The Mars Decision
A First Contact Story
The Mars Decision
Two Destinations - One Choice
This novella launches the “Odyssey's Journeys” series with The Mars Decision and introduces some of the main characters for the planned four-book series.
Humanity’s first mission to Mars is a major step toward colonizing the planet.
Instead, it became the moment everything changed. Halfway to the Red Planet, the crew of the Odyssey discovers a damaged alien spaceship drifting silently through the solar system.
The crew faces a decision: investigate the mystery ship or continue the Mars mission.
One choice - two destinations.
The choice they make, unknowingly, may have repercussions for Earth’s future.

First Contact Has Put Earth In Jeopardy
First contact has been made — and Earth now stands on the brink of annihilation. The Verya has left a trail from their escape from the Vorrak-controlled region, and although it is faint, the Vorrak are following it straight to Earth.
With only months to prepare, humanity launches a frantic race against time to build its first space defense force under the reluctant command of Captain Thren Toranki. Former geologist Sophia Chin shows another side when she tries her hand at peacemaking, while a growing rebellion seeks the aid of the Humans against the Vorrak Empire.
Can Earth fight a warlike race that has already destroyed or subjected 30 worlds?
The Captain of the Verya and members of the Odyssey join forces in an effort to prepare Earth for that potential invasion.
Earth launches a desperate effort to build a war fleet from scratch. Will they have enough time?
