"...they looked down to find coiled beneath them the obsidian trail leading to Apaht's home system. Its shape resembled the number 9." The Legend of Team 9 is a science fiction book in the Away series that chronicles the continuing adventures of quantum physicist Dr. Jeremy Marshall. Centuries after joining an ancient interplanetary alliance, and battling its one-time nemesis, the Grell Domain, Earth is at peace. However, that idyll isn't to last. Soon the Earth finds itself facing an unprecedented crisis involving the Allen field, a power source critical to the Alliance. To safeguard the field, Dr. Marshall joins forces with the legendary group of explorers known as Team 9. Together they journey to the storm-wracked world of Mjulnor, where they learn of Apaht, a supernatural being of pure malice. Dr. Marshall and his friends scramble to protect the field even as Apaht plunges the Alliance into a twilight of violence and chaos from which it may never emerge. If they succeed, it will be a feat worthy of legend... a feat worthy of the legend of Team 9.

Set before the events in "Away Vol 1: Beginnings", "Sevanport" tells the story of the Kindred, a group of people blessed with amazing abilities. Although they live among us, their haven is Sevanport, an otherworldly city whose existence is intertwined with the Pacific Northwest region of Seattle, Vancouver and Portland. Through the ages, they've used their gifts to help mankind; and their latest undertaking is their most crucial yet: To ensure the awakening of similar abilities across all of humanity. To do so, however, they must solve the mystery of Lightfoot, an enigmatic being with the power to single-handedly destroy the Kindred and their haven.

"Sevanport Remembered" is Norman Oro's 2018 follow-up to his 2016 science-fiction novel, "Sevanport". After years of service, Rainier "Scout" Kedlut is now enjoying his retirement in Seattle. Once, he was a tracker for Sevanport, an otherworldly haven that's home to the Kindred, a branch of humanity gifted with unusual abilities. As a tracker, he protected Kindred and non-Kindred all over the globe. However, when his own gifts begin to fail him, he starts to question not only his place in the world, but the very nature of reality itself. For Scout, nothing, not even his own identity, is as it seems; and a seemingly far removed war from the ancient past over the fate of mankind is only a moment away. "Sevanport Remembered" is Norman Oro's sixth science-fiction book.
