The Vortex Blaster

1 rating

Summary

One man against the basic energy of the universe, unleashed in a ravening fury: that's Dr. Neal "Storm" Cloud. Unique is the only way to describe him. Alone in his single-handed battle, he finds that the appalling destructiveness of a loose atomic vortex can be canceled out only by destroying the vortex itself. While not even the most massive and modern of computers could figure out how to destroy a loose vortex, "Storm" Cloud can - and does. To galactic civilization, loose vortices are just one menace among many. It is "Storm's" unique brain - itself a computer with fantastic powers - that enables him to select and direct a duodecaplylatomate bomb with exactly the right energy to snuff each vortex out of existence. The day a runaway vortex exploded in his home was the day "Storm" Cloud became the Vortex Blaster!

The "Lens", a telepathic jewel matched to the ego of its wearer, is the ultimate weapon in the war against the merciless pirate Boskone and his forces of lawlessness.

Alaska and Beyond

Summary

It has just been four months since Alaska Trooper Jack Blake asked Wildlife Trooper Jet Torsen to marry him on the ice of this very remote, wind-blown lake. Only that day was darker. Darker and much colder. If it were not for Jet killing the man trying to take his life, Jack would not be here. And there would not be a wedding today. The pastor is ready to join Jack and Jet in holy matrimony. The guests are already partying. Suddenly, the ceremonies are interrupted by the familiar WHOP, WHOP, WHOP of the Alaska State Trooper helicopter. The pilot pleads for help in stopping a killer who is holding hostages. There are only two troopers for the job. Their marriage will have to wait. Ending the day for a crazed-killer is nothing compared to the challenges Jack and Jet face next. Most people fear grizzly bears-with good reason. Jack Blake has spent enough time in the Bush that he is more comfortable hiking in bear country, than wandering around a city with millions of people. Blake puts that aside to track what the Alaska Attorney General suspects is a rogue fellow trooper on a killing-spree in the Lower 48. Jack meets people and sees things he never knew existed. But, when it comes down to the basics, he uses the same skills in L.A., Phoenix, Salt Lake City, and Idaho as he uses to survive in Alaska. Jet has her own mission. Assigned to investigate the serial killings of young women by a Bush pilot/trophy hunter, Jet goes undercover. She purposely becomes the target. Bush planes, guns, defensive tactics, and sheer willpower. Is that enough for the troopers to survive their intertwining investigations?

Some Will Not Die

Summary

The plague struck, and 90 percent of Earth's population died. Those who survived tried to maintain some sort of civilization...which meant more killing, as it turned out. But bit by bit, generation by generation, people began to succeed. With occasional setbacks...
