GRAND CLASSIC SCIENCE-FICTION SPACE ADVENTURE IN THE TRADITION OF ROBERT A. HEINLEIN STRANDED AND SURROUNDED --First In Bryan Smith's "Colonel Landry" Space Adventure Series. It is the 25th Century. The space cruiser Beagle, under the command of Colonel Kendrick Landry, explores a planet ravaged by war millennia ago, now inhabited by hostile savage humanoids. The Beagle is shot down and grounded by an ancient, mechanized planetary defense network created by an advanced civilization long pre-dating the humanoid savages. The humanoids abduct two women officers: the sexy and sultry Maya Terrazone and the bright but petulant Veronica Winters. Colonel Landry leads a rescue party to find and bring back the two women with the help of Veronica's pet telepathic alien tiger Jones. But if the women still live and Landry rescues them, can his group survive another crossing of the desert terrain--teeming with the savage humanoids--to return to the Beagle? The humanoids are going extinct because long-ago biological warfare killed all the females. Can the Beagle genetic scientists create females to distract the savage male humanoids and permit the crew to make repairs and escape? But even if the Beagle crew makes repairs and regains orbit around the planet, then the ancient planetary defense network may fire upon them a second--and likely fatal--final time. GOLDEN WRITING, MEMORABLE CHARACTERS A lean and flowing prose style. A well-crafted plot. Well-developed characters. The beautiful and temperamental Veronica Winters.The supremely sexual and tough while yet sensitive Maya Terrazone. Colonel Kendrick Landry is a supremely focused, capable, and yet vulnerable man. Still haunted by a near-death event of many years ago. The reader is drawn deep under his skin, and views the distant world of "Sigma Theta III" from his perspective as he struggles desperately to save his crew and himself from becoming hopelessly marooned and dying on the planet. The novel creates a stark vision of determined men and women fighting for survival against overwhelming odds. THE SCIENCE OF "FERAL PLANET" Much of the Sci-Fi space adventure of today makes only routine and passing reference to such concepts as faster-than-light space travel and the "beaming" of characters from one location to another. Concepts that were staples of the Golden Age Sci-Fi of the 1950's and 1960's and provided inspiration for much filmography including of course the famous "Star Trek" franchise. Golden Age Sci-Fi coined the term "astrogation" for navigation in space. Later sci-fi defaulted to the term "navigator" (e.g. Mr. Sulu in Star Trek). "Feral Planet" adopts the terms "astrogation" and "astrogator" in part as a tribute to the Sci-Fi Golden Age. "Feral Planet" gives particular attention to faster than light travel accomplished by way of "space warping" as written about in scientific journals by theoretical physicist Miguel Alcubierre. The novel provides detail as to how such processes might actually work. A RENAISSANCE OF SPACE OPERA "Feral Planet" harkens back to Science Fiction's Golden Age of such distinguished writers as Robert A. Heinlein, Poul Anderson, and H. Beam Piper. Yet the novel achieves its own fresh modern originality. Good Sci-Fi "Space Opera" has become a rarity today. But for lovers of the genre "Feral Planet" marks a fresh new resurgence of an old favorite. The novel is compelling modern Sci-Fi Space Opera at its best. "Feral Planet" will be a welcome relief for readers tired out of the contemporary vogue clich s of vampires, werewolves, dragons and princesses, galactic empires, and "star wars." FIRST OF A SERIES "Feral Planet" is the first in the Colonel Landry Space Adventure Series. Four other novels in the series are scheduled for release: --Dome of Slavery --Final Battle --In Search of Kronos --Amira, Warrior Queen of Cruciba

Lucy, a spirited French-Ojibwe orphan, is sent to the stormy waters of Lake Superior to live with a mysterious family of lighthouse-keepers--and, she hopes, to find the legendary necklace her father spent his life seeking... Selena Lucy Landry (named for a ship, as every sailor's child should be) has been frightened of the water ever since she lost her father at sea. But with no one else to care for her, she's sent to foster with the Martins--a large Anishinaabe family living on a lighthouse in the middle of stormy Lake Superior. The Martin family is big, hard-working, and close, and Lucy--who has always been a dreamer--struggles to fit in. Can she go one day without ruining the laundry or forgetting the sweeping? Will she ever be less afraid of the lake? Although life at the lighthouse isn't what Lucy hoped for, it is beautiful--ships come and go, waves pound the rocks--and it has one major advantage: It's near the site of a famous shipwreck, a shipwreck that went down with a treasure her father wanted more than anything. If Lucy can find that treasure--a priceless ruby necklace--won't it be like having Papa back again, just a little bit? But someone else is hunting for the treasure, too. And as the lighthouse company becomes increasingly skeptical that the Martins can juggle Lucy and their duties, Lucy and the Martin children will need to find the necklace quickly--or they may not have a home at all. The Luminous Life of Lucy Landry is a timelessly sweet tale of found family from rising Ojibwe voice Anna Rose Johnson, author of NPR Best Book of the Year The Star That Always Stays. Perfect for fans of L.M. Montgomery and Karina Yan Glaser "Lucy Landry is a charming and fanciful heroine reminiscent of Anne Shirley, who reminds us that even in dark times, we can be a light for others."--Alyssa Colman, author of Bank Street Best Book of the Year The Gilded Girl
