Plasma Rain

by F. Allen Farnham, Cadre One Publishing LLC (Editor)

No longer a captive, Shondre has won the trust of her Colonist hosts, and she leads the first delegation for peace since the killing began nearly twelve hundred years ago. If not for the Counselor’s incessant petitions to General O’Kai for release, she would have died, famished and alone. Now, there is a real chance to heal the rift and cleanse both peoples of their ancient crimes.

O’Kai’s attention is fixed elsewhere. To cover the Europa’s escape from Cadre One, he has committed to an all-out assault of Humanity’s lost home world, Earth. Success means wiping out every Eleto in a reverse genocide. Should the assault fail, there is no place of retreat. Thus, he has sent his stalwart first officer, Colonel Shao-Lo, back to Cadre Two with orders to pacify it by any means necessary.

Armed only with her wits and stoic attitude, Shao-Lo confronts the depths of Cadre Two’s depravity. Honniker and Mikato entice her with weaponry so powerful it could swing the tide of combat in Humanity’s favor forever. But in return, they demand she undergo a procedure so extreme, no act of medical cruelty has ever approached it…

Hatred and revenge vie against love and forgiveness in the powerful conclusion, Plasma Rain.
