From the author of the series The Book of M and The Sons of Thunder come two more stories that will put your imagination to the test.

The first is a story about an entertainer who lived in a time when the best shows were on stage. Follow his life up to its very end…. But is it really his life or someone else's? You will have to listen to find out.

Next is the story of the first manned space exploration. However, it is not by choice. The world as everyone knows it has been shut down. The military cannot operate without their equipment, which is all run by computers. Cell phones are of no use, neither are laptops, nor even the new automobiles of the day. Someone has completely wiped out our way of life. So what can be done?

The Future project was a spacecraft designed for one purpose: to live and explore the furthest reaches of space. However, recent events have completely changed the mission. Now, time is running out and an army of unknown origin has invaded America. They wear no known uniforms. They do not speak - or even communicate. They simply destroy any- and everything they come in contact with. The Future spacecraft is held up, waiting on the president of the United States to board and try to preserve some of our nation's government until something can be done about the intruders.

On their way to The Future spacecraft, the president of the United States is rescued from certain death by a team of soldiers training in the desert and led by Sargent Richard Kind, a tough, no-nonsense marine. His life was turned upside down when the first invasion took place, so now he trains men and woman to fight this unknown threat.

Aboard The Future, those heading for space, including the president and Sargent Kind, discover there is more to the attack than anyone was willing to believe.

Now the war continues thousands of miles from where it first began, just beyond our own atmosphere.
