Greetings Space Opera Fans!

Our September INDIE PICK is Tales from the 23rd Century: Children of Earth by Paul J. Fleming.

And ... I'm having technical difficulties pulling up the proper cover here as the default cover on Goodreads. Here is what it should look like (oooh! Bling! So purdy!)



"When Captain John Maddox and his crew stumble across a colony of lost children, they become the only thing standing between freedom of the solar system and dominance by an artificial intelligence that's out of control.

Attacks against Martian corporate interests within the colonies of the Solar System begin to escalate, leading to the Martian fleet enacting a systematic purge of resistance groups within the Core Worlds who may harbour members of the group calling themselves the 'Children of Earth'.

The crew of the tramp freighter Erstwhile are on the run and soon find themselves drawn into a sequence of events which puts them squarely in the path of a plan to subjugate the people of the Core Worlds, devised and prepared for by the twisted Artificial Intelligence at the heart of the Children of Earth.

With the very freedom of the Core Worlds at stake, Captain Maddox has to deduce the real reason behind the attacks and the AI's desire to return to Earth before it is too late, for both him and the free citizens of the inner worlds..."

Hi folks, apologies for my absence but real life decided to rear its ugly head, forcing me to attend to matters away from the PC and interwebnetthingy for quite some time.

I'm actually posting in here as I am looking actively for some nice people who would provide a review to Amazon in return for a copy of the book. No bribery, it has to be an honest review.

My publisher is handling the selection of requests and distribution so head over to http://www.creativia.org/get-a-free-b... and fill in the form, selecting Children of Earth from the dropdown menu and your preferred format. Don't forget to put your email in there too!!

Hope a few of you can help out a little, if nothing else it provides your grey matter with a little more fodder for nowt ;-)

Best regards
Paul

ps. Any comments or suggestions, please don't hesitate to get in touch, would love to hear from you!
