About this ebook
Renton (Rance) Quigley He’ was ordinary only in the sense that he had dreams. Two, in fact. Both of which he was failing at.
When a sudden attack on their colony planet turns his life upside down, Rance must figure out who’s behind it before they destroy his homeworld.
The alien ship that appears over his house offers a clue, and Rance cannot resist their invitation. But he should have thought it through. The aliens are happy to meet him, but the Imperial military isn’t.
Soon he and his four friends are thrust into a conspiracy that threatens to destroy the galaxy-spanning Empire. But what they discover puts them at odds with the conspirators and it puts their lives in jeopardy. Can they take down the conspiracy before it took them out? Will their new alien friends help? And will the Emperor listen to a single word they say?
Unlikely. No one would believe five post-teens could save an Empire.
This fast-paced YA space adventure on helium is for fans of Firefly’s verbal snark, the hijinks of Scooby Doo, and the action of Guardians of the Galaxy.
About the author
Marc B. DeGeorge has made every attempt in his adult life to maintain a balance between how much science and how much art he dabbles in. Sometimes, he’s even successful. When he was young, he wanted to be an astronaut, and then an aeronautical engineer—he even went to Space Camp! But then he learned how to play guitar and his space dreams took a back seat. He spent a decade playing professionally in bands and studying music in college (university only took five years). These days, things have come round full circle, and Marc envisions the future by writing books that imagine what challenges humanity may face, and what we might accomplish together.
When Marc isn’t writing, he performs traditional Japanese music on shamisen and writes, shoots and edits performing arts photos and video—check out some of his work here: https://www.musemarc.com
