The true story of the System's great Peacemaker is nothing like the history books...

Nothing breaks up an argument quicker than a bear attack. Ergo, bears are great peacemakers. Blessed are the 🐻s.

A buccaneering adventure in space, it examines how Legends are made and how they only represent a 2-dimensional hero, one who inspires us, but who's 3rd dimension, the dark side if you will, is kept hidden.

Written during the cold war it explores the idea of a long standing conspiracy theory of a well-known, and once secret, project called "Project blue beam". ((Google this for more info.)) Supposedly this project, in a nutshell, worked on the idea that to unite the future mankind only an invader from space could accomplish this by providing a common enemy. Although in this story there is no alien invader, there are certainly "social outsiders" who accomplish just that.
