The Novan War has just begun. All that stands between humanity and utter destruction are the ships of the Sol Coalition Defense Fleet.
The only problem? None of those ships are equipped with the all-important Quantum Space Drive which allows humanity to travel between planets and stars at a reasonable scale of time. The Drive needs Florivan QSD Engineers to run it, and Florivans are pacifists. Their Council of Elders has never allowed service on military vessels.
The Fleet can do little more than sit at the edges of the Coalition's seven member systems and wait for the Novans to attack.
Celadon Toreval is the Youngest of the Florivan Council of Elders. If anyone can come to Fleet Admiral Marvin's aid and help her save her people-and theirs-it's them.
Celadon, though, has their own reasons to get involved...
The time to act has come. Celadon: A Strange Space(TM) Novel received the 2023 Richard Wright Literary Award for Best Adult Science Fiction/Fantasy from the Memphis Public Libraries. It is the second installment in Katie Silverwings' award-winning Strange Space(TM) Adventures series of optimistic science fiction stories. Featuring friendly aliens, the occasional talking bird, and a future in which people are accepted for who they are, the world of Strange Space(TM) offers tales of adventure and friendship for readers of all ages.1 different editions
