Space Mission

Today, the Space Race is widely viewed poignantly and fondly as a race to the Moon that culminated with Apollo 11 “winning” the race for the United States. In fact, it encompassed a much broader range of competition between the Soviet Union and the United States that affected everything from military technology to successfully launching satellites that could land on Mars or orbit other planets in the Solar System.

Fans of morally gray heroes and slick talking conmen will love this series.

Cedric has discovered the means to fight back, but the price is high. Not all species are capable of carrying out his methods.

But her mission goes to hell when her clock malfunctions, freezing her countdown with just two minutes to go.

Her life gets even more complicated when she meets Michael Sorenson, the real Lia's childhood best friend.

Wizard Scouts are the elite recon forces of the Intergalactic Empire. Equipped with advanced technology gear combined with psionic-like abilities, they are the greatest fighting force the galaxy has ever seen. For reasons beyond his ken, Wizard Scout Richard Shepard is unwillingly sent to the magic dimension 150,000 years in the past by a mysterious entity known only as "the One". This is a time before the elves on the planet Portalis knew magic. It is a time when Portalis is being invaded by aliens equipped with starships, fighter aircraft, drones, and heavy armor.

In fact, it encompassed a much broader range of competition between the Soviet Union and the United States that affected everything from military technology to successfully launching satellites that could land on Mars or orbit other planets in the Solar System. The notion that America “won” the Space Race at the end of the 1960s overlooks just how competitive the Space Race actually was in launching people into orbit.

What sacrifices are Esper and Tanny willing to make to reshape the galaxy into a better place, and who will be asked to pay the price?

Leaving an apprentice unsupervised has never been a good idea. With Esper neglecting her duties as magical teacher, Tiffany takes her education into her own hands. Struggling with self-esteem and credibility with the universe, she resorts to trying a magical performance-enhancing drug. Of course, Esper has problems of her own.
