DESCRIPTIONS

Disaster strikes the luxurious space liner, <i>Solar Princess</i>, and strands Gus on a deserted island on an uncharted planet. His only hope for survival is to partner with an alien Artificial Intelligence named <i>Alyssa</i>. She is the brain of the most improbable star ship Gus has ever seen, part ancient sailing ship, part incredible star-faring vessel. But there is a catch. <i>Alyssa’s</i> first priority is to finish an epic yacht race that started twenty-eight thousand years ago.<br /><br /><b> THE WORLD IS CAPTURED BY THE ALIEN DRAMA </b><br /><br />Every day Gus sends a video love letter to his wife via the lifeboat’s one-way subspace signal where it is automatically posted on YouTube. Few people care until another lifeboat crashes with two young women aboard, both of them celebrities. Their fame turns Gus into a worldwide phenomenon; everyone watches the three castaways fight to carve a life from the tiny island life even though they have little hope of rescue. When disaster threatens, Gus and the girls have no choice but to resurrect the crippled galleon. Their impossible task is to sail <i>Alyssa</i> across an alien sea and then fly her across unimaginable galactic reaches.<br /><br /><b>WHEN <i>ALYSSA</i> FINALLY AGREES TO HELP, SPACE PIRATES STRIKE</b><br /><br />On live television, the public watches helplessly when a ship of vicious murderers attack the three survivors. The world grieves when the now-famous exiles go silent. At least until Earth's Space Navy reports they are under attack by a ship that is beyond imagination.<br /><br />
