    About this ebook

    Welcome to A Future
    It may not be our future, but it is a future we can get behind. Travel the solar system on solar sail ships. Meet hard-working sentients: humans, canines, simians, and octopuses, plying our heliosphere for fun and profit. You won’t find any exploding rockets, evil aliens, laser blasters, or sparking computers, instead, you’ll find hacked comm lines, buried Luna casinos, pirates, dust balls, and weaponized beef jerky. And after your cruise through the Asteroid belt, Mars, and Luna, settle down on Earth for a party in the desert, they’ll bring the Carne Asada burritos, you bring the fun.
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Regular sentients making a living in the void around our Sun: Earth, Luna, Phobos, and Asteroid belt, a few years beyond the next three future pandemics.
    Volume 1 and 2: First, we build Sol's Heliosphere world-view, then we fill it with some interesting characters doing things, and a few that are boring, but we can't all be rock stars.
    Solar Sail ships, nuclear-powered boost-lasers, coal to process Asteroid iron to steel and fish bubbles.
    No: Aliens, Monsters, blasters, pyrotechnic computers, Anti-Grav powered rockets.
    Yes: Lasers, Primates, Canines, Octopus, Space Travel-Solar Sails
    Travel to asteroids, Mail pouch cargo pickup, Nuclear power-driven laser launch engines, Communism, Demokratia, Capitalism, petty theft, poker, jail, and all the good things you find in space on multiple societies living on rocky asteroids.
    A few family reunions, on Earth and the Asteroids, round out the journey.
    Good for any reader interested in Science + Fiction who wants to live in a new world, at least for a while: high school to geriatric
