A Gathering of Forces

By Gary Yasumura

Judge, 28th Annual Writer's Digest Self-Published Book Awards. - "You've created an amazing story. I was immediately pulled into the fight to save Earth from the Malicons. ... I loved the character of Christie. She's tough and dedicated to following through on helping the human race survive. Your writing style is very fluid and exciting. You really know how to make scenes exciting with your use of active, crisp words that convey what you're describing beautifully."Technology on the alien spaceship Sendal accidentally transforms Christie Wilson into a reluctant superhero. Portia on the Sendal is an advanced artificial intelligence, the creation of technology quantum leaps beyond the Earth's. Portia becomes Christie's constant companion and watches over Christie during her perilous missions. When government agencies learn about Christie's near indestructability, they recruit her to hunt down criminals and terrorists. One man, Luke Warren, is the most wanted terrorist on Earth and Christie's nemesis and archenemy. As Christie pursues Warren, she discovers his ultimate purpose endangering all of humanity. He is an agent of the Malicons, an ancient race of thinking machines whose purpose for millions of years is to obliterate all organic life in the universe. Christie must voyage into outer space to find and fight Malicon battle fleets of 50 behemoth spaceships. Throughout her adventures and missteps, Christie relies on friends and forges powerful alliances. It's an epic story of friendship, love, danger and a struggle for survival in a hostile and uncaring universe.
