Both Hands Full

0 comments
Both Hands Full has Tammas Garcia at odds with Star Fleet, the Klingon Empire, and the Gorn. He is recruited for a secret mission by Admiral Eric Pressman, who is engaged in illegal activities, such as conducting research on phase cloak technologies, to recover a stolen weapon system. The weapon is a modified Genesis device, capable of destroying a Borg infested planet, or a Borg ship, that has been stolen. Garcia is forced to maintain the secrecacy of his mission to avoid starting an interstellar war with the Klingons, becuase of Federation Klingon treaty banning research on the Genesis technology, and potential war with Romulan Empire for having access to cloaking technology. Garcia takes command of the first ship to have a Federation Klingon crew, and is pursued by Picard, the Gorn, and the Klingons.

Another Piece of the Action

0 comments
Another Piece of the Action not only resolves a story arch from book one, but revisits the Iotian people from the TOS episode “A Piece of the Action.” In that episode, Kirk unifies a people who have modeled their culture after 20th Century American Gangsters. McCoy accidentally leaves technology on the planet, and the episode ends with Kirk saying, “A hundred years from now, the Iotians might demand a piece of our action.” And a hundred years from Kirk is Captain Picard, who will find that Kirk’s solution of unifying the Gangsters into a one world government only made them stronger Gangsters, didn’t return them to a more peaceful way of living, and consequently, he has to rescue Garcia who is being held hostage on the Iotian planet. The sub plot deals with an alien race, known as the Preservers, who are conducting experiments on the Iotian population at large, making it appear as if Star Fleet is actually doing the experiments. They are responsible for relocating humans across the Galaxy, such as the Native Americans Kirk found on “Miramee’s” planet. They have been interfering with cultures, in the name of ‘preservation,’ and are instrumental in preserving McCoy from death.

A Touch of Greatness

The Kelvan (TOS episode, “By Any Other Name”) have returned to their original mission objective, conquer the Milky Way Galaxy and pave the way for their species to invade. It introduce the character Tammas Garcia, who is influenced not only by historical Star Fleet Legends, but by contemporary (TNG)Star Fleet heroes. It is basically a story of growing up Star Fleet, symbolically showing how Star Trek has influenced the lives of the fans. It covers a time span of twenty years and gives a different perspective to “events” and “histories” of people such as Troi, O’Brien, Picard, and McCoy.

The Path of Dreams

0 comments

AUTHOR: Eugene Woodbury
GENRE: Romance
WEBSITE: www.eugenewoodbury.com

The Path of Dreams is a romantic fantasy arising out of the traditional Japanese practice of the arranged marriage. The matchmakers in this case are an Osaka samurai academic and a Scottish Mormon polygamist. The union these two 19th century raconteurs plot for their great-great grandchildren is one their descendants never could have anticipated, for this o-miai exists only on “the path of dreams.”


Although they have never met before, a seemingly chance encounter leaves Elaine Chieko Packard and Connor McKenzie haunted by passionate dreams they cannot control. They determine to resolve the growing tension between the moral strictures of their religion and their own overpowering emotions by eloping, a decision that triggers an entirely unexpected series of events.

In the days and months that follow, they find themselves reliving–in dreams and reality–many of the same conflicts their parents and grandparents once did. They come to realize that their lives cannot move forward until they have attended to the unsettled obligations of the past. As the prophet Malachi commanded, they must “turn the hearts of the fathers to their children, and the hearts of the children to their fathers.”

by Deanna Miller

Hesper the Alula and her secret friend Tristan the Boytaur are forced to part sadly when Hesper is sent to the human plane to save the parallel planes of existence from possible destruction. A year later, as Hesper leads the life of a high school girl with no memory of her previous life, she meets a strangely familiar boy. Tristan has journeyed at great risk to find her, having learned a way to travel between the planes without losing his memory. They return to the Alula plane on a dangerous adventure to discover the real solution to the planes’ troubles–as Hesper struggles all the while with her fear and her tender feelings for the friend who should be her foe.

Winner of the 2004 Wilbur Award for Fiction, given by the Religion Communicators Council. For ages 10 and up. An uplifting fantasy in the tradition of Madeleine L’Engle and C.S. Lewis. Field nominated by reviewers for ALA’s Best Books for Young Adults, Michael L. Printz Award for Excellence in Young Adult Literature, Popular Paperbacks for Young Adults, and Quick Picks for Reluctant Young Readers.

“Fresh and new and is very readable. Once started, a reader finds it difficult to stop.”
- Jean E. Karl, who nominated Sky Bounce for the Pushcart Press Editors’ Book Award

“Remarkable philosophical and spiritual depth even as the story is just plain fun! The value placed on each plane’s uniqueness and emphasis on fitting in makes for strong social commentary for the discerning reader. Miller’s embracing of individuality and self-sacrifice makes for deep thinking . . . Sky Bounce comes very highly recommended.”
- Cindy Penn, Wordweaving, 2003
