Titanian Fury

By Linda Jordan

Cassandra and the other villagers on the planet, Titania 37, barely scrape out a living. They depend on each other to remain alive on the sparsely populated planet. The native residents live among them peacefully, trading and thriving.

The Caledonians show up and impose martial law. They plan to mine what they need quickly and get off this hellhole.

Titania possesses a few life-changing secrets.

A thought-provoking and imaginative story for those who thirst for solid worldbuilding and complex characters in their science fiction.
