Suffering from a troublesome spell of artist’s block, Maggie McCalff decides to move in with her old college roommate and plushie dinosaur lover, Violet Kim. The city is more intimidating than she expected, but Maggie quickly settles in and begins looking for work. But then she feels the familiar wax-covered needles of eyes watching her as she waits for the subway. An elderly man comes to her rescue and, after seemingly recognizing her name, invites her to apply for a position at a housing corporation known as The Lion. A short time later, she is invited to a company meeting that shatters her perception of what she thought were merely fairy tales. Now thrown into the world of Sasvatas, Eagnae, and Hunters, Maggie must find a way to not only survive the mountain of rules that come with a human joining a Syndicate but somehow save her newfound friends from an insidious group known as a portentum. Maggie will need to discover her strength in a world revolving around power—and make a decision that could either save hundreds of lives or subject herself, and those she loves the most, to a gruesome death.

A Nine Star Nebula Mystery Adventure -- The Sequel to The Secret of the Tzarista Moon The small resort town of Pine Cove has its little secrets. And one very dangerous one. It takes Patrol Lieutenant JG Intelligence Analyst Vaun Di Ai to discover the dangerous one. It would. The Secrets of Valsummer House, sequel to The Secret of the Tzarista Moon, we once more return to the Nine Star Nebula of The Bright Black Sea in a new mystery adventure featuring Patrol Lieutenant Vaun Di Ai and the spaceer, Rafe d’Mere. Rafe d’Mere is still repairing Pine Cove’s toasters, bots, and appliances, when a possibly illegal robot arrives in a bugged crate arrives, to be collected by an unidentified customer – eleven years after it was shipped. A few days later, a rather mysterious lady arrives in Pine Cove “on (undefined) business.” And between these arrivals, Intelligence Analyst 3, Lt Vaun Di Ai, turns up to tick off some boxes on the case forms, and follow up on a few leads in the Seven Syndicate case. She assures him that she has strict orders to do nothing but tick boxes or risk her career in the Patrol. In her own words, she’s merely an IA3 “on a field trip.” Nothing to worry about. But knowing her, of course he does. With good reason. This Nine Star Nebula Mystery Adventure is an old fashioned “whodunit” story. Together with old and new Pine Cove characters, Di Ai and d’Mere follow a tangled web of clues to discover just how the Seven Syndicate came to own the long lost weapons armory of the mercenary company once known as Bright Dark Solutions. And, maybe, just maybe, discover who is the boss of the Seven Syndicate. C. Litka writes old fashioned stories with modern sensibilities, humor, and romance. He spins tales of adventure, mystery, and travel set in richly imagined worlds, with casts of colorful, fully realized characters. If you seek to escape your everyday life, you will not find better company, nor more wonderful worlds to travel and explore, than in the stories of C. Litka.
