THE FIRST TEENAGERS IN OUTER SPACE WILL BE EXTRAORDINARY. In the year 2063, exploration of Mars moons Phobos and Deimos was developed to a level comparable to that of the Earth's moon. Although there were eleven billion mouths to feed on Earth, mining and agricultural development in the space colonies ensured that mankind would never have to go hungry. But who would be in charge? Funded by greedy developers, the Mars development on Moon Phobos threatened to dwarf the production on the much smaller Earth Moon Colony and, therefore make it obsolete. Carmen was determined to have her revenge, as she sat in command of the Mars space station orbiting Mars Moon Phobos, Carmen would stop at nothing. Ten years earlier, Carmen had been an impulsive eight year old student at the Dream Caster Institute on the space station orbiting the Earth's moon. She had been expelled from study there, for abusing her powers. Angry about her older sister Marisol's suicide some years before, Carmen grew to blame the Institute for her sister's mental illness that led to her death and was bitter about her own expulsion. Carmen had the skills and the intellect to follow in her sister's footsteps as the beacon child at the Institute, yet, she never fit in because of her bad temperament and her extraordinary abilities. She came from Colombia South America, to study at the Institute, and unlike her peers, she already had mastered advanced dream sequencing abilities. While other students acquired these skills as well as a sense of appreciation and patience, humility and tolerance, Carmen missed the importance of undergoing this process. Carmen became a bad influence on Maximilian Herman who was just six years old at the time. He was identified, because of his advanced dream sequencing skills and was the Institute's rising star. Short of corrupting Max, Carmen caught the wrath of the adults in charge of the Institute known as the Controllers and was quickly expelled. She went away; but her abilities did not. Ten years later, she was placed in a position of power at the rival Mars mining and agricultural development. Carmen had the skills of the Earth Moon Controllers and gained considerable wealth, but she was full of animosity. Maximilian Herman was the only human being that could stand in her way.
