JTN Complete

by Terry Roy

A jaded soldier. An eclectic dreamer. A neophyte Guardian thrown against an ancient and powerful foe. In the Balance, the life and death of a solar system...

This is the complete epic science fiction adventure in one volume, containing all three novels: Convergence, Gravity, and Stratagem.

CONTENTS

CONVERGENCE: Rett's known nothing but warfare since her seventeenth year. Now, with the long war at a critical turning point, she finds herself distracted by a dimwitted alien mindforce from some planet called Earth who thinks that Rett's daily brushes with death are part of a realistic dream. And just when she starts attempting to deal with the alien in her head, her platoon is assigned a technical advisor: a defected Enemy trooper who claims he is madly in love with her. Can Rett learn to cope, and keep her ego-merge a secret without losing her mind--and her life--in the process?

GRAVITY: Sergeant Rett is yet unaware of the motivating forces behind the long war in the Nyorfian system, much less her role as a Player in a game of gods. All she knows is that once she and F-troop arrive on Epnoce with the rest of the 2023rd, a harsh climate and heavier gravity are the least of her concerns. Pam is gone--just when she could use the support the most. Jaq wants a transfer. Ariam is acting evasive. Her longtime best friend Evetez seems to be doing all he could to get her in serious trouble--and succeeding brilliantly. All she needs now is a close encounter with an old nemisis from the past...

STRATAGEM: In the wake of the enemy's masterfully executed surprise attack on Aurora Base, Easy Force endures a perilous march through life-threatening storm. Sgt. "Killer" Rett can take on any physical challenge -- but can she survive close combat with an alien superbeing on the battleground of her own mind?

SPECIAL FEATURES: Two maps from the original hardcover (out of print), a reference section, and a "Deleted Scene"...a complete, extra short story titled "Just Another Ordinary Divert and Decoy", illustrating an incident referred to in both Convergence and Gravity.

About the author

Terry Roy has written fiction under the pen names Terran Moffat, Sharona Troy, and T.M. Roy, but has recently decided to ditch all those and sign off on her works with her everyday name. As a child, she'd run out of reading material quickly so, in-between trips to the library (which was fifteen miles away at the time), she'd read encyclopedias and non-fiction and just about anything else she got her hands on without her parents knowing. This practice evolved into writing her own stories or continuations of favorite stories, complete with illustrations.

Nowadays, Terry lives just north of St Paul, Minnesota, with her two parrots. She freelances as a book designer for pixel and print books when she isn't writing. On the side she has an extensive garden and enjoys canning and freezing the bounty. You might catch her selling her hot pepper jams (and a few books) at a local farmer's market.
