Trope-free science fiction! If you're looking for traditional sci-fi full of stupid, predictable video game plots, boring engineering dialogue, armed space scientists, or autocratic space armies aiming to enslave the universe, sorry, this ain't it! Welcome to the Aligned Worlds, innovative, progressive, pansexual science fiction for Gen Z and beyond. You've never met characters like these or been to worlds like theirs. Climb aboard via Books 1, 2, or 3. You won't regret the ride!
After her people have spent 5600 years in space, a young woman is tasked with vetting a planet that might finally be a home for the thousands of people on her GenShip.Mya Landric has lived all of her life aboard the Rebibe, a generation ship that launched 5600 years earlier from a dying planet Earth. Everything aboard the Rebibe is tightly regimented via color-coded bars-status, career aptitude, even whom you date or marry. Mya is stuck in the ship's middle status layer, unnoticed by anyone and unhappy about it. Now, however, the captain and the ship's Artificial Intelligence, CAMLO, have tasked her with the most important job of her life: investigating a planet that might, finally, be a home.
There's just one nagging problem. Mya and her small group of friends are beginning to believe that perhaps their own Captain Bligh has no intention of letting them land there, and Mya most definitely does not wish to be the Rebibe's Fletcher Christian. Emotional, hopeful, and enthralling, this future fiction epic is the first novel in a series of epic adventures in the Aligned Worlds(TM) universe.
Stay tuned for space-time travel, pointless wars, love, sex, and rock and roll, all on planets you'll have to read about to believe. It's going to be a wild ride, and Year 5601 takes you there with a roaring start.
