Survive!
Marooned on Planet Tau Ceti g
Book One of the Survive! Series
In the twenty-third century, Earth's scientists finally unlock the secret of faster than light travel, and humankind begins journeying to the stars.
Unfortunately, the travel comes with perilous risks. While exploring the galaxy and looking for habitable worlds for human colonization, the United Earth Space Force exploratory ship, Copernicus, is destroyed by an encounter with an unexpected meteor storm as it orbits a newly discovered planet twelve light years from Earth. Of the more than one hundred scientists and crew members aboard, only a few escape to the surface of Planet Tau Ceti g—one being Chris Elliott, a thirty-six-year-old xenobiologist who now must struggle to help himself and the other survivors to stay alive on an unfriendly, alien world.
With dwindling resources and no communication with Earth to coordinate a rescue, the group is forced to battle hostile elements and creatures never before seen by humans. Now only time will tell if any of them will live long enough to see a rescue.

First Alien Contact
Book Two of the Survive! Series
Twelve light-years from Earth, Lieutenant Commander Valory Jeanne is alone in the astrophysics lab when an unexpected meteor storm strikes the United Earth Space Force ship Copernicus. After just four orbits around a newly discovered planet in the Tau Ceti star system, the ship is destroyed. Now stranded onboard without any means of escaping to the planet below, the Ph.D. astrophysicist must struggle against insurmountable odds to stay alive on a dead spaceship.
Relying on ingenuity, perseverance, and hard-won knowledge, lone survivor Valory finally manages to revive the ship's state-of-the-art equipment and devises a method of sending a communication to Earth. As the faster-than-light message speeds through the universe, she knows it is her last hope of rescue before the ship enters the atmosphere and crashes in a shallow sea. Unfortunately, Earth is not the only recipient of her message. As rescuers Chris Elliott and Caitlyn Carver race to the crash site in a problem-plagued newly commissioned spaceship, hostile aliens circle the crashed Copernicus, transforming Valory's predicament from bad to worse.
