Pride clear in his voice. “Laura said you pulled a ninety-seven point eight on your second run through Track Seven-B.” Part statement. Part question. “Yeah.” I replied. Annoyed because I felt it was fine to run the turn as I did. “They dinged me for using the afterburners coming out of the last turn.” Dad nodded as I was sure he looked at

    Chapter 1

    Thanks for the comment! I had a lot of fun working out the details for the world this story takes place in. Using experiences from different locations and cultures I've seen to flesh out the characters themselves. It has made for interesting writing. Hope you enjoy the future chapters, which currently stands at 29 for this book.

    Prologue

    Thank you for the comment! This is just the beginning; 4 books are already written for this series. With back of the napkin plans for another possible five, either in this series or in this world.
  13. Follow the story of Marc Alexander of Alexander Industrials. Citizen of the Westward Confederation as he navigates a teenager's life hardships, family legends and corporation responsibilities, relationships, dangers and adventures. Legends and pirates be damned.
  14. Moira Sector Stanyear 4341 The shuttle weaved through the marked course as I was looking out the forward viewport, admiring the star-studded darkness. “Are you sure?” asked my cousin Laura. Upon my completion of inspecting the controls, a smile formed on my face as I adjusted them to match my personal preferences. One step closer to commanding a shuttle after I prove myself as a pilot through my upcoming Flight Exam. “Positive.” Carefully placing my hands on the controls a
  15. The screens showing the Link Cast News scrolled images from across the Confederation as different News Casters were commenting about various ongoing celebrations. Scenes changed as the Special Report logo phased into view. And a lone figure facing the screens smiled. “This is a Link Cast Special Report. I’m Mercedes Munoz from Link Cast Central in the Madegarin Sector. Today, throughout the Western Confederation, we celebrate Exodus Day. The day when the first colony ships left Sol System f
  16. I read this a while ago. Twice. It was what caused me to read a few of the Mercedes Lackey's Valdemar books. This story fits seamlessly into the world of Valdemar being a fantastic and believable FanFiction addition to that world and complements the lore. When is the next volume being written? Hint! Hint! We want more!
