Galactic Pioneers — Katryn Ali

This is actually 5 short stories that all run into each other more like a novel with chapters. If you like Star Wars, and Star Trek type stuff, this is also out there type space-ship hopping, planets and their monsters, weird dimensions all rolled up into one. If that is your thing then read on: In Story One you will meet a young woman eager to serve Captain Cameron on board his Aries star-ship, but an unexpected chain of events begins that sends her on the journey of her life. In Story Two and you will find her trapped in an alternate universe where nothing is as it seems. In Story Three is about a planet where the crew of the Aries get stuck on a planet with a very hostile environment. You won't believe what happens next. In Story Four Captain Cameron and his crew end up answering a distress call but it's all fake. A way to lure them to the planet's surface where they wake up with no memories of who they are. And the last story is about an android named Dejaunt and his evil twin brother, Z'leel. Both made by the same mad scientist, Doctor Yanning Sohfos. Something happens to Z'leel after Dejaunt is hot on his trail that begins a metamorphosis, and both of them will never be the same as one of them faces mortality as a human! Oh, and an undecided Angel is the key that unlocks all of this. NOTE: The character Zartharyos in this story can also be found in another book of Ali's called: PIRATE'S TREASURE, available now too.
