Centauri Wars
“Centauri Wars” is a spell-binding science-fiction adventure novel about our near future involving alien conflicts among Earth's society and our neighbors in outer space, the Alpha Centauri civilization and a technologically advanced culture within the Hyades star system, about 150 light-years away, known as the Kaelono. All are vying for resources that permit faster-than-light travel to give them dominance over our sector of the Milky Way Galaxy. One such resource, Psylobe, has been found uniquely in the Alpha Centauri system, and permits certain alien-human Hybrids to distort spacetime, allowing hyperlight travel through quantum hyperspace.
The age-old nemesis of the Centaurians, the Kaelono, whose Anunnaki ancestors also plundered the Solar System, are again threatening the Centauri culture whose battles have been chronicled in ancient Hindu and Sumerian texts. Now the human race has joined the war over resources in the Centauri system, and rights to exploit valuable minerals within our own Solar System as well.
However, the indigenous population on Alpha Centauri has their own ideas about how their resources should be utilized and has planned a counter-attack. Among their teleporting Hybrids, Valdar and his sister, Nari, have emerged as champions of the Centauri race and its Psylobe that allows them to tap into the vast powers of the Dark Energy. Together with a fighting priestess, Ashera, they are challenging both the ominous threat from the Kaelono’s deadly space armada as well as Earth’s attempts to stake a claim on the Psylobe within the Alpha Centauri system.
Alpha Centaurians’ Psylobe holds the key to harnessing the almost limitless Dark Energy reservoirs. And both Terran and Malthakosan governments are willing to wage a brutal war to gain control over this power. The fate of interstellar civilizations for the next 10,000 years hangs in the balance, while our Solar System has been caught in the middle of this deadly power struggle among mighty alien cultures. And who will take riches hidden in our Asteroid Belt?
“Doc” Cormier, has drawn from his years of experience as a physician, writer and former NASA engineer to craft this fast-paced science-fiction adventure in the spirit of Asimov, Clark, Heinlein and Herbert. Educated at MIT, he has worked with numerous cutting-edge technologies, and has woven the latest advancements in vacuum energy, zero-point energy propulsion and nanotechnology into a spell-binding tale combining the best in hard science-fiction with plenty of adventure and drama.
For the first time anywhere, “Centauri Wars” introduces the powerful forces of Dark Energy to form the basis for the "Corcas-drive" technology that may ultimately propel us to the stars. By contrast, atomic energy is as meager as a candle flame when compared to the colossal powers locked within the zero-point energy, and the mysterious Dark Energy. If you liked “Avatar”, “Star Wars” and “Star Trek”, or just the thrill of tightly-woven science-fiction with lots of action and thrills that will keep you on the edge of your seat, then you’ll love “Centauri Wars”.
So if you’re tired of hearing about the “Economy” and the “Energy Crisis”, get some E-ticket fun and excitement instead and take the “Centauri Wars” challenge: settle back, fasten your space-harness, and hang on for a spine-tingling ride, in the best tradition of science fiction, on this wild journey into our near-future and that of our interstellar neighbors, as you travel through time and hyperspace. And don't miss these exciting “Centauri Wars” sequels coming soon --- “The Secret Weapon” and “Treasure of the Asteroid Pirates”.
