About this ebook

Seeking Sirius, #1 of the Crystal Ceres Time Travel books 

2001 Space Odyssey meets the metaphysics of Interstellar 

240 pages

Alexa Jane Alden is about to claim her happily-ever-after. But before she can complete plans for her wedding on a Bahamas beach, she is hijacked—to a thousand years forward in time and a planet far, far away. 

There is a way back from the future, but only if Alexa can locate a specific mystical Master of Masters. The challenge is finding a master of the universe who keeps his location unknown, and has a habit of vanishing into thin air at will—maybe for forever.

While searching for her way home, Alexa realizes the package entrusted to her care is attracting dangerous attention. The very key for accomplishing her heart’s desire is also one that an ancient murderous computer—with minions desperate to do its bidding—is willing to maim and kill to possess. 

A suspenseful SciFi adventure, woven with metaphysical secrets, Seeking Sirius is all about self-trust, in the midst of chaos.

Interview with the Author: 

Q - Why seeking Sirius? 

A – After consulting with the world-class astronomy department at the University of Texas in Austin (where I studied astronomy as an undergraduate student) I chose the star Sirius because it is 8.6 light years away from Earth and is in the right direction for Alexa to show up on Adalans. Only later did I discover that many cultures through time have considered that star special in metaphysical terms.

Q - How did a certain robot in this story become so advanced?

A - The robot’s creator in the early twenty-first century included instructions for it to continue improving his/its programming and its physical appearance.

Q – In what order should I read the books? 

A – The series does follow a logical thread because the protagonist is on a quest, but each story turns on its own plot. Here’s the sequence: 

Seeking Sirius

Jaguar Transit 

A third novel is in progress, to complete the story

Q - So, why should readers give these books a try? 

A – Seeking Sirius and Jaguar Transit (book #2) are a mix of Science Fiction, Time Travel and Metaphysical genres, with a little romance thrown in. There’s also suspense, as well as action and adventure, to keep you on the edge.

Ratings and reviews

I felt a part of this book from beginning. Quite a few times I was there alongside your characters. I thoroughly enjoyed your novel. Towards the end I actually grabbed my tablet to see if the pilgrimage was actually a real event. Much surprise and an hour later, I now have a smile on my face and in my heart. Also, a new yoga practice to follow. Thank you for entering my world. Susan Morgan

It is hard to follow. The writing style is jumbled and confusing. It almost feel as if it has been written in a hurry or my an inexperienced person. Not sure if I'll be following the saga.

Was a thoroughly enjoyable book. I was nicely sucked into it. I wish I could read the series but authors have to make money so they can afford books which give them ideas for more books so they can keep giving us sweets for the mind like this.

About the author

Laure Reminick loves writing and reading science fiction. She also delights in investigating all those pesky profound questions: how to save the universe, what’s reincarnation really about anyway, how to become enlightened, and where is the perfect dark chocolate?

Her husband and their princess Pomeranian—named Penelope—happily live on the prairie in the U.S. Midwest, though yearn for all those yummy restaurants in New York City. Laure had a grand time in that fine metropolis as a financial journalist. And now utterly enjoys making things up.

She’s also always on the lookout for real magic: knowing what’s about to happen, changing a trend from inevitable to a choice, feeling bliss from nothing. Having been a TM teacher for a good long time, Laure has also come to deeply appreciate the magic of silence—as well, those quirky writerly thoughts that bubble up during meditation.
