Blog Tour & Giveaway - Refractions of Frozen Time






Book Blurb

"Refractions of Frozen Time" finds the Brightstars, your favorite space-faring family, more separated than ever before. Laren is in the process of being exiled to the galaxy's ultimate security prison onboard an automated spacecraft. Creena, her little brother, Deven, and her mother, Sharra, remain in the Caverns, while Dirck and Win report to the Clique base at Apoca Canyon.

Deven discovers a new crystal which, combined with cristobalite, unlocks the portal between Local and Universal time, offering the potential Creena has been looking for to reunite the family at last. There's one problem, however. Teleporting results in the correct location but the arrival time seems to be random, which has risky implications. Before she can unravel the mystery, however, Integrator commandos find their underground hideout, forcing a harrowing escape loaded with unexpected consequences. Believing they're permanently lost, the dark and lonely days that follow change Dirck forever as fate plays out a hand dealt on Earth years before, ultimately revealing the crystals' incredible secret.

Onboard the Bezarna Express, Laren's efforts to exploit the ship's dirty little secret backfire, putting him more at risk than ever before, his survival dependent on ground intervention. Little does he know that the solution has been with him all along, quietly lurking in a device that operates strictly on the principle "If you don't ask, you don't get." Meanwhile, Augustus Troy, Laren's long-time nemesis, gains more power than ever before coupled with being armed with a weapon capable of wiping out anyone opposed to his despotic goals.

Do the Brightstars have what it takes to survive much less prevail at their final confrontation with the Integrator and his evil proponents? Or will the family’s longed-for reunion take place in another dimension of time and space? Find out in this suspense-laden conclusion to the Star Trails Tetralogy.





Author Bio


Marcha Fox’s passion for science fiction began as a child. Her determination to write in that genre knew no bounds, such that she even went back to college in her 30s to obtain a bachelor’s of science degree in physics, after which she spent over 20 years working at NASA’s Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas. Science and engineering experience notwithstanding, it’s the unexplained mysteries of the cosmos, such as the concept of a universal consciousness, which provide the setting for the Star Trails Tetralogy series. Centered on the Brightstar family who has been torn apart by a storm of political and scientific intrigue, they will stop at nothing until they are reunited.

Under Nameless Stars (Zenn Scarlett #2) by Christian Schoon




























Review:
Under Nameless Stars is the second novel in the Zenn Scarlett series by Christian Schoon.
But before I get the review going, I'm just going to say that I love the cover and the name of this book, okay, now that that's out there. I have to say, sadly I didn't get the chances to read book one before this one. But I didn't really have a hard time picking up from the start of this book. Before I read this book, I was reading other reviews, and found that some were low reviews but didn't let that get in may why of reading this and I can say that I'm glad I did read it. It's well written, strong characters and good plot. I enjoy the story would like to read the others. It has action, humor, interesting creatures, space ships, and so much more. I enjoy stories about space but not all the time, so when I was starting to read this I was so hoping it would be the kind of space story I like and it was. Zenn Scarlett is well written; one of my favorite things about Zenn is that she takes care of alien animals! There are many interesting character. This is a read that I hope to get to read again and learn more about this world that Christian has made.
