I was born in Canada and remember as a small boy crawling in my snow-fort. I closed my eyes, and when I tried to open them, they were frozen shut. I didn't panic, but wiped away the ice crystals, unglued my eyes and kept on building my tunnel. Those were great days! I moved to Central California before seventh grade and couldn't believe I lived in a land where oranges grew on trees and you could pick grapes from the vine.
I used to wonder what I wanted to do with my life, what kind of work specifically. I was miserable not knowing and bordering on desperate. Then one day a friend gave me his typewriter. I began working on a novel. A different person told me it was much easier on a computer, so I bought one and began getting up at 4:30 A.M. each morning before work, writing for three hours. My eyes were unglued once again as the pang of misery left my gut. I knew exactly what I wanted to do: write. So now that's what I do, I write, and write, and write, and I love it.

Good Read
Maddox and his close crew and friends are shocked by a massive shack up of Star Watch while identifying serious threats from possibly two separate aggressive alien nations. Things aren’t going well. Star Watch wants to ground Maddox and take VICTORY away from him. Anything he does now will result in losing his career, ship and end up in prison. Decision time!

Lost Starship Succeeds!
Captain Maddox may just be the best character ever written about in Sci-fi history! Series book 21 verifies this time and time again. His genios, intellect, and his luck may be the key to Earth’s ability to survive the many dangers waiting ahead! I heartedly recommend this great series to ‘everyone’ who enjoys fantastic quality Sci-fi!

Action packed story
A very good installment in the serious. Plenty of action. Really liked the introduction of some new characters and the return of Becker and the spacers. Can't wait for the next one.

Excellent
This continues to be up to standard and addictive as I feel the main characters are old friends. This is why I am compelled to read the next book to rejoin my friends.
