    About this ebook

    This short story follows Captain Jason Brightside and his crew of the Royal Space Navy, having made arguably the most significant discovery in the history of space flight, as they make the silent journey from beyond the stars back to Earth aboard the IEC Excelsior. However, all is not as it seems. Their mission potentially in jeopardy just days from its conclusion, Brightside must take matters into his own hands to ensure the safety of his ship...and his crew.

      Terran Homecoming is a work of fiction. Names, characters, places and incidents either are the product of the author’s imagination or are used fictitiously. Any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, events, or locales is entirely coincidental. Oh yeah, especially the undead ones.
