This short account documents Joseph’s tour in India in the closing days of World War Two, based on his diaries and letters to his wife Mary, the account is augmented with some of the stories he loved to tell us. This is not a tale of high adventure, nor an intricate analysis of the battles and politics in WWII. It is the diary and missive of an ordinary man being plucked from his home and wife at the tender age of 23 to be deployed in a country which was completely alien to him. There are three phases of the story, shock and bewilderment at the living conditions he faced, learning to ...

The colonists get a cold welcome upon arrival in Mariner Valley and soon discover that the many organizations that planned their mission hadn't communicated well on specifics. Worse, the ground crew waiting for them are a collection of angry, tired survivors of ill planning, and their new home is a dirty cave.

Romo awakens on the Mars colony ship to find it in trouble. He doesn’t know what makes him different from the other Robo-Nauts, but he knows that his new life is in danger. PACE, an evil Earth-based organization, will stop at nothing to prevent the colonists from reaching Mars alive, and his presence may be their only hope of survival.

Everything in New Braintree was efficient, comfortable, and convenient, but tightly controlled by PACE, a technology provider with dark ambitions of global dominance. And their proposed justice robot, MAX, is more of a politician than a judge, and lacks even simulated ethics. Railas, now fully operational, is the only alternative. He cannot be intimidated or bribed, and he was created to work against tyranny. His team has high hopes to restore justice and defeat PACE. But while Railas and his team investigate MAX and his motives, he finds something worse.

There, Sally and Ian uncover a chilling reality. Something terrible has happened on New Ontario.

Sally's life on Earth becomes boring when she turns to politics, but not for long. As UN space commissioner, Sally finds herself presiding over the aftermath of Earth's first colonial war. Baltan City, Earth's greatest achievement, tries to declare independence, which creates a violent and polarizing conflict. In the midst of this new cold war, an Earth ship from the future is entering the system and appears to be approaching Baltan. Sally and Ian must call a truce with the colonists long enough to investigate. The ill-fated mission launched 20 years after the day Sally Buds sets foot on ...

Sally Buds had scarcely arrived on Earth before she is called back into service. She is, of course, Earth’s only real expert on the evil Masters on New Ontario, but now there may be trouble coming from this side of the fold! A Japanese ship representing the Asian Economic Alliance is now heading towards the fold and UN Command fears that they may be trying to forge an alliance with the Masters. This time Sally’s crew includes a battalion of soldiers armed with deadly weapons. But, as before, the mission turns out to be different than expected. Trapped and a realm that makes no logical ...

There’s trouble on CMC-6 and it’s been brewing for a long time. The golden age of space travel and asteroid mining has ended almost before it began and the bean counters have taken over. Sally Buds’ patients are all suffering from low-gravity syndrome because the Canadian Mining Consortium won’t spring for gravity generators and the miners won’t exercise. On top of this the station might be facing hard times. An expensive mining robot disappeared while surveying a region of space known and KEL-30 or “Kelthy.” The problem was not in replacing the robot, but rather in the fact that...
