The Tar

by Nicholas David Evans

Zacharia Tobias has retired from The United Western Navy. This might be considered ‘just cause’ for a celebration, but visiting Daisy’s Bar after consuming such a large amount of alcohol, proved not to be one of Zack’s best ideas.
Zack does not normally ‘play well with others’, but despite his cynical view of the human race, he finds that some aspects of it, are worth fighting for.
Spartax, a large corporate organisation has infiltrated the Central Bureau of Intelligence; they want control over a sentient alien artefact that Penn Millen and her father re- discovered on their home world. This is not going to happen, not if Penn and her friends can help it.
Zack did not willingly choose to fight, but he is not a man to provoke.
Sailing to the stars, this is just the beginning!

About the author

I was born in Rotherham, Yorkshire but moved to Dorking, Surrey at an early age. Completed a formal apprentiship in Engineering, then moved to New Jersey, USA where I lived for several years. Later I returned to the UK and lived in Devon and then in Fuerteventura with my wife Sonya and lots of dogs (she worked for a dog rescue charity), I am now living in Clermont Ferrand central France. I have a passion for science and technology, I try to not only 'think outside the box' but 'live' there as well. To me, cynicism is an admirable personality trait. I am and will remain, young of heart and mind, and am an incurable romantic. Life's a garden 'dig it'!
