~~~~~~~~~~~~~EDITORIAL REVIEWS:~~~~~~~~~~~~~"McElhaney's story telling is deft, well-paced, and with an ear for conversation" ~ Beacon Journal Book Review
"He brings something refreshing to the '99-cent Kindle' section of Amazon." Associated Content Review 12/2011
Over 50,000 copies of his books have been downloaded worldwide!~~~~~~~~~~~~~BOOK DESCRIPTION:~~~~~~~~~~~~~In McElhaney’s first book of the groundbreaking Mystic Saga “Indentured”, the Colonial Establishment Cruiser “Pioneer” discovered a major fault in their experimental Jump Drive. Though it served its purpose by sending the ship across 24 light years in what felt like a mere instant, its failures were a little less noticeable.
Now, in his second book of bestselling serial, the USSC sends a follow-up ship to the Beta-Hydri system in order to investigate what happened to their missing cruiser, the USSC Pioneer. The investigation brings them to a planet named Legacy where an Earth colony appears to have been thriving for hundreds of years – much longer than the few decades they expected if it indeed was the Pioneer Colony. To add to the confusion, the colony appears to have forgotten their roots over the centuries, so the shuttles of the USSC Foothold aren’t welcomed in the way they’d expect.
The crew of the Foothold is about to learn that a lot can change when you’re forced to adapt to a different environment. But could the changes involve the development of the unusual electrical defense mechanism of the Mystics? Why are there two human civilizations on Legacy and why does one group of people have the ability to throw lightning?
A serial novel published in the tradition of 50's sci-fi pulp brought to you by the Xulon Award winning author of "Mommy's Choice," "One Crazy Summer," "Indentured," and "Saving Brooksie." Now Scott McElhaney is making all his novels available to Kindle readers at the very accessible price of only 99 cents. Book three of the Mystic Saga will follow in July 2012!
