About the Book

Star Drive is discovered, among other things.
But why is most of the star ship's crew, on the first mission to the stars, given only a day's training before being thrust into interstellar space?

Why is one of the crew, Rodger Stone, always falling asleep after every exploring excursion?

Why does Rodger's ESP readings go off the measuring scale when he and the remaining explorer crew are rescued from the Procyon System?

Can Rodger single-handedly stop World War Five from destroying the Earth, over what nation or group of nations should control the Ebony's future interstellar flights?

And in the aftermath of the war, what has happened to Rodger? And what does it mean for the future, not only of Mankind, but of all life in the Universe?

These and other questions are all posed and answered during the telling of the story.


About the Author

I am something of an eccentric recluse, more by habit than by inclination.
I grew up in Ballinger, Texas, a small town in West Central Texas, near Abilene and San Angelo. I graduated Salutatorian of my Ballinger High School Class of 1969. I received a Bachelor of Arts degree in Physics with a minor in Math, and an equivalent minor in Chemistry, from Austin College, in Sherman Texas, in 1973.

I have lived in the local San Antonio, Texas area for most of my adult life.

I am currently disabled, but I occupy myself by playing with electronic gadgets, by taking continuing education courses at a local junior college, and by reading, writing, and drawing.
