For the first time, the adventures of Team 9, the Allied worlds and their battles against the supernatural menace known as Apaht are available in one book, Alliance Eternal. It begins with The Legend of Team 9, which tells the story of the Alliance, a vast and far flung collection of worlds brought together by the Allen field, a living energy source connecting all sentient beings. With the field come an equally vast array of abilities, including effortless travel between worlds, a form of telepathy and near immortality. The field is the bedrock of the Alliance; however, the Allies are shaken to their very core as they and their elite group of explorers, Team 9, make a startling discovery: Th...
Spanning over fifty years, Away (Volume 1: Beginnings) is the story of a government science project whose consequences reverberate through the lives of everyone it touches. Stumbling on a breakthrough that could lead to the instantaneous transportation of people, medicines, food, energy and even information across the globe, quantum physicist Alberto Rys begins a quest to develop the technology to its full potential. He's eventually joined by a team of equally brilliant and idiosyncratic souls drawn to the discovery's nearly limitless promise. As the years progress, they're met with both devastating failure and exhilarating success. However, just as they near their greatest accomplishment, they find themselves suddenly entangled in a web of greed and deceit that ultimately sends Alberto Rys... away.
The Legend of Team 9 is a science fiction book in the Away series that chronicles the continuing adventures of quantum physicist Dr. Jeremy Marshall. Centuries after joining an ancient interplanetary alliance, and battling its one-time nemesis, the Grell Domain, Earth is at peace. However, that idyll isn't to last. Soon the Earth finds itself facing an unprecedented crisis involving the Allen field, a power source critical to the Alliance. To safeguard the field, Dr. Marshall joins forces with the legendary group of explorers known as Team 9. Together they journey to the storm-wracked world of Mjulnor, where they learn of Apaht, a supernatural being of pure malice. Dr. Marshall and his friends scramble to protect the field even as Apaht plunges the Alliance into a twilight of violence and chaos from which it may never emerge. If they succeed, it will be a feat worthy of legend... a feat worthy of the legend of Team 9.
Keepers of the Alliance follows the continuing adventures of quantum physicist Alberto Rys as he becomes embroiled in an interplanetary conflict that was ancient even before mankind was born. After uncovering a web of treachery that threatens the lives of his research team and the small California desert community of Pueblo, Dr. Rys and his son, Pedro, embark on a mission to save their friends and the town. In the process, they’re sent to Onav, a planet unlike any other and home to the spirits of an ancient alliance that holds the key to humanity’s past and its future. They soon learn of the Grell, a race of predators whose power surpasses that of even the Allies’ and are asked to make a choice. Will Earth join their struggle against the Grell Domain?

For the first time ever, the complete Away saga (Volume 1: Beginnings and Volume 2: Keepers of the Alliance) is now available in one book. Spanning over fifty years, Away chronicles the adventures of quantum physicist Alberto Rys. Stumbling upon a scientific breakthrough that could revolutionize the transportation of people, resources, goods and even information around the globe, Dr. Rys begins a quest to realize the discovery's full potential. He's eventually joined by a group of equally brilliant and idiosyncratic souls, who help him to rapidly develop the technology. However, as they near their goal, they find themselves suddenly entangled in a web of deceit that shatters their team and inadvertently brings Dr. Rys to the faraway world of Onav. There he encounters the ghostly remnants of a once mighty interstellar alliance and learns of the invincible race of predators who almost destroyed it, the Grell. Dr. Rys is then asked to make a choice that will reverberate throughout humanity: Will Earth join the struggle against the Grell or will the disembodied spirits of Onav forever be all that remains of the Alliance?
Tales of Section Zero is the fourth story in the Away series, and takes place after the events of The Legend of Team 9. Over a century after defeating the supernatural menace known as Apaht, the Alliance discovers to its dismay that there are still vast regions of space bereft of a critical energy source known as the Allen field. The interplanetary union dispatches Richard Redding and Kate Minon to investigate. Their destination is a remote science installation called Discovery 11, which is located on a world near the center of the anomaly. Once there, they prepare to meet an operative from an enigmatic intelligence unit known as Section Zero. His name is Paul Hewitt; and like Kate and Richard, he's an immortal. Soon, they discover that the key to unlocking the mystery surrounding the Allen field doesn't lie within Discovery 11's data banks. Instead, it lies somewhere in Paul's distant past, somewhere within the tales of Section Zero.
