The Adventures of Gordon Rogers: Episode 2

By Ash Nom DePlume

What happens when a search engine picks a hero from the past to save the future?

The long-time enemy, the Wo, has always been a low-level threat, sufficient to keep the need for a strong Fleet and Empirical bureaucracy. Now it has developed into a severe threat. Projections are a loss of fifty to one hundred planets in the Central Kingdom borders of the Empire within the next twenty years.

Gordon Rogers, our heroic science teacher from the past, surviving cancer, and certain death. Now that he has the girl and Command of the Attack Fleet for the war with the Wo, how will he survive the bureaucrats and restrictions that threaten the Empire? Time for some outdated tech and little know-how.

The second of the series. A millennium from now the future Empire needs a hero. Search terms today get the wrong website, in the future, it is a person from the past. Meet Gordon Rogers a retiring chemistry teacher and veteran fresh from the hospice, relocated to the future, to save the Empire. Can high school chemistry save the day? If you like a good homage story and Flash Gordon and Buck Rogers you want this book.

"Gordon Rogers is one of the best action-filled, sci-fi adventures that I have ever read, and that is something coming from not only an avid reader of the genre but a Literature teacher to boot. Set two thousand years into the future, the Empire needs a hero and captain that can whip the fleet into shape, so they are ready for the real enemy, an intelligent race of space insects. They use technology to summon what they think is a combination of Buck Rogers and Flash Gordon rolled into one amazing man who just might save the Empire. The real man is a combat veteran who spent the last 40 years teaching Science mostly, and he just so happens to be a 70-year-old man who is dying of cancer in a VA-funded nursing home. Can we get this man a rescue? Not a problem for the future and their technology to make Rogers into the hero that Captain America's Steve Rogers wishes he could be. Filled with plenty of puns, teacher/dad jokes, and coffee references to keep you laughing along the way. They wanted to save the Empire well, Rogers does just that with a common sense and understanding that must have been lost over the years. Strap in and take the ride with Gordon Rogers." M. Richards
