News:  Thanks for the reads and positive feedback!  It keeps coming, and I’m glad people are taking to my writing!  I’m doing my best to keep it entertaining and relevant.  Sometimes that means I’m pulling out hair but I think that means I’m putting the work in…(right?)  Anyways, right around when I release chapter 5 as a free sample on 8/12/’15, I plan to release volume 1 on four platforms.  Kindle, iBooks, smashwords, and B&N.  Kindle will run it for $2.99 and the others for cheaper, not sure by how much.  I picked that price for kindle because lower than that has drastic effects on the marketability/royalty returns.  Not only does it cut your royalties in half, but I have read many articles where readers get put off by the actual price, even though it’s actually cheaper.  This is all tentative right now, and I’ll be looking into it harder as the date gets closer.  Right now, I’m just putting all my draft under as harsh a microscope as I can to make sure it reads smoothly and entertains.  So once again, thanks for the reads and feedback!  To all you writers, I wish you inspired drafting and insightful editing!

Synopsis:  It has been over a thousand years since humanity has left Earth to settle off-world on Echo.  For almost that entire time, an age of darkness and oppression has ensued.  Military and police have merged into the Department of Enforcement.  Government and corporations have merged into the Regime.  Little progress has been made except in the area of weapons technology.  Echo’s only hope resides in one man, Atriya, a bitter and crippled former Enforcer.  But before he can break the cycle of ignorance for Echo, he must first do it within himself.
