Angular Trifecta

Free sample

When the Space Force went to war with the Slorgs, it caused more than military fatalities.  The faction of the Humans suffered a divisional rift along ideological lines that caused a group of separatists to realize their pacifist vision by seceding away from the megapower in order to form Galaxy Bloc.  Located deep within the Quadron System, their upstart vulnerability is seen by the enemies of Humanity as an exploitable weakness.  So sets the stage for the events on the planet Dio Qze and enters its respective trinity of players: Enderbrook Boyd - an Enforcer using black ops to try and lure the assemblage of unincorporated planets back into the Space Force fold.  Janette Ueberrhein - a botanist whose purpose is to avert a mortgage crisis having little to do with the economic arbitrage opportunities of the greedy and everything to do with the bioterrorist acts of the shady.  Burdlit Giz - the operational general, a reptilian (in appearance) Carriveaua who offers kind and timely assistance to the fledgling faction.  But why do these three really do what they do?  Because everybody has an angle to play.  This is the answer to the question but not necessarily the question which should be asked - that being the angle.  Because the stakes are so high.  A no-brainer of sorts, time would be much better spent in attempting to prevent the lengths at which an adversary would go to achieve them.  Because two (perceived) wrongs do not make a right.  But three do make it interesting.  Just because.  Angular Trifecta - three people, three agendas, three objectives - one stage, one opportunity, one chance.

About the author

I'd written a trio of micro-stories in mid-2011 - one for each of three different characters, that allowed me to tell their individual perspectives surrounding the same sequence of events.  Revisited months later, it became the pilot for a serialized Angular Trifecta which ran weekly over the course of a year from 2011 through 2012.  This release is its 52-chapter compilation.  With creative bandwidth being functionally limited, random projects rarely see the green light of day.  But when universe-building, it's often this randomness that lends additional breadth to the effort - a convincing argument for the enormity of its potential.

Domina #2: Blood Can Be Revoked
Edmund Alexander Sims
Buffalo Grove. The city happens to be under new protectorship, and that is the perfect time to test its latest champion's mettle during the transition. Only, universal conflict tends to be unconcerned with such things and unimpressed by local quarrels. But home court does normally present an advantage for the host, and Denah Tress will need all of it when she returns to crime-fighting form as her alter ego - the real-life superheroine, Domina. Every much the technical envisioning of nanite theory and cerebral telling of a BDSM tale (without the physical eroticism) from the first story, Domina #2: Blood Can Be Revoked addresses the worthiness of the woman who was handpicked to replace a Crimson Red Belt as Buffalo Grove's - and by extension, Earth's protector.
The Fallen
Book 4
The closer Amos Decker comes to the truth, the deadlier it gets in #1 New York Times bestselling author David Baldacci's latest Memory Man thriller.

Something sinister is going on in Baronville. The rust belt town has seen four bizarre murders in the space of two weeks. Cryptic clues left at the scenes--obscure bible verses, odd symbols--have the police stumped.

Amos Decker and his FBI colleague Alex Jamison are in Baronville visiting Alex's sister and her family. It's a bleak place: a former mill and mining town with a crumbling economy and rampant opioid addiction. Decker has only been there a few hours when he stumbles on a horrific double murder scene.

Then the next killing hits sickeningly close to home. And with the lives of people he cares about suddenly hanging in the balance, Decker begins to realize that the recent string of deaths may be only one small piece of a much larger scheme--with consequences that will reach far beyond Baronville.

Decker, with his singular talents, may be the only one who can crack this bizarre case. Only this time--when one mistake could cost him everything--Decker finds that his previously infallible memory may not be so trustworthy after all...

"Decker is one of the most unusual detectives any novelist has dreamed up." --Washington Post
SpaceStation Colt: Damnitio Exeum
Edmund Alexander Sims
SpaceStation Colt: Damnitio Exeum is the first novel of the True Love Trilogy - a genre-crossing story line that could pass as much for action and romance as it does its noticeably pointed focus in modern science fiction. Getting things started within the SpaceStation Colt series, this first book introduces the characters, the Epic Universe, and some initial interstellar conflict to gently acclimate a reader to the new experience. Major Marileva Dike stars in this story which finds the Space Force having its grip on the universe. For the most part, it had been a benevolent rule, but some would claim malevolent intentions exist. Yes, that was this universe. However, other factions rule their own universes with equally dominant hands. War between competing factions is normally inevitable, but some previously no-name/unseen factions were using the war as a means of achieving additional gains not fully understood. The Major responds in kind by increasing her own physical and political power all the while solidifying her base of influence with a legendary three-dimensional strategy that makes for an intriguing eBook with universal implications.
Origin: A Novel
Dan Brown
The #1 New York Times Bestseller (October 2017) from the author of The Da Vinci Code.
 
Bilbao, Spain
 
Robert Langdon, Harvard professor of symbology and religious iconology, arrives at the ultramodern Guggenheim Museum Bilbao to attend a major announcement—the unveiling of a discovery that “will change the face of science forever.” The evening’s host is Edmond Kirsch, a forty-year-old billionaire and futurist whose dazzling high-tech inventions and audacious predictions have made him a renowned global figure. Kirsch, who was one of Langdon’s first students at Harvard two decades earlier, is about to reveal an astonishing breakthrough . . . one that will answer two of the fundamental questions of human existence.
     As the event begins, Langdon and several hundred guests find themselves captivated by an utterly original presentation, which Langdon realizes will be far more controversial than he ever imagined. But the meticulously orchestrated evening suddenly erupts into chaos, and Kirsch’s precious discovery teeters on the brink of being lost forever. Reeling and facing an imminent threat, Langdon is forced into a desperate bid to escape Bilbao. With him is Ambra Vidal, the elegant museum director who worked with Kirsch to stage the provocative event. Together they flee to Barcelona on a perilous quest to locate a cryptic password that will unlock Kirsch’s secret.
     Navigating the dark corridors of hidden history and extreme religion, Langdon and Vidal must evade a tormented enemy whose all-knowing power seems to emanate from Spain’s Royal Palace itself . . . and who will stop at nothing to silence Edmond Kirsch. On a trail marked by modern art and enigmatic symbols, Langdon and Vidal uncover clues that ultimately bring them face-to-face with Kirsch’s shocking discovery . . . and the breathtaking truth that has long eluded us.
 
Origin is stunningly inventive—Dan Brown's most brilliant and entertaining novel to date.
Constructs of a Maniacal Mind
Edmund Alexander Sims
The process of creation varies from writer to editor to musician to producer and everywhere in between. A lot goes on during and into any given project, and a great many creative people spend some of the best parts of their lives honing a myriad of different skills and techniques to help them advance their particular genre of note. Here Edmund Alexander Sims (the author of the SpaceStation Colt series) provides behind the scenes tidbits on his creative process via 140-character, stream of consciousness rants. If it can help with inspiring somebody to follow through on their art piece or it just gives a person a clever diversion because they happened to have reread the previous sentence (and its magnitude) as part of a double take, then these Constructs did the trick allotted to them.

The Enforcers: Freedom to Wield Will
Edmund Alexander Sims
I've grown so much since the last time. Hi all - this is Sheol. Some of you may know me as a major character from this novel. Others of you may know of me as a result of vicious lies which have been spread around about me allegedly extorting the publisher of this book. In fact, I'll be talking with the creative director of Dope Enterprises about that press release and those status updates with the #help hashtag in short order. Anyway I've taken it upon myself to rename this entire series and have since retroactively included that first Criticality novel and this second novel as a part of my new True Hate Trilogy. I know - I know: This is supposed to be Acro's series, but your protagonist chooses to hide like a scared child instead of facing me like an adult. And that's fine. People will die. That's fine. Eventually your 'hero' will grow tired of using the rest of you as shields - that or, he'll run out of them. I certainly won't tire of taking you or anybody else in my way out until I get to him. Unless there's controversy, stupidity, or tragedy, people don't seem to want to get behind it, and I don't have a budget, so yes I guess it's going to be all of the above. Dope Enterprises Disclaimer: Dope Enterprises does not condone or endorse the hurtful tone and violent rhetoric from this description. The views expressed here are those of Sheol alone.

From the Depths of Death in the Midst of Chaos
Edmund Alexander Sims
From the Depths of Death in the Midst of Chaos is the second novel of the True Love Trilogy - a genre-crossing story line that could pass as much for action and romance as it does its noticeably pointed focus in modern science fiction. Continuing things within the SpaceStation Colt series, this second book takes a startling detour for the darkest concerning an interstellar conflict which spans not only the Epic Universe (2009 - ) but its defunct literary predecessor Zero Universe (1987 - 1994) forever linking the two together. Lieutenant Marileva Dike-Sims returns to sort through the events introduced in her own universe while navigating the events left unfinished from a universe she never even knew existed. This eBook is one of those rare literary works that is so self-aware it becomes a mastery in every sense of its allotted genres by deeply honoring the characters and lending much-deserved closure to the old while propelling the current into their own new, expansive light credibly. Something To Root For: The intrigue of pro- and antagonistic characters makes them both thoroughly enjoyable; the amount and level of social commentary is staggering; the fiction part of this sequel happens to be almost three times the size of its predecessor while the science part includes stepped up technology to match; and the eloquence of the prose is matched only by the complexity of the story.
