The desire to recreate a sailor’s life in a warship among the stars drove the creation of “Seed of Aldebaran,” where the discovery of a killer virus pushes a fearful crew to mutiny. Join him for exotic adventures on remote alien worlds where wonder and danger go hand in hand and individual courage determines triumph or victory. (AA Booth: AA2 – 1)
