"Never stray from the given path..." From the mind of Jeff Walker, author of such books as The Long Lost War, The Massive Planet (The Adventures of Deep Contact), and The Mysterious World of Professor Darkk and Miss Shadow, comes a science fiction/fantasy set against classic fables and fairytales. A young, yet brash, female spaceship commander is sent on a vital mission for the Galactic Kingdom; the ruling body of a vast interplanetary alliance that maintains peace and justice throughout their controlled area of space. The Council Of The Kingdom instructs her to rendezvous with a group of alien couriers. They possess vital information about an unknown threat targeting worlds beyond the Kingdom's border. The Commander takes her ship, The Goldilocks, along with Grimm, her artificial computer companion, and sets out on an adventure that could lead into the very heart of danger. This is the completed four-part collection of Jeff Walker's thrilling space-fantasy adventure-Outer Red! "Such a creative retelling of Goldilocks and the Three Bears and Little Red Riding Hood!" - Donna Bacshall, Goodreads "Enjoyable Reimagining of Fairytale Characters" - Laura, Amazon Review
