Stable: Stable
A dystopian space opera that straddles the threads of compassion, perseverance and humanity. Three arks. Two worlds. One chance at survival.
On an Earth with a dying Sun, there are two kinds of people. The Chosen. And the left behind.
We thought it was over. We thought we had lost. A burnt out star left us without enough warmth to thrive, our days as a species were numbered.
But then, then a miracle happened. We received a transmission from an alien civilization that scanned our Sun and knew we needed help. So they threw us a life raft in the form of designs for Space Arks, we built 3. Interstellar capable, with pre-programmed coordinates to bring us to their home world, a place we were told could be called home. 100,000 humans per Ark, chosen to represent the best in us, a last ditch effort to save humanity.
Do I trust these aliens? hell no. but what choice do we have?
Paulson’s the name, Caleb Paulson, you can think of me as the architect of this mission. We’re heading to this alien system with no idea what lies ahead.
As for the billions who were not so fortunate? The ones who did not receive an invitation aboard the arks? We left them to shephard a lawless and desperate earth, poor bastards. This stable of arks is humanity's last chance to endure.

March 3, 2023A space fantasy wrapped around a twilight zone premise. Earth's Sun is dying and aliens have offered to save a lucky few through FTL arks they instruct humanity to build. This book follows several groups of characters caught up in different situations - the captains of the arks, the crew and passengers, as well as those left behind in a wintry Mad Max world.
