In 1947, a peaceful day at home for talented negotiator Ryan Wilcox is rudely interrupted by a phone call from the president. With the help of General Jones and Malcolm Dow, he’s to arrange an interplanetary alliance. It’s an opportunity that Earth can’t afford to miss. But as with any friendship, the beginning stages require a delicate approach. And there’s one issue of “delicacy” that threatens to turn their partnership into an outright war. Will Ryan the wordsmith rise to the challenge and find common ground? Or is it the end of life as we know it?

When Private Malcolm Dow went to clean up a crashed weather balloon, he came face-to-face with an alien instead. Being an alien of sorts in his own otherwise all-white regiment, Malcolm instantly took on the Alien’s plight - military help for his besieged planet, Zalma.

The trouble is, he’s not the only one who knows they’re here.

Scientists have long attempted to understand Earth’s past, and in service to that effort, they have divided the world’s history into eons, eras, periods, epochs, and ages. For example, the current eon is called the Phanerozoic Eon, which means “visible life”. This is the eon in which multicellular life has evolved and thrived. Before this, life was microscopic (single cells).

From the earliest days as thinking humans we have had many questions about life. We have had fewer acceptable answers.
