I'm no good at blurbs or marketing. So no hard sell here.
It's not really an Alien First Contact Story, book #3 in the series is really the First Contact story.
The Apprentice's Talent.
Now free everywhere except on Amazon (99c)
At Amazon, Apple, Kobo, Barnes & Noble
The Kindle version on Smashwords is "Dual Mobi", you get plainer version on ancient Kindles but from Kindle Keyboard current Firmware you can select Publisher and you see the AZW3/KF8 version that Amazon would supply to newer Kindles.
The epub is epub2. On some readers you might have to put it into a specific folder/directory. The epub version is recommended for Calibre conversion.
If you really want PDF, best to convert the epub version yourself.
The first two books and the fifth are Maisie's career. There is no over-arching plot like the Wheel of Time, but characters and situations develop. Book #3 "The Solar Alliance" (not people selling PV solar panels) is parallel to book #1 and #2 and needs to be read before #5, the third Maisie book, "The Master's Talent". The Starship Chief is an adventure twenty five years before "First Contact" with Earth. There are only eight books in the series. "The Mission's Talent" #7 , was released in July 2024, if ready and polished.
There is no DRM. You can read on any device and share with immediate Family. You may not upload copies.
We recommend download, backups and Calibre, though Smashwords do have a Cloud library and let you download the version you bought any number of times and also give you free access to any later revisions.
