The Works of Helen E Davis
.
Four hundred years after the ecological destruction of Earth, mankind is exploiting the stars. Cyclone Pharmaceuticals plunders ecosystems across the galaxy in search of wealth. On one planet, eight-limbed natives study humans for revenge, while on another planet researchers race to save the ecosystem. Beneath a nova sun, the remnant of a race prays for rescue while elsewhere a golden paradise is condemned to development. The Silent Runners, a plucky band of ecoterrorists led by the beautiful, charismatic Golden Antareas, rise up against Cyclone—leaving their own trail of destruction. But in the wreckage, hope and new beginnings take root and grow. Hardcopy and Kindle versions available at Amazon.
Almost eighteen, Dutch knows everything. He knows that he’s going to be a Freespacer, and the Freespacer life is far better, far more exciting, than anything he left behind on his home planet. He knows that he will have far more freedom than his religion-bound step-father ever allowed him.
And he knows that he wants nothing, ever, to do with his biological father.
Dutch knows it all — almost. It’s what he doesn’t know about Freespacer life that might kill him--or worse.
