About Across the Floors of Silent Seas: A Short Story (Till Human Voices Wake Us Book 1):
Do mermaids believe in humans?
While working on a deep-sea diving assignment at the University of California, oceanography student Jay Bishop is dragged into a volcanic tube towards the earth’s core and certain death.
But much to his surprise, Jay not only survives the fall, he finds himself taken prisoner by a community of mermaids and kept alive as a science experiment. Confused and disoriented, Jay’s only hope to escape back to the surface is found in Paga, an elder of the community who believes Jay’s unexpected arrival marks the fulfillment of a terrifying prophecy.
With the community rising against them, Jay and Paga face dangerous choices — and their consequences — if Jay is ever to see home again. Will Jay make it back to the world on the surface? And even if he does, how can his life be the same ever again?
FROM THE BOOK:
“Are the others boring you to death, that you’re listening so intently to my remarks, darling?” Jay asked, teasing even though he welcomed her churlish chatter.
“People confuse boredom for stability, and stability for sanity,” she muttered.
Jay laughed. “Well, I’m sure some people would never assume we had a solid grip on sanity before we decided to become oceanographers. With several metric tons of water pressure surrounding us at these depths, I’m sure someone would be quick to question our mental facilities and their working order.”
“True enough, brother mine.” Noelani paused, and Jay knew she was likely rolling her pretty eyes. “And yours especially, since your sanity was barely there to begin with.”
FROM THE AUTHOR:
Enjoy this short story adventure tale set before Till Human Voices Wake Us, a science fantasy novel with an unlikable protagonist, sadistic mermaids, and the trip of a lifetime.

Data Nexus Unraveling the Web of Secrets
About Data Nexus Unraveling the Web of Secrets:
Sloan’s goals were simple.
Raise her status and stay alive.
Now, she’s going to lose everything.
Freedom was a word Sloan had heard echo throughout Technohaven’s districts. However, it was an idea that most of the city’s citizens couldn’t comprehend. Between manipulative automatons and limited digital currency, there was no room for growth—for life.
With no other choice, sisters Sloan and Maya Delaney had to cheat their way into the upper district—a place of opportunity and, most of all, hope.
Hidden within the city’s elite borders, they were safe. Their past would remain in the past so long as they didn’t slip up. Didn’t take more than they were given. Accepted the regime’s word as law.
And it worked… until Maya disappeared.
Sloan’s position as a quantum data sleuth allowed her to track her sister’s last-recorded movements, but hacking into the city’s system wasn’t an easy feat. From within the nano-controlled walls of the police department, probing cameras and questionable allies saw her every move and heard her every whisper.
Sloan was about to lose her composure, when a group of rebels revealed themselves, saving her from discovery.
Working with the Guardians was the last thing Sloan wanted. It risked the life that she’d painstakingly built.
But how could she refuse, when disobeying the regime was the only way to save her sister?
With droids stalking Sloan’s every step, rebellion blooming across Technohaven, an attractive golem disrupting her emotions, and rogues questioning her intentions, the data sleuth searched for answers.
But, in a world of hidden codes, answers only lead to more questions…

Two millennia have passed since the discovery of Vanobi (the first exoplanet inhabited by a civilization of extraterrestrial sapiens) and two hundred years since the discovery of Estyr (the second). Millions of superluminal probes have explored Galaxia Nostrum (new name for the Milky Way) in the vain search for other human civilizations.

When humanity is ready for great expansion in the Andromeda galaxy, the appearance of the alsiers will disrupt imperial expansionist plans. What is the true identity of the alsiers? Why are they so determined to erase all traces of humanity from the universe? The Imperial Grand Council is convinced that the attack by that powerful new enemy is linked to the mystery of pre-astralis civilizations. The nectunt mission has the task of investigating the ancestralis, the ancient sapiens people who sowed the seed of the human race. Will thirteen men be able to acquire the knowledge to turn the tide of war? The Ω-Imperium, the most advanced starship in the Imperial fleet, is departing.

Still Falling
Barcus is a working stiff looking for a good paycheck. When the Ventura and its crew enter orbit for a scheduled planet survey, the ship activates an automated defense system protecting the planet. Although the Ventura is destroyed in the attack, Barcus alone survives the harrowing fall to the remote planet surface. He struggles to remain alive and sane, and to discover why everyone he knew and loved on the Ventura was deliberately murdered.
Swinging between despair and fury, Barcus discovers that for every answer he obtains, there are more questions raised. Barcus is assisted by the Emergency Module, Em, his most useful tool. It is an Artificial Intelligence system contained in an all-terrain vehicle specifically designed to help him survive. Barcus soon finds himself in the middle of a planetary genocide of the local native population. He is unable to stand passively by as more people die, even if they are long lost colonists who fear “The Man From Earth” like children fear the monster under their bed.
Will Barcus ever find his way home? Will he find out who is responsible? Will his rage just burn this world down? Or will he find his soul in the eyes of a starving, frightened woman?
