Chronos Anthology — Tom Ciolli

This book contains five novellas: Gulag Moon, Chronos, Chronos Prophecies, Battle for Chronos, and Zombies of Chronos. An additional short story, Vampires of the Ramora Moons is also included. The book centers on the planet Chronos which is the site of a human telepath colony controlled by an alien race which has selectively bred humans for a thousand years to use them in a prophesied war between civilizations. Since travel to Chronos takes twelve years and navigation through two worm holes, the laws of Earth have little effect and organized crime syndicates rule with an iron fist. Zach Murphy is the most powerful telepath in the known universe and he leads a group of mercenaries called the Wolverines in an uphill battle to remove the syndicates from power.
