Three years in the making, Al Clark-Gravity (Book Six in the Al Clark Series) is finally finished. This was a tough book to complete and has haunted me for a long time. It has it all: New Characters, Space Adventure, Rebel Space Stations, Alien Contact, A Moon of Mars, Earth, Colonization, Demanding Artificial Intelligence, and New Technology. I have to admit I am breathing a sigh of relief.

Here is a small sample to get you going.

Pyper McGuire is a space station rat who knows her cage better than anyone. She hides
in the shadows, roaming the immense structure at will. Like a fleeting ghost she is invisible to the
bulk of the station’s residents.
She is a young girl who sleeps where it is convenient, in places where few people travel,
dependent on the individual circumstance. Her room and board is stolen from under their noses
and she feels no guilt.
Pyper had parents once, a long time ago. After their deaths in a freak accident she lived for
a time with her uncle, who was a mostly absent maintenance technician. Maintaining a sprawling
space station is very time intensive. He had little time left for her. He died a year ago, leaving
Pyper alone and completely unrestrained. Over time, she learned to be self-sufficient.
She is a scrawny seventeen year old girl who looks fifteen, with wise auburn eyes and dark
hair kept short to simplify life on the run. She appears tall for her age, until you discover her true
number of years, which she does not divulge readily. Her youthful appearance is both an advantage
and a curse. Because she appears so young, she is able to get away with things an older teenager
cannot. On the other hand, no one takes her seriously which she often finds frustrating.
On this particular evening she is investigating a rumor percolating through the facility. A
new ship has docked at the outskirts of the sprawling space station under a suspicious cloud of
secrecy. The rumor speaks of a slender scout ship which landed upright on three graceful fins, an
increasingly rare configuration ill-suited for many modern applications. The mystery is too
appealing for her to ignore. She had to investigate.
