About the authors

Because she's a lover of many genres, her books include paranormal romance, fantasy romance, and paranormal cozy mystery. She blames this on being easily distracted by bright, shiny objects, which could also account for the size of her shoe collection. The Land of Enchantment cast its spell on her while she was researching her Djinn Wars series, and she now makes her home in New Mexico.

C. Gockel has been writing stories for her friends and family since the dark ages (i.e., before word processors existed.) A few years ago, she started posting those stories to the intertubes. She received emails, messages, and reviews from her fans telling her she should 'do this professionally.' She didn't; she is a coward and life as a digital designer, copywriter and coder is more dependable. But in the end, her husband's nagging wore her down: "You could be the next '50 Shades of Gray' and I could retire!" Unfortunately, the author writes science fiction and fantasy, and isn't particularly good at writing erotica. She is sad about this; she'd love for her husband to be able to retire and just work for her so she could nag him.
At the moment, Ms. Gockel is working on the next installment of the Archangel Project.
Ms. Gockel loves to hear from readers. She can be reached by email at: cgockel.publishing@gmail.com

Born in Kent, UK, Pippa's published books have featured in--- "Wait a second. Let's cut to the chase. I write kick-a$$ urban fantasy novels with conflicted characters, breathless action, and no-holds-barred dialogue. My books may not leave you feeling all fluffy and warm inside, but they will excite you. There will be plot-wists, there will be angst, probably a few dead bodies, and very likely your favorite character will turn out to be the bad guy. Don't say I didn't want you..."
Pippa's family moved to the South West of England where she grew up amongst the dramatic moorland and sweeping coastlands of Devon & Cornwall. With a family history brimming with intrigue, complete with Romani angst on one side and Jewish survivors on another, she has the ability to draw from a patchwork of ancestry and use it as the inspiration for her writing. Happily married and the Mother of two little girls, she resides on the Devon & Cornwall border.

DL Dunbar (writing fantasy as Debra Dunbar) grew up reading sci-fi and watching Logan’s Run, Battlestar Galactica, Alien, and Blade Runner. As a kid, she and her friends would act out Star Trek episodes in the basement where Captain Jennifer T Kirk saved the day (sorry William Shatner). She lives in a little house in the woods, and every now and then slaps on a Kansas vinyl LP, stares up at the night sky, and wonders what’s out there.

A number of short stories will written by various authors. Each story is part of a series. Each story is different with interesting well developed characters lots of action and misdirection leading to each conclusion. As with multiple story books 📚 some of them you will like better than others but that is normal and personal. I would highly recommend this novel and various authors to readers of fantasy space opera adventure novels 👍🔰. 2023 👒😀😡😮
I have listened 🎶 to a number of the authors individually, series, and in box 📦sets. Happy reading 📚 and have fun 🌙😀.
I am still working on cleaning up ☝ the 2k+ stories on my kindle fire 🔥. Have a great week.
Troublesome is a general ignorance of the difference between the past tense and a past participle (shrank not shrunk, sank not sunk). Add the lack of understanding of “to lay” and “to lie” (transitive versus intransitive) and the grammatical naïveté becomes clearer. Other irritations abound.
Even more annoying are the spelling errors which are not typos. People fasten their hands with grips like sin (vice) rather than a tool (vise). “Affect” and “effect” seem interchangeable in both noun and verb forms.
Pronoun case (objective versus subjective) seems arcane knowledge for several writers, who produce, for example, “for he and I” instead of “for him and me.”
And punctuation rules are apparently mysterious, particularly comma usage (e.g., an embedded appositive phrase must be bound by commas; the name of a person being addressed in a direct quote must be set off by a comma). Quotation marks, hyphenation, colons, semicolons, em dashes versus hyphens, etc., are often used erroneously.
And all those dangling participial phrases…oy.
All these glitches disrupt the reader experience by preventing continued immersion in the story being told. Most of the stories in this anthology are compelling, yet marred by technical faults as small as one letter that changes word meaning or a missing comma.
Future respect and responsibility to the reader will, I hope, be more manifest.
After reading "A Tale of Two Ships" I bought "Destiny's Song.
After reading "Carl Sagan's Hunt for Intelligent Life in the Universe" again, I decided to read "Starship Waking", since I've already read "Archangel Down", and I was reminded what a good story-teller C. Gockel is.
"Blood Ties" is apparently a prequel to "Blood Will Tell". It's a kind of dark, sad story about a young programmer stuck on a backwoods planet with dreams of getting out.
"Passage Out" is a Victoria Eternal story, a steampunk tale about a young girl longing for the stars but finding her skills are of more use on the earth.
"Arcturus 5" featured three groups of aliens: arbitrators, disreputable finders-keepers scavengers and complainants of piracy by the scavengers. The outcome of the investigation was surprising.
"Treason's Course", as one can guess from the title, is about misplaced trust and loyalties.
"Falling" explores the relationship between a for-hire criminal on the lam and a hot-shot pilot running contraband in competition with the mob. He's hired to kill her to collect his bounty, but the best laid plans go oft awry.
“Starfall Station" takes place between Books 2 and 3 of the Fallen Empire series. Leonidas and Alisa have an adventure that brings them closer to understanding each other.
"Luminescence" has researchers in a remote station on Titan dealing with a medical emergency far from base. Back at the base, it turns the medical emergency was triggered by a massive information transfer that has disrupted the base electronics and created a genius.
"Glome" tracks the first manned trip through a cosmic phenomenon called a glome. The crew and colonists get a big surprise in a message recorded on Earth to be played on their arrival. They, along with the other 11 colonizing vessels, hold the future of Mankind.
"Unfinished" by Kendra C. Highley is a fascinating story of two genetically engineered humans, a boy and a girl, who find that their being engineered doesn't mean they cannot feel human emotions strongly, including anger and hatred as well as love.
