thirty-first century. An old foe had resurfaced in an area of space no one had expected. An urgent call, transmitted four decades earlier, had finally been received from the ultra-distant Soo-Erthra Space. Its message sent alarm bells ringing within Terra Space Command Headquarters, as this event was taking place in the very backyard of the feared planet-destroying Ypsilanti Empire. Alerted to this new danger by the humanoid-denizen&#8217;s hosts of the first contact with a Confederation vessel in the circa 2400s, this new crew travels slowly to that same region to render assistance in the solving of the mystery of the resurgence of the Al Suhailli Dakkarosis. The protagonists are the twelve-member crew of the CSS\u00a0<em>Boulder City<\/em>, commanded by Wendy Rotenberg, dispatched from the Confederation colony of Orindani Prime to join forces with the feline-in-appearance humanoids known as The Dau of the Soo-Erthran planet of Lesbos. Their mission: To find the cause of this sudden Al Suhailli Dakkarosis&#8217; resurgence and eliminate it before it spread deeper into the Sagittarian Arm or the Orion Spur of the Milky Way Galaxy.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"exad-close-btn\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"exad-modal-overlay\" data-exad_overlay_click_close=\"yes\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fc35111 exad-sticky-section-no exad-glass-effect-no elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"fc35111\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h5 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Available at<\/h5>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8080fe5 elementor-align-center exad-sticky-section-no exad-glass-effect-no elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"8080fe5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-sm elementor-animation-grow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Tale-Four-Terran-Deep-Space-Missions\/dp\/1682358259\/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3U1CVSZZ99IPS&#038;keywords=9781682358252&#038;qid=1691260982&#038;sprefix=9781682358252%2Caps%2C295&#038;sr=8-1\" target=\"_blank\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">Amazon<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a26421b elementor-align-center exad-sticky-section-no exad-glass-effect-no elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"a26421b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-sm elementor-animation-grow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.waterstones.com\/book\/the-tale-of-four-terran-deep-space-missions\/gregory-a-pierson\/9781682358252\" target=\"_blank\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">Waterstones<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6165e28 elementor-align-center exad-sticky-section-no exad-glass-effect-no elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"6165e28\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-sm elementor-animation-grow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.barnesandnoble.com\/w\/the-tale-of-four-terran-deep-space-missions-gregory-a-pierson\/1143637008?ean=9781682358252\" target=\"_blank\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">barnes &amp;

It&#8217;s a tale of rising tensions and loyalties played out on a galactic stage on the Confederation colony of Danovia Prime in the Orion Section. Danovia&#8217;s colonists were shocked to witness the destruction of their moon Trinity by the Ypsilanti Empire, a relentless force trying to eradicate the Dakkarosi. Marsha Ames gave birth to Sedona while on duty during that attack. That massive, square silver object the Dakkarosi stole has been brought to Trinity by two Terran opportunists, transported to Terra, and then returned to the Ypsilanti Magi after a drawn-out negotiation process. However, the Ypsilans are still bent on eliminating the Dakkarosi. To that end, the Ypsilanti forces secretly established bases on Danovia as Sedona matures into a teenager. Her mother, Marsha, and her father, the late General Rick Cox, never married. They showered her with love until he died of heart failure when Sedona was a small child. Sedona was the only teenager left on the planet after the Confederation allowed relocation for those wishing it. But Sedona would not leave without her mother, and Marsha could not go because she is a contracted Confederation employee. What will happen to those remaining on the planet?
